Well that's ugly. We seem to have passed a non-slab address into kfree().
void kfree(const void *x) { struct page *page; void *object = (void *)x;
if (unlikely(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(x))) return;
page = virt_to_head_page(x); if (unlikely(!PageSlab(page))) { BUG_ON(!PageCompound(page));
doing BUG_ON(!PageCompound) is a rather odd way of reporting that.
I'm unsure what could have caused this. Could you have a play around please? Set all the memory debug options, try using slab instead of slub, etc?
