DF-0796 / run.log
DF-0796 baseline run on DragonFly 6.5-DEVELOPMENT #0 (unpatched audit-source kernel) Command (as root): kldload /root/df0796/df0796_harness.ko Harness loads, synthesises a hammer2_inode whose cluster has a NULL interior chain slot (clindex=0 < nchains=2, array[0].chain == NULL -- the "gaps may remain" state from hammer2_vfsops.c:820-838), and calls hammer2_inode_chain_and_parent(ip, 0, &parent, HAMMER2_RESOLVE_SHARED). Result on #0 (BUG PRESENT): DF-0796: loading NULL-cluster-slot harness DF-0796: invoking hammer2_inode_chain_and_parent on inode with NULL chain slot (clindex=0, nchains=2) DF-0796: expect NULL-deref panic at hammer2_inode_chain_and_parent+0x.. (chain->parent) Fatal user address access from kernel mode from kldload at ffffffff802aad04 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x118 <-- chain->parent, chain==NULL Stopped at hammer2_inode_chain_and_parent.cold.9+0x15: movq 0x118,%rax db> ssh connection died (guest in DDB); vm.sh status => down. This is the NULL-deref DoS. (Pure DoS -- NULL deref at a fixed kernel offset, no corruption primitive, no escalation possible.)
