https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190071 Bug ID: 190071 Summary: The patch "reiserfs: switch to generic_{get,set,remove}xattr()" introduced with 4.4.27 causes kernel panic on root mount Product: File System Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 4.4.37 Hardware: i386 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: blocking Priority: P1 Component: ReiserFS Assignee: reiserfs-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: t.himmelbauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No The patch "reiserfs: switch to generic_{get,set,remove}xattr()" commit be90a09bd915e417feae76d9a72c2a37dc5cf1b7 in 4.4.x-series (introduced there with 4.4.27) causes a x86 server (tested there with vanilla kernel 4.4.37) to panic when it tries to mount the reiserfs root device (fsck didn't find any errors and --clean-attributes didn't help either). Reverting the patch causes the kernel to boot without any errors, but probably there is something wrong with the generic_getxattr or xattr_resolve_name. According to the commit it is "commit 79a628d14ec7ee9adfdc3ce04343d5ff7ec20c18 upstream". This is the message from display when the kernel panic happened. c158b940 f69a6744 f6030a40 f641eb8c f60da558 f683df2c c11775ef 00000000 Call Trace c10cecb5 generic_getxattr+0x1c/0x3f c10cec99 ? xattr_resolve_name+0x46/0x46 c11773ee get_vfs_caps_from_disk + 0x41/0xbd c11775ef cap_bprm_set_creds + 0x185/0x4a4 c10bb593 prepare_binprm+0xbe/0xf1 c10bb5e3 ? count.constprop.41 + 0x1d/0x6f c10bbbff do_execvat_common+0x31b/0x4f0 c10bbde8 do_execve+0x14/0x16 c100033c run_init_process+0x1c/0x1e c100034a try_to_run_init_process+0xc/0x2e c13d0984 kernel_init+0x74/0xb0 c13d47c9 ret_from_kernel_thread + 0x21/0x38 c13d0910 ? reset_init+0x64/0x64 Code e5 53 8b 58 20 8b 5b 18 8b 5b 4c 85 db 74 04 ff d3 eb 02 31 c0 5b 5d c3 55 89 e5 57 56 53 51 8b 3a 89 55 b0 85 ff 74 23 8d 58 04 <8b> 00 85 c0 74 27 8b 30 89 f9 8a 16 84 d2 74 14 38 11 75 04 41 EIP: [<c10cec66>] xattr_resolve_name+0x13/0x46 SS:ESP 0068:f683de90 CR2: 0000 0000 0000 0000 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
