Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] x86/32: Remove schedule_tail_wrapper()
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2023 16:42:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230622144321.561264520@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230622144218.860926475@infradead.org>
From: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com>
The unwinder expects a return address at the very top of the kernel
stack just below pt_regs and before any stack frame is created. Instead
of calling a wrapper, set up a return address as if ret_from_fork()
was called from the syscall entry code.
