Hi Mark, Andreas,

Thanks for this direction: Emitting the CFI data in the .debug_frame work
nicely. With that change, perf probe and my test program works.  For refere=
nce:

./ko-func-call-frame-cfa xts_paes_crypt
~/git/linux/arch/s390/crypto/paes_s390.ko=20
I: Looking up xts_paes_crypt@/root/git/linux/arch/s390/crypto/paes_s390.ko
DIE: name=3Dxts_paes_crypt tag=3Dsubprogram offset=3D53957 (0xd2c5)
        low   pc: 10ca8
        high  pc: 10e78
        entry pc: 10ca8
I: Frame Base: Number of locations: 1 (len=3D1)
I: Frame Base: Location operation 0: call_frame_cfa
E: Could not obtain CFI (eh): no DWARF information
I: CFA operation: 0: bregx

clearly shows a successful call to dwarf_frame_cfa() obtaining the CFI from=
 the
.debug_frame (and not longe from the .eh_frame).

Having explicit ebl hooks would still be nice but I guess will not be the
top-priority item in the TODO list.  I pursue to integrate my change for s3=
90
in the upstream kernel.

Thanks!
