Here is one example of inline asm with call frame info: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/sigaction.c;h=be058bac436d1cc9794b2b03107676ed99f6b872;hb=HEAD -- H.J. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe live-patching" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
