Subject: Nbd problem now oopses.
Hi,
After turning on the debugging for allocations and locks, I
now get a kernel ooops.
[ 5628.608000] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

which seems to be:
0xc02931f1 <tcp_sendmsg+1799>: jne 0xc0293572 <tcp_sendmsg+2696>
0xc02931f7 <tcp_sendmsg+1805>: movl $0x0,0x188(%esi)
0xc0293201 <tcp_sendmsg+1815>: mov 0x1c(%esp),%ebx
0xc0293205 <tcp_sendmsg+1819>: mov %ebx,0x180(%esi)
0xc029320b <tcp_sendmsg+1825>: jmp 0xc0293572 <tcp_sendmsg+2696>
EIP points here:
0xc0293210 <tcp_sendmsg+1830>: cmpl $0x0,0x24(%esp)
0xc0293215 <tcp_sendmsg+1835>: mov 0x98(%ebx),%edx
0xc029321b <tcp_sendmsg+1841>: je 0xc0293232 <tcp_sendmsg+1864>
0xc029321d <tcp_sendmsg+1843>: mov 0x20(%esp),%ecx

0xc0293226 <tcp_sendmsg+1852>: add %edi,%eax
0xc0293228 <tcp_sendmsg+1854>: mov %ax,0x12(%edx,%ecx,8)
0xc029322d <tcp_sendmsg+1859>: jmp 0xc02932b4 <tcp_sendmsg+1994>
which is
790 if (err) {
791 /* If this page was new, give it to the
792 * socket so it does not get leaked.
793 */
794 if (!TCP_PAGE(sk)) {
795 TCP_PAGE(sk) = page;
796 TCP_OFF(sk) = 0;
797 }
798 goto do_error;
799 }
800
801 /* Update the skb. */
EIP Points here.....
802 if (merge) {
803 skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[i - 1].size +=
804 copy;
and now the question is: How can the
cmpl $0x0,0x24(%esp)
trap at address 0?
How can "if (merge)" cause a segmentation fault?
If EIP is a bit off, it could be a line erarlier or further. So, could it
crash on the jmp tcp_sendmsg+2696? I dont' thinks so.
How about "mov 0x98(%ebx),%edx"? If ebx is invalid, this should
crash. (ebx apparently holds skb if I understand things correctly).
But from the dump, ebx holds c24576b8, and if that's invalid it would
not say
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
right?
Roger.

Q: It doesn't work. A: Look buddy, doesn't work is an ambiguous statement.
Does it sit on the couch all day? Is it unemployed? Please be specific!
