From 1aabc5990d205cdb0789a1c26143c53601e9bb07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2014 13:26:40 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] x86: Fix dumpstack_64 to keep state of "used" variable in loop Commit 2223f6f6eeaa "x86: Clean up dumpstack_64.c code" moved the used variable to a local within the loop, but the in_exception_stack() depended on being non-volatile with the ability to change it. By always re-initializing the "used" variable to zero, it would cause the in_exception_stack() to return the same thing each time, and cause the dump_stack loop to go into an infinite loop.
