As Marco pointed out, commit 2810c1e99867 ("kunit: Fix wild-memory-access bug in kunit_free_suite_set()") causes test suites to run while the test module is still in MODULE_STATE_COMING. In that state, the module is not fully initialized, lacking sysfs, module_memory, args, init function which causes null-ptr-deref of using fake devices below. Since load_module() notify MODULE_STATE_COMING in prepare_coming_module(), and then init sysfs and args etc. in parse_args() and mod_sysfs_setup(), after that it notify MODULE_STATE_LIVE in do_init_module(), and fake driver in the test suits depend on them. So the test suits should be executed when notify MODULE_STATE_LIVE. But the kunit_free_suite_set() in kunit_module_exit() depends on the success of kunit_filter_suites() in kunit_module_init(). The best practice is to alloc and init resource when notify MODULE_STATE_COMING and free them when notify MODULE_STATE_GOING. So split the kunit_module_exec() from kunit_module_init() to run test suits when MODULE_STATE_LIVE, call kunit_filter_suites() and allocate memory in kunit_module_init() and call kunit_free_suite_set() in kunit_module_exit() to free the memory. So if load_module() succeeds and notify module state as below, it calls kunit_module_init(), kunit_module_exec() and kunit_module_exit(), which will work ok. The mod->state state machine when load_module() succeeds: kunit_filter_suites() kunit_module_exec() MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED ---> MODULE_STATE_COMING ---> MODULE_STATE_LIVE ^ | | | +---------------- MODULE_STATE_GOING <---------+ kunit_free_suite_set() If load_module() fails and notify module state as below, it call kunit_module_init() and kunit_module_exit(), which will also work ok. The mod->state state machine when load_module() fails at mod_sysfs_setup(): kunit_filter_suites() kunit_free_suite_set() MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED ---> MODULE_STATE_COMING ---> MODULE_STATE_GOING ^ | | | +-----------------------------------------------+ general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000003: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000018-0x000000000000001f] CPU: 1 PID: 1868 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G W N 6.6.0-rc3+ #61 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:kobject_namespace+0x71/0x150 Code: 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 80 3c 02 00 0f 85 cd 00 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 49 8b 5c 24 28 48 8d 7b 18 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 <80> 3c 02 00 0f 85 c1 00 00 00 48 8b 43 18 48 85 c0 74 79 4c 89 e7 RSP: 0018:ffff88810f797288 EFLAGS: 00010206 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000003 RSI: ffffffff847b4900 RDI: 0000000000000018 RBP: ffff88810ba08940 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffffed1021ef2e0f R10: ffff88810f79707f R11: 746e756f63666572 R12: ffffffffa0241990 R13: ffff88810ba08958 R14: ffff88810ba08968 R15: ffffffff84ac6c20 FS: 00007ff9f2186540(0000) GS:ffff888119c80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007fff73a2cff8 CR3: 000000010b77b002 CR4: 0000000000770ee0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <TASK> ?
