[PATCH 2/2] unwind: relax the pass condition of strace-k.test test case

[Masatake YAMATO]

strace-k.test is failed on i386 GNU/Linux. I inspect the reason and it
seems that libunwind does not have enough ability to unwinding the
stack when pc is at [vdso].  However, I think stacktrace feature is
still useful even on i386 GNU/Linux. So this patch relaxes the pass
condition of strace-k.test test case.

Background:

It seems that call convention at vdso on i386 linux is different
from explanations on widely available texts.

Generally $ebp + 4 points return address for the current frame.
libunwind may use this convention for unwinding.

However, this convention is not applicable at vdso on i386 linux.

Gdb may know the convention used in the vdso.
I run a program extended from stack-fcall.c under gdb.
Call sequence of extended stack-fcall.c is

     main -> f0 -> f1 -> f2 -> getpid -> sysenter@[vdso].

Following gdb session is stopped just after sysenter@[vdso].
With where command of gdb, the call sequence is printed.
However, with unwinding manually, in other words tracking
$ebp, the addresses of f2 and getpid are not found.
f1, f0 and main can be unwined well.

How the test case is relaxed:

Though two frames on the stack are lost, I think stacktrace feature
is useful. So I decide to relax the pass condition of test case.

* tests/stack-fcall.c (f2): New function.
  (f1): Call f2. Added one more function call.

* tests/strace-k.test: check the output of test
  target with matching two patterns. The test is passed
  when the output matches one of them.

  One is "getpid f2 f1 f0 main". This is strict pattern we
  used before. "f1 f0 main" is the new relaxed pattern.

  This patch may explains the call convention in vdso of i386.
