Subject: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address in pick_next_task_fair()
Date: Thu, 29 Feb 2024 07:55:25 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZeCo7STWxq+oyN2U@gmail.com> (raw)
I've been running some stress test using stress-ng with a kernel with some
debug options enabled, such as KASAN and friends (See the config below).
I saw it in rc4 and the decode instructions are a bit off (as it is here
also - search for mavabs in dmesg below and you will find something as `(bad)`,
so I though it was a machine issue. But now I see it again, and I am sharing
for awareness.
This is happening in upstream kernel against the following commit
d206a76d7d2726 ("Linux 6.8-rc6")
This is the exercpt that shows before the crash:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000014: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC KASAN
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000000a0-0x00000000000000a7]
