Hello Steve,
Much obliged for your explaining this.
As your guess, there's another path that uses CALLER_ADDR1 without
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING though both lockdep and ftrace's irqsoff tracer
is turned on. In this case, ftrace's trace_hardirqs_on/off() would be
called.
And, as you said to me, if lockdep is off and ftrace's irqsoff is on,
ftrace's trace_hardirqs_on/off() would be called.
I think the proper way to avoid calling CALLER_ADDR1 will be calling
trace_hardirqs_off_caller() instead of calling stop_critical_timing()
directly in trace_hardirqs_off(). And, this will suppress the message
outputs of unwind_frame.
If you think this idea is okay, I will push the patch v2 to you.
In my test result, it looks it's functionally correct.
Thanks.
