+RISC-V: Unable to unwind the stack upon signals

+===============================================================
+
+So far so good, I get a proper backtrace as expected. If I let the signal trigger however, gdb is not able to unwind the stack:
+
+(gdb) c
+Continuing.
+
+Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
+0x0000004000858074 in ?? ()
+(gdb) bt
+#0  0x0000004000858074 in ?? ()
+
+
+
+I get the same behaviour for SIGSEGV and SIGILL, I didn't try other signals. Apparently this scenario works on real hardware (see linked gdb issue below), and presumably it would work with system qemu (I haven't tested that yet though). So my guess is that qemu does something differently around signal handling than the linux kernel.
