From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 9a5cbce421a283e6aea3c4007f141735bf9da8c3 upstream. We cap 32bit userspace backtraces to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (currently 127), but we forgot to do the same for 64bit backtraces.
