Subject: [PATCH v4 4/8] sframe: Provide PC lookup for vmlinux .sframe section
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 22:51:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421225200.1198447-5-dylanbhatch@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260421225200.1198447-1-dylanbhatch@google.com>
With SFRAME_UNWINDER, read in the .sframe section at boot. This provides
unwind data as an alternative/supplement to frame pointer-based
unwinding.
