Subject: [PATCH v2] objtool/x86: add missing embedded_insn check
Date: Sat, 28 Oct 2023 18:41:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231028184131.2103810-1-jsperbeck@google.com> (raw)
When dbf460087755 ("objtool/x86: Fixup frame-pointer vs rethunk")
was backported to some stable branches, the check for dest->embedded_insn
in is_special_call() was missed. The result is that the warning it
was intended to suppress still appears. For example on 6.1 (on kernels
before 6.1, the '-s' argument would instead be 'check'):
$ tools/objtool/objtool -s arch/x86/lib/retpoline.o
arch/x86/lib/retpoline.o: warning: objtool: srso_untrain_ret+0xd:
call without frame pointer save/setup
With this patch, the warning is correctly suppressed, and the
kernel still passes the normal Google kernel developer tests.

I think 6.1.y, 5.15.y, and 5.10.y are the LTS branches missing the
bit of code that this patch re-adds.
Changes from v1 to v2:
