Hi, I hit boot failure on s390x host starting from 4.8-rc1 kernel, 4.7 kernel works fine. And I bisected to this commit 444d13ff10fb commit 444d13ff10fb13bc3e64859c3cf9ce43dcfeb075 Author: Jessica Yu <jeyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jul 27 12:06:21 2016 +0930 modules: add ro_after_init support Add ro_after_init support for modules by adding a new page-aligned section in the module layout (after rodata) for ro_after_init data and enabling RO protection for that section after module init runs. Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu <jeyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and I've only hit this panic on s390x hosts. Console log is appended at the end of email. Thanks, Eryu
Hi Eryu, thanks for reporting this. It's a bit difficult to tell from the stacktrace alone what's really going on, so I'll attempt to reproduce this on a 4.8-rc1 kernel once I get my hands on an s390x system and report back.
