[PATCH v16 18/20] unwind_user/sframe: Duplicate registered .sframe section data on clone/fork

From: Jens Remus <hidden>
Date: 2026-05-21 14:26:27
Also in: bpf, linux-trace-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory mapping, the rest, userspace stack unwinding · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Liam R. Howlett, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds, Josh Poimboeuf, Steven Rostedt

When duplicating a process' virtual memory mappings also duplicate all
of its registered .sframe sections stored in the per-mm maple tree to
enable stacktracing using sframe of the child process.

Signed-off-by: Jens Remus <redacted>

Notes (jremus):
    Changes in v16:
    - dup_mmap(): Drop unnecessary CONFIG_HAVE_UNWIND_USER_SFRAME #ifdefs.
      (Sashiko AI)
    - dup_mmap(): Call sframe_dup_mm() prior to arch_dup_mmap(), so that
      comes last.
    
    Changes in v15:
    - New patch.
