[PATCH] KVM: SVM: Create stack frames in VMRUN wrappers to make objtool happy

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Dec 30 2021 - 16:39:11 EST


Add "mov %rSP, %rBP" to the prologs of the VMRUN assembly wrappers to
create proper stack frames for the sole purpose of eliminating objtool
warnings about using rBP as a scratch register. When the kernel is built
with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y, i.e. frame pointers are used to unwind,
objtool is used to validate that assembly functions don't mess with rBP
as that can cause callers to be skipped by the unwinder. SVM needs to
save/restore rBP across VMRUN, which triggers a false positive as objtool
thinks the PUSP+POP without creating a stack frame is indicative of using
rBP as a scratch register.

SVM's VMRUN wrappers don't truly need a stack frame as they don't make
any function calls of their own (ignoring the CALLs emitted to fill the
RSB), i.e. won't break unwinding, but the extra MOV is basically free and
eliminating objtool warning allows for a completely clean build with many
configs.

warning: objtool: __svm_vcpu_run()+0xde: BP used as a scratch register
warning: objtool: __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run()+0x46: BP used as a scratch register
