One of the vmalloc stress test case triggers the kernel BUG(): <snip> [60.562151] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [60.562154] kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:512! [60.562206] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI [60.562247] CPU: 0 PID: 430 Comm: vmalloc_test/0 Not tainted 4.20.0+ #161 [60.562293] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1 04/01/2014 [60.562351] RIP: 0010:alloc_vmap_area+0x36f/0x390 <snip> it can happen due to big align request resulting in overflowing of calculated address, i.e. it becomes 0 after ALIGN()'s fixup.

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.
