But I submitted a wrong patch which replaced the hand-written sort() by the kernel provided sort() function: http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/56528/ Due to a bug in the patch a wrong amount of unwind entries were calculated and as such the sort() function didn't sorted all unwind entries. Below is an updated patch. With this one, all your binutils changes work nicely with 32- and 64-bit kernels and modules. Kyle, I see you applied my original patch into your "next" tree already: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kyle/parisc-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b8d46862d910c3be7c28c627204da968c174aa9a Do you want me to send you a new patch against your "next" tree instead? > > If we change this, don't we require a binutils update then at the same time from the users? > > Don't think fixing the offsets requires a binutils update.

Yes, a binutils update will just fix user's "out-of-order-unwind-entry" warnings. Thanks!
