From: Alexey Dobriyan adobriyan@gmail.com

I was adding custom tracepoint to the kernel, grabbed full F34 kernel .config, disabled modules and booted whole shebang as VM kernel.

Then did

perf record -a -e ...

It crashed:

general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x435f5346592e4243: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 1 PID: 842 Comm: cat Not tainted 5.12.6+ #26 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-1.fc33 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:t_show+0x22/0xd0

Then reproducer was narrowed to

# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/printk_formats

Original F34 kernel with modules didn't crash.

So I started to disable options and after disabling AFS everything started working again.

The root cause is that AFS was placing char arrays content into a section full of _pointers_ to strings with predictable consequences.

Non canonical address 435f5346592e4243 is "CB.YFS_" which came from CM_NAME macro.

The fix is to create char array and pointer to it separatedly.

Steps to reproduce:

CONFIG_AFS=y CONFIG_TRACING=y

# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/printk_formats
