Hi,
I am a getting a kernel panic with the error as bad EIP value when I
return from a function. I want to check if the EIP is getting modified
in the function. How do I get the saved EIP value from the stack. In
essence I tried the following, but it failed:
function() {
char temp[4];
printk("Saved EIP %x", *(unsigned long*)(temp + 8));
}
I know that the value printed is wrong, as I also used dump_stack( ),
which gave a differnet address for the previous function.
Any help will be appreciated. thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vinay
