[PATCH] ARM: Add unwinding support for memset function
From: linyongting
Date: Sun Oct 26 2014 - 10:12:27 EST
From: Lin Yongting <linyongting@xxxxxxxxx>
The memset function never had unwinding annotations added.
Currently, when accessing NULL pointer by memset occurs the
backtrace shown will stop at memset or some completely unrelated
function. Add unwinding annotations in hopes of getting a more
useful backtrace when accessing NULL pointer by memset, kprobe
or interrupt.
