x86/ftrace: Add stack frame pointer to ftrace_caller
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The function hook ftrace_caller does not create its own stack frame, and
this causes the ftrace stack trace to miss the first function when doing
stack traces.

 # echo schedule:stacktrace > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

Before:
         <idle>-0     [002] .N..    29.865807: <stack trace>
 => cpu_startup_entry
 => start_secondary
 => startup_32_smp
           <...>-7     [001] ....    29.866509: <stack trace>
 => kthread
 => ret_from_fork
           <...>-1     [000] ....    29.865377: <stack trace>
 => poll_schedule_timeout
 => do_select
 => core_sys_select

 => do_fast_syscall_32
