[PATCH] ARM: dump also userspace registers when backtracing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Enhance backtracing code to print out userspace registers in case we
are at syscall entry. Other architectures supported by crash are
already doing this.

I tested this with both unwind tables and framepointers enabled on
my test vmcores, and also on live system.
