Summary

This same check is used on other architectures. Previously this would
permit a stack frame to unwind into any arbitrary kernel address
(including unmapped addresses).

This was changed in rS333570 as unwind_frame could be probed by the FBT provider. It might be enough to exclude it from being probed in fbt_provide_module_function

I think that would be fine. Alternately, perhaps unwind_frame() could move to stack.h?

Hmm, risc-v would need the same approach as I have made it also use unwind_frame. Do you have a preference Mark on how to fix it?

I think I prefer to explicitly exclude unwind_frame() from FBT by modifying fbt_provide_module_function() for the relevant arches. All of the solutions (keep the code as-is, make unwind_frame() inlinable, exclude unwind_frame() from FBT) are kind of fragile, but modifying FBT at least makes it easy to identify these problematic functions.

  • Add unwind_frame to fbt_excluded.
