fail to get stack frame on crash 7.2.0
when trying to get stack frame with the command such as "bt -f" then, I could see a warning message like below "cannot determine starting stack frame for task".
and still could not get the correct callstack with its registers even though message was just a warning.
could anyone solve this problem??
Thanks,

What kind of dumpfile is it? What architecture?

What do you mean by "with its registers"?
What kind of dumpfile is it? What architecture? -> arch is arm64.(current I'm developing the android project) -> how can i check kind of dumpfile?
I was confused. I mean when using "bt -t" or "bt -a", I could see below things.

What is the output of "help -D"?
I'm confused. when using "bt -t" or "bt -a", i could see below things.

The WARNING message comes from here in arm64.c, where it is trying to determine the starting pc and sp register values:
static void arm64_get_stack_frame(struct bt_info *bt, ulong *pcp, ulong *spp) { int ret; struct arm64_stackframe stackframe = { 0 };
if (DUMPFILE() && is_task_active(bt->task))
ret = arm64_get_dumpfile_stackframe(bt, &stackframe);
else
ret = arm64_get_stackframe(bt, &stackframe);
if (!ret)
error(WARNING,
"cannot determine starting stack frame for task %lx\n",
bt->task);
bt->frameptr = stackframe.fp;
if (pcp)
*pcp = stackframe.pc;
if (spp)
*spp = stackframe.sp;
}
Depending upon whether the "Binder:16621_1" task was active at the time of the crash, it failed either in arm64_get_dumpfile_stackframe() or arm64_get_stackframe(). If it was active, I'm presuming that it failed at the top of arm64_get_dumpfile_stackframe():
static int arm64_get_dumpfile_stackframe(struct bt_info *bt, struct arm64_stackframe *frame) { struct machine_specific *ms = machdep->machspec; struct arm64_pt_regs *ptregs;
if (!ms->panic_task_regs ||
(!ms->panic_task_regs[bt->tc->processor].sp &&
!ms->panic_task_regs[bt->tc->processor].pc)) {
bt->flags |= BT_REGS_NOT_FOUND;
return FALSE;
}
...
You can determine whether the ms->panic_task_regs were set appropriately like this:
crash> help -m ... [ cut ] ... panic_task_regs: 39f3410 ...
If it is non-zero (a user-space address), then perhaps the .sp or .pc values for cpu 0 are NULL. Those values get set during initialization by the arm_get_crash_notes() function. You could debug that function to see whether they are getting set. It looks like there would have been some type of warning message during initialization if it failed, but you didn't send the output of the command.

I also meet such problem. on ARM64 platform I also can't restore the task bt; crash> help -m ... [ cut ] ... panic_task_regs: 0 ... but actually I get restore the pc, sp ptr from kmsg print or other way, is there any way to set the x0~x31 and PC, SP ptr by hand? and then the bt can work fine?

You can try using the bt command's "-I
[ 744.483512] pc : machine_kexec+0x58/0x3e8 [ 744.531499] lr : machine_kexec+0x58/0x3e8 [ 744.579486] sp : ffff000011b4f6a0
and then try "bt -I machine_kexec+0x58" -S ffff000011b4f6a0". If that doesn't work, try adding or subtracting 8 from the stack address.

hi
i already debug the function, seems no crash_notes symbol, did you side fix the issue?
Thx.
Hi guys,
I was able to get the bt(still with one error message) by adding/subtracting(yes, both worked) 8 from sp on arm64. The printed register values are not correct though.
P.S: help -D and help -m output is attached.

Hi guys, I also meet such problem. on ARM64 platform. Adding/subtracting 8 from sp is does not work yet.

Does anyone have any ideas to solve this problem?
Thanks Very Much
When the crash is just started, the following print is displayed. Does it matter?
WARNING: cpu 0: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 1: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 2: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 3: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 4: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 5: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 6: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note WARNING: cpu 7: cannot find NT_PRSTATUS note
Also, is the issue related to zram enabled in the kernel?
Thanks.
