<id>urn:sha1:81b67439d147677d844d492fcbd03712ea438f42</id>
<content type='text'>
The following execution path is possible:

  fsnotify()
    [ realign the stack and store previous SP in R10 ]
    &lt;IRQ&gt;
      [ only IRET regs saved ]
      common_interrupt()
        interrupt_entry()
	  &lt;NMI&gt;
	    [ full pt_regs saved ]
	    ...
	    [ unwind stack ]

When the unwinder goes through the NMI and the IRQ on the stack, and
then sees fsnotify(), it doesn't have access to the value of R10,
because it only has the five IRET registers.  So the unwind stops
prematurely.

However, because the interrupt_entry() code is careful not to clobber
R10 before saving the full regs, the unwinder should be able to read R10
from the previously saved full pt_regs associated with the NMI.

Handle this case properly.  When encountering an IRET regs frame
immediately after a full pt_regs frame, use the pt_regs as a backup
which can be used to get the C register values.

Also, note that a call frame resets the 'prev_regs' value, because a
function is free to clobber the registers.  For this fix to work, the
IRET and full regs frames must be adjacent, with no FUNC frames in
between.  So replace the FUNC hint in interrupt_entry() with an
IRET_REGS hint.

The LEAQ instruction in rewind_stack_do_exit() moves the stack pointer
directly below the pt_regs at the top of the task stack before calling
do_exit(). Tell the unwinder to expect pt_regs.

<id>urn:sha1:96c64806b4bf35f5edb465cafa6cec490e424a30</id>
<content type='text'>
UNWIND_HINT_FUNC has some limitations: specifically, it doesn't reset
all the registers to undefined.  This causes objtool to get confused
about the RBP push in __switch_to_asm(), resulting in bad ORC data.

While __switch_to_asm() does do some stack magic, it's otherwise a
normal callable-from-C function, so just annotate it as a function,
which makes objtool happy and allows it to produces the correct hints
automatically.

<content type='text'>
In swapgs_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode, after the stack is
switched to the trampoline stack, the existing UNWIND_HINT_REGS hint is
no longer valid, which can result in the following ORC unwinder warning:

  WARNING: can't dereference registers at 000000003aeb0cdd for ip swapgs_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode+0x93/0xa0

For full correctness, we could try to add complicated unwind hints so
the unwinder could continue to find the registers, but when when it's
this close to kernel exit, unwind hints aren't really needed anymore and
it's fine to just use an empty hint which tells the unwinder to stop.

For consistency, also move the UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY in
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe to a similar location.

<content type='text'>
The PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro zeroes each register immediately after
pushing it.  If an NMI or exception hits after a register is cleared,
but before the UNWIND_HINT_REGS annotation, the ORC unwinder will
wrongly think the previous value of the register was zero.  This can
confuse the unwinding process and cause it to exit early.

Because ORC is simpler than DWARF, there are a limited number of unwind
annotation states, so it's not possible to add an individual unwind hint
after each push/clear combination.  Instead, the register clearing
instructions need to be consolidated and moved to after the
UNWIND_HINT_REGS annotation.

<title>sparc,x86: vdso: remove meaningless undefining CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING</title>

<id>urn:sha1:12a5b00a5366467e95a25f55da751794e5fe6788</id>
<content type='text'>
The code, #undef CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, is not working as expected
because &lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; is parsed before vclock_gettime.c since
28128c61e08e ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid missed struct
attributes").

Since then, &lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; is included really early by using the
'-include' option.  So, you cannot negate the decision of
&lt;linux/compiler_types.h&gt; in this way.

You can confirm it by checking the pre-processed code, like this:

  $ make arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.i

There is no difference with/without CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

It is about two years since 28128c61e08e.  Nobody has reported a problem
(or, nobody has even noticed the fact that this code is not working).

It is ugly and unreliable to attempt to undefine a CONFIG option from C
files, and anyway the inlining heuristic is up to the compiler.

Just remove the broken code.
