FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT i386
ELF kernel
ELF KLD
>Description:
DDB can't locate names to stack frame, when frames include pointer
from kernel loadable module
>How-To-Repeat:
- Build kernel with DDB support.
- Load linux KLD (launch linux command).
Throw to DDB, then
db> b linux_open
db> c
Run any linux command, for example:
> /compat/linux/bin/bash
Breakpoint at linux_open: pushl %ebp
db> trace

>Fix:
Apply the following patch.

After applying this patch, in the same circumstance, trace will be printing:
db> trace
linux_open(c4324280,c45f3f80,28051dc6,3,28054a10) at linux_open

Xint0x80_syscall() at Xint0x80_syscall+0x26
P.S. It's looks like that the /sys/kern/link_aout.c have the same kind
of problem.
