From d8d1b2cb58540b0cf572be4715167c473193888e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 00:06:54 -0600 Subject: objtool: Fix false positive warnings related to sibling calls With some configs [1], objtool prints a bunch of false positive warnings like: arch/x86/events/core.o: warning: objtool: x86_del_exclusive()+0x0: frame pointer state mismatch For some reason this config has a bunch of sibling calls. When objtool follows a sibling call jump, it attempts to compare the frame pointer state. But it also accidentally compares the FENTRY state, resulting in a false positive warning.
