When unwind instruction is 0xb2,the subsequent instructions
are uleb128 bytes.
For now,it uses only the first uleb128 byte in code.
For vsp increments of 0x204~0x400,use one uleb128 byte like below:
0xc06a00e4 <unwind_test_work>: 0x80b27fac
Compact model index: 0
0xb2 0x7f vsp = vsp + 1024
0xac pop {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r14}
For vsp increments larger than 0x400,use two uleb128 bytes like below:
0xc06a00e4 <unwind_test_work>: @0xc0cc9e0c
Compact model index: 1
0xb2 0x81 0x01 vsp = vsp + 1032
0xac pop {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r14}
The unwind works well since the decoded uleb128 byte is also 0x81.
For vsp increments larger than 0x600,use two uleb128 bytes like below:
0xc06a00e4 <unwind_test_work>: @0xc0cc9e0c
Compact model index: 1
0xb2 0x81 0x02 vsp = vsp + 1544
0xac pop {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r14}
In this case,the decoded uleb128 result is 0x101(vsp=0x204+(0x101<<2)).
While the uleb128 used in code is 0x81(vsp=0x204+(0x81<<2)).
The unwind aborts at this frame since it gets incorrect vsp.
To fix this,add uleb128 decode to cover all the above case.

Commit b6506981f8 ("ARM: unwind: support unwinding across multiple
stacks") updated the logic in the ARM unwinder to widen the bounds
within which SP is assumed to be valid, in order to allow the unwind to
traverse from the IRQ stack to the task stack. This is necessary, as
otherwise, unwinds started from the IRQ stack would terminate in the IRQ
exception handler, making stacktraces substantially less useful.
This turns out to be a mistake, as it breaks asynchronous unwinding
across exceptions, when the exception is taken before the stack frame is
consistent with the unwind info. For instance, in the following
backtrace:
...
generic_handle_arch_irq from call_with_stack+0x18/0x20
call_with_stack from __irq_svc+0x80/0x98
Exception stack(0xc7093e20 to 0xc7093e68)
3e20: b6a94a88 c7093ea0 00000008 00000000 c7093ea0 b7e127d0 00000051 c9220000

3e60: 20070013 ffffffff
__irq_svc from __copy_to_user_std+0x20/0x378
...
we need to apply the following unwind directives:
0xc099720c <__copy_to_user_std+0x1c>: @0xc295d1d4
Compact model index: 1
0x9b vsp = r11
0xb1 0x0d pop {r0, r2, r3}
0x84 0x81 pop {r4, r11, r14}
0xb0 finish
which tell us to switch to the frame pointer register R11 and proceed
with the unwind from that. However, having been interrupted 0x20 bytes
into the function:
c09971f0 <__copy_to_user_std>:
c09971f0: e59f3350 ldr r3, [pc, #848]
c09971f4: e243c001 sub ip, r3, #1
c09971f8: e05cc000 subs ip, ip, r0
c09971fc: 228cc001 addcs ip, ip, #1
c0997200: 205cc002 subscs ip, ip, r2
c0997204: 33a00000 movcc r0, #0

c099720c: e3a03000 mov r3, #0
c0997210: e92d481d push {r0, r2, r3, r4, fp, lr}
c0997214: e1a0b00d mov fp, sp
c0997218: e2522004 subs r2, r2, #4
the value for R11 recovered from the previous frame (__irq_svc) will be
a snapshot of its value before the exception was taken (0x0002b000),
which occurred at address __copy_to_user_std+0x20 (0xc0997210), when R11
had not been assigned its value yet.
This means we can never assume that the SP values recovered from the
stack or from the frame pointer are ever safe to use, given the need to
do asynchronous unwinding, and the only robust approach is to revert to
the previous approach, which is to derive bounds for SP based on the
initial value, and never update them.
We can make an exception, though: now that the IRQ stack switch is
guaranteed to occur in call_with_stack(), we can implement a special
case for this function, and use a different set of bounds based on the
knowledge that it will always unwind from R11 rather than SP. As
call_with_stack() is a hand-rolled assembly routine, this is guaranteed
to remain that way.
So let's do a partial revert of b6506981f8, and drop all manipulations
for sp_low and sp_high based on the information collected during the
unwind itself. To support call_with_stack(), set sp_low and sp_high
explicitly to values derived from R11 when we unwind that function.
The only downside is that, while unwinding an overflow of the vmap'ed
stack will work fine as before, we will no longer be able to produce a
backtrace that unwinds the overflow stack itself across the exception
that was raised due to the faulting access to the guard region. However,
this only affects exceptions caused by problems in the stack overflow
handling code itself, in which case the remaining backtrace is not that
relevant.

After simplifying the stack switch code in the IRQ exception handler by
deferring the actual stack switch to call_with_stack(), we no longer
need to special case the way we dump the exception stack, since it will
always be at the top of whichever stack was active when the exception
was taken.
So revert this special handling for the ARM unwinder.

When e.g. a WARN_ON() is encountered, we attempt to unwind the current
thread. To do this, we set frame.pc to unwind_backtrace, which means it
points at the beginning of the function. However, the rest of the state
is initialised from within the function, which means the function
prologue has already been run.
This can be confusing, and with a recent patch from Ard, can result in
the unwinder misbehaving if we want to be strict about the PC value.
If we correctly initialise the state so it is self-consistent (in other
words, set frame.pc to the location we are initialising it) then we
eliminate this confusion, and avoid possible future issues.

Corentin reports that since commit 538b9265c0 ("ARM: unwind: track
location of LR value in stack frame"), numerous spurious warnings are
emitted into the kernel log:
[ 0.000000] unwind: Index not found c0f0c440
[ 0.000000] unwind: Index not found 00000000
[ 0.000000] unwind: Index not found c0f0c440
[ 0.000000] unwind: Index not found 00000000
This is due to the fact that the commit in question removes a check
whether the PC value in the unwound frame is actually a kernel text
address, on the assumption that such an address will not be associated
with valid unwind data to begin with, which is checked right after.
The reason for removing this check was that unwind_frame() will be
called by the ftrace graph tracer code, which means that it can no
longer be safely instrumented itself, or any code that it calls, as it
could cause infinite recursion.
In order to prevent the spurious diagnostics, let's add back the call to
kernel_text_address(), but this time, only call it if no unwind data
could be found for the address in question. This is more efficient for
the common successful case, and should avoid any unintended recursion,
considering that kernel_text_address() will only be called if no unwind
data was found.

The ftrace graph tracer needs to override the return address of an
instrumented function, in order to install a hook that gets invoked when
the function returns again.
Currently, we only support this when building for ARM using GCC with
frame pointers, as in this case, it is guaranteed that the function will
reload LR from [FP, #-4] in all cases, and we can simply pass that
address to the ftrace code.
In order to support this for configurations that rely on the EABI
unwinder, such as Thumb2 builds, make the unwinder keep track of the
address from which LR was unwound, permitting ftrace to make use of this
in a subsequent patch.
Drop the call to is_kernel_text_address(), which is problematic in terms
of ftrace recursion, given that it may be instrumented itself. The call
is redundant anyway, as no unwind directives will be found unless the PC
points to memory that is known to contain executable code.

Wire up the generic support for managing task stack allocations via vmalloc,
and implement the entry code that detects whether we faulted because of a
stack overrun (or future stack overrun caused by pushing the pt_regs array)
While this adds a fair amount of tricky entry asm code, it should be
noted that it only adds a TST + branch to the svc_entry path. The code
implementing the non-trivial handling of the overflow stack is emitted
out-of-line into the .text section.
Since on ARM, we rely on do_translation_fault() to keep PMD level page
table entries that cover the vmalloc region up to date, we need to
ensure that we don't hit such a stale PMD entry when accessing the
stack. So we do a dummy read from the new stack while still running from
the old one on the context switch path, and bump the vmalloc_seq counter
when PMD level entries in the vmalloc range are modified, so that the MM
switch fetches the latest version of the entries.
Note that we need to increase the per-mode stack by 1 word, to gain some
space to stash a GPR until we know it is safe to touch the stack.
However, due to the cacheline alignment of the struct, this does not
actually increase the memory footprint of the struct stack array at all.

