I'm not particularly familiar with it, adding dri-devel as nouveau appears to be a moderated list. Glancing at the code, if nouveau_vm_create fails, the drm_open code calls nouveau_cli_destroy, which in turn calls nouveau_mm_fini (down the line) which triggered the WARN on my system. This in turn means that some stuff doesn't get freed, but it shouldn't clobber slab data. But there's probably more going on... > >> >> 0xffffffff811325b1 <+138>: e8 a0 60 56 00 callq >> 0xffffffff81698656 <__slab_alloc.constprop.68> >> 0xffffffff811325b6 <+143>: 49 89 c4 mov %rax,%r12 >> 0xffffffff811325b9 <+146>: eb 27 jmp 0xffffffff811325e2 >> <__kmalloc_track_caller+187> >> 0xffffffff811325bb <+148>: 49 63 45 20 movslq 0x20(%r13),%rax >> 0xffffffff811325bf <+152>: 48 8d 4a 01 lea 0x1(%rdx),%rcx >> 0xffffffff811325c3 <+156>: 49 8b 7d 00 mov 0x0(%r13),%rdi >> 0xffffffff811325c7 <+160>: 49 8b 1c 04 mov (%r12,%rax,1),%rbx >> 0xffffffff811325cb <+164>: 4c 89 e0 mov %r12,%rax >> 0xffffffff811325ce <+167>: 48 8d 37 lea (%rdi),%rsi >> 0xffffffff811325d1 <+170>: e8 3a 38 1b 00 callq >> 0xffffffff812e5e10 <this_cpu_cmpxchg16b_emu> >> >> The GPF happens at +160, which is in the argument setup for the >> cmpxchg in slab_alloc_node.
