RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Jeff Layton 2023-03-30 12:07:19 UTC 
Given that this fired on the grouplist and not on the unix_gid object itself is a significant hint, I think. The unix_gid object is RCU freed, but the group list is not. I think we need to ensure that the grouplist is only freed after the RCU grace period.

I have a patch that I think might fix this. Is this reliably reproducible at all? I can give you a test kernel if so.

Yes, there is a 20% probability to reproduce this problem stably using the internal
existing test case. I will test it once I get a test kernel.
Comment 5 Jeff Layton 2023-03-31 09:45:52 UTC 
Thanks for testing it! I sent the patch upstream yesterday:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/D3F3D553-C252-47FB-9D41-9C9A254557DB@oracle.com/T/#m41c9e5ad9313c80d9e083de4d1263ebf2aa9abc2

I think we should aim for 9.3.0 for this patch. I don't believe this is a regression, just a long-standing race condition that's not easy to hit.
