SubjectRe: Fwd: Oops (bad memory deref) in slab_alloc() due to filp_cachep holding incorrect values

So, I ran it with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON and got Oops in just under a
second - the important thing is that probably that instead of
2.6.39-rc4 I ran 2.6.39

It was

and kdb's backtrace shows:

I looked through apparmor_capable and cap_capable and there's nothing
that could change value of 'cred' from 0xffff880120e3aee0 to 0 between
apparmor_capable() and cap_capable() (i.e. no buffer-overflow causing
functions, in fact no functions or no interesting operations at all).

Out of curiosity I looked at what runs on the other CPU, and it was:

It's very strange, cause in the first case (the problem with SLUB),
the second CPU was also stuck in this routine, and I'm kinda certain
it is the real cause of the problem (it overwrites another CPU's
stack?). My config is here:
http://alt.swiecki.net/linux_kernel/ise-test-2.6.39-kernel-config.txt
- so the question is; could somebody more familiar with kernel
internals look into /dev/urandom sys_read routines. I think they don't
play nicely with SMP PREEMPT kernel (or maybe it just runs out of
kernel stack in there and overwrites another one). Some more data
about the second thread:
