Kernel Stack vs User Mode Stack
Hi,
I am new to the linux kernel development area. I want to know what is the difference between kernel mode stack and user mode stack? Does each process has a user mode stack and a kernel mode stack?? Or Each process has a user mode stack and there is only one kernel mode stack that is shared by all processes in the kernel mode?

I have a multithreaded usermode program(actually a daemon) which is in hanged state.
To debug it I tried attaching the process to gdb, but the gdb hangs.
gstack also gets hanged.
