Your checkout is a bit old, the extra check was added back in april in this commit: commit 6088a29f7e4ad7160e757679827db63ea41553df Author: Dave Anderson <anderson@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Apr 5 11:07:59 2018 -0400 Fix for the "bt" command on 4.16 and later kernels size in which the "thread_union" data structure is not contained in the vmlinux file's debuginfo data. Without the patch, the kernel stack size is not calculated correctly, and defaults to 8K. As a result "bt" fails with the message "bt: invalid RSP: <address> bt->stackbase/stacktop: <address>/<address> cpu: <number>". (efault@xxxxxx) which is present in releases since 7.2.2 according to `git tag --contains`, but development should probably always be done with an updated tree -- Domnique -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
