Patch series "sections: Unify kernel sections range check and use", v4.
There are three head files(kallsyms.h, kernel.h and sections.h) which
include the kernel sections range check, let's make some cleanup and unify
them.
1. cleanup arch specific text/data check and fix address boundary check
in kallsyms.h
2. make all the basic/core kernel range check function into sections.h
3. update all the callers, and use the helper in sections.h to simplify
the code
After this series, we have 5 APIs about kernel sections range check in
sections.h
* is_kernel_rodata() --- already in sections.h
* is_kernel_core_data() --- come from core_kernel_data() in kernel.h
* is_kernel_inittext() --- come from kernel.h and kallsyms.h
* __is_kernel_text() --- add new internal helper
* __is_kernel() --- add new internal helper
Note: For the last two helpers, people should not use directly, consider to
use corresponding function in kallsyms.h.
This patch (of 11):
Remove arch specific text and data check after commit 4ba66a976072 ("arch:
remove blackfin port"), no need arch-specific text/data check.

Commit b212921b13bd ("elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf
executable mappings") reverted back to using MAP_FIXED to map ELF LOAD
segments because it was found that the segments in some binaries overlap
and can cause MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE to fail.
The original intent of MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in the ELF loader was to
prevent the silent clobbering of an existing mapping (e.g. stack) by
the ELF image, which could lead to exploitable conditions. Quoting
commit 4ed28639519c ("fs, elf: drop MAP_FIXED usage from elf_map"),
which originally introduced the use of MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in the
loader:
Both load_elf_interp and load_elf_binary rely on elf_map to map
segments [to a specific] address and they use MAP_FIXED to enforce
that. This is however [a] dangerous thing prone to silent data
corruption which can be even exploitable.
...
Let's take CVE-2017-1000253 as an example ... we could end up mapping
[the executable] over the existing stack ... The [stack layout] issue
has been fixed since then ... So we should be safe and any [similar]
attack should be impractical. On the other hand this is just too
subtle [an] assumption ... it can break quite easily and [be] hard to
spot.
...
Address this [weakness] by changing MAP_FIXED to the newly added
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. This will mean that mmap will fail if there is
an existing mapping clashing with the requested one [instead of
silently] clobbering it.
Then processing ET_DYN binaries the loader already calculates a total
size for the image when the first segment is mapped, maps the entire
image, and then unmaps the remainder before the remaining segments are
then individually mapped.
To avoid the earlier problems (legitimate overlapping LOAD segments
specified in the ELF), apply the same logic to ET_EXEC binaries as well.
For both ET_EXEC and ET_DYN+INTERP use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for the
initial total size mapping and then use MAP_FIXED to build the final
(possibly legitimately overlapping) mappings. For ET_DYN w/out INTERP,
continue to map at a system-selected address in the mmap region.

sg_miter_stop() checks for disabled preemption before unmapping a page
via kunmap_atomic(). The kernel doc mentions under context that
preemption must be disabled if SG_MITER_ATOMIC is set.
There is no active requirement for the caller to have preemption
disabled before invoking sg_mitter_stop(). The sg_mitter_*()
implementation itself has no such requirement.
In fact, preemption is disabled by kmap_atomic() as part of
sg_miter_next() and remains disabled as long as there is an active
SG_MITER_ATOMIC mapping. This is a consequence of kmap_atomic() and not
a requirement for sg_mitter_*() itself.
The user chooses SG_MITER_ATOMIC because it uses the API in a context
where blocking is not possible or blocking is possible but he chooses a
lower weight mapping which is not available on all CPUs and so it might
need less overhead to setup at a price that now preemption will be
disabled.
The kmap_atomic() implementation on PREEMPT_RT does not disable
preemption. It simply disables CPU migration to ensure that the task
remains on the same CPU while the caller remains preemptible. This in
turn triggers the warning in sg_miter_stop() because preemption is
allowed.
The PREEMPT_RT and !PREEMPT_RT implementation of kmap_atomic() disable
pagefaults as a requirement. It is sufficient to check for this instead
of disabled preemption.
Check for disabled pagefault handler in the SG_MITER_ATOMIC case.
Remove the "preemption disabled" part from the kernel doc as the
sg_milter*() implementation does not care.

