Dear ARM developers, could you please help me to find the reason of this problem?
Hi,
mem_cgroup_from_obj(): ffff80000836cf40: d503245f bti c ffff80000836cf44: d503201f nop ffff80000836cf48: d503201f nop ffff80000836cf4c: d503233f paciasp ffff80000836cf50: d503201f nop ffff80000836cf54: d2e00021 mov x1, #0x1000000000000 // #281474976710656 ffff80000836cf58: 8b010001 add x1, x0, x1 ffff80000836cf5c: b25657e4 mov x4, #0xfffffc0000000000 // #-4398046511104 ffff80000836cf60: d34cfc21 lsr x1, x1, #12 ffff80000836cf64: d37ae421 lsl x1, x1, #6 ffff80000836cf68: 8b040022 add x2, x1, x4 ffff80000836cf6c: f9400443 ldr x3, [x2, #8]

x0 = 0xffff80000af09740 is an argument of mem_cgroup_from_obj() according to System.map it is init_net
This issue is caused by calling virt_to_page() on address of static variable init_net. Arm64 consider that addresses of static variables are not valid virtual addresses. On x86_64 the same API works without any problem.
Unfortunately I do not understand the cause of the problem. I do not see any bugs in my patch. I'm using an existing API, mem_cgroup_from_obj(), to find the memory cgroup used to account for the specified object. In particular, in the current case, I wanted to get the memory cgroup of the specified network namespace by the name taken from for_each_net(). The first object in this list is the static structure unit_net
root@test:~# cat /proc/kallsyms |grep -w _data ffff80000a110000 D _data root@test:~# cat /proc/kallsyms |grep -w _end ffff80000a500000 B _end root@test:~# cat /proc/kallsyms |grep -w init_net ffff80000a4eb980 B init_net
the init_net is located in data section, on arm64, it is allowed by vmalloc, see
map_kernel_segment(pgdp, _data, _end, PAGE_KERNEL, &vmlinux_data, 0, 0);
and the arm has same behavior.
We could let init_net be allocated dynamically, but I think it could change a lot.
Any better sugguestion, Catalin?
or add vmalloc check in mem_cgroup_from_obj()?
