and look into the function "print_context_stack()" which will teach u how
to identify the start/end of stack, whether the address is valid, how to
traverse from one frame to another (using RBP / EBP of course, so CONFIG
for framepointer is definitely needed).

I am trying to find the start and end address of the userspace stack. I
see in the task_struct there is start_stack. But I could not find end_start
anywhere in the kernel code ?

Can someone please tell me how to find the end of the stack ?

Thanks,
Xin
