[PATCH v6 09/13] arm64: perf: strip PAC when unwinding userspace

From: Kristina Martsenko
Date: Fri Dec 07 2018 - 13:40:39 EST


From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@xxxxxxx>

When the kernel is unwinding userspace callchains, we can't expect that
the userspace consumer of these callchains has the data necessary to
strip the PAC from the stored LR.

This patch has the kernel strip the PAC from user stackframes when the
in-kernel unwinder is used. This only affects the LR value, and not the
FP.

This only affects the in-kernel unwinder. When userspace performs
unwinding, it is up to userspace to strip PACs as necessary (which can
be determined from DWARF information).
