When booting into linux v3.13.3, I am unable to mount an nfs share on this particular hardware.  I get the same problem using v3.12.11.  Only the 3.10.x series allows normal operation.  Partial dmesg output shown inline, additional logs available upon request.

PLEASE cc me on my replies as I am not subscribed to lkml.

Hardware: Athlon XP 3200+ on an NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400 motherboard.
Distro: Arch Linux i686.

I should add that if I test the same kernel version (v3.13.3 compiled for i686) on a similar machine of the same vintage, there is not a problem.  When I looked into the `lspci -v` output on the machine that has the problems, I found that it seems to be related to the skge driver as shown below; the similar machine that does not have the problem is using the forcedeth driver so I am hypothesizing that the error is with the skge driver.

If I'd have to guess, that's trying to rcu deref that struct net_generic
*ng in net_generic() but this is only guesswork as I don't have your
.config.

Anyway, adding some more people to CC.

> I should add that if I test the same kernel version (v3.13.3 compiled for i686) on a similar machine of the same vintage, there is not a problem.  When I looked into the `lspci -v` output on the machine that has the problems, I found that it seems to be related to the skge driver as shown below; the similar machine that does not have the problem is using the forcedeth driver so I am hypothesizing that the error is with the skge driver.

Thanks for the reply, Boris.  The .config is unmodified from the Arch Distro default for 3.13.3-1 which can be found here: http://pastebin.com/LPGZ8ZqA

Yep, it is that struct net *net argument to put_pipe_version() which is NULL:

I guess you could avoid the crash if you did

	if (!net)
		return;

in put_pipe_version() but this hardly is the right solution. Someone
else has to make sense of this thing, not me. :-)

HTH.

Does the following patch help?

Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: Ensure that gss_auth isn't freed before its upcall
 messages

Fix a race in which the RPC client is shutting down while the
gss daemon is processing a downcall. If the RPC client manages to
shut down before the gss daemon is done, then the struct gss_auth
used in gss_release_msg() may have already been freed.

Trond.  Yes, your patch fixes the regression for me; tested on v3.13.3,  I do not know the process by which patches get into the next stable release (minor version).  My hope is that once peer-reviewed, this patch gets into the 3.13.4 and since the 3.12 series is not EOL yet, into 3.12.12 as well.  Thank you for the time and effort!

Trond adds stable to CC, sends it to Linus and it trickles down to
3.12.x and 3.13.x stable.

* [BUG] unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

  To: linux-nfs

When booting into linux v3.13.3, I am unable to mount an nfs share on this particular hardware.  I get the same problem using v3.12.11.  Only the 3.10.x series allows normal operation.  Partial dmesg output shown inline, additional logs available upon request.

PLEASE cc me on my replies as I am not subscribed to lkml.

Hardware: Athlon XP 3200+ on an NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400 motherboard.
Distro: Arch Linux i686.

Sorry, we all stopped thinking about 2.6.9 years ago - unless you're able
to reproduce this on a current kernel (for example, latest Fedora), the
place to report this is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/

Thanks.

It's a bug, but if you tell syscheckd to ignore the /sys directory,
the problem will *probably* be avoided. (It shouldn't be checking the
integrity of the /sys directory anyway -- it's volatile just like
/proc is.)

Hi List,

Sorry if it isn't the right place to ask this question, but I was
reported the following error in the kernel.

Syscheckd (process in the crash) is a userland (no kernel/lkm code)
file integrity checking tool that scans the system and generates the
md5/sha1 sum of all the files (if it helps to identify the problem).

I am guessing it is a bug in the kernel, since no user process should
cause this...