Patch series "lib, stackdepot: check stackdepot handle before accessing slabs", v2.
PATCH-1: Checks validity of a stackdepot handle before proceeding to
access stackdepot slab/objects.
PATCH-2: Adds a helper in stackdepot, to allow users to print stack
entries just by specifying the stackdepot handle. It also changes such
users to use this new interface.
PATCH-3: Adds a helper in stackdepot, to allow users to print stack
entries into buffers just by specifying the stackdepot handle and
destination buffer. It also changes such users to use this new interface.
This patch (of 3):
stack_depot_save allocates slabs that will be used for storing objects in
future.If this slab allocation fails we may get to a situation where space
allocation for a new stack_record fails, causing stack_depot_save to
return 0 as handle. If user of this handle ends up invoking
stack_depot_fetch with this handle value, current implementation of
stack_depot_fetch will end up using slab from wrong index. To avoid this
check handle value at the beginning.

_Static_assert() is evaluated already in the compiler's frontend, and
gives a somehat more to-the-point error, compared to the BUILD_BUG_ON
macro, which only fires after the optimizer has had a chance to
eliminate calls to functions marked with __attribute__((error)). In
theory, this might make builds a tiny bit faster.
There's also a little less gunk in the error message emitted:
lib/sort.c: In function `foo':
include/linux/build_bug.h:78:41: error: static assertion failed: "pointer type mismatch in container_of()"
78 | #define __static_assert(expr, msg, ...) _Static_assert(expr, msg)

322 | _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__)

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt cleaning it up by splitting out container_of() and
typeof_member() macros.
For time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.
Note, there are _a lot_ of headers and modules that include kernel.h
solely for one of these macros and this allows to unburden compiler for
the twisted inclusion paths and to make new code cleaner in the future.

Problem Description:
When running running ~128 parallel instances of
TZ=/etc/localtime ps -fe >/dev/null
on a 128CPU machine, the %sys utilization reaches 97%, and perf shows
the following code path as being responsible for heavy contention on the
d_lockref spinlock:
walk_component()
lookup_fast()
d_revalidate()
pid_revalidate() // returns -ECHILD
unlazy_child()
lockref_get_not_dead(&nd->path.dentry->d_lockref) <-- contention
The reason is that pid_revalidate() is triggering a drop from RCU to ref
path walk mode. All concurrent path lookups thus try to grab a
reference to the dentry for /proc/, before re-executing pid_revalidate()
and then stepping into the /proc/$pid directory. Thus there is huge
spinlock contention.
This patch allows pid_revalidate() to execute in RCU mode, meaning that
the path lookup can successfully enter the /proc/$pid directory while
still in RCU mode. Later on, the path lookup may still drop into ref
mode, but the contention will be much reduced at this point.
By applying this patch, %sys utilization falls to around 85% under the
same workload, and the number of ps processes executed per unit time
increases by 3x-4x. Although this particular workload is a bit
contrived, we have seen some large collections of eager monitoring
scripts which produced similarly high %sys time due to contention in the
/proc directory.
As a result this patch, Al noted that several procfs methods which were
only called in ref-walk mode could now be called from RCU mode. To
ensure that this patch is safe, I audited all the inode get_link and
permission() implementations, as well as dentry d_revalidate()
implementations, in fs/proc. The purpose here is to ensure that they
either are safe to call in RCU (i.e. don't sleep) or correctly bail out
of RCU mode if they don't support it. My analysis shows that all
at-risk procfs methods are safe to call under RCU, and thus this patch
is safe.
Procfs RCU-walk Analysis:
This analysis is up-to-date with 5.15-rc3. When called under RCU mode,
these functions have arguments as follows:
* get_link() receives a NULL dentry pointer when called in RCU mode.
* permission() receives MAY_NOT_BLOCK in the mode parameter when called
from RCU.
* d_revalidate() receives LOOKUP_RCU in flags.
For the following functions, either they are trivially RCU safe, or they
explicitly bail at the beginning of the function when they run:
proc_ns_get_link (bails out)
proc_get_link (RCU safe)
proc_pid_get_link (bails out)
map_files_d_revalidate (bails out)
map_misc_d_revalidate (bails out)
proc_net_d_revalidate (RCU safe)
proc_sys_revalidate (bails out, also not under /proc/$pid)
tid_fd_revalidate (bails out)
proc_sys_permission (not under /proc/$pid)
The remainder of the functions require a bit more detail:
* proc_fd_permission: RCU safe. All of the body of this function is
under rcu_read_lock(), except generic_permission() which declares
itself RCU safe in its documentation string.
* proc_self_get_link uses GFP_ATOMIC in the RCU case, so it is RCU aware
and otherwise looks safe. The same is true of proc_thread_self_get_link.
* proc_map_files_get_link: calls ns_capable, which calls capable(), and
thus calls into the audit code (see note #1 below). The remainder is
just a call to the trivially safe proc_pid_get_link().
* proc_pid_permission: calls ptrace_may_access(), which appears RCU
safe, although it does call into the "security_ptrace_access_check()"
hook, which looks safe under smack and selinux. Just the audit code is
of concern. Also uses get_task_struct() and put_task_struct(), see
note #2 below.
* proc_tid_comm_permission: Appears safe, though calls put_task_struct
(see note #2 below).
Note #1:
Most of the concern of RCU safety has centered around the audit code.
However, since b17ec22fb339 ("selinux: slow_avc_audit has become
non-blocking"), it's safe to call this code under RCU. So all of the
above are safe by my estimation.
Note #2: get_task_struct() and put_task_struct():
The majority of get_task_struct() is under RCU read lock, and in any
case it is a simple increment. But put_task_struct() is complex, given
that it could at some point free the task struct, and this process has
many steps which I couldn't manually verify. However, several other
places call put_task_struct() under RCU, so it appears safe to use
here too (see kernel/hung_task.c:165 or rcu/tree-stall.h:296)
Patch description:
pid_revalidate() drops from RCU into REF lookup mode. When many threads
are resolving paths within /proc in parallel, this can result in heavy
spinlock contention on d_lockref as each thread tries to grab a
reference to the /proc dentry (and drop it shortly thereafter).
Investigation indicates that it is not necessary to drop RCU in
pid_revalidate(), as no RCU data is modified and the function never
sleeps. So, remove the LOOKUP_RCU check.

