Message-ID: <bug-929-3@http.bugs.dpdk.org/> (raw)

            Bug ID: 929
           Summary: rte_dump_stack() is not safe to call from signal
                    handler
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 21.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: core
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: stephen@networkplumber.org
  Target Milestone: ---

A common scenario is to have a signal handler call rte_dump_stack().
Unfortunately, existing version is not safe in signal handler because it
assumes that malloc pool is not corrupted.

Better alternative is libunwind or libbacktrace
