ancestors[] is a flexible array member that needs level + 1 slots to
hold all ancestors including self (indices 0..level), but kzalloc_flex()
only allocates `level` slots:
sch = kzalloc_flex(*sch, ancestors, level);
...
sch->ancestors[level] = sch; /* one past the end */
For the root scheduler (level = 0), zero slots are allocated and
ancestors[0] is written immediately past the end of the object.
KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in scx_alloc_and_add_sched+0x1c17/0x1d10
Write of size 8 at addr
ffff888066b56538 by task scx_enable_help/667
The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
allocated 1336-byte region [
ffff888066b56000,
ffff888066b56538)
Fix by passing level + 1 to kzalloc_flex().
Tested with vng + scx_lavd, KASAN no longer triggers.
