Yeah, even the functions that do show 64-bit user mode exception frames
appear to have invalid contents. It looks like the pt_regs is not at the
same fixed location on the stack where it has always been, i.e., as it gets
set here unconditionally at the bottom of arm64_back_trace_cmd():
complete_user:
exception_frame = bt->stacktop - USER_EFRAME_OFFSET;
arm64_print_exception_frame(bt, exception_frame, USER_MODE, ofp);
Jan,
I don't see the problem in anything before 4.7, and I do have a set
of 4.5 dumpfiles and an early 4.7-rc0 dumpfile that do not show the
problem. Are you sure about seeing it in a "4.4.74" kernel?
I say that because it does seem to be confluent with v4.7-rc7 commit
e19a6ee2460bdd0d0055a6029383422773f9999a that has this:

Does the attached patch work for you?
Thanks,
