READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.
Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

Statistically, in a large deployment regular segfaults may indicate a CPU
issue.
Currently, it is not possible to find out what CPU the segfault happened
on. There are at least two attempts to improve segfault logging with this
regard, but they do not help in case the logs rotate.
Hence, lets make sure it is possible to permanently record a CPU the task
ran on using a new core_pattern specifier.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock

Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.

"ptrace: Stop supporting SIGKILL for PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
Recently I had a conversation where it was pointed out to me that
SIGKILL sent to a tracee stropped in PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT is quite
difficult for a tracer to handle.
Keeping SIGKILL working after the process has been killed is pain from
an implementation point of view.
So since the debuggers don't want this behavior let's see if we can
remove this wart for the userspace API

Let me count the ways in which I'd screwed up:
* when emitting a page, handling of gaps in coredump should happen
before fetching the current file position.
* fix for a problem that occurs on rather uncommon setups (and hadn't
been observed in the wild) had been sent very late in the cycle.
* ... with badly insufficient testing, introducing an easily
reproducible breakage. Without giving it time to soak in -next.

passing kmap_local_page() result to __kernel_write() is unsafe -
random ->write_iter() might (and 9p one does) get unhappy when
passed ITER_KVEC with pointer that came from kmap_local_page().
Fix by providing a variant of __kernel_write() that takes an iov_iter
from caller (__kernel_write() becomes a trivial wrapper) and adding
dump_emit_page() that parallels dump_emit(), except that instead of
__kernel_write() it uses __kernel_write_iter() with ITER_BVEC source.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.
By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.
As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).
Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:
freezer_do_not_count();
schedule();
freezer_count();
And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.
However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.
That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.
This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.
As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:
TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN
The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).
The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in ->jobctl.
With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

In 403bad72b67d ("coredump: only SIGKILL should interrupt the
coredumping task") Oleg modified the kernel to drop all signals that
come in during a coredump except SIGKILL, and suggested that it might
be a good idea to generalize that to other cases after the process has
received a fatal signal.
Semantically it does not make sense to perform any signal delivery
after the process has already been killed.
When a signal is sent while a process is dying today the signal is
placed in the signal queue by __send_signal and a single task of the
process is woken up with signal_wake_up, if there are any tasks that
have not set PF_EXITING.
Take things one step farther and have prepare_signal report that all
signals that come after a process has been killed should be ignored.
While retaining the historical exception of allowing SIGKILL to
interrupt coredumps.
Update the comment in fs/coredump.c to make it clear coredumps are
special in being able to receive SIGKILL.
This changes things so that a process stopped in PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT can
not be made to escape it's ptracer and finish exiting by sending it
SIGKILL. That a process can be made to leave PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT and
escape it's tracer by sending the process a SIGKILL has been
complicating tracer's for no apparent advantage. If the process needs
to be made to leave PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT all that needs to happen is to
kill the proceses's tracer. This differs from the coredump code where
there is no other mechanism besides honoring SIGKILL to expedite the
end of coredumping.

When I rewrote the VMA dumping logic for coredumps, I changed it to
recognize ELF library mappings based on the file being executable instead
of the mapping having an ELF header. But turns out, distros ship many ELF
libraries as non-executable, so the heuristic goes wrong...
Restore the old behavior where FILTER(ELF_HEADERS) dumps the first page of
any offset-0 readable mapping that starts with the ELF magic.
This fix is technically layer-breaking a bit, because it checks for
something ELF-specific in fs/coredump.c; but since we probably want to
share this between standard ELF and FDPIC ELF anyway, I guess it's fine?
And this also keeps the change small for backporting.

the process having received a fatal signal.
Sometimes it is appropriate to treat an on-going exec differently than
a process that is shutting down due to a fatal signal. In particular
taking the fast path out of exit_signals instead of retargeting
signals is not appropriate during exec, and not changing the the exit
code in do_group_exit during exec.
Removing the helper makes it more obvious what is going on as both
cases must be coded for explicitly.
While removing the helper fix the two cases where I have observed
using signal_group_exit resulted in the wrong result.
In exit_signals only test for SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT so that signals are
retargetted during an exec.
In do_group_exit use 0 as the exit code during an exec as de_thread
does not set group_exit_code. As best as I can determine
group_exit_code has been is set to 0 most of the time during
de_thread. During a thread group stop group_exit_code is set to the
stop signal and when the thread group receives SIGCONT group_exit_code
is reset to 0.

