I haven't looked at the code in the bxnt ethernet driver, I simply know that machine boots fine on v6.2.0-rc3, but fails to boot with linux-next. So I started an automatic git bisect, which returned: 439a1bcac648 ("fortify: Use __builtin_dynamic_object_size() when available") $ grep CC_VERSION .config CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT="gcc (GCC) 12.2.1 20221121 (Red Hat 12.2.1-4)" CONFIG_GCC_VERSION=120201 $ grep FORTIFY .config CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y dmesg output: <0>[ 10.805253] detected buffer overflow in strnlen <4>[ 10.810683] ------------[ cut here ]------------ <2>[ 10.816035] kernel BUG at lib/string_helpers.c:1027! <4>[ 10.821753] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI <4>[ 10.822737] CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.2.0-rc3-next-20230112+ #4 <4>[ 10.834787] Hardware name: Supermicro Super Server/H12SSL-NT, BIOS 2.4 04/14/2022 <4>[ 10.839875] RIP: 0010:fortify_panic+0xf/0x11 <4>[ 10.844962] Code: e0 e8 da 83 0a ff e9 31 45 6d ff 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 48 89 fe 48 c7 c7 78 69 d6 9f e8 01 ea fc ff <0f> 0b 48 8b 4c 24 18 48 8b 54 24 10 4c 8d 44 24 25 48 c7 c7 b6 69 <4>[ 10.865321] RSP: 0018:ffffb547c005bb98 EFLAGS: 00010246 <4>[ 10.870406] RAX: 0000000000000023 RBX: ffff94f0582bc400 RCX: 0000000000000000 <4>[ 10.880584] RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 00000000ffffdfff RDI: 00000000ffffffff <4>[ 10.885672] RBP: ffff94f0582bc424 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: ffffb547c005ba60 <4>[ 10.895849] R10: 0000000000000003 R11: ffffffffa0182448 R12: 696c66666f282074 <4>[ 10.900937] R13: 736574206b636162 R14: 0000000000000001 R15: ffff94f0545f8b40 <4>[ 10.911113] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff950f07380000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 <4>[ 10.916201] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 <4>[ 10.926382] CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 000000204c05a000 CR4: 0000000000350ee0 <4>[ 10.931470] Call Trace: <6>[ 10.936317] ata9: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.936745] <TASK> <4>[ 10.936745] bnxt_ethtool_init.cold+0x18/0x18 <4>[ 10.936745] ? dma_pool_free+0x14d/0x160 <6>[ 10.942591] ata10: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.942663] bnxt_fw_init_one_p2+0x18d/0x5e0 <6>[ 10.949046] ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.949841] bnxt_init_one+0x401/0xf10 <6>[ 10.958451] ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.958854] local_pci_probe+0x41/0x80 <6>[ 10.968114] ata3: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.968892] pci_device_probe+0x1e2/0x210 <6>[ 10.977259] ata8: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.977657] really_probe+0xde/0x380 <6>[ 10.986406] ata5: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.986817] ? pm_runtime_barrier+0x50/0x90 <4>[ 10.986817] __driver_probe_device+0x78/0x170 <6>[ 10.996042] ata7: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 10.996978] driver_probe_device+0x1f/0x90 <4>[ 10.996978] __driver_attach+0xd2/0x1c0 <4>[ 10.996978] ? __pfx___driver_attach+0x10/0x10 <4>[ 10.996978] bus_for_each_dev+0x65/0x90 <4>[ 11.047368] bus_add_driver+0x1b1/0x200 <4>[ 11.052640] driver_register+0x89/0xe0 <4>[ 11.057487] ? __pfx_bnxt_init+0x10/0x10 <4>[ 11.061634] bnxt_init+0x20/0x33 <4>[ 11.065015] do_one_initcall+0x5b/0x340 <4>[ 11.070105] ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held+0x3f/0x80 <4>[ 11.075198] kernel_init_freeable+0x29e/0x2ee <4>[ 11.080635] ? __pfx_kernel_init+0x10/0x10 <4>[ 11.085379] kernel_init+0x16/0x140 <6>[ 11.087743] ata16: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 11.086528] ret_from_fork+0x2c/0x50 <4>[ 11.086528] </TASK> <6>[ 11.094437] ata17: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) <4>[ 11.094645] Modules linked in: <4>[ 11.097999] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- <6>[ 11.100194] ata18: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) Kind regards, Niklas
