Hi Andrey,

thanks for the report.

Although I can't see the issue in the code ...

(should be some zero initialized memory here)

The relevant code of bcm_rx_do_flush() can be found here:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/can/bcm.c#L589

static inline int bcm_rx_do_flush(struct bcm_op *op, int update,
				  unsigned int index)
{
	struct canfd_frame *lcf = op->last_frames + op->cfsiz * index;

	if ((op->last_frames) && (lcf->flags & RX_THR)) {  <<<----- !!!
		if (update)
			bcm_rx_changed(op, lcf);
		return 1;
	}
	return 0;
}


lcf->flags points into an array of struct canfd_frame at offset 5 which 
is allocated here:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/can/bcm.c#L1105

	/* create and init array for received CAN frames */
	op->last_frames = kzalloc(msg_head->nframes * op->cfsiz,
				  GFP_KERNEL);

So why does KASAN complain about accessing some kind of 32 byte cache 
when it should point into a zero initialized allocated space?

I will write some other test cases with a similar setting of options to 
check if I can trigger the instability too.

Tnx & regards,
Oliver