Currently the coredump code sets group_exit_task so that
signal_group_exit() will return true during a coredump. Now that the
coredump code always sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT there is no longer a need
to set signal->group_exit_task.

After the previous cleanups "signal->core_state" is set whenever
SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is set and "signal->core_state" is tested
whenver the code wants to know if a coredump is in progress. The
remaining tests of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP also test to see if
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set. Similarly the only place that sets
SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP also sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.
Which makes SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP unecessary and redundant. So stop
setting SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP, stop testing SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP, and
remove it's definition.
With the setting of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP gone, coredump_finish no
longer needs to clear SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP out of signal->flags
by setting SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.

There are only a few places that test SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and
are not also already testing SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP.
This will not affect the callers of signal_group_exit as zap_process
also sets group_exit_task so signal_group_exit will continue to return
true at the same times.
This does not affect wait_task_zombie as the none of the threads
wind up in EXIT_ZOMBIE state during a coredump.
This does not affect oom_kill.c:__task_will_free_mem as
sig->core_state is tested and handled before SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is
tested for.
This does not affect complete_signal as signal->core_state is tested
for to ensure the coredump case is handled appropriately.

Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose
default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but
every process that shares the mm is killed.
In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider
the following well defined sequence.
if (vfork() == 0) {
execve(...);
_exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but
before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will
also be killed (as the mm is shared).
Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel
delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because
the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well.
As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's
reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the
system is low on memory.
Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single
process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently
modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified
while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't
expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice.
To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to
signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump
simultatenously.
In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current
thread group.
v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix
compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

Rename coredump_exit_mm to coredump_task_exit and call it from do_exit
before PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, and before any cleanup work for a task
happens. This ensures that an accurate copy of the process can be
captured in the coredump as no cleanup for the process happens before
the coredump completes. This also ensures that PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
will not be visited by any thread until the coredump is complete.
Add a new flag PF_POSTCOREDUMP so that tasks that have passed through
coredump_task_exit can be recognized and ignored in zap_process.
Now that all of the coredumping happens before exit_mm remove code to
test for a coredump in progress from mm_release.
Replace "may_ptrace_stop()" with a simple test of "current->ptrace".
The other tests in may_ptrace_stop all concern avoiding stopping
during a coredump. These tests are no longer necessary as it is now
guaranteed that fatal_signal_pending will be set if the code enters
ptrace_stop during a coredump. The code in ptrace_stop is guaranteed
not to stop if fatal_signal_pending returns true.
Until this change "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" could call
ptrace_stop without fatal_signal_pending being true, as signals are
dequeued in get_signal before calling do_exit. This is no longer
an issue as "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" is no longer reached
until after the coredump completes.

For obvious security reasons, a core dump is aborted if the filesystem
cannot preserve ownership or permissions of the dump file.
This affects filesystems like e.g. vfat, but also something like a 9pfs
share in a Qemu test setup, running as a regular user, depending on the
security model used. In those cases, the result is an empty core file and
a confused user.
To hopefully save other people a lot of time figuring out the cause, this
patch adds a simple log message for those specific cases.

Olivier Langlois has been struggling with coredumps being incompletely written in
processes using io_uring.

The coredump code deliberately supports being interrupted by SIGKILL,
and depends upon prepare_signal to filter out all other signals. Now
that signal_pending includes wake ups for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL this hack
in dump_emitted by the coredump code no longer works.
Make the coredump code more robust by explicitly testing for all of
the wakeup conditions the coredump code supports. This prevents
new wakeup conditions from breaking the coredump code, as well
as fixing the current issue.
The filesystem code that the coredump code uses already limits
itself to only aborting on fatal_signal_pending. So it should
not develop surprising wake-up reasons either.
v2: Don't remove the now unnecessary code in prepare_signal.

