commit 8241461536f21bbe51308a6916d1c9fb2e6b75a7 upstream. Running an SMP kernel on an UP platform not prepared for it, I encountered the following OOPS: BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on read at 0x00000034 Faulting instruction address: 0xc0a04110 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] BE PAGE_SIZE=4K SMP NR_CPUS=2 CMPCPRO Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.13.0-pmac-00001-g230fedfaad21 #5234 NIP: c0a04110 LR: c0a040d8 CTR: c0a04084 REGS: e100dda0 TRAP: 0300 Not tainted (5.13.0-pmac-00001-g230fedfaad21) MSR: 00009032 <EE,ME,IR,DR,RI> CR: 84000284 XER: 00000000 DAR: 00000034 DSISR: 20000000 GPR00: c0006bd4 e100de60 c1033320 00000000 00000000 c0942274 00000000 00000000 GPR08: 00000000 00000000 00000001 00000063 00000007 00000000 c0006f30 00000000 GPR16: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000005 GPR24: c0c67d74 c0c67f1c c0c60000 c0c67d70 c0c0c558 1efdf000 c0c00020 00000000 NIP [c0a04110] topology_init+0x8c/0x138 LR [c0a040d8] topology_init+0x54/0x138 Call Trace: [e100de60] [80808080] 0x80808080 (unreliable) [e100de90] [c0006bd4] do_one_initcall+0x48/0x1bc [e100def0] [c0a0150c] kernel_init_freeable+0x1c8/0x278 [e100df20] [c0006f44] kernel_init+0x14/0x10c [e100df30] [c00190fc] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c Instruction dump: 7c692e70 7d290194 7c035040 7c7f1b78 5529103a 546706fe 5468103a 39400001 7c641b78 40800054 80c690b4 7fb9402e <81060034> 7fbeea14 2c080000 7fa3eb78 ---[ end trace b246ffbc6bbbb6fb ]--- Fix it by checking smp_ops before using it, as already done in several other places in the arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c Fixes: 39f87561454d ("powerpc/smp: Move ppc_md.cpu_die() to smp_ops.cpu_offline_self()") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/75287841cbb8740edd44880fe60be66d489160d9.1628097995.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
