And my > kernel version is 4.4.35. I note your reference to github, but what version of crash are you using? The only thing that comes to mind is this fix that went into crash-7.1.8: - Fix for the ARM64 "bt" command in Linux 4.10 and later kernels that are configured with CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK. Without the patch, the "bt" command will fail for active tasks in dumpfiles that were generated by the kdump facility. (takahiro.akashi@xxxxxxxxxx) But since you are using kernel version 4.4.35, that is presumably not the problem. > I tried to use gdb to examine this problem, Some information is shown > as below: > > (gdb) bt > #0 arm64_is_kernel_exception_frame (bt=bt@entry=0x7ffeba6577e0, > stkptr=stkptr@entry=18446743803091823872) at arm64.c:1504 > #1 0x00000000004fbda8 in arm64_back_trace_cmd (bt=0x7ffeba6577e0) at arm64.c:2259 > #2 0x00000000004d415c in back_trace (bt=bt@entry=0x7ffeba6577e0) at kernel.c:3063 > #3 0x00000000004dee87 in cmd_bt () at kernel.c:2701 > [...] > (gdb) p/x stkptr > $14 = 0xffffffc0fded2d00 > (gdb) p/x bt->stackbase > $15 = 0xffffff8008dcc000 > > As it is, (stkptr - bt->stackbase) is too large.

The closest sample arm64 kernel I have available is 4.5-based, and looking at the kernel virtual address space, both the stkptr and stackbase values above are out of range, so I'm not sure what's going on: crash> mach MACHINE TYPE: aarch64 MEMORY SIZE: 16 GB CPUS: 1 HZ: 1000 PAGE SIZE: 65536 KERNEL VIRTUAL BASE: ffff800000000000 KERNEL VMALLOC BASE: ffff000000000000 KERNEL MODULES BASE: ffff7ffffc000000 KERNEL VMEMMAP BASE: ffff7fbfe0000000 KERNEL STACK SIZE: 16384 IRQ STACK SIZE: 16384 IRQ STACKS: CPU 0: ffff8003ffe30020 CPU 1: ffff8003ffe60020 CPU 2: ffff8003ffe90020 CPU 3: ffff8003ffec0020 CPU 4: ffff8003ffef0020 CPU 5: ffff8003fff20020 CPU 6: ffff8003fff50020 CPU 7: ffff8003fff80020 crash> Dave > -- > Crash-utility mailing list > Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility > -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
