Hi, I was able to check it in 2.6.36 version of kernel, and it is defined in traps.c. http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.36/arch/mips/kernel/traps.c#L205
dump_stack() calls show_backtrace function which had been show_trace in the earlier kernel versions. I compared between 2.6.14 and the latest version, and here are the differences: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.14/arch/mips/kernel/traps.c#L110 function: show_trace while (!kstack_end(stack)) { addr = *stack++; if (__kernel_text_address(addr)) { printk(" [<%0*lx>] ", field, addr); print_symbol("%s\n", addr); } } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the latest kernel, show_backtrace function is used, which does the same thing, but through different functions http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.36/arch/mips/kernel/traps.c#L126 function: show_backtrace printk("Call Trace:\n"); do { print_ip_sym(pc); pc = unwind_stack(task, &sp, pc, &ra); } while (pc); Regards, Sowmya kernelnewbies-boun...@kernelnewbies.org wrote on 01/02/2011 04:31:08 PM: > [image removed] > > Re: functions about dump backtrace function names in mips arch > > Mulyadi Santosa > > to: > > loody > > 01/02/2011 04:33 PM > > Sent by: > > kernelnewbies-boun...@kernelnewbies.org > > Cc: > > Kernel Newbies > > On Sun, Jan 2, 2011 at 15:26, loody <milo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Dear all: > > If i remember correctly, when kernel panic there is a function I can > > use to dump all the names of backtrace functions. > > I have searched arch/mips/traps.c, but I only can see the dump > > functions of cpu registers, > > In x86, it's dump_stack().
