I don't think this check is needed. eu-stack needs to be attached to get
the register values and dwfl_linux_proc_find_elf makes sure the process
is attached before calling elf_from_remote_memory.
When I remove the check on 2.6.32 (tested on kernel-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64) the
testcase really FAILs:
.../elfutils/src/stack: dwfl_thread_getframes tid 26376 at 0x4006c8 in
.../elfutils/tests/deleted: no matching address range
I can debug it further but I guess at least this patch could go in as is (with
the kernel check).
Thanks,
Jan
