[ Upstream commit a1b29ba2f2c171b9bea73be993bfdf0a62d37d15 ] The following KASAN warning was reported in our kernel. BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in get_wchan+0x188/0x250 Read of size 4 at addr d216f958 by task ps/14437 CPU: 3 PID: 14437 Comm: ps Tainted: G O 5.10.0 #1 Call Trace: [daa63858] [c0654348] dump_stack+0x9c/0xe4 (unreliable) [daa63888] [c035cf0c] print_address_description.constprop.3+0x8c/0x570 [daa63908] [c035d6bc] kasan_report+0x1ac/0x218 [daa63948] [c00496e8] get_wchan+0x188/0x250 [daa63978] [c0461ec8] do_task_stat+0xce8/0xe60 [daa63b98] [c0455ac8] proc_single_show+0x98/0x170 [daa63bc8] [c03cab8c] seq_read_iter+0x1ec/0x900 [daa63c38] [c03cb47c] seq_read+0x1dc/0x290 [daa63d68] [c037fc94] vfs_read+0x164/0x510 [daa63ea8] [c03808e4] ksys_read+0x144/0x1d0 [daa63f38] [c005b1dc] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x38 --- interrupt: c00 at 0x8fa8f4 LR = 0x8fa8cc The buggy address belongs to the page: page:98ebcdd2 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:00000000 index:0x2 pfn:0x1216f flags: 0x0() raw: 00000000 00000000 01010122 00000000 00000002 00000000 ffffffff 00000000 raw: 00000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: d216f800: 00 00 00 00 00 f1 f1 f1 f1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 d216f880: f2 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 >d216f900: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 f1 f1 f1 f1 00 ^ d216f980: f2 f2 f2 f2 f2 f2 f2 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 d216fa00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 After looking into this issue, I find the buggy address belongs to the task stack region. It seems KASAN has something wrong. I look into the code of __get_wchan in x86 architecture and find the same issue has been resolved by the commit f7d27c35ddff ("x86/mm, kasan: Silence KASAN warnings in get_wchan()"). The solution could be applied to powerpc architecture too. As Andrey Ryabinin said, get_wchan() is racy by design, it may access volatile stack of running task, thus it may access redzone in a stack frame and cause KASAN to warn about this. Use READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to silence these warnings.

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.
