Currently, arch_stack_walk() can only get the full stack information including NMI. This is because the implementation of arch_stack_walk() is forced to ignore the information passed by the regs parameter and use the current stack information instead. For some detection systems like KFENCE, only partial stack information is needed. In particular, the stack frame where the interrupt occurred. To support KFENCE, this patch modifies the implementation of the arch_stack_walk() function so that if this function is called with the regs argument passed, it retains all the stack information in regs and uses it to provide accurate information.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
