Subject: [syzbot] [net?] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request in nsim_drv_port_add (2)
Date: Sun, 01 Nov 2026 00:01:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6ae6e3d1.7fe51036.1ecf7.0016.GAE@google.com> (raw)
Hello,
syzbot found the following issue on:
HEAD commit: 36aad21d50d1 Merge tag 'ksmbd-for-7.4-rc1-part2' of git://..
git tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
console output: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/log.txt?x=1332b159580000
kernel config: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/.config?x=dc4462df6d1062fe
dashboard link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=b3fca27eb4005f0111f4
compiler: Debian clang version 22.1.8 (1~deb13u4), Debian LLD 22.1.8
C reproducer: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.c?x=1194b795580000
AI-generated root cause summary:
In netdevsim, sysfs device attributes such as 'new_port' and 'del_port' are
exposed at the device level on nsim_bus_dev without holding device_lock or
checking if the driver is bound. An access via sysfs after the driver has been
unbound, after a failed probe, or concurrently with device removal finds drvdata
set to NULL; passing this NULL pointer to priv_to_devlink() computes a negative
offset from NULL, triggering a kernel page fault crash when attempting to
acquire devlink->lock.
