Yes, this only works for user space stacks, but that is sufficient since with ORC kernel stacks are solved (IMO) and it avoids all the issues with trying to mlock debuginfo of all processes that you mentioned. The NMI handler would still unwind the kernel stack.

because this would still be an in-kernel dwarf unwinder and I would expect an instant reject, and because I am lazy and/or don’t care enough about this problem or linux to work on it. Even if people could be persuaded, I don’t have the interest or temperance to debate this with LKML.
