Title:
22.04 ib_mthca BUG: kernel NULL pointer, but had worked in 20.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I run some x86_64 machines with Infiniband interfaces (Mellanox
MT25204, ib_mthca driver + ib_ipoib for IP-over-IB).
This had worked fine for years under Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS and under
RHEL6 before it.
But as soon as I updated to 22.04.1 LTS -- with both its default
5.15.0-60-generic kernel and also 6.1.0-1006-oem (the latest packaged
one I could find), the IB interface doesn't work.
dmesg shows some UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warnings in mthca modules,
e.g. "shift exponent -25557 is negative". That's a bizarre number -
maybe a hint of something uninitialized?
The crippling symptom shows up within a second after that: a NULL
dereference within the ib_mthca driver -- the "BUG: kernel NULL
pointer dereference", in mthca_poll_one. The interface never sets its
RUNNING flag (as shown by ifconfig).
The rest of the system remains usable after the "BUG" message -- the
ethernet, disk, etc. drivers and other functions work as expected.
Attempting to unload the ib_mthca driver causes a kernel panic.
Is there anything I should try? Should I build a kernel from source
with debugging? I could try installing the 5.4.0 kernel from 20.04,
but would rather use something that will continue to get security
patches.
