x86/dumpstack: Add show_stack_regs() and use it
Add a helper to dump supplied pt_regs and use it in the MSR exception handling code to have precise stack traces pointing to the actual function causing the MSR access exception and not the stack frame of the exception handler itself. The new output looks like this: unchecked MSR access error: RDMSR from 0xdeadbeef at rIP: 0xffffffff8102ddb6 (early_init_intel+0x16/0x3a0) 00000000756e6547 ffffffff81c03f68 ffffffff81dd0940 ffffffff81c03f10 ffffffff81d42e65 0000000001000000 ffffffff81c03f58 ffffffff81d3e5a3 0000800000000000 ffffffff81800080 ffffffffffffffff 0000000000000000 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81d42e65>] early_cpu_init+0xe7/0x136 [<ffffffff81d3e5a3>] setup_arch+0xa5/0x9df [<ffffffff81d38bb9>] start_kernel+0x9f/0x43a [<ffffffff81d38294>] x86_64_start_reservations+0x2f/0x31 [<ffffffff81d383fe>] x86_64_start_kernel+0x168/0x176 Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: H.
