Subject: [Patch v3 1/4] x86/stack: Refactor show_trace()
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 19:34:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1384803264-1093-2-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1384803264-1093-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

Before, show_trace() had two implementations depending on
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.  Some parts were common, while the loops to wander up
the stack were different.

The version aided by frame pointers had a special case for function calls on
wild function pointers, but this doesn't need to be a special case.

After the refactoring, there are now two implementations of __show_trace()
which differ depending on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, and a single show_trace()
with the common bits, including the logic for wild function pointers.
