[v2] riscv: Dump user opcode bytes on fatal faults
Commit Message
We encountered such a problem that when the system starts to execute
init, init exits unexpectedly with error message: "unhandled signal 4
code 0x1 ...".
We are more curious about which instruction execution caused the
exception. After dumping it through show_opcodes(), we found that it
was caused by a floating-point instruction.
In this way, we found the problem: in the system bringup , it is
precisely that we have not enabled the floating point function(CONFIG_FPU
is set, but not enalbe COMPAT_HWCAP_ISA_F/D in the dts or acpi).
Like commit ba54d856a9d8 ("x86/fault: Dump user opcode bytes on fatal
faults"), when an exception occurs, it is necessary to dump the
instruction that caused the exception.

Hi Yunhui,
Waking up the dead! ;-)

X86's show_opcodes() is used both for kernel oops:es, and userland
unhandled signals. On RISC-V there's dump_kernel_instr() added in commit
eb165bfa8eaf ("riscv: Add instruction dump to RISC-V splats").
Wdyt about reworking that function, so that it works for userland epc as
well? I think it's useful to have the surrounding instruction context,
and not just on instruction.

Yeah, looks good! Does that work for you?
