[CCing Greg and stable and regressions list] Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker. Top-posting for once, to make this easily accessible to everyone. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but since 6.8.10 we afaics have below regression report about a general protection fault as well as two reports about NFSd related NULL pointer dereferences[1] that got some attention[2]. From a quick look I saw no fixes for those queued for the next 6.8.y release. And the series might be EOL soon. Hmmm. That sounds not really good. Is there some easy way to fix this? Chuck, you earlier mentioned (see quote below) that Greg pulled in three changes as dep into 6.8.10 that might be unneeded. Might reverting all three be the best way forward? Ciao, Thorsten [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAK2bqVJoT3yy2m0OmTnqH9EAKkj6O1iTk42EyyMtvvxKh6YDKg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ and https://lore.kernel.org/all/A8DQDS.ZXN0FMYZ3DIM1@xxxxxxxxx/ [2] https://x.com/spendergrsec/status/1793489498443252143 On 24.05.24 20:21, Chuck Lever III wrote: >> On May 24, 2024, at 4:59 AM, Jaroslav Pulchart <jaroslav.pulchart@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >>> >>>> >>>> On Wed, May 22, 2024 at 04:36:57AM -0400, Jaroslav Pulchart wrote: >>>>> Hello, >>>>> >>>>> I would like to report some issue causing a "general protection fault" >>>>> crash (constantly) after we updated the kernel from 6.8.9 to 6.8.10. >>>>> This is triggered when monitoring is using nfsstat on a server where >>>>> nfsd is running. >>>>> >>>>> [ 3049.260633] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical >>>>> address 0x66fb103e19e9cc89: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI >>>>> [ 3049.261628] CPU: 22 PID: 74991 Comm: nfsstat Tainted: G >>>>> E 6.8.10-1.gdc.el9.x86_64 #1 >>>>> [ 3049.262336] Hardware name: RDO OpenStack Compute/RHEL, BIOS >>>>> edk2-20240214-2.el9 02/14/2024 >>>>> [ 3049.263003] RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x19/0x40 >>>>> [ 3049.263487] Code: cc 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 >>>>> 90 0f 1f 44 00 00 41 54 9c 41 5c fa 65 ff 05 a6 92 f5 42 31 c0 ba 01 >>>>> 00 00 00 <f0> 0f b1 17 75 0a 4c 89 e0 41 5c c3 cc cc cc cc 89 c6 e8 d0 >>>>> 07 00 >>>>> [ 3049.264882] RSP: 0018:ffffb1bca6b9bd00 EFLAGS: 00010046 >>>>> [ 3049.265365] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 66fb103e19e9c989 RCX: 0000000000000001 >>>>> [ 3049.265953] RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: 66fb103e19e9cc89 >>>>> [ 3049.266542] RBP: ffffffffc15df280 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffffa049a1785cb8 >>>>> [ 3049.267112] R10: ffffb1bca6b9bd70 R11: ffffa04964e49000 R12: 0000000000000246 >>>>> [ 3049.267702] R13: 66fb103e19e9cc89 R14: ffffa048445590a0 R15: 0000000000000001 >>>>> [ 3049.268278] FS: 00007fa3ddf03740(0000) GS:ffffa05703d00000(0000) >>>>> knlGS:0000000000000000 >>>>> [ 3049.268928] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 >>>>> [ 3049.269443] CR2: 00007fa3dddfca50 CR3: 0000000342d1e004 CR4: 0000000000770ef0 >>>>> [ 3049.270025] PKRU: 55555554 >>>>> [ 3049.270371] Call Trace: >>>>> [ 3049.270723] <TASK> >>>>> [ 3049.271035] ?
