Subject: How to dump stack for kernel threads
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2006 11:45:22 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43D90AB2.3020705@lwfinger.net> (raw)

In a driver that I am debugging, there is a periodic task that runs every minute. Intermittently, it 
destructively interrupts some other activity in the driver, but I have not been able to find the 
section that is not thread-safe. I have included a dump_stack call at the point where the problem is 
evident, but the current thread is OK. How would I generate a stack dump of the rest of this 
driver's kernel threads? Dumping all kernel threads would also be OK.

Thanks,

Larry
