[ Upstream commit 9b044614be12d78d3a93767708b8d02fb7dfa9b0 ] Running lib_ubsan.ko on arm64 (without CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP) panics the kernel: [ 31.616546] Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: test_ubsan_out_of_bounds+0x158/0x158 [test_ubsan] [ 31.646817] CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 179 Comm: insmod Not tainted 6.15.0-rc2 #1 PREEMPT [ 31.648153] Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) [ 31.648970] Call trace: [ 31.649345] show_stack+0x18/0x24 (C) [ 31.650960] dump_stack_lvl+0x40/0x84 [ 31.651559] dump_stack+0x18/0x24 [ 31.652264] panic+0x138/0x3b4 [ 31.652812] __ktime_get_real_seconds+0x0/0x10 [ 31.653540] test_ubsan_load_invalid_value+0x0/0xa8 [test_ubsan] [ 31.654388] init_module+0x24/0xff4 [test_ubsan] [ 31.655077] do_one_initcall+0xd4/0x280 [ 31.655680] do_init_module+0x58/0x2b4 That happens because the test corrupts other data in the stack: 400: d5384108 mrs x8, sp_el0 404: f9426d08 ldr x8, [x8, #1240] 408: f85f83a9 ldur x9, [x29, #-8] 40c: eb09011f cmp x8, x9 410: 54000301 b.ne 470 <test_ubsan_out_of_bounds+0x154> // b.any As there is no guarantee the compiler will order the local variables as declared in the module: volatile char above[4] = { }; /* Protect surrounding memory. */ volatile int arr[4]; volatile char below[4] = { }; /* Protect surrounding memory. */ There is another problem where the out-of-bound index is 5 which is larger than the extra surrounding memory for protection. So, use a struct to enforce the ordering, and fix the index to be 4. Also, remove some of the volatiles and rely on OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() Signed-off-by: Mostafa Saleh <smostafa@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250415203354.4109415-1-smostafa@google.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.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.
