There are two major issues on arm64 Juno-r2 on Linux stable-rc 6.9.6-rc1
Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing lkft@linaro.org
The LTP controllers cgroup_fj_stress test cases causing kernel crash on arm64 Juno-r2 with compat mode testing with stable-rc 6.9 kernel.
In the recent past I have reported this issues on Linux mainline.
LTP: fork13: kernel panic on rk3399-rock-pi-4 running mainline 6.10.rc3
it goes like this, Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address ... Insufficient stack space to handle exception! end Kernel panic - not syncing: kernel stack overflow
The LTP controllers cgroup_fj_stress test suite causing kernel oops on arm64 Juno-r2 (with the clang-night build toolchain). Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000009 Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000044 [#1] PREEMPT SMP pc : xprt_alloc_slot+0x54/0x1c8 lr : xprt_alloc_slot+0x30/0x1c8
And these are regressions? Any chance to run 'git bisect'?
it's difficult to reproduce the first one so we haven't been able to bisect it. It seemd like David and Baolin might have an idea what's causing it.
