commit b8ee299855f08539e04d6c1a6acb3dc9e5423c00 upstream.

When build with !CONFIG_MMU, the variable 'vmcore_mmap_ops'
is defined but not used:

&gt;&gt; fs/proc/vmcore.c:458:42: warning: unused variable 'vmcore_mmap_ops'
     458 | static const struct vm_operations_struct vmcore_mmap_ops = {

Fix this by only defining it when CONFIG_MMU is enabled.

<title>fs/proc/kcore.c: allow translation of physical memory addresses</title>

commit 3d5854d75e3187147613130561b58f0b06166172 upstream.

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.

<title>proc: add config &amp; param to block forcing mem writes</title>

[ Upstream commit 41e8149c8892ed1962bd15350b3c3e6e90cba7f4 ]

This adds a Kconfig option and boot param to allow removing
the FOLL_FORCE flag from /proc/pid/mem write calls because
it can be abused.

The traditional forcing behavior is kept as default because
it can break GDB and some other use cases.

Previously we tried a more sophisticated approach allowing
distributions to fine-tune /proc/pid/mem behavior, however
that got NAK-ed by Linus [1], who prefers this simpler
approach with semantics also easier to understand for users.

[ Upstream commit 98ca62ba9e2be5863c7d069f84f7166b45a5b2f4 ]

Always initialize i_uid/i_gid inside the sysfs core so set_ownership()
can safely skip setting them.

Commit 5ec27ec735ba ("fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c: fix the default values of
i_uid/i_gid on /proc/sys inodes.") added defaults for i_uid/i_gid when
set_ownership() was not implemented. It also missed adjusting
net_ctl_set_ownership() to use the same default values in case the
computation of a better value failed.

[ Upstream commit 520713a93d550406dae14d49cdb8778d70cecdfd ]

Remove the 'table' argument from set_ownership as it is never used. This
change is a step towards putting "struct ctl_table" into .rodata and
eventually having sysctl core only use "const struct ctl_table".

The patch was created with the following coccinelle script:

  @@
  identifier func, head, table, uid, gid;
  @@

  void func(
    struct ctl_table_header *head,
  - struct ctl_table *table,
    kuid_t *uid, kgid_t *gid)
  { ... }

No additional occurrences of 'set_ownership' were found after doing a
tree-wide search.

<title>fs/proc/task_mmu: properly detect PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE per page of PMD-mapped THPs</title>

[ Upstream commit 2c1f057e5be63e890f2dd89e4c25ab5eef084a91 ]

We added PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE in 2015 via commit 77bb499bb60f ("pagemap: add
mmap-exclusive bit for marking pages mapped only here"), when THPs could
not be partially mapped and page_mapcount() returned something that was
true for all pages of the THP.

In 2016, we added support for partially mapping THPs via commit
53f9263baba6 ("mm: rework mapcount accounting to enable 4k mapping of
THPs") but missed to determine PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE as well per page.

Checking page_mapcount() on the head page does not tell the whole story.

We should check each individual page.  In a future without per-page
mapcounts it will be different, but we'll change that to be consistent
with PTE-mapped THPs once we deal with that.

[ Upstream commit da7f31ed0f4df8f61e8195e527aa83dd54896ba3 ]

Relying on the mapcount for non-present PTEs that reference pages doesn't
make any sense: they are not accounted in the mapcount, so page_mapcount()
== 1 won't return the result we actually want to know.

While we don't check the mapcount for migration entries already, we could
end up checking it for swap, hwpoison, device exclusive, ...  entries,
which we really shouldn't.

There is one exception: device private entries, which we consider
fake-present (e.g., incremented the mapcount).  But we won't care about
that for now for PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE, because indicating PM_SWAP for them
although they are fake-present already sounds suspiciously wrong.

Let's never indicate PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE without PM_PRESENT.

although they are fake-present already sounds suspiciously wrong.

Let's never indicate PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE without PM_PRESENT.

[ Upstream commit 3f9f022e975d930709848a86a1c79775b0585202 ]

Patch series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to fs/proc/internal.h".

With all other page_mapcount() users in the tree gone, move
page_mapcount() to fs/proc/internal.h, rename it and extend the
documentation to prevent future (ab)use.

... of course, I find some issues while working on that code that I sort
first ;)

We'll now only end up calling page_mapcount() [now
folio_precise_page_mapcount()] on pages mapped via present page table
entries.  Except for /proc/kpagecount, that still does questionable
things, but we'll leave that legacy interface as is for now.

Did a quick sanity check.  Likely we would want some better selfestest for
/proc/$/pagemap + smaps.  I'll see if I can find some time to write some
more.

This patch (of 6):

Looks like we never taught pagemap_pmd_range() about the existence of
PMD-mapped file THPs.  Seems to date back to the times when we first added
support for non-anon THPs in the form of shmem THP.

<title>fs/proc: fix softlockup in __read_vmcore</title>

commit 5cbcb62dddf5346077feb82b7b0c9254222d3445 upstream.

While taking a kernel core dump with makedumpfile on a larger system,
softlockup messages often appear.

While softlockup warnings can be harmless, they can also interfere with
things like RCU freeing memory, which can be problematic when the kdump
kexec image is configured with as little memory as possible.

Avoid the softlockup, and give things like work items and RCU a chance to
do their thing during __read_vmcore by adding a cond_resched.
