Subject: [PATCH v3 07/10] stackdepot: Remove stack_depot_fetch()
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 18:56:59 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113185702.1332171-8-matt@readmodwrite.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113185702.1332171-1-matt@readmodwrite.com>
From: Matt Fleming <mfleming@cloudflare.com>
All callers now use stack_depot_fetch_into(), stack_depot_print() or
stack_depot_snprint(). stack_depot_fetch() hands out a pointer into
depot storage, which leaks how frames are stored internally by
stackdepot. This will be undesirable when compressed frame support
lands in a later patch.
Add a KUnit test that stack_depot_snprint() output and return value
match stack_trace_snprint(), including truncation.
