[PATCH] rcu: Dump memory object info if callback is invalid
From: Zhen Lei
Date: Fri Nov 04 2022 - 22:38:06 EST
The callback rhp->func becomes NULL is usually caused by use-after-free.
So the information about 'rhp' is very useful. Unfortunately, nothing is
printed at the moment. Look at the panic output below, if no vmcore is
generated, there is almost no way to analyze it except to know that the
bug exists.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0
... ...
PC is at 0x0
LR is at rcu_do_batch+0x1c0/0x3b8
... ...
(rcu_do_batch) from (rcu_core+0x1d4/0x284)
(rcu_core) from (__do_softirq+0x24c/0x344)
(__do_softirq) from (__irq_exit_rcu+0x64/0x108)
(__irq_exit_rcu) from (irq_exit+0x8/0x10)
(irq_exit) from (__handle_domain_irq+0x74/0x9c)
(__handle_domain_irq) from (gic_handle_irq+0x8c/0x98)
(gic_handle_irq) from (__irq_svc+0x5c/0x94)
(__irq_svc) from (arch_cpu_idle+0x20/0x3c)
(arch_cpu_idle) from (default_idle_call+0x4c/0x78)
(default_idle_call) from (do_idle+0xf8/0x150)
(do_idle) from (cpu_startup_entry+0x18/0x20)
(cpu_startup_entry) from (0xc01530)
So add mem_dump_obj(rhp) to output some information, for example:
slab kmalloc-256 start ffff410c45019900 pointer offset 0 size 256
Now we know the size of the memory block and the offset of rcu_head. Then
we can check the code. It's going to be slow and tiring, but it's better
than no way to start.
