Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 1/5] unwind_user: Enable arch-specific signal frame unwinders
Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2026 16:33:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260127153331.2902504-2-jremus@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260127153331.2902504-1-jremus@linux.ibm.com>
Add a signal flag to struct unwind_user_frame, which indicates whether
the frame is a signal frame. If set unwind_user_common_next() uses an
architecture-specific unwind_user_signal_next() implementation to
unwind the frame.
user unwind sframe will make use of the signal flag in a subsequent
commit.
