[PATCH v2 4/6] proc: Only report /proc/$pid/wchan when process is blocked

From: Kees Cook
Date: Wed Sep 29 2021 - 18:04:33 EST


The current get_wchan() implementations do their best to avoid problems
when walking a stack given a process in an unknown state, but this is
fragile and unnecessary. It's only useful to report wchan if a process
is actually blocked, so use the new sched_task_get_wchan() instead.
