From d3a09104018cf2ad5973dfa8a9c138ef9f5015a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2017 15:07:08 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/unwinder/orc: Dont bail on stack overflow If the stack overflows into a guard page and the ORC unwinder should work well: by construction, there can't be any meaningful data in the guard page because no writes to the guard page will have succeeded. But there is a bug that prevents unwinding from working correctly: if the starting register state has RSP pointing into a stack guard page, the ORC unwinder bails out immediately. Instead of bailing out immediately check whether the next page up is a valid check page and if so analyze that. As a result the ORC unwinder will start the unwind. Tested by intentionally overflowing the task stack. The result is an accurate call trace instead of a trace consisting purely of '?' entries. There are a few other bugs that are triggered if the unwinder encounters a stack overflow after the first step, but they are outside the scope of this fix.
