I do. Admittedly I'm not an expert in how the wchan unwinding works but
we have a slightly older version of this patch in our kernel (schedule_loop
not __schedule_loop). When I added __sched it fixed it. Maybe there
is something else but that seemed pretty obvious.
/* Attach to any functions which should be ignored in wchan output. */
#define __sched __section(".sched.text")
I can't explain why you are not seeing it.