When truncating files the vfs will verify that the caller is privileged
over the inode. Extend it to handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is
accessed through an idmapped mount it is mapped according to the mount's
user namespace. Afterwards the permissions checks are identical to
non-idmapped mounts. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing
changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

Oleg Nesterov recently asked[1] why is there an unshare_files in
do_coredump. After digging through all of the callers of lookup_fd it
turns out that it is
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/coredump.c:coredump_next_context
that needs the unshare_files in do_coredump.
Looking at the history[2] this code was also the only piece of coredump code
that required the unshare_files when the unshare_files was added.
Looking at that code it turns out that cell is also the only
architecture that implements elf_coredump_extra_notes_size and
elf_coredump_extra_notes_write.
I looked at the gdb repo[3] support for cell has been removed[4] in binutils
2.34. Geoff Levand reports he is still getting questions on how to
run modern kernels on the PS3, from people using 3rd party firmware so
this code is not dead. According to Wikipedia the last PS3 shipped in
Japan sometime in 2017. So it will probably be a little while before
everyone's hardware dies.
Add some comments briefly documenting the coredump code that exists
only to support cell spufs to make it easier to understand the
coredump code. Eventually the hardware will be dead, or their won't
be userspace tools, or the coredump code will be refactored and it
will be too difficult to update a dead architecture and these comments
make it easy to tell where to pull to remove cell spufs support.

'format_corename()' will splite 'core_pattern' on spaces when it is in
pipe mode, and take helper_argv[0] as the path to usermode executable.
It works fine in most cases.
However, if there is a space between '|' and '/file/path', such as
'| /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g', then helper_argv[0] will
be parsed as '', and users will get a 'Core dump to | disabled'.
It is not friendly to users, as the pattern above was valid previously.
Fix this by ignoring the spaces between '|' and '/file/path'.

In both binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic, use a new helper
dump_vma_snapshot() to take a snapshot of the VMA list (including the gate
VMA, if we have one) while protected by the mmap_lock, and then use that
snapshot instead of walking the VMA list without locking.
An alternative approach would be to keep the mmap_lock held across the
entire core dumping operation; however, keeping the mmap_lock locked while
we may be blocked for an unbounded amount of time (e.g. because we're
dumping to a FUSE filesystem or so) isn't really optimal; the mmap_lock
blocks things like the ->release handler of userfaultfd, and we don't
really want critical system daemons to grind to a halt just because
someone "gifted" them SCM_RIGHTS to an eternally-locked userfaultfd, or
something like that.
Since both the normal ELF code and the FDPIC ELF code need this
functionality (and if any other binfmt wants to add coredump support in
the future, they'd probably need it, too), implement this with a common
helper in fs/coredump.c.
A downside of this approach is that we now need a bigger amount of kernel
memory per userspace VMA in the normal ELF case, and that we need O(n)
kernel memory in the FDPIC ELF case at all; but 40 bytes per VMA shouldn't
be terribly bad.
There currently is a data race between stack expansion and anything that
reads ->vm_start or ->vm_end under the mmap_lock held in read mode; to
mitigate that for core dumping, take the mmap_lock in write mode when
taking a snapshot of the VMA hierarchy. (If we only took the mmap_lock in
read mode, we could end up with a corrupted core dump if someone does
get_user_pages_remote() concurrently. Not really a major problem, but
taking the mmap_lock either way works here, so we might as well avoid the
issue.) (This doesn't do anything about the existing data races with stack
expansion in other mm code.)

At the moment, the binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic code have slightly
different code to figure out which VMAs should be dumped, and if so,
whether the dump should contain the entire VMA or just its first page.
Eliminate duplicate code by reworking the binfmt_elf version into a
generic core dumping helper in coredump.c.
As part of that, change the heuristic for detecting executable/library
header pages to check whether the inode is executable instead of looking
at the file mode.
This is less problematic in terms of locking because it lets us avoid
get_user() under the mmap_sem. (And arguably it looks nicer and makes
more sense in generic code.)
Adjust a little bit based on the binfmt_elf_fdpic version: ->anon_vma is
only meaningful under CONFIG_MMU, otherwise we have to assume that the VMA
has been written to.

The document reads "%e" should be "executable filename" while actually it
could be changed by things like pr_ctl PR_SET_NAME. People who uses "%e"
in core_pattern get surprised when they find out they get thread name
instead of executable filename.
This is either a bug of document or a bug of code. Since the behavior of
"%e" is there for long time, it could bring another surprise for users if
we "fix" the code.
So we just "fix" the document. And more, for users who really need the
"executable filename" in core_pattern, we introduce a new "%f" for the
real executable filename. We already have "%E" for executable path in
kernel, so just reuse most of its code for the new added "%f" format.
