Commit: 1959a601 ("x86/dumpstack: Pin the target stack when dumping it") changed the behavior of stack traces for zombies. Before that commit, /proc/<pid>/stack reported the last execution path of the zombie before it died: [<ffffffff8105b877>] do_exit+0x6f7/0xa80 [<ffffffff8105bc79>] do_group_exit+0x39/0xa0 [<ffffffff8105bcf0>] __wake_up_parent+0x0/0x30 [<ffffffff8152dd09>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<00007fd128f9c4f9>] 0x7fd128f9c4f9 [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff After the commit, it just reports an empty stack trace. The new behavior is actually probably more correct. If the stack refcount has gone down to zero, then the task has already gone through do_exit() and isn't going to run anymore. The stack could be freed at any time and is basically gone, so reporting an empty stack makes sense. However, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() treats such a missing stack condition as an error. That can cause livepatch transition stalls if there are any unreaped zombies. Instead, just treat it as a reliable, empty stack.
