There is a crash in relay_file_read, as the var from
point to the end of last subbuf.
The oops looks something like:
pc : __arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
lr : relay_file_read+0x20c/0x2c8
Call trace:
__arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
full_proxy_read+0x68/0x98
vfs_read+0xb0/0x1d0
ksys_read+0x6c/0xf0
__arm64_sys_read+0x20/0x28
el0_svc_common.constprop.3+0x84/0x108
do_el0_svc+0x74/0x90
el0_svc+0x1c/0x28
el0_sync_handler+0x88/0xb0
el0_sync+0x148/0x180

We get the condition by analyzing the vmcore:
1). The last produced byte and last consumed byte
both at the end of the last subbuf
2). A softirq who will call function(e.g __blk_add_trace)
to write relay buffer occurs when an program calling
function relay_file_read_avail.
relay_file_read
relay_file_read_avail
relay_file_read_consume(buf, 0, 0);
//interrupted by softirq who will write subbuf
....
return 1;
//read_start point to the end of the last subbuf
read_start = relay_file_read_start_pos
//avail is equal to subsize
avail = relay_file_read_subbuf_avail
//from points to an invalid memory address
from = buf->start + read_start
//system is crashed
copy_to_user(buffer, from, avail)
