 Hi Lianbo, Tao
 When the ELF Note does not contain CPU registers,
 attempting to retrieve online CPU registers will cause a crash.
 After:
 CPU 6:
 help: registers not collected for cpu 6

I copied the code block here:

Could you please point out why the above check does not work?
BTW: I'm not sure if it can work for you, can you help to try this? Just a
guess.
        if (((cpu < 0 ) || (!dd->nt_prstatus_percpu[cpu])
             || (cpu - skipped_count) >= nd->num_prstatus_notes) &&
