Subject: [PATCH 0/5] arm: LLVMLinux: Add current_stack_pointer
Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2013 17:28:06 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1378502899-1241-1-git-send-email-behanw@converseincode.com> (raw)
From: Behan Webster <behanw@converseincode.com>
The LLVMLinux Project is working to be able to build the Linux kernel with
clang/LLVM. With the release of LLVM 3.3 clang is now able to compile the Linux
kernel with a number of small patches (available from the LLVMLinux git repo).
These patches add a macro to get the current stack pointer which allows for a
single place in which to do so with ASM. Before this named registers (a gcc
extension) was used to get the stack pointer. Using ASM is a more portable way
of getting the stack pointer which works with both gcc and clang. This macro
is of the same name used in the X86 arch.
Behan Webster (5):
arm: LLVMLinux: Add current_stack_pointer macro for ARM
arm: LLVMLinux: use current_stack_pointer for percpu
arm: LLVMLinux: Use current_stack_pointer for return_address
arm: LLVMLinux: Use current_stack_pointer in save_stack_trace_tsk
arm: LLVMLinux: Use current_stack_pointer in unwind_backtrace
