Subject: Re: bug: LKRG kills VirtualBox host VMs

Hi,

Thanks for report. From what I can see LKRG is somehow right since during stack 
walk it detected code which was executed from the page which doesn't belong to 
any legally registered .text section (kernel core neither kernel module):

Nov 18 08:30:59 debian kernel:  0xffffffffc106513b
Nov 18 08:30:59 debian kernel:  0xffffffffc1065428
Nov 18 08:30:59 debian kernel:  0xffffffffc108817d
Nov 18 08:30:59 debian kernel:  0xffffffffc1088c24

However, it might be situation where VBox do some kind of JIT or any dynamic 
code generation on dynamic page. I would be able to dig-in more when I set-up 
repro environment for VirtualBox.
I can tell that I'm using VmWare and haven't seen problem under LKRG so far.

Thanks,
Adam
