What version of LLVM are you using? This was fixed in 16.0.4.

Would you please apply commit 514ca14ed544 ("start_kernel: Add __no_stack_protector function attribute") to linux-6.4.y? The series ending with commit 611d4c716db0 ("x86/hyperv: Mark hv_ghcb_terminate() as noreturn") that shipped in 6.4 exposes an LLVM issue that affected 16.0.0 and 16.0.1, which was resolved in 16.0.2. When using those affected LLVM releases, the following crash at boot occurs: [ 0.181667] Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_kernel+0x3cf/0x3d0 [ 0.182621] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.4.3 #1 [ 0.182621] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.2-0-gea1b7a073390-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 [ 0.182621] Call Trace: [ 0.182621] <TASK> [ 0.182621] dump_stack_lvl+0x6a/0xa0 [ 0.182621] panic+0x124/0x2f0 [ 0.182621] ? start_kernel+0x3cf/0x3d0 [ 0.182621] ? acpi_enable+0x64/0xc0 [ 0.182621] __stack_chk_fail+0x14/0x20 [ 0.182621] start_kernel+0x3cf/0x3d0 [ 0.182621] x86_64_start_reservations+0x24/0x30 [ 0.182621] x86_64_start_kernel+0xab/0xb0 [ 0.182621] secondary_startup_64_no_verify+0x107/0x10b [ 0.182621] </TASK> [ 0.182621] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_kernel+0x3cf/0x3d0 ]--- 514ca14ed544 aims to avoid this on the Linux side. I have verified that it applies to 6.4.3 cleanly and resolves the issue there, as has Masami. If there are any issues or questions, please let me know. Cheers, Nathan
