Ok, I'll do next time. > I'm also not keen on the use of current->stack.

Thanks. Seems that we should use it here (though current->stack look like work now). lib/debugobjects.c has the same code (that uses current->stack) to detect an address on the stack. Next time, I'll add a helper function to detect an address on the stack, which is useful for debugobjects.c, blk-map.c and ide-cd.c. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
