[PATCH] LoongArch: Fix callchain parse error with kernel tracepoint events again

From: Huacai Chen
Date: Tue May 07 2024 - 02:44:53 EST


With commit d3119bc985fb645 ("LoongArch: Fix callchain parse error with
kernel tracepoint events"), perf can parse kernel callchain, but not
complete and sometimes maybe error. The reason is LoongArch's unwinders
(guess, prologue and orc) don't really need fp (i.e., regs[22]), and
they use sp (i.e., regs[3]) as the frame address rather than the current
stack pointer.

Fix that by removing the assignment of regs[22], and instead assign the
__builtin_frame_address(0) to regs[3].

Without fix:
