Subject: [Patch v4 0/4] Xen stack trace printing improvements
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2013 13:09:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1384952982-1490-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)

This series consists of improvements to Xen's ability to print traces of its
own stack, and specifically for the stack overflow case to be able to use
frame pointers in a debug build.

v4 contains some fixes to the wild function pointer call case, including a
test case.  There was a missed indirection in the test, and when printing the
return address.

I have dev tested the series in debug and non-debug cases, with and without
memory guards, and I believe that all the stack traces look correct (given the
available information Xen has), and that the boundaries are now correct. This
series has had a substantial rebase on top of the %pS series.
