2018-06-21x86/unwind/orc: Detect the end of the stackJosh Poimboeuf
The existing UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY annotations happen to be good indicators of where entry code calls into C code for the first time. So also use them to mark the end of the stack for the ORC unwinder. Use that information to set unwind->error if the ORC unwinder doesn't unwind all the way to the end. This will be needed for enabling HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE for the ORC unwinder so we can use it with the livepatch consistency model. Thanks to Jiri Slaby for teaching the ORCs about the unwind hints.

2018-01-30objtool: Warn on stripped section symbolJosh Poimboeuf
With the following fix: 2a0098d70640 ("objtool: Fix seg fault with gold linker") ... a seg fault was avoided, but the original seg fault condition in objtool wasn't fixed. Replace the seg fault with an error message.

2017-12-30objtool: Fix seg fault with clang-compiled objectsSimon Ser
Fix a seg fault which happens when an input file provided to 'objtool orc generate' doesn't have a '.shstrtab' section (for instance, object files produced by clang don't have this section).

2017-07-18objtool: Add ORC unwind table generationJosh Poimboeuf
Now that objtool knows the states of all registers on the stack for each instruction, it's straightforward to generate debuginfo for an unwinder to use. Instead of generating DWARF, generate a new format called ORC, which is more suitable for an in-kernel unwinder. See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for a more detailed description of this new debuginfo format and why it's preferable to DWARF.
