PMD = 0 is fine I guess, addr == 0 is not mapped. > Comment over thread_group_cputime() talks about dead tasks accounting This comment simply means that we also need to read the accumulated counters in tsk->signal. > which might be relevant as we're seeing not mapped page hierarchy so > something must have gone away recently but we try to look at it. This is called under ->siglock, we can't race with exit/etc. But this doesn't matter, it is not that we (say) get t == NULL or something like this. RIP == 0, and this looks "impossible", I do not see indirect function calls in this paths. > [42460.389625] Call Trace: > [42460.389635] [<ffffffff810813d9>] ? task_sched_runtime+0x99/0xc0 > [42460.389643] [<ffffffff81088b5c>] thread_group_cputime+0x17c/0x2d0 Could you identify somehow the line which matches task_sched_runtime+0x99 ? Probably do_task_delta_exec()...
