Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 15/16] PREREQ: x86/vdso: Enable sframe generation in VDSO
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2025 18:35:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250710163522.3195293-16-jremus@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250710163522.3195293-1-jremus@linux.ibm.com>
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>
Enable sframe generation in the VDSO library so kernel and user space
can unwind through it.
Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>

Notes (jremus):
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250425024023.173709192@goodmis.org/
This is a prerequisite for patch "s390/vdso: Enable SFrame generation in
vDSO" to actually generate SFrame in vDSO, as it introduces config
option CONFIG_AS_SFRAME.
