Hi,
We are working on a memory error detector AddressSanitizer for Linux
kernel (https://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/wiki/AddressSanitizerForKernel),
it can detect use-after-free and buffer-overflow errors.
Here is a new report from the tool:

Indeed, get_wchan ensures that fp<stack+THREAD_SIZE, but then dereferences fp+8:
434 if (fp < (unsigned long)stack ||
435 fp >= (unsigned long)stack+THREAD_SIZE)
436 return 0;
437 ip = *(u64 *)(fp+8);
It must check that fp+8<stack+THREAD_SIZE.
As far as I see, the bug can lead to garbage return values or in the
worst case to crash.

Thanks for the report.
The change looks good to me. Can you please submit a formal signed off patch
to x86@kernel.org ?

Hi Andi,
Wolfram has a patch for it.
Wolfram, please send your patch to x86@kernel.org.

Can you CC this to lkml as well? x86@ isn't a public list, IIUC.
Please note that these bounds checks aren't correct to begin with. Since
a pointer is being dereferenced, the end boundry must be reduced by
sizeof(unsigned long) as well.
It looks like process_32.c suffers the same problems, too.

I can't see the end boundary problem in process_32.c. The end checks
are properly reduced with the top_esp and top_ebp macros.
All I can see in process_32.c is that the check
if (bp < stack_page || bp > top_ebp+stack_page)
could be replaced by:
if (bp < stack_page-sizeof(unsigned long) || bp > top_ebp+stack_page)
but that is a relaxation and not an over/underrun fix.
Can you elaborate what problem you see in process_32.c?
Regards,
Wolfram.

Ah, yes, sorry, this appears to only be a problem in process_64.c. I didn't look
closely enough. I see now that top_esp and top_ebp correctly reduce the size of
THREAD_SIZE. Thanks!
