The patch titled Subject: mm: fix BUG splat with kvmalloc + GFP_ATOMIC has been added to the -mm mm-hotfixes-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-fix-bug-splat-with-kvmalloc-gfp_atomic.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-fix-bug-splat-with-kvmalloc-gfp_atomic.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-hotfixes-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: fix BUG splat with kvmalloc + GFP_ATOMIC Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2022 17:16:50 +0200 Martin Zaharinov reports BUG with 5.19.10 kernel: kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:2437! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 28 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/28 Tainted: G W O 5.19.9 #1 [..] RIP: 0010:__get_vm_area_node+0x120/0x130 __vmalloc_node_range+0x96/0x1e0 kvmalloc_node+0x92/0xb0 bucket_table_alloc.isra.0+0x47/0x140 rhashtable_try_insert+0x3a4/0x440 rhashtable_insert_slow+0x1b/0x30 [..] bucket_table_alloc uses kvzalloc(GPF_ATOMIC). If kmalloc fails, this now falls through to vmalloc and hits code paths that assume GFP_KERNEL.
