mainlining shenanigans
Revise and add CFI CFA and register rule annotations to the vDSO functions for proper stack unwinding and debugging. Because glibc might call the vDSO in special ways, the vDSO code does not rely on a stack frame created by the caller. The TOD clock value can be therefore not stored in the pre-allocated stack area and additional stack space is required. To correctly annotate these situations with CFI, the .cfi_val_offset directive is required to create relative offsets on the value of the stack register %r15. Because the .cfi_val_offset directive is available with recent GNU assembler versions only, additional checks are necessary. Note that if the vDSO is assembled with an older assembler version, stack unwinding and debugging from within the vDSO code might not be possible.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
