[PATCH v14 13/24] x86/xen: Add xen_cpuid() and xen_setup_gdt() to stacktool whitelists
From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Wed Oct 21 2015 - 12:18:31 EST
stacktool reports the following false positive warnings:
stacktool: arch/x86/xen/enlighten.o: xen_cpuid()+0x41: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x108
stacktool: arch/x86/xen/enlighten.o: xen_setup_gdt.constprop.23()+0x2e: kernel entry/exit from callable instruction
The first warning is due to xen_cpuid()'s use of XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX to
insert some fake instructions which stacktool doesn't know how to
decode.
The second warning is due to xen_setup_gdt()'s use of an lret
instruction, which stacktool normally doesn't allow in callable
functions. But this seems to be a valid use of the instruction.
Add both functions to the stacktool whitelist.
