[PATCH 2/2] x86/unwind: Dump all stacks in unwind_dump()

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Tue Apr 25 2017 - 21:49:28 EST


Currently unwind_dump() dumps only the most recently accessed stack.
But it has a few issues.

In some cases, 'first_sp' can get out of sync with 'stack_info', causing
unwind_dump() to start from the wrong address, flood the printk buffer,
and eventually read a bad address.

In other cases, dumping only the most recently accessed stack doesn't
give enough data to diagnose the error.

Fix both issues by dumping *all* stacks involved in the trace, not just
the last one.

Fixes: 8b5e99f02264 ("x86/unwind: Dump stack data on warnings")
