2024-12-02proc/kcore: use percpu_rw_semaphore for kclist_lockOmar Sandoval
The list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore is protected by a rw_semaphore. We lock it for reading on every read from /proc/kcore. This is very heavy, especially since it is rarely locked for writing. Since we want to strongly favor read lock performance, convert it to a percpu_rw_semaphore. I also experimented with percpu_ref and SRCU, but this change was the simplest and the fastest. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by yet another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous two changes, from 195 nanoseconds per read to 175.

2024-12-02proc/kcore: don't walk list on every readOmar Sandoval
We maintain a list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore, which usually has 10-20 entries. Currently, every single read from /proc/kcore walks the entire list in order to count the number of entries and compute some offsets. These values only change when the list of memory ranges changes, which is very rare (only when memory is hot(un)plugged). We can cache the values when the list is populated to avoid these redundant walks. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous change, from 215 nanoseconds per read to 195.

2024-12-02proc/kcore: mark proc entry as permanentOmar Sandoval
drgn reads from /proc/kcore to debug the running kernel. For many drgn scripts, /proc/kcore is actually a bottleneck. use_pde() and unuse_pde() in prog_reg_read() show up hot in profiles. Since the entry for /proc/kcore can never be removed, this is useless overhead that can be trivially avoided by marking the entry as permanent. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by about 20 nanoseconds, from 235 nanoseconds per read to 215.

2024-10-09fs/proc/kcore.c: allow translation of physical memory addressesAlexander Gordeev
When /proc/kcore is read an attempt to read the first two pages results in HW-specific page swap on s390 and another (so called prefix) pages are accessed instead. That leads to a wrong read. Allow architecture-specific translation of memory addresses using kc_xlate_dev_mem_ptr() and kc_unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() callbacks similarily to /dev/mem xlate_dev_mem_ptr() and unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() callbacks. That way an architecture can deal with specific physical memory ranges. Re-use the existing /dev/mem callback implementation on s390, which handles the described prefix pages swapping correctly. For other architectures the default callback is basically NOP. It is expected the condition (vaddr == __va(__pa(vaddr))) always holds true for KCORE_RAM memory type.

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.

2023-08-04fs/proc/kcore: reinstate bounce buffer for KCORE_TEXT regionsLorenzo Stoakes
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.

2023-04-05mm: vmalloc: convert vread() to vread_iter()Lorenzo Stoakes
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.

2023-04-05fs/proc/kcore: avoid bounce buffer for ktext dataLorenzo Stoakes
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.

2022-04-29fs/proc/kcore.c: remove check of list iterator against head past the loop bodyJakob Koschel
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].

2021-06-30fs/proc/kcore: don't read offline sections, logically offline pages and ↵David Hildenbrand
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.

2021-06-30fs/proc/kcore: drop KCORE_REMAP and KCORE_OTHERDavid Hildenbrand
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 kcore_list", used by KCORE_REMAP only.

2020-12-15arm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODELMike Rapoport
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.

2019-03-23x86/gart: Exclude GART aperture from kcoreKairui Song
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.

2018-08-22proc/kcore: clean up ELF header generationOmar Sandoval
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.

2018-08-22proc/kcore: fix memory hotplug vs multiple opens raceOmar Sandoval
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.

2018-08-22proc/kcore: don't grab lock for kclist_add()Omar Sandoval
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.

Represent that by giving the corresponding program headers in kcore the same offset. This has the benefit that, when perf tools uses /proc/kcore as a source for kernel object code, samples from different CPU trampolines are aggregated together. Note, such aggregation is normal for profiling i.e. people want to profile the object code, not every different virtual address the object code might be mapped to (across different processes for example).

The existing kcore code checks for bad addresses against __va(0) with the assumption that this is the lowest address on the system. This may not hold true on some systems (e.g. arm64) and produce overflows and crashes. Switch to using other functions to validate the address range. It's currently only seen on arm64 and it's not clear if anyone wants to use that particular combination on a stable release. So this is not urgent for stable.

2018-02-06fs/proc/kcore.c: use probe_kernel_read() instead of memcpy()Heiko Carstens
Commit df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data") added a bounce buffer to avoid hardened usercopy checks. Copying to the bounce buffer was implemented with a simple memcpy() assuming that it is always valid to read from kernel memory iff the kern_addr_valid() check passed. A simple, but pointless, test case like "dd if=/proc/kcore of=/dev/null" now can easily crash the kernel, since the former execption handling on invalid kernel addresses now doesn't work anymore. Also adding a kern_addr_valid() implementation wouldn't help here. Most architectures simply return 1 here, while a couple implemented a page table walk to figure out if something is mapped at the address in question. With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC active mappings are established and removed all the time, so that relying on the result of kern_addr_valid() before executing the memcpy() also doesn't work. Therefore simply use probe_kernel_read() to copy to the bounce buffer. This also allows to simplify read_kcore(). At least on s390 this fixes the observed crashes and doesn't introduce warnings that were removed with df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data"), even though the generic probe_kernel_read() implementation uses uaccess functions. While looking into this I'm also wondering if kern_addr_valid() could be completely removed...(?)

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.
