The kernel_ip() filter is used mostly by the DS/LBR code to look at the branch addresses, but Intel PT also uses it to validate the address filter offsets for kernel addresses, for which it is not sufficient: supplying something in bits 64:48 that's not a sign extension of the lower address bits (like 0xf00d000000000000) throws a #GP. This patch adds address validation for the user supplied kernel filters. Reported-by:
