xorl %ebp, %ebp movq PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack), %rax leaq -PTREGS_SIZE(%rax), %rsp UNWIND_HINT_REGS call do_exit Does unspeakable things to the stack, which objtool currently fails to detect due to a limitation in instruction decoding. This will be rectified after which the above will result in: arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o: warning: objtool: .text+0xab: unsupported stack register modification Allow the UNWIND_HINT on the next instruction to suppress this, it will overwrite the state anyway.
