[Crash-utility] bt: cannot determine starting stack pointer
Hi,
I need the stack traces of the tasks that are on-proc as well as the
tasks that are not. "bt" fails for the on-proc tasks, even though there
is a backup mechanism for finding the stack: the "stack" field of the
task structure. Even if it is a bit out-of-date, it is better than an
"I dunno" message. Perhaps augment the stack trace with a "this
might be slightly out-of-date because the task was running when
the kernel crashed" message.
Example:
crash> foreach bt
[...]
PID: 20311 TASK: ffff8803ff654140 CPU: 9 COMMAND: "xtnhc"
bt: cannot determine starting stack pointer
