Subject: [RFC v4 8/9] Link frame_info to thread_info
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2017 17:08:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170612170836.25174-9-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170612170836.25174-1-prudo@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Linux kernel stacks on S390 are spread over several memory locations.
These locations differ for every kernel task/thread. Thus we need to know
to which task/thread a frame belongs to check whether a stack pointer is
valid and when to stop unwinding. To do so add a pointer to corresponding
thread_info to frame_info.
This connection already exists implicitly by the fact that switch_to_thread
reinitializes the frame cache.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* frame.h (frame_get_thread): New extern declaration.
* frame.c (frame_info) <thread>: New field.
(frame_get_thread): New function.
(create_sentinel_frame, create_new_frame, get_prev_frame_raw): Set
new field.
