Hi, Christian, thanks for reply! From radeon_cs_parser_init:
```
	if (user_chunk.chunk_id == RADEON_CHUNK_ID_IB) {
			if (!p->rdev || !(p->rdev->flags & RADEON_IS_AGP))

            /****** chenli: chunks[0] come here and continue! ******/

				continue;
		}

		p->chunks[i].kdata = kvmalloc_array(size, sizeof(uint32_t), GFP_KERNEL);
```
In my case, chunks[0] is not allocated because it is just get continued, so it's not
wired that kdata in "memcpy(parser->ib.ptr, ib_chunk->kdata, ib_chunk->length_dw * 4);"
trigger the invalid address.
