Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 08/15] unwind_user: Enable archs that define CFA = SP_callsite + offset
Most architectures define their CFA as the value of the stack pointer
(SP) at the call site in the previous frame, as suggested by the DWARF
standard. Therefore the SP at call site can be unwound using an
implicitly assumed value offset from CFA rule with an offset of zero:
.cfi_val_offset <SP>, 0
As a result the SP at call site computes as follows:
SP = CFA
Enable unwinding of user space for architectures, such as s390, which
define their CFA as the value of the SP at the call site in the previous
frame with an offset. Do so by enabling architectures to override the
default SP value offset from CFA of zero with an architecture-specific
one:
.cfi_val_offset <SP>, offset
So that the SP at call site computes as follows:
SP = CFA + offset

Notes (jremus):
Changes in RFC v2:
- Reword commit message. (Josh)
- Use term "sp_off" instead of "sp_val_off". (Josh)
- Move definition, initialization, and setting of sp_off field to
happen right after the cfa_off field.
- Use SFRAME_SP_OFFSET macro instead of sframe_sp_off() function,
which can be overridden by an architecture, such as s390.
- Drop lengthy sframe_sp_[val_]off() comment.
