From 258c76059cece01bebae098e81bacb1af2edad17 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2018 21:46:24 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Allow alternatives to be ignored Getting objtool to understand retpolines is going to be a bit of a challenge. For now, take advantage of the fact that retpolines are patched in with alternatives. Just read the original (sane) non-alternative instruction, and ignore the patched-in retpoline. This allows objtool to understand the control flow *around* the retpoline, even if it can't yet follow what's inside. This means the ORC unwinder will fail to unwind from inside a retpoline, but will work fine otherwise.
