[PATCH] Fix for "bt -v" option to display the stack-end address correctly

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

 



The "bt -v" command prints incorrect stack-end address when the
"CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y" is enabled in kernel, the "bt -v"
command output shows that the value stored at 0xffff8dee0312c198
is 0xffffffffc076400a, however, the value stored actually at
0xffff8dee0312c198 is NULL(0x0000000000000000), the stack-end
address is incorrect.

Without the patch:
crash> bt -v
PID: 28642  TASK: ffff8dee0312c180  CPU: 0   COMMAND: "insmod"
  possible stack overflow: ffff8dee0312c198: ffffffffc076400a != STACK_END_MAGIC
                                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

crash> rd 0xffff8dee0312c198
ffff8dee0312c198:  0000000000000000                    ........
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

With the patch:
crash> bt -v
PID: 28642  TASK: ffff8dee0312c180  CPU: 0   COMMAND: "insmod"
  possible stack overflow: ffff991340bc0000: ffffffffc076400a != STACK_END_MAGIC

crash> rd 0xffff991340bc0000
ffff991340bc0000:  ffffffffc076400a                    .@v.....
