Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] bpf: Add bpf_has_frame_pointer()
Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2025 19:32:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fd2bc5b4e261a680774b28f6100509fd5ebad2f0.1764818927.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1764818927.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>
Introduce a bpf_has_frame_pointer() helper that unwinders can call to
determine whether a given instruction pointer is within the valid frame
pointer region of a BPF JIT program or trampoline (i.e., after the
prologue, before the epilogue).
This will enable livepatch (with the ORC unwinder) to reliably unwind
through BPF JIT frames.
