Subject: [PATCH -tip v5 5/7] x86: fix kernel_trap_sp()
Date: Sat, 09 May 2009 01:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090509004904.5505.59034.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090509004829.5505.38720.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

Use &regs->sp instead of regs for getting the top of stack in kernel mode.
(on x86-64, regs->sp always points the top of stack)

[ impact: Oprofile decodes only stack for backtracing on i386 ]
