From 5c34aea341b16e29fde6e6c8d4b18866cd99754d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Rogers Date: Wed, 22 Sep 2021 10:38:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] perf test: Fix DWARF unwind for optimized builds. To ensure the stack frames are on the stack tail calls optimizations need to be inhibited. If your compiler supports an attribute use it, otherwise use an asm volatile barrier. The barrier fix was suggested here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201028081123.GT2628@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net/ Tested with an optimized clang build and by forcing the asm barrier route with an optimized clang build. A GCC bug tracking a proper disable_tail_calls is: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=97831 Fixes: 9ae1e990f1ab ("perf tools: Remove broken __no_tail_call attribute") v2. is a rebase. The original fix patch generated quite a lot of discussion over the right place for the fix: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201114000803.909530-1-irogers@google.com/ The patch reflects my preference of it being near the use, so that future code cleanups don't break this somewhat special usage.
