Thank you for rapid response. I'm using the most current code, which already contains this patch.

Did you mean you cannot reproduce this phenomenon? Because the index is (stkptr - bt->stackbase). I think it should be OK if they are in the same range(both larger than PAGE_OFFSET of both smaller than PAGE_OFFSET). For my further inspect, Only bt 0 will crash. bt other thread is OK. I guess maybe swapper also should use stack address beyond PAGE_OFFSET (for my board, it's 0xffffffc000000000). > > 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
