| H A D | thread-stack.c | 1f35cd65 Wed Jan 09 03:18:34 CST 2019 Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> perf thread-stack: Improve thread_stack__no_call_return()
Improve thread_stack__no_call_return() to better handle 'returns' that
do not match the stack i.e. 'no call'. See code comments for details.
The example below shows how retpolines are affected:
Example:
$ cat simple-retpoline.c
__attribute__((noinline)) int bar(void)
{
return -1;
}
int foo(void)
{
return bar() + 1;
}
__attribute__((indirect_branch("thunk"))) int main()
{
int (*volatile fn)(void) = foo;
fn();
return fn();
}
$ gcc -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -O2 -o simple-retpoline simple-retpoline.c
$ objdump -d simple-retpoline
