When running kfence_test, I found some testcases failed like this: # test_out_of_bounds_read: EXPECTATION FAILED at mm/kfence/kfence_test.c:346 Expected report_matches(&expect) to be true, but is false not ok 1 - test_out_of_bounds_read The corresponding call-trace is: BUG: KFENCE: out-of-bounds read in kunit_try_run_case+0x38/0x84 Out-of-bounds read at 0x(____ptrval____) (32B right of kfence-#10): kunit_try_run_case+0x38/0x84 kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x12/0x1e kthread+0xc8/0xde ret_from_exception+0x0/0xc The kfence_test using the first frame of call trace to check whether the testcase is succeed or not. Commit6a00ef4493("riscv: eliminate unreliable __builtin_frame_address(1)") skip first frame for all case, which results the kfence_test failed. Indeed, we only need to skip the first frame for case (task==NULL || task==current). With this patch, the call-trace will be: BUG: KFENCE: out-of-bounds read in test_out_of_bounds_read+0x88/0x19e Out-of-bounds read at 0x(____ptrval____) (1B left of kfence-#7): test_out_of_bounds_read+0x88/0x19e kunit_try_run_case+0x38/0x84 kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x12/0x1e kthread+0xc8/0xde ret_from_exception+0x0/0xc Fixes:6a00ef4493("riscv: eliminate unreliable __builtin_frame_address(1)") Signed-off-by: Liu Shixin <liushixin2@huawei.com> Tested-by: Samuel Holland <samuel@sholland.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221207025038.1022045-1-liushixin2@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
