I have the following stack trace and crash information after the Linux kernel failed to load:

What does the Code mean? Also can I know the exact x86 instruction (not the C function) that caused the kernel to crash?

EDIT: Updated the code. I was trying to run Linux in a virtualized environment.


回答1:


Code is a hexdump of x86 machine code (presumably 32-bit mode from a legacy 32-bit kernel since it only dumped 32-bit register contents).

The byte marked with <> is where EIP is pointing, so it's the faulting instruction inside ex_handler_fprestore

Feed it to a disassembler, e.g. https://defuse.ca/online-x86-assembler.htm#disassembly2, or Linux's crashdump decoding script https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/scripts/decodecode


Remember that x86 machine code uses a variable-length encoding that can't be unambiguously decoded backwards. But this is compiler-generated code, so at least we can assume there aren't supposed to be overlapping instructions or static data mixed with code (because x86 has no benefit for that). If we find the start of a function in compiler-generated code, the rest of the instructions will all be "sane".

The 00 byte looks like part of a previous instruction or padding between functions: Decoding from there would give us add BYTE PTR [ebp-0x77],dl which is plausible, in eax,0x57 after that isn't, for a non-driver function.

Much more likely is that the 0x89 byte is the opcode of a MOV instruction.

If we drop the 00 byte and start from 55 (which is push ebp), we get a normal function body including the stack-frame setup prologue you'd expect if compiled with -Os or -fno-omit-frame-pointer.

In general, you can drop bytes one at a time until you get a sane-looking decoding that at least has an instruction-boundary on the faulting instruction. (But some experience is required for "sane-looking"; disassembly may have gotten in sync by chance after starting wrong. That's not rare for x86 machine code.)

# skipped the 00 byte which would desync decoding
0:  55                      push   ebp
1:  89 e5                   mov    ebp,esp
3:  57                      push   edi
4:  8b 48 04                mov    ecx,DWORD PTR [eax+0x4]      # EAX = 1st function arg, ECX = tmp
7:  8d 44 08 04             lea    eax,[eax+ecx*1+0x4]
b:  89 42 30                mov    DWORD PTR [edx+0x30],eax     # EDX = 2rd function arg
e:  80 3d e7 fb a0 c1 00    cmp    BYTE PTR ds:0xc1a0fbe7,0x0
15: 75 16                   jne    0x2d
17: c6 05 e7 fb a0 c1 01    mov    BYTE PTR ds:0xc1a0fbe7,0x1
1e: 50                      push   eax
1f: 68 b4 38 87 c1          push   0xc18738b4
24: e8 98 ba 00 00          call   0xbac1
29: 0f 0b                   ud2                     ### <=== EIP points here

# stuff after this probably isn't real code; it's unreachable
2b: 58                      pop    eax
2c: 5a                      pop    edx
2d: 90                      nop
2e: 8d 74 26 00             lea    esi,[esi+eiz*1+0x0]
32: eb                      .byte 0xeb

So this function really ends with a call to a noreturn function with stack args. (32-bit x86 Linux kernels are built with -mregparm=3 so the first 3 args are in EAX, EDX, ECX in that order, so either this function is not regparm or it has more than 3 args. You can see this function uses EAX and EDX as incoming args: reading them before writing.)

But it's not a jmp tailcall for some reason; maybe for exception backtracing it wants this function's stack frame on the stack. (Which might explain the push ebp / mov ebp,esp even if this kernel was built with -fomit-frame-pointer as part of -O2.)

You'd have to look at the C source for ex_handler_fprestore to guess why that might be.

ud2 is an illegal instruction. The compiler (or inline asm?) put it there so it would fault if the function returned. It's a clear sign that this path of execution is supposed to be unreachable, or is marked to intentionally trap as an assert() type of mechanism. (In Linux, look for BUG_ON()).
