Subject: [PATCH] CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=604bf5a216e7f2d97cdf62614ca1281921531040;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

[PATCH] CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO

As a foundation for reliable stack unwinding, this adds a config option
(available to all architectures except IA64 and those where the module
loader might have problems with the resulting relocations) to enable the
generation of frame unwind information.
