Support for unaccepted memory was added recently, refer commit
dcdfdd40fa82 ("mm: Add support for unaccepted memory"), whereby a virtual
machine may need to accept memory before it can be used.
Do not try to access unaccepted memory because it can cause the guest to
fail.
For /proc/kcore, which is read-only and does not support mmap, this means a
read of unaccepted memory will return zeros.

Some architectures do not populate the entire range categorised by
KCORE_TEXT, so we must ensure that the kernel address we read from is
valid.
Unfortunately there is no solution currently available to do so with a
purely iterator solution so reinstate the bounce buffer in this instance
so we can use copy_from_kernel_nofault() in order to avoid page faults
when regions are unmapped.
This change partly reverts commit 2e1c0170771e ("fs/proc/kcore: avoid
bounce buffer for ktext data"), reinstating the bounce buffer, but adapts
the code to continue to use an iterator.

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the
destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear
read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort
to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

Having previously laid the foundation for converting vread() to an
iterator function, pull the trigger and do so.
This patch attempts to provide minimal refactoring and to reflect the
existing logic as best we can, for example we continue to zero portions of
memory not read, as before.
Overall, there should be no functional difference other than a performance
improvement in /proc/kcore access to vmalloc regions.
Now we have eliminated the need for a bounce buffer in read_kcore_iter(),
we dispense with it, and try to write to user memory optimistically but
with faults disabled via copy_page_to_iter_nofault(). We already have
preemption disabled by holding a spin lock. We continue faulting in until
the operation is complete.
Additionally, we must account for the fact that at any point a copy may
fail (most likely due to a fault not being able to occur), we exit
indicating fewer bytes retrieved than expected.

For the time being we still use a bounce buffer for vread(), however in
the next patch we will convert this to interact directly with the iterator
and eliminate the bounce buffer altogether.

Patch series "convert read_kcore(), vread() to use iterators", v8.
While reviewing Baoquan's recent changes to permit vread() access to
vm_map_ram regions of vmalloc allocations, Willy pointed out [1] that it
would be nice to refactor vread() as a whole, since its only user is
read_kcore() and the existing form of vread() necessitates the use of a
bounce buffer.
This patch series does exactly that, as well as adjusting how we read the
kernel text section to avoid the use of a bounce buffer in this case as
well.
This has been tested against the test case which motivated Baoquan's
changes in the first place [2] which continues to function correctly, as
do the vmalloc self tests.
This patch (of 4):
Commit df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data")
introduced the use of a bounce buffer to retrieve kernel text data for
/proc/kcore in order to avoid failures arising from hardened user copies
enabled by CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY in check_kernel_text_object().
We can avoid doing this if instead of copy_to_user() we use
_copy_to_user() which bypasses the hardening check. This is more
efficient than using a bounce buffer and simplifies the code.
We do so as part an overall effort to eliminate bounce buffer usage in the
function with an eye to converting it an iterator read.

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address. So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

The priority of hotplug memory callback is defined in a different file.
And there are some callers using numbers directly. Collect them together
into include/linux/memory.h for easy reading. This allows us to sort
their priorities more intuitively without additional comments.

mentioned in f02c69680088 ("include/linux/memory.h: implement

use hotplug_memory_notifier() directly rather than
register_hotmemory_notifier().

When list_for_each_entry() completes the iteration over the whole list
without breaking the loop, the iterator value will be a bogus pointer
computed based on the head element.
While it is safe to use the pointer to determine if it was computed based
on the head element, either with list_entry_is_head() or &pos->member ==
head, using the iterator variable after the loop should be avoided.
In preparation to limit the scope of a list iterator to the list traversal
loop, use a dedicated pointer to point to the found element [1].

hwpoisoned pages
Let's avoid reading:
1) Offline memory sections: the content of offline memory sections is
stale as the memory is effectively unused by the kernel. On s390x with
standby memory, offline memory sections (belonging to offline storage
increments) are not accessible. With virtio-mem and the hyper-v
balloon, we can have unavailable memory chunks that should not be
accessed inside offline memory sections. Last but not least, offline
memory sections might contain hwpoisoned pages which we can no longer
identify because the memmap is stale.
2) PG_offline pages: logically offline pages that are documented as
"The content of these pages is effectively stale. Such pages should
not be touched (read/write/dump/save) except by their owner.".
Examples include pages inflated in a balloon or unavailble memory
ranges inside hotplugged memory sections with virtio-mem or the hyper-v
balloon.
3) PG_hwpoison pages: Reading pages marked as hwpoisoned can be fatal.
As documented: "Accessing is not safe since it may cause another
machine check. Don't touch!"
Introduce is_page_hwpoison(), adding a comment that it is inherently racy
but best we can really do.
Reading /proc/kcore now performs similar checks as when reading
/proc/vmcore for kdump via makedumpfile: problematic pages are exclude.
It's also similar to hibernation code, however, we don't skip hwpoisoned
pages when processing pages in kernel/power/snapshot.c:saveable_page()
yet.
Note 1: we can race against memory offlining code, especially memory going
offline and getting unplugged: however, we will properly tear down the
identity mapping and handle faults gracefully when accessing this memory
from kcore code.
Note 2: we can race against drivers setting PageOffline() and turning
memory inaccessible in the hypervisor. We'll handle this in a follow-up
patch.

