[PATCH] s390/livepatch: Implement reliable stack tracing for the consistency model

2019-07-10 Thread Miroslav Benes
The livepatch consistency model requires reliable stack tracing architecture support in order to work properly. In order to achieve this, two main issues have to be solved. First, reliable and consistent call chain backtracing has to be ensured. Second, the unwinder needs to be able to detect stack
