IMHO this is the right fix. If you look through the crash code, there
are plenty of cases like:
for_each_mod_mem_type(t) {
if (!lm->symtable[t])
continue;
So it shouldn't be an exception here. Just my opinion, let's see how
other people think of it. If you want to know more about the
background, you can check the patchset 7750e61fdb2a ("Support module
memory layout change on Linux 6.4"), which will give you more info.
In addition, please feel free to post your code, even if you are not
very confident of it. The mailing list is open for discussion :)
Thanks,
Tao Liu

Naveen

Not all mod_mem_type will be included for kernel modules. E.g. in the
following module case:
(gdb) p lm->symtable[0]
$1 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbad0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[1]
$2 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbb70
(gdb) p lm->symtable[2]
$3 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbc10
(gdb) p lm->symtable[3]
$4 = (struct syment *) 0x0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[4]
$5 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbcb0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[5]
$6 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbd00
(gdb) p lm->symtable[6]
$7 = (struct syment *) 0x0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[7]
$8 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbb48
mod_mem MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT(3) and MOD_INIT_RODATA(6) is not exist, which should
be skipped, otherwise a segfault will happen.

Agreed, the same style sounds better.
Sorry I didn't get your point, do you mean you prefer the following fix:
for_each_mod_mem_type(t) {
if (!lm->symtable[t])
continue;
sp = lm->symtable[t];
sp_end = lm->symend[t];
if (value < sp->value || value > sp_end->value)
continue;
rather than:
for_each_mod_mem_type(t) {
sp = lm->symtable[t];
sp_end = lm->symend[t];
if (!sp || value < sp->value || value > sp_end->value)
continue;
right? If true then I will draft v2 for this.
Thanks,
Tao Liu

No problem, the v2 is posted upstream.
