On i386 it is simpler (only one interrupt stack and one process stack) However there can be still nasty corner cases, like the temporary NMI stacks that were added recently. It could be probably all handled in a state machine, but it would be ugly (at least I heard complaints about the x86 code that does it) > Read the x86 code. Please.

It's still the same if you disable unwinding. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
