Subject: [PATCH 4.9 02/32] MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2018 09:36:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180716073504.733225999@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180716073504.433996952@linuxfoundation.org>

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com>

commit 5a267832c2ec47b2dad0fdb291a96bb5b8869315 upstream.

The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct
pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use
of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of
show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no
accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current
implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register
state is available.

In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to
implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of
show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in
arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace().

This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later
patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce
extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this:

  1) Seems harmless.
  2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
     and other users of show_regs().
  3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM & PowerPC architectures.

Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch
"MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".
