Currently REG_SP_INDIRECT is unused but means (%rsp + offset), change it to mean (%rsp) + offset. The reason is that we're going to swizzle stack in the middle of a C function with non-trivial stack footprint. This means that when the unwinder finds the ToS, it needs to dereference it (%rsp) and then add the offset to the next frame, resulting in: (%rsp) + offset This is somewhat unfortunate, since REG_BP_INDIRECT is used (by DRAP) and thus needs to retain the current (%rbp + offset).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
