I hear for the first time that the same kind of proposal was already
proposed previously on this mailing list. I try to find it to compare
with mine.
AFAIK many people are interested in this feature and it has been discussed
before but nobody actually offered a patch until now. Last thread I am aware of
is this one:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/crash-utility/2010-February/msg00055.html
Admittedly, that thread is just about extracting an userland backtrace. Maybe
your patch can be adapted to add a "btu" command (or maybe "bt -u") to
extract
an userland backtrace directly?
Thank you very much anyway :)
