Subject: [PATCH v14 12/12] unwind deferred/x86: Do not defer stack tracing for compat tasks
Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2025 20:49:22 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250717004958.432327787@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250717004910.297898999@kernel.org

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Currently compat tasks are not supported. If a deferred user space stack
trace is requested on a compat task, it should fail and return an error so
that the profiler can use an alternative approach (whatever it uses
today).

Add a arch_unwind_can_defer() macro that is called in
unwind_deferred_request(). Have x86 define it to a function that makes
sure that the current task is running in 64bit mode, and if it is not, it
returns false. This will cause unwind_deferred_request() to error out and
the caller can use the current method of user space stack tracing.
