Re: [Crash-utility] Problem in bt for ARM64
----- Original Message -----
Ok. I have seen this change in the pt_regs struct before but did not
connect
it to this problem. I see these new field in pt_regs in earlier kernel
versions than 4.7, but it is probably backports. It really does not matter
for the solution of the problem. The following change works for me:
Change:
#define USER_EFRAME_OFFSET (304)
to:
#define USER_EFRAME_OFFSET (STRUCT_SIZE("pt_regs") + 16)
Then you might want to avoid the recalculation of the struct size. I think
your patch does the same thing.
Yeah, but doing it your way makes better sense. In fact, I see that there's
another commit coming down the pike in 4.14-rc1 that changes the size yet again:
diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/asm/ptrace.h b/arch/arm64/include/asm/ptrace.h
