Subject: [Bug runtime/26673] New: The kernel backtrace dumper should not use stack array which may lead to compilation errors
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2020 19:36:55 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-26673-6586@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26673

            Bug ID: 26673
           Summary: The kernel backtrace dumper should not use stack array
                    which may lead to compilation errors
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: agentzh at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Consider the following example when using a MAXBACKTRACE macro value larger
than 60 and the kernel backtrace dumper in the stap runtime, it will lead to
compilation errors due to the on-stack array "entries" in the function of the
stap runt

```
$ /opt/stap/bin/stap -DMAXBACKTRACE=61 -e 'probe begin { print_backtrace() }'
