[PATCH v3 1/4] perf/x86: Always store regs->ip in perf_callchain_kernel()

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Wed Jun 26 2019 - 20:50:42 EST


From: Song Liu <songliubraving@xxxxxx>

The stacktrace_map_raw_tp BPF selftest is failing because the RIP saved
by perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() isn't getting saved by
perf_callchain_kernel().

This was broken by the following commit:

d15d356887e7 ("perf/x86: Make perf callchains work without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER")

With that change, when starting with non-HW regs, the unwinder starts
with the current stack frame and unwinds until it passes up the frame
which called perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs(). So regs->ip needs to be
saved deliberately.

Fixes: d15d356887e7 ("perf/x86: Make perf callchains work without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER")
