What were you trying to do that didn't work?
System crashed with an invalid address for a cred->group_info in cred_fscmp:

Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:
internal kernel-5.14.0-378.el9.x86_64
How reproducible:
unknown, crash experienced once thus far
Steps to reproduce
unknown
Expected results
no crash
Actual results
the crashing instruction:
0xffffffffa3b3b4e3 <cred_fscmp+0x53>: movslq 0x4(%rdx),%rsi RDX: 6b6b6b6b6b6b6b6b RSI: ffff8ab810ba19c0 RDI: ffff8a25a2c5b940
where %rdx contains a struct group_info, and came from %rdi+0x98 (cred->group_info) slightly earlier:
0xffffffffa3b3b4c6 <cred_fscmp+0x36>: mov 0x98(%rdi),%rdx 0xffffffffa3b3b4cd <cred_fscmp+0x3d>: mov 0x98(%rsi),%rcx 0xffffffffa3b3b4d4 <cred_fscmp+0x44>: cmp %rcx,%rdx 0xffffffffa3b3b4d7 <cred_fscmp+0x47>: je 0xffffffffa3b3b529 <cred_fscmp+0x99> 0xffffffffa3b3b4d9 <cred_fscmp+0x49>: test %rdx,%rdx 0xffffffffa3b3b4dc <cred_fscmp+0x4c>: je 0xffffffffa3b3b515 <cred_fscmp+0x85> 0xffffffffa3b3b4de <cred_fscmp+0x4e>: test %rcx,%rcx 0xffffffffa3b3b4e1 <cred_fscmp+0x51>: je 0xffffffffa3b3b524 <cred_fscmp+0x94> 0xffffffffa3b3b4e3 <cred_fscmp+0x53>: movslq 0x4(%rdx),%rsi
however %rdi+0x98 contains a different (and expected) value:
crash> cred.group_info ffff8a25a2c5b940 group_info = 0xffffffffa565ed90 <init_groups>,
so %rdx should not have the bogus value
