linux-stable.git/arch/alpha/kernel/stacktrace.c, branch master Linux kernel stable tree alpha: add ARCH_STACKWALK-based stacktrace support 2026-07-19T11:15:54+00:00 Magnus Lindholm linmag7@gmail.com 2026-07-06T16:56:43+00:00 46651c650facce7cac33610ccc7a07a9c9d90df4 Implement arch_stack_walk() for Alpha using a simple kernel stack scanning walker. Start from regs+1 for current tasks to skip pt_regs and use pcb.ksp for blocked tasks. Filter candidates with __kernel_text_address() and stop at stack bounds via kstack_end(). Enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK so generic stacktrace users (dump_stack(), /proc/*/stack, SysRq backtraces, etc.) work on Alpha. This provides functional in-kernel stack traces without requiring frame pointer unwinding.

Implement arch_stack_walk() for Alpha using a simple kernel
stack scanning walker. Start from regs+1 for current tasks
to skip pt_regs and use pcb.ksp for blocked tasks. Filter
candidates with __kernel_text_address() and stop at stack
bounds via kstack_end().

Enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK
so generic stacktrace users (dump_stack(), /proc/*/stack,
SysRq backtraces, etc.) work on Alpha.

This provides functional in-kernel stack traces without
requiring frame pointer unwinding.
