Hi Joe, first, I'm sorry for the lack of response so far. Maybe you've already noticed but the selftests fail. Well, at least in my VM. When test_klp_convert1.ko is loaded, the process is killed with [ 518.041826] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 [ 518.042816] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 518.043393] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 518.043981] PGD 0 P4D 0 [ 518.044185] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI [ 518.044518] CPU: 2 PID: 2255 Comm: insmod Tainted: G O K 5.1.0-klp_convert_v4-193435-g67748576637e #2 [ 518.045784] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.12.1-0-ga5cab58-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 [ 518.046940] RIP: 0010:test_klp_convert_init+0x1c/0x40 [test_klp_convert1] [ 518.047611] Code: 1b a0 48 89 c6 e9 a8 c0 f4 e0 0f 1f 40 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 53 48 c7 c7 00 30 1b a0 e8 5e 33 f6 e0 85 c0 89 c3 74 04 89 d8 5b c3 <48> 8b 35 5d ef e4 5f 48 c7 c7 28 20 1b a0 e8 75 c0 f4 e0 e8 6c ff [ 518.049779] RSP: 0018:ffffc90000f37cc8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 518.050243] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000027de0 [ 518.050922] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000006 RDI: ffff88807ab54f40 [ 518.051619] RBP: ffffffffa01b1080 R08: 0000000096efde7a R09: 0000000000000001 [ 518.052332] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 00000000ffffffff [ 518.053012] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffff888078b55000 R15: ffffc90000f37ea0 [ 518.053714] FS: 00007febece1fb80(0000) GS:ffff88807d400000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 518.054514] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 518.055078] CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 000000007a56a000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 [ 518.055818] Call Trace: [ 518.056007] do_one_initcall+0x6a/0x2da [ 518.056340] ? do_init_module+0x22/0x230 [ 518.056702] ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held+0x96/0xa0 [ 518.057125] ? kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x284/0x2e0 [ 518.057493] do_init_module+0x5a/0x230 [ 518.057900] load_module+0x17bc/0x1f50 [ 518.058214] ? __symbol_put+0x40/0x40 [ 518.058499] ? vfs_read+0x12d/0x160 [ 518.058766] __do_sys_finit_module+0x83/0xc0 [ 518.059122] do_syscall_64+0x57/0x190 [ 518.059407] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe ... It crashes right in test_klp_convert_init() when print_*() using supposed-to-be-converted symbols are called. I'll debug it next week. Can you reproduce it too? Regards, Miroslav PS: it is probably not a coincidence that I come across selftests failures right before I leave for a holiday...
