Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] watchdog: use sys_info_with_filter() to avoid duplicate backtraces
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 15:25:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260625152558.7450-3-include@grrlz.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260625152558.7450-1-include@grrlz.net>
The watchdog prints all CPU backtraces itself. When the watchdog mask
contains only SYS_INFO_ALL_BT, stripping that bit leaves zero and
sys_info(0) falls back to kernel_sys_info.
Use sys_info_with_filter() so an explicit all_bt mask does not request
the global default.
Fixes: a9af76a78760 ("watchdog: add sys_info sysctls to dump sys info on system lockup")
