| From | Josh Poimboeuf <> | Subject | [PATCH v4 50/57] x86/unwind: warn on bad stack return address | Date | Thu, 18 Aug 2016 08:06:30 -0500 |
| |
If __kernel_text_address() doesn't recognize a return address on the stack, it probably means that it's some generated code which __kernel_text_address() doesn't know about yet.
Otherwise there's probably some stack corruption.
Either way, warn about it.
Use printk_deferred_once() because the unwinder can be called with the console lock by lockdep via save_stack_trace().
