Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.7 19/25] x86/stacktrace: Fix reliable check for empty user task stacks
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2020 19:23:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200727232345.717432-19-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200727232345.717432-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 039a7a30ec102ec866d382a66f87f6f7654f8140 ]

If a user task's stack is empty, or if it only has user regs, ORC
reports it as a reliable empty stack.  But arch_stack_walk_reliable()
incorrectly treats it as unreliable.

That happens because the only success path for user tasks is inside the
loop, which only iterates on non-empty stacks.  Generally, a user task
must end in a user regs frame, but an empty stack is an exception to
that rule.

Thanks to commit 71c95825289f ("x86/unwind/orc: Fix error handling in
__unwind_start()"), unwind_start() now sets state->error appropriately.
So now for both ORC and FP unwinders, unwind_done() and !unwind_error()
always means the end of the stack was successfully reached.  So the
success path for kthreads is no longer needed -- it can also be used for
empty user tasks.
