[PATCH 4.15 066/163] x86/entry/64: Fix paranoid_entry() frame pointer warning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b3ccefaed922529e6a67de7b30af5aa38c76ace9 upstream.

With the following commit:

  f09d160992d1 ("x86/entry/64: Get rid of the ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK and SAVE_AND_CLEAR_REGS macros")

... one of my suggested improvements triggered a frame pointer warning:

  arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o: warning: objtool: paranoid_entry()+0x11: call without frame pointer save/setup

The warning is correct for the build-time code, but it's actually not
relevant at runtime because of paravirt patching.  The paravirt swapgs
call gets replaced with either a SWAPGS instruction or NOPs at runtime.

Go back to the previous behavior by removing the ELF function annotation
for paranoid_entry() and adding an unwind hint, which effectively
silences the warning.
