The instruction # sequence used is minimal to reduce overhead. Crucially, a stackframe is # not created for the function being traced. This breaks stack unwinding # since the function being traced does not have a stackframe for itself. # As such, it never shows up in the backtrace: # # /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled # /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat stack_trace # Depth Size Location (17 entries) # ----- ---- -------- # 0) 4144 32 ftrace_call+0x4/0x44 # 1) 4112 432 get_page_from_freelist+0x26c/0x1ad0 # 2) 3680 496 __alloc_pages+0x290/0x1280 # 3) 3184 336 __folio_alloc+0x34/0x90 # 4) 2848 176 vma_alloc_folio+0xd8/0x540 # 5) 2672 272 __handle_mm_fault+0x700/0x1cc0 # 6) 2400 208 handle_mm_fault+0xf0/0x3f0 # 7) 2192 80 ___do_page_fault+0x3e4/0xbe0 # 8) 2112 160 do_page_fault+0x30/0xc0 # 9) 1952 256 data_access_common_virt+0x210/0x220 # 10) 1696 400 0xc00000000f16b100 # 11) 1296 384 load_elf_binary+0x804/0x1b80 # 12) 912 208 bprm_execve+0x2d8/0x7e0 # 13) 704 64 do_execveat_common+0x1d0/0x2f0 # 14) 640 160 sys_execve+0x54/0x70 # 15) 480 64 system_call_exception+0x138/0x350 # 16) 416 416 system_call_common+0x160/0x2c4 # # Fix this by having ftrace create a dummy stackframe for the function # being traced.
