[PATCH 0/7] Add build ID to stacktraces

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

 



This series adds the kernel's build ID to the stacktrace header printed
in oops messages, warnings, etc. and the build ID for any module that
appears in the stacktrace after the module name. The goal is to make the
stacktrace more self-contained and descriptive by including the relevant
build IDs in the kernel logs when something goes wrong. This can be used
by post processing tools like script/decode_stacktrace.sh and kernel
developers to easily locate the debug info associated with a kernel
crash and line up what line and file things started falling apart at.

This also includes a patch to make the buildid.c file use more const
arguments and consolidate logic into buildid.c from kdump. These are
left to the end as they were mostly cleanup patches. I don't know who
exactly maintains this so I guess Andrew is the best option to merge all
this code.

Here's an example lkdtm stacktrace
