Hi, When CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y is enabled, I seem to be having random crashes on a ppc64be system. The bug always triggers by OpenWrt's firewall3, but in different parts of the netfilter code. See the traces below. With the default firewall3 config, the system boots fine. Then copying the config that triggers the crash, and calling firewall3, does not trigger the crash. It only seems to trigger the crash when that specific config is applied during boot. The randomness leads me to believe the problem is in the CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY* checks, but as this is really over my head, I could use some guidance. The device in question is a WatchGuard Firebox M300, based on NXP's QorIQ T2081 SoC. The OpenWrt image is built from my OpenWrt staging tree at [1]. I realize this is very OpenWrt specific, so if any additional info is needed, I'll gladly supply it. [ 26.333649] usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to SLUB object not in SLUB page?!
