See the example below.

See the example below:

I am not spoiling anything.


Let us take an example:

ffff800008010000 <bcm2835_handle_irq>:
ffff800008010000: d503201f nop
ffff800008010004: d503201f nop
ffff800008010008: d503233f paciasp
ffff80000801000c: a9be7bfd stp x29, x30, [sp, #-32]!
ffff800008010010: 910003fd mov x29, sp
ffff800008010014: f9000bf3 str x19, [sp, #16]


The stack pointer is first moved by -32 and the FP and LR are stored there.
At this point, SP is pointing to the frame. The CFA is:

CFA = SP + 32

The frame pointer has been stored at the location pointed to by the SP.
So, FP should be:

FP = CFA - 32

Therefore, at instruction address ffff800008010014:

frame->cfa = SP + 32;
frame->fp = frame->cfa - 32 = SP;

So, if a call/interrupt happens after this instruction, the frame pointer computed
from the above data will match with the actual frame pointer.

I have verified this using the DWARF data generated by the compiler. It is correct.
I have also verified that the stack trace through such code passes the reliability
check. That is, it computes the frame pointer correctly which matches with the
actual frame pointer.
