Linus's tree already has this fixed, see: commit 433c5f706856689be25928a99636e724fb3ea7cf Author: David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 7 23:04:37 2008 -0700 sparc64: Fix end-of-stack checking in save_stack_trace(). Bug reported by Alexander Beregalov. Before we dereference the stack frame or try to peek at the pt_regs magic value, make sure the entire object is within the kernel stack bounds. Signed-off-by: David S.
