The patch titled Subject: kcov: check kcov_softirq in kcov_remote_stop() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kcov-check-kcov_softirq-in-kcov_remote_stop.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kcov: check kcov_softirq in kcov_remote_stop() kcov_remote_stop() should check that the corresponding kcov_remote_start() actually found the specified remote handle and started collecting coverage. This is done by checking the per thread kcov_softirq flag. A particular failure scenario where this was observed involved a softirq with a remote coverage collection section coming between check_kcov_mode() and the access to t->kcov_area in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(). In that softirq kcov_remote_start() bailed out after kcov_remote_find() check, but the matching kcov_remote_stop() didn't check if kcov_remote_start() succeeded, and overwrote per thread kcov parameters with invalid (zero) values.
