I've been running some stress test using stress-ng with a kernel with some debug options enabled, such as KASAN and friends (See the config below).
I saw it in rc4 and the decode instructions are a bit off (as it is here also - search for mavabs in dmesg below and you will find something as `(bad)`, so I though it was a machine issue. But now I see it again, and I am sharing for awareness.
This is happening in upstream kernel against the following commit d206a76d7d2726 ("Linux 6.8-rc6")
This is the exercpt that shows before the crash:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000014: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000000a0-0x00000000000000a7]
This is the stack that is getting it
