Ok, some more info. decodecoding your "Code:" section gives this (yep,
all the instruction bytes were repeated so I could've made a mistake
there while removing the duplicates):
[ 15.921486] Code: 00 83 3d c0 14 d0 41 00 0f 85 18 05 00 00 ba 34 03 00 00 b8 cb e0 4e 41 e8 ee 74 fb ff e9 04 05 00 00 85 db 0f 84 fc 04 00 00 90 <3e> ff 83 04 01 00 00 a1 48 48 77 41 8b b7 5c 03 00 00 85 c0 0f

39: 5c 03
3b: 00 00 add %al,(%rax)
3d: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax
3f:
Now, if I look at __lock_acquire objdump here, I get:
2688: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax
268a: e9 49 0b 00 00 jmp 31d8 <__lock_acquire+0xba6>
268f: 8b 4d c4 mov -0x3c(%ebp),%ecx
2692: 8b 44 91 04 mov 0x4(%ecx,%edx,4),%eax
2696: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax
2698: 75 0e jne 26a8 <__lock_acquire+0x76>
269a: 8b 45 c4 mov -0x3c(%ebp),%eax
269d: 31 c9 xor %ecx,%ecx
269f: e8 12 e5 ff ff call bb6 <register_lock_class>
26a4: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax
26a6: 74 e0 je 2688 <__lock_acquire+0x56>
26a8: ff 80 04 01 00 00 incl 0x104(%eax) <---
26ae: 8b 96 68 03 00 00 mov 0x368(%esi),%edx
which can be correlated with a lot of fuzz but the INC seems to look
the same and the offset within __lock_acquire is almost in the same
vicinity.
Which looks like this snippet here:
.L752:
movl -60(%ebp), %eax # %sfp,
xorl %ecx, %ecx #
call register_lock_class #
testl %eax, %eax # class
je .L970 #,
.L753:
#APP
# 95 "/w/kernel/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/atomic.h" 1
incl 260(%eax) # MEM[(struct atomic_t *)D.29327_54].counter <---
# 0 "" 2
#NO_APP
and this has to be:
/*
* Not cached?
*/
if (unlikely(!class)) {
class = register_lock_class(lock, subclass, 0);
if (!class)
return 0;
}
atomic_inc((atomic_t *)&class->ops); <---
So looking at the decode above, we have the class pointer in %ebx
(decodecode somehow can't differentiate between 32- and 64-bit code
dump, probably needs a flag or so) and it is 0x00003f76. Which doesn't
look like a valid kernel pointer to me.
And 0x00003f76 + 0x104 gives exactly 0x0000407a which is the address at
which we #PF:
[ 15.921486] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000407a
[ 15.921486] IP: [<41071ab0>] __lock_acquire.isra.19+0x3e0/0xb00
More hmmm...
