Where are you getting your odd cc: list from?  This has nothing to do
with serial drivers...

Hi,

This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman.  You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response.  He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created.  Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.

You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:

- Your patch contains warnings and/or errors noticed by the
  scripts/checkpatch.pl tool.

- You have marked a patch with a "Fixes:" tag for a commit that is in an
  older released kernel, yet you do not have a cc: stable line in the
  signed-off-by area at all, which means that the patch will not be
  applied to any older kernel releases.  To properly fix this, please
  follow the documented rules in the
  Documetnation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst file for how to resolve
  this.

If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.

thanks,

I'm still not convinced this will fix the kasan out-of-bounds
accesses, the page can be valid but the read can happen at an offset
not initialized and trigger such errors right? I still think there is
something weird about the stack frame, as to me this should not happen
(but admittedly I don't know much about that).

Yes, but to me this is not what happens in the bug report you link:

| BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in walk_stackframe+0x130/0x2f2
arch/riscv/kernel/stacktrace.c:59
| Read of size 8 at addr ff20000006d37c38 by task swapper/1/0

So the read at address ff20000006d37c38 is not "normal" according to
KASAN (you can see there is no trap, meaning the physical mapping
exists).

| The buggy address belongs to the virtual mapping at
|  [ff20000006d30000, ff20000006d39000) created by:
| kernel_clone+0x118/0x896 kernel/fork.c:2909

The virtual address is legitimate since the vma exists ^

| The buggy address belongs to the physical page:
| page:ff1c00000250dbc0 refcount:1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000
index:0x0 pfn:0x9436f

And the physical page also exists ^

So I insist, checking that a physical mapping exists to exit the loop
is not enough, to me, the error here is that the backtrace goes "too
far" at an address where nothing was written before and then KASAN
complains about that, again, we don't take any page fault here so it's
not a problem of existing physical mapping.

blame is too strong a word for that auto-inferred hint :)

Yes, the actual problem was in a totally different place, but FWIW
here's how it happened:

Statistically, stacktrace.c and a number of other generic locations
are rather unlikely to actually contain the bug (they can, but the
chances are that it's deeper in the call stack), so syzbot, while
traversing the stack trace, skipped all frames until

[<ffffffff80fa0c7e>] fn_show_state+0x1a/0x22 drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:614
[<ffffffff80fa1152>] k_spec drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:667 [inline]
[<ffffffff80fa1152>] k_spec+0xce/0x102 drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:656
[<ffffffff80fa306c>] kbd_keycode drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:1524 [inline]
[<ffffffff80fa306c>] kbd_event+0x5fa/0xa5e drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:1543

Per MAINTAINERS, these locations belonged to "TTY LAYER AND SERIAL
DRIVERS". Therefore serial in Cc.

The automation actually attributes a lot of reports correctly, but,
unfortunately, there are also tricky cases like this.

Yep!

I believe what's happening here is one task unwinding another (starting from
whatever gets saved in switch_to()), and there's nothing that prevents that
other task from running concurrently and modifying/poisoning its stack. In
general trying to unwind a remote stack is racy and broken, but we're stuck
with a few bits of the kernel tryingto do that occasionally and so the arch
code needs to handle that without blowing up.

For KASAN specifically you'll need to access the stack with unchecked accesses
(e.g. using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to read the struct stackframe), and you'll
probably want to add some explicit checks that pointers are within stack bounds
since concurrent modification (or corruption) could result in entirely bogus
pointers.

I *think* that we do the right thing on arm64, so you might want to take a look
at arm64's unwinder in arch/arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c,
arch/arm64/include/asm/stacktrace.h, and
arch/arm64/include/asm/stacktrace/common.h.

Mark.

Thanks for that, I had already fixed the "imprecise" unwinder (when we 
don't have a frame pointer) using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() but I had not this 
use case in mind, so I'll fix that too.

And I'll check that for the stack bounds check.

Thanks again,
