Hi all,
I was fuzzing with trinity inside a KVM tools guest, running latest -next kernel,
and hit the following bug:

The code translates to the following in fs/pipe.c:alloc_pipe_info :
pipe = kzalloc(sizeof(struct pipe_inode_info), GFP_KERNEL);
if (pipe) {
pipe->bufs = kzalloc(sizeof(struct pipe_buffer) * PIPE_DEF_BUFFERS, GFP_KERNEL); <=== this
if (pipe->bufs) {
init_waitqueue_head(&pipe->wait);
Thanks,