Although virtio-mem currently supports reading unplugged memory in the
hypervisor, this will change in the future, indicated to the device via
a new feature flag.
We similarly sanitized /proc/kcore access recently. [1]
Let's register a vmcore callback, to allow vmcore code to check if a PFN
belonging to a virtio-mem device is either currently plugged and should
be dumped or is currently unplugged and should not be accessed, instead
mapping the shared zeropage or returning zeroes when reading.
This is important when not capturing /proc/vmcore via tools like
"makedumpfile" that can identify logically unplugged virtio-mem memory
via PG_offline in the memmap, but simply by e.g., copying the file.
Distributions that support virtio-mem+kdump have to make sure that the
virtio_mem module will be part of the kdump kernel or the kdump initrd;
dracut was recently [2] extended to include virtio-mem in the generated
initrd. As long as no special kdump kernels are used, this will
automatically make sure that virtio-mem will be around in the kdump
initrd and sanitize /proc/vmcore access -- with dracut.
With this series, we'll send one virtio-mem state request for every ~2
MiB chunk of virtio-mem memory indicated in the vmcore that we intend to
read/map.
In the future, we might want to allow building virtio-mem for kdump mode
only, even without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG and friends: this way, we could
support special stripped-down kdump kernels that have many other config
options disabled; we'll tackle that once required. Further, we might
want to try sensing bigger blocks (e.g., memory sections) first before
falling back to device blocks on demand.
Tested with Fedora rawhide, which contains a recent kexec-tools version
(considering "System RAM (virtio_mem)" when creating the vmcore header)
and a recent dracut version (including the virtio_mem module in the
kdump initrd).

virtio_mem_init_hotplug()
Let's prepare for a new virtio-mem kdump mode in which we don't actually
hot(un)plug any memory but only observe the state of device blocks.

Let's support multiple registered callbacks, making sure that
registering vmcore callbacks cannot fail. Make the callback return a
bool instead of an int, handling how to deal with errors internally.
Drop unused HAVE_OLDMEM_PFN_IS_RAM.
We soon want to make use of this infrastructure from other drivers:
virtio-mem, registering one callback for each virtio-mem device, to
prevent reading unplugged virtio-mem memory.
Handle it via a generic vmcore_cb structure, prepared for future
extensions: for example, once we support virtio-mem on s390x where the
vmcore is completely constructed in the second kernel, we want to detect
and add plugged virtio-mem memory ranges to the vmcore in order for them
to get dumped properly.
Handle corner cases that are unexpected and shouldn't happen in sane
setups: registering a callback after the vmcore has already been opened
(warn only) and unregistering a callback after the vmcore has already been
opened (warn and essentially read only zeroes from that point on).

The callback should deal with errors internally, it doesn't make sense
to expose these via pfn_is_ram(). We'll rework the callbacks next.
Right now we consider errors as if "it's RAM"; no functional change.

HVMOP_get_mem_type is not expected to fail, "This call failing is
indication of something going quite wrong and it would be good to know
about this." [1]
Let's add a pr_warn_once().
