btrace: preserve call stack on function switch
On 64-bit FC25, the _dl_runtime_resolve function uses a conditional branch to 'call' a particular variant optimized for that system: (gdb) disas _dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt Dump of assembler code for function _dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt: 0x00007ffff7deeb60 <+0>: push %rax 0x00007ffff7deeb61 <+1>: push %rcx 0x00007ffff7deeb62 <+2>: push %rdx 0x00007ffff7deeb63 <+3>: mov $0x1,%ecx 0x00007ffff7deeb68 <+8>: xgetbv 0x00007ffff7deeb6b <+11>: mov %eax,%r11d 0x00007ffff7deeb6e <+14>: pop %rdx 0x00007ffff7deeb6f <+15>: pop %rcx 0x00007ffff7deeb70 <+16>: pop %rax 0x00007ffff7deeb71 <+17>: and $0x4,%r11d 0x00007ffff7deeb75 <+21>: bnd je 0x7ffff7def4a0 <_dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex> End of assembler dump. When computing the function-level trace, btrace treats this as a switch from _dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt to _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex. We know that we switched functions but we can't really say in which caller/callee relationship those two functions are. In addition to preserving the indentaion level, also preserve the caller information. This is a heuristic since we don't really know. But at least in this case, this seems to be the right thing to do. This fixes a fail in gdb.btrace/rn-dl-bind.exp on 64-bit FC25. gdb/ * btrace.c (ftrace_new_switch): Preserve up link and flags.
