Vince Weaver reported the following bug when KASAN is enabled: [ 205.748005] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in snb_uncore_imc_event_del+0x6c/0xa0 at addr ffff8800caa43768 [ 205.758324] Read of size 8 by task perf_fuzzer/6618 It's caused by accessing box->event_list. For client IMC, there are no generic counters. It defines its own fixed free running counters. So event_list and n_events are unused. They can be removed safely, which fixes the bug. ( There's still the separate question of how uninitialized state snuck into this data structure - but that's a separate fix. ) Reported-by:
