Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
The crash can be reproduced by running the lvm2 testsuite test
lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh for several minutes, e.g.:
while :; do make check T=shell/lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh; done
The crash happens in this call chain:
do_waker -> policy_tick -> smq_tick -> end_hotspot_period -> clear_bitset
-> memset -> __memset -- which accesses an invalid pointer in the vmalloc
area.
The work entry on the workqueue is executed even after the bitmap was
freed. The problem is that cancel_delayed_work doesn't wait for the
running work item to finish, so the work item can continue running and
re-submitting itself even after cache_postsuspend. In order to make sure
that the work item won't be running, we must use cancel_delayed_work_sync.
Also, change flush_workqueue to drain_workqueue, so that if some work item
submits itself or another work item, we are properly waiting for both of
them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
