Abstract(in English) The stack unwinding during program execution implemented in high-level languages is based on debugging information written in DWARF. This information is also used by Theseus, an operating system that emphasizes memory safety, and plays a role in fault recovery. However, this debugging information has been reported to contain bugs, which makes it unreliable. To address this problem, validation system of a debugging information for x86_64 architecture computers has been proposed. In this paper, we propose Validation system of a debugging information for the AArch64 architecture based on the differences between the x86_64 and AArch64 architectures.
