Subject: Kernel Oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
0000000000000050; IP is at blk_mq_poll+0xa0/0x2e0
Hi All
As part of my testing of IO polling [1] I am seeing a NULL pointer dereference oops that seems to have been introduced in the preparation for 4.11. The kernel oops output is below and this seems to be due to blk_mq_tag_to_rq returning NULL in blk_mq_poll in blk-mq.c. I have not had a chance to bisect this down to a single commit yet but the same test works fine in 4.10 but not in 4.11-rc6. I will try and get a better bisect and send on more information when I get it.
I am running the following simple shell script which always triggers the Oops. Note this script needs some tweaking to work on 4.11 and earlier since the some things were moved from sysfs to debugfs in the 4.11 and 4.12 trees.
#!/bin/bash
BLOCK=nvme1n1
DEV=/dev/${BLOCK}
echo "Testing polling on ${DEV}"
# Display the inital polling settings for this device...
cat /sys/block/${BLOCK}/queue/io_poll

# Display the polling results and stats
cat /sys/kernel/debug/block/${BLOCK}/mq/poll_stat
