From b746046238bb99b8f703c79f6d95357428fb6476 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2020 10:15:51 +0200 Subject: objtool: Better handle IRET Teach objtool a little more about IRET so that we can avoid using the SAVE/RESTORE annotation. In particular, make the weird corner case in insn->restore go away. The purpose of that corner case is to deal with the fact that UNWIND_HINT_RESTORE lands on the instruction after IRET, but that instruction can end up being outside the basic block, consider: if (cond) sync_core() foo(); Then the hint will land on foo(), and we'll encounter the restore hint without ever having seen the save hint. By teaching objtool about the arch specific exception frame size, and assuming that any IRET in an STT_FUNC symbol is an exception frame sized POP, we can remove the use of save/restore hints for this code.
