OK.
I've reproduced BUG_ON by running this program which sets arg_start>arg_end:
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
enum {PAGE_SIZE=4096};
int main(void)
{
unsigned long env_start, env_end;
void *p;
p = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
#define PR_SET_MM 35
#define PR_SET_MM_ARG_START 8
#define PR_SET_MM_ARG_END 9
#define PR_SET_MM_ENV_START 10
#define PR_SET_MM_ENV_END 11
prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_START, (unsigned long)p +
PAGE_SIZE - 1, 0, 0);
prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_END, (unsigned long)p, 0, 0);
pause();
return 0;
}
