Subject: [PATCH] parisc: Stop unwinding at start of stack
Date: Sun, 17 Sep 2017 21:05:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170917190502.GA8355@p100.box> (raw)
Check stack pointer if we are reaching the stack end and stop unwinding
if we do. This fixes early backtraces and avoids showing unrealistic
call stacks.
