Subject: [PATCH v14 17/19] unwind_user/sframe: Separate reading of FRE from reading of FRE data words
Date: Tue, 5 May 2026 14:17:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505121718.3572346-18-jremus@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260505121718.3572346-1-jremus@linux.ibm.com>
__find_fre() performs linear search for a matching SFrame FRE for a
given IP. For that purpose it uses __read_fre(), which reads the whole
FRE. That is the variable-size FRE structure as well as the trailing
variable-length array of variable-size data words. For the search logic
to skip over the FRE it would be sufficient to read the variable-size
FRE structure only, which includes the count and size of data words.
Add fields to struct sframe_fre_internal to store the FRE data word's
address, count, and size. Change __read_fre() to read the variable-
size FRE structure only and populate those new fields. Change
__read_fre_datawords() to use those new fields. Change __find_fre()
to use __read_fre_datawords() to read the FRE data words only after a
matching FRE has been found. Introduce safe_read_fre_datawords() and
use it in sframe_validate_section() to validate that the FRE data words.

Notes (jremus):
Changes in v14:
- Adjust to rename of SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_* and
__read_default_fre_datawords().
- Update function name in debug message.
