I tested an earlier version of this patch series, and it worked fine,
with symbolization. However, testing it now, both with nvhe and with
pkvm the symbolization isn't working for me. e.g.
[ 32.986706] kvm [251]: Protected nVHE HYP call trace:
[ 32.986796] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8b0e0>] 0xffff800008f8b0e0
[ 32.987391] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8b388>] 0xffff800008f8b388
[ 32.987493] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8d230>] 0xffff800008f8d230
[ 32.987591] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8d51c>] 0xffff800008f8d51c
[ 32.987695] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8c064>] 0xffff800008f8c064
[ 32.987803] kvm [251]: ---- End of Protected nVHE HYP call trace ----
CONFIG_PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG and
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT are all enabled. Generating
a backtrace in the host I get proper symbolisation.
Is there anything else you'd like to know about my setup that would
help get to the bottom of this?
Thanks,
