Hi Alexey,

Yes , agree we have to put some check like below

  if (permitted && (task->flags & PF_DUMPCORE) && try_get_task_stack(task)) {

                        eip = KSTK_EIP(task);

                        esp = KSTK_ESP(task);

                }

Or instead of this also , can't we check whether task is in exiting path or not by checking some flags like PF_EXITING.

Regards

Gaurav
