x86/ftrace: Fix ebp in ftrace_regs_caller that screws up unwinder Fengguang Wu's zero day bot triggered a stack unwinder dump. This can be easily triggered when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS is enabled and -mfentry is in use on x86_32. ># cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing ># echo 'p:schedule schedule' > kprobe_events ># echo stacktrace > events/kprobes/schedule/trigger This is because the code that implemented fentry in the ftrace_regs_caller tried to use the least amount of #ifdefs, and modified ebp when CC_USE_FENTRY was defined to point to the parent ip as it does when CC_USE_FENTRY is not defined. But when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS is set, it corrupts the ebp register for this frame while doing the tracing. NOTE, it does not corrupt ebp in any other way. It is just a bad frame pointer when calling into the tracing infrastructure. The original ebp is restored before returning from the fentry call. But if a stack trace is performed inside the tracing, the unwinder will notice the bad ebp. Instead of toying with ebp with CC_USING_FENTRY, just slap the parent ip into the second parameter (%edx), and have an #else that does it the original way. The unwinder will unfortunately miss the function being traced, as the stack frame is not set up yet for it, as it is for x86_64. But fixing that is a bit more complex and did not work before anyway. This has been tested with and without FRAME_POINTERS being set while using -mfentry, as well as using an older compiler that uses mcount.