Patch series "fs/proc/kcore: don't read offline sections, logically offline pages and hwpoisoned pages", v3.
Looking for places where the kernel might unconditionally read
PageOffline() pages, I stumbled over /proc/kcore; turns out /proc/kcore
needs some more love to not touch some other pages we really don't want to
read -- i.e., hwpoisoned ones.
Examples for PageOffline() pages are pages inflated in a balloon, memory
unplugged via virtio-mem, and partially-present sections in memory added
by the Hyper-V balloon.
When reading pages inflated in a balloon, we essentially produce
unnecessary load in the hypervisor; holes in partially present sections in
case of Hyper-V are not accessible and already were a problem for
/proc/vmcore, fixed in makedumpfile by detecting PageOffline() pages. In
the future, virtio-mem might disallow reading unplugged memory -- marked
as PageOffline() -- in some environments, resulting in undefined behavior
when accessed; therefore, I'm trying to identify and rework all these
(corner) cases.
With this series, there is really only access via /dev/mem, /proc/vmcore
and kdb left after I ripped out /dev/kmem. kdb is an advanced corner-case
use case -- we won't care for now if someone explicitly tries to do nasty
things by reading from/writing to physical addresses we better not touch.
/dev/mem is a use case we won't support for virtio-mem, at least for now,
so we'll simply disallow mapping any virtio-mem memory via /dev/mem next.
/proc/vmcore is really only a problem when dumping the old kernel via
something that's not makedumpfile (read: basically never), however, we'll
try sanitizing that as well in the second kernel in the future.
Tested via kcore_dump:
https://github.com/schlafwandler/kcore_dump
This patch (of 6):
Commit db779ef67ffe ("proc/kcore: Remove unused kclist_add_remap()")
removed the last user of KCORE_REMAP.
Commit 595dd46ebfc1 ("vfs/proc/kcore, x86/mm/kcore: Fix SMAP fault when
dumping vsyscall user page") removed the last user of KCORE_OTHER.
Let's drop both types. While at it, also drop vaddr in "struct

ARM is the only architecture that defines CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL
which in turn enables memmap_valid_within() function that is intended to
verify existence of struct page associated with a pfn when there are holes
in the memory map.
However, the ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL also enables HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
and arch-specific pfn_valid() implementation that also deals with the holes
in the memory map.
The only two users of memmap_valid_within() call this function after
a call to pfn_valid() so the memmap_valid_within() check becomes redundant.
Remove CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL and memmap_valid_within() and rely
entirely on ARM's implementation of pfn_valid() that is now enabled
unconditionally.

On machines where the GART aperture is mapped over physical RAM,
/proc/kcore contains the GART aperture range. Accessing the GART range via
/proc/kcore results in a kernel crash.
vmcore used to have the same issue, until it was fixed with commit
2a3e83c6f96c ("x86/gart: Exclude GART aperture from vmcore")', leveraging
existing hook infrastructure in vmcore to let /proc/vmcore return zeroes
when attempting to read the aperture region, and so it won't read from the
actual memory.
Apply the same workaround for kcore. First implement the same hook
infrastructure for kcore, then reuse the hook functions introduced in the
previous vmcore fix. Just with some minor adjustment, rename some functions
for more general usage, and simplify the hook infrastructure a bit as there
is no module usage yet.

The 'm' kcore_list item could point to kclist_head, and it is incorrect to
look at m->addr / m->size in this case.
There is no choice but to run through the list of entries for every
address if we did not find any entry in the previous iteration
Reset 'm' to NULL in that case at Omar Sandoval's suggestion.

The vmcoreinfo information is useful for runtime debugging tools, not just
for crash dumps. A lot of this information can be determined by other
means, but this is much more convenient, and it only adds a page at most

The current code does a full search of the segment list every time for

page will be in the same segment. Instead, check if the previous segment
covers the current page before doing the list search.

Currently, the ELF file header, program headers, and note segment are
allocated all at once, in some icky code dating back to 2.3. Programs
tend to read the file header, then the program headers, then the note
segment, all separately, so this is a waste of effort. It's cleaner and
more efficient to handle the three separately.

There's a theoretical race condition that will cause /proc/kcore to miss
a memory hotplug event:
CPU0 CPU1
// hotplug event 1
kcore_need_update = 1
open_kcore() open_kcore()
kcore_update_ram() kcore_update_ram()
// Walk RAM // Walk RAM
__kcore_update_ram() __kcore_update_ram()
kcore_need_update = 0
// hotplug event 2
kcore_need_update = 1
kcore_need_update = 0
Note that CPU1 set up the RAM kcore entries with the state after hotplug
event 1 but cleared the flag for hotplug event 2. The RAM entries will
therefore be stale until there is another hotplug event.
This is an extremely unlikely sequence of events, but the fix makes the
synchronization saner, anyways: we serialize the entire update sequence,
which means that whoever clears the flag will always succeed in replacing
the kcore list.

The memory hotplug notifier kcore_callback() only needs kclist_lock to
prevent races with __kcore_update_ram(), but we can easily eliminate that
race by using an atomic xchg() in __kcore_update_ram(). This is
preparation for converting kclist_lock to an rwsem.

Patch series "/proc/kcore improvements", v4.
This series makes a few improvements to /proc/kcore. It fixes a couple of
small issues in v3 but is otherwise the same. Patches 1, 2, and 3 are
prep patches. Patch 4 is a fix/cleanup. Patch 5 is another prep patch.
Patches 6 and 7 are optimizations to ->read(). Patch 8 makes it possible
to enable CRASH_CORE on any architecture, which is needed for patch 9.
Patch 9 adds vmcoreinfo to /proc/kcore.
This patch (of 9):
kclist_add() is only called at init time, so there's no point in grabbing
any locks. We're also going to replace the rwlock with a rwsem, which we
don't want to try grabbing during early boot.
While we're here, mark kclist_add() with __init so that we'll get a
warning if it's called from non-init code.

elf_kcore_store_hdr() uses __pa() to find the physical address of
KCORE_RAM or KCORE_TEXT entries exported as program headers.
This trips CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL's checks, as the KCORE_TEXT entries are
not in the linear map.
Handle these two cases separately, using __pa_symbol() for the KCORE_TEXT
entries.