When unwinding the stack from a stack overflow, we are likely to start
from a stack push instruction, given that this is the most common way to
grow the stack for compiler emitted code. This push instruction rarely
appears anywhere else than at offset 0x0 of the function, and if it
doesn't, the compiler tends to split up the unwind annotations, given
that the stack frame layout is apparently not the same throughout the
function.
This means that, in the general case, if the frame's PC points at the
first instruction covered by a certain unwind entry, there is no way the
stack frame that the unwind entry describes could have been created yet,
and so we are still on the stack frame of the caller in that case. So
treat this as a special case, and return with the new PC taken from the
frame's LR, without applying the unwind transformations to the virtual
register set.
This permits us to unwind the call stack on stack overflow when the
overflow was caused by a stack push on function entry.

The existing code that dumps the contents of the pt_regs structure
passed to __entry routines does so while unwinding the callee frame, and
dereferences the stack pointer as a struct pt_regs*. This will no longer
work when we enable support for IRQ or overflow stacks, because the
struct pt_regs may live on the task stack, while we are executing from
another stack.
The unwinder has access to this information, but only while unwinding
the calling frame. So let's combine the exception stack dumping code
with the handling of the calling frame as well. By printing it before
dumping the caller/callee addresses, the output order is preserved.

Those two cases are handled by the unwind_exec_pop_r4_to_rN function which checks whether the 4th bit is set and does r14 popping.
However, up until now it has been checking whether the 8th bit was set (mask & 0x80) instead of the 4th (mask & 0x8), a simple to make typo but this meant that we were always popping r14 even if we had the former opcode.

The linker places the unwind tables in readonly sections. So when using
an XIP kernel these are located in ROM and cannot be modified.
For that reason the current approach to convert the relative offsets in
the unwind index to absolute addresses early in the boot process doesn't
work with XIP.
The offsets in the unwind index section are signed 31 bit numbers and
the structs are sorted by this offset. So it first has offsets between
0x40000000 and 0x7fffffff (i.e. the negative offsets) and then offsets
between 0x00000000 and 0x3fffffff. When seperating these two blocks the
numbers are sorted even when interpreting the offsets as unsigned longs.
So determine the first non-negative entry once and track that using the
new origin pointer. The actual bisection can then use a plain unsigned
long comparison. The only thing that makes the new bisection more
complicated is that the offsets are relative to their position in the
index section, so the key to search needs to be adapted accordingly in
each step.
Moreover several consts are added to catch future writes and rename the
member "addr" of struct unwind_idx to "addr_offset" to better match the
new semantic. (This has the additional benefit of breaking eventual
users at compile time to make them aware of the change.)
In my tests the new algorithm was a tad faster than the original and has
the additional upside of not needing the initial conversion and so saves
some boot time and it's possible to unwind even earlier.

to be cleaned up and tested via using their respective configs.

When unwinding stack frames we must take care not to unwind
areas of memory that lie outside of the known extent of the stack.
This patch fixes an incorrect calculation of the stack base where
THREAD_SIZE is added to the stack pointer after it has already
been aligned to this value. Since the ALIGN macro performs this
addition internally, we end up overshooting the base by 8k.

With several sections per module, and dozens of modules, the
searches down the linked list of sections would dominate the
lookup time, dwarfing any savings from the binary search
within the section.
A simple move-to-front optimisation exploits the commonality
of the code paths taken, and in simple real-world tests reduces
the number of steps in the search to barely more than 1.

The check for compiler which is supposed to miscompile unwind tables
clearly has nothing to do with sparse (which does not define necessary
macros anyway), so simply silence it.

If PC points outside kernel text, start printing the backtrace at LR
instead.

ARM unwind is known to compile only with EABI and not-buggy compilers.
The problem is not the unwinding information but the -fno-frame-pointer
option added as a result of !CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. Now we check the
compiler and raise a #warning in case of wrong compiler.

There are situations where the unwinder goes beyond stack boundaries and
unwinds random data. This patch moves the stack boundaries check after
the unwind_exec_insn() call and adds an extra check for possible
infinite loops (like "mov pc, lr" with pc == lr).
The patch also fixes a bug in the unwind instructions interpreter. The
0xb0 instruction can only set PC to LR if this wasn't already set by
a previous instruction (this is used on exceptions taken while in kernel
mode where svc_entry is annotated with ".save {r0 - pc}").

This patch adds the main functionality for parsing the stack unwinding
information generated by the ARM EABI toolchains. The unwinding
information consists of an index with a pair of words per function and a
table with unwinding instructions. For more information, see "Exception
Handling ABI for the ARM Architecture" at:
