[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.2.70-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx>

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.
