Subject: how to get a process backtrace from kernel gdb?
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2006 16:02:19 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4420940B.9030605@hotmail.com> (raw)
I'm running gdb on vmlinux connected to a remote target (2.4 kernel). I
have the task_struct address of 'current' and other processes. Is it
possible to get a symbolic stack trace of the kernel stack? Where is the
kernel stack located? I tried to print (task_struct->reg29)[13]. Is this
the PC?
thanks
srini
PS. I broke into gdb using a hotkey on the serial console; so the gdb
backtrace shows the serial driver.
