Subject: [PATCH v8 15/18] perf: Have get_perf_callchain() return NULL if crosstask and user are set
Date: Fri, 09 May 2025 12:45:39 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250509165156.135430576@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250509164524.448387100@goodmis.org
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>
get_perf_callchain() doesn't support cross-task unwinding for user space
stacks, have it return NULL if both the crosstask and user arguments are
set.
