Currently we call the original function by using the absolute address given at the JIT generation. That's not usable when having trampoline attached to multiple functions, or the target address changes dynamically (in case of live patch). In such cases we need to take the return address from the stack. Adding support to retrieve the original function address from the stack by adding new BPF_TRAMP_F_ORIG_STACK flag for arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline function. Basically we take the return address of the 'fentry' call: function + 0: call fentry # stores 'function + 5' address on stack function + 5: ... The 'function + 5' address will be used as the address for the original function to call.

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.
