RIP is always near the GS segment. As GS points to the per_cpu area, we
may somehow be getting our GS screwed up. I'm not sure why that would
affect the RIP. Maybe stacks are not being processed properly somewhere?
It's strange because I can either trigger it on the first try, or it
never triggers at all??

Your GS is ffff880148000000 and the RIP was: <ffff880145cc0000>
Here's some of the crashes I've had:
RIP: ffff88007dc042a0 GS:ffff88007e200000
RIP: ffff88007de08ea8 GS:ffff88007de00000
Interesting, the above is one of the few that the RIP is greater than GS.
RIP: ffff88007dc042a0 GS:ffff88007e280000
RIP: ffff88007dc042a0 GS:ffff88007e280000
The above are the same but two different runs, actually, a third run had
the same as well.
Dave, I'm looking into your other issue (irqsoff), that looks totally
unrelated.
Andi and Peter, to bring you up to speed, we are getting this very
strange crash when enabling function tracing. At first it looked like a
kernel compiler issue as after doing a make clean the problem went away.
But I've now done two make cleans and have had the build still produce
the error. But it either errors on the first instantiation of the
function tracer or it never errors on it. Well, that's not totally true.
I do have the ftrace start up tests enabled so the function tracer is
enabled on boot up for testing. But that never seems to error. Only when
the system is live does it produce this error.
Now this code now has the new "breakpoint" logic. That is, instead of
running stop machine, it adds a break point to the first byte of the
nop, does a IPI to all CPUS (to sync), modify the rest of the nop, send
IPI, and then remove the break point.
But on some boxes, this crashes. But the symptom is always the same. The
RIP is that of something similar to the GS. Perhaps we have a stack
mismatch? But this still doesn't make sense, as the GS is never saved on
the stack.
Any ideas?
