Subject: [PATCH v16 10/10] unwind: Finish up unwind when a task exits
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2025 14:23:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250729182406.504259474@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250729182304.965835871@kernel.org
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
On do_exit() when a task is exiting, if a unwind is requested and the
deferred user stacktrace is deferred via the task_work, the task_work
callback is called after exit_mm() is called in do_exit(). This means that
the user stack trace will not be retrieved and an empty stack is created.
Instead, add a function unwind_deferred_task_exit() and call it just
before exit_mm() so that the unwinder can call the requested callbacks
with the user space stack.
