Hi, Tiezhu,
The include/linux/linkage.h noted,
* FUNC -- C-like functions (proper stack frame etc.)
* CODE -- non-C code (e.g. irq handlers with different, special stack
etc.)
I think here should be SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL. Thus, it may create debug
info like sp_offset == 0 && ra == CFI_UNDEFINED, (just some impressions).
BTW, I've noticed some funcs should be marked as SYM_CODE.., e.g.
handle_syscall, handle_tlb_xxx. If you are sure that changes are
necessary, fix them.
Thanks!
