# PowerPC64: Fix incorrect CFI in *context routines
#
# The context established by "makecontext" has a link register pointing
# back to an error path within the makecontext routine. This is currently
# covered by the CFI FDE for makecontext itself, which is simply wrong
# for the stack frame *inside* the context. When trying to unwind (e.g.
# doing a backtrace) in a routine inside a context created by makecontext,
# this can lead to uninitialized stack slots being accessed, causing the
# unwinder to crash in the worst case.
#
# Similarly, during parts of the "setcontext" routine, when the stack
# pointer has already been switched to point to the new context, the
# address range is still covered by the CFI FDE for setcontext. When
# trying to unwind in that situation (e.g. backtrace from an async
# signal handler for profiling), it is again possible that the unwinder
# crashes.
#
# Theses are all problems in existing code, but the changes in stack
# frame layout appear to make the "worst case" much more likely in
# the ELFv2 ABI context. This causes regressions e.g. in the libgo
# testsuite on ELFv2.
#
# This patch fixes this by ending the makecontext/setcontext FDEs
# before those problematic parts of the assembler, similar to what
# is already done on other platforms. This fixes the libgo
# regression on ELFv2.
