I am commit 2339e91d0e6609e17943a0ab3c3c8c4044760c05, the config is basically yours but updated for newer compiler and with builtin modules: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/9af234617749aa4eada67ba8c2e4f46c/raw/d0e09ddf255962313a82bb552c3fc0d832fa6844/gistfile1.txt TITLE: WARNING in note_page MAINTAINERS: [dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx luto@xxxxxxxxxx peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx mingo@xxxxxxxxxx bp@xxxxxxxxx hpa@xxxxxxxxx x86@xxxxxxxxxx linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] ------------[ cut here ]------------ x86/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address native_usergs_sysret64+0x0/0x10 WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:263 note_wx arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:262 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:263 note_page+0x800/0xaf0 arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:302 Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ...
