[PATCH v14 18/24] x86/asm/entry: Create stack frames in thunk functions

Show all headers | View raw

Thunk functions are callable non-leaf functions that don't honor
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, which can result in bad stack traces.  Also they
aren't annotated as ELF callable functions which can confuse tooling.

Create stack frames for them when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled and
add the ELF function type.
