2.6.19, more unwinder problems ...

Jan,

i got the dump below on x86_64 (2.6.19 with the -rt patch applied but no 
changes to the unwinder). How on earth did we get a pagefault in 
unwind()? It seems we do:

0xffffffff8026127e is in unwind (kernel/unwind.c:1109).
1104                                            return -EIO;
1105                                    switch(reg_info[i].width) {
1106    #define CASE(n)     case sizeof(u##n): \
1107                                            __get_user(FRAME_REG(i, u##n), (u##n *)addr); \
1108                                            break
1109                                    CASES;
1110    #undef CASE
1111                                    default:
1112                                            return -EIO;
1113                                    }
(gdb)

now that looks quite wrong to me - why the __get_user() to begin with - 
you should really validate that the pointer is where you expect it - at 
which point __get_user() is not needed.

now, this dump was not fatal so the pagefault did eventually manage to 
extend the userspace stack - but it could have been fatal.

i thought we agreed that the unwinder would not be doing get_user() at 
all?

(gcc version 4.0.2, binutils 2.16.1)
