Consider, we queue the work, the other task already executes it and triggers use-after-free, now only now we record the stack. Moreover, I think we can trigger use-after-free here ourselves while recording the aux stack. We queued the work, and the work can cause own free, so it's not necessary live by now. > return 0; > } > > diff --git a/mm/kasan/kasan.h b/mm/kasan/kasan.h > index 3436c6bf7c0c..d300fe9415bd 100644 > --- a/mm/kasan/kasan.h > +++ b/mm/kasan/kasan.h > @@ -146,7 +146,7 @@ struct kasan_alloc_meta { > struct kasan_track alloc_track; > #ifdef CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC > /* > - * call_rcu() call stack is stored into struct kasan_alloc_meta. > + * Auxiliary stack is stored into struct kasan_alloc_meta. > * The free stack is stored into struct kasan_free_meta. > */ > depot_stack_handle_t aux_stack[2]; > -- > 2.18.0

Why record task_work_add() call stack? Syzbot reports many use-after-free issues for task_work, see [1]. After see the free stack and the current auxiliary stack, we think they are useless, we don't know where register the work, this work may be the free call stack, so that we miss the root cause and don't solve the use-after-free. Add task_work_add() call stack into KASAN auxiliary stack in order to improve KASAN report. It is useful for programmers to solve use-after-free issues.
