Hi All,
Since 3193c0836f20 ("bpf: Disable GCC -fgcse optimization for ___bpf_prog_run()"),
We have got the following warning,
kernel/bpf/core.o: warning: objtool: ___bpf_prog_run.cold()+0x7: call without frame pointer save/setup
If reverting the above commit, we will get the following warning,
kernel/bpf/core.o: warning: objtool: ___bpf_prog_run()+0x8b9: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
if CONFIG_RETPOLINE=n, and no warning if CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y

Thanks. I was able to recreate. I reduced it to:
void a(b);
__attribute__((optimize(""))) c(void) { a(); }
Apparently '__attribute__((optimize()))' is overwriting GCC cmdline
flags, including -fno-omit-frame-pointer. I had assumed it would append
instead of replace.
I'm guessing this is a GCC "feature" instead of a bug. I'll need to
follow up.
