Hi Kees Cook/Luis,
We are observing one kernel crash in next_tgid function through
getdents64 path. Call stack is as shown below:
-000|has_group_leader_pid(inline)
-000|next_tgid(
| [X20] ns = 0xFFFFFF87CABB1AC0,
| [locdesc] iter = (
| [locdesc] tgid = 424,
| [locdesc] task = ?))
| [X21] p = 0xFFFFFFD0FFFFF948
| [X21] task = 0xFFFFFFD0FFFFF948
-001|proc_pid_readdir(
| [X20] file = 0xFFFFFFD1AC60FC40,
| [X19] ctx = 0xFFFFFF8027363E40)
| [X21] ns = 0xFFFFFF87CABB1AC0
-002|proc_root_readdir(
| [X20] file = 0xFFFFFFD1AC60FC40,
| [X19] ctx = 0xFFFFFF8027363E40)
-003|iterate_dir(
| [X19] file = 0xFFFFFFD1AC60FC40,
| [X22] ctx = 0xFFFFFF8027363E40)
| [X23] inode = 0xFFFFFFD1F20246D0
-004|SYSC_getdents64(inline)
-004|sys_getdents64(

| [X19] count = 4200)
| [X19] count = 4200
| [X20] f = ([X20] file = 0xAC60FC43AC60FC40, [X20] flags = 1207898624)
| [X0] error = -1720
-005|el0_svc_naked(asm)

From this call stack,task: 0xFFFFFFD0FFFFF948, seems to be invalid.
As(from ramdumps) it doesn't have any valid fields. And while trying to
access the fields of this task struct in has_group_leader_pid, abort is
happening.
From the dumps, its not clear why the task struct is coming to be some
invalid (Possibly task has already exited). This issue is observed
during normal monkey testing for long hours.
Could you please provide some pointers which could help in debugging
this issue further.
Thanks,
Jitendra
