mm: remove vmacache

2022-09-27T02:46:18Z

By using the maple tree and the maple tree state, the vmacache is no longer beneficial and is complicating the VMA code. Remove the vmacache to reduce the work in keeping it up to date and code complexity. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220906194824.2110408-26-Liam.Howlett@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Liam R.

lockdown: also lock down previous kgdb use

2022-05-24T18:29:34Z

KGDB and KDB allow read and write access to kernel memory, and thus should be restricted during lockdown. An attacker with access to a serial port (for example, via a hypervisor console, which some cloud vendors provide over the network) could trigger the debugger so it is important that the debugger respect the lockdown mode when/if it is triggered. Fix this by integrating lockdown into kdb's existing permissions mechanism. Unfortunately kgdb does not have any permissions mechanism (although it certainly could be added later) so, for now, kgdb is simply and brutally disabled by immediately exiting the gdb stub without taking any action. For lockdowns established early in the boot (e.g. the normal case) then this should be fine but on systems where kgdb has set breakpoints before the lockdown is enacted than "bad things" will happen.

kgdb: fix to kill breakpoints on initmem after boot

2021-02-26T17:41:05Z

Currently breakpoints in kernel .init.text section are not handled correctly while allowing to remove them even after corresponding pages have been freed. Fix it via killing .init.text section breakpoints just prior to initmem pages being freed. Doug: "HW breakpoints aren't handled by this patch but it's probably not such a big deal".

kgdb: Remove kgdb_schedule_breakpoint()

2021-02-11T10:51:56Z

To the very best of my knowledge there has never been any in-tree code that calls this function. It exists largely to support an out-of-tree driver that provides kgdb-over-ethernet using the netpoll API. kgdboe has been out-of-tree for more than 10 years and I don't recall any serious attempt to upstream it at any point in the last five. At this stage it looks better to stop carrying this code in the kernel and integrate the code into the out-of-tree driver instead. The long term trajectory for the kernel looks likely to include effort to remove or reduce the use of tasklets (something that has also been true for the last 10 years). Thus the main real reason for this patch is to make explicit that the in-tree kgdb features do not require tasklets.

kernel: debug: Centralize dbg_[de]activate_sw_breakpoints

2020-10-01T13:23:45Z

During debug trap execution we expect dbg_deactivate_sw_breakpoints() to be paired with an dbg_activate_sw_breakpoint(). Currently although the calls are paired correctly they are needlessly smeared across three different functions. Worse this also results in code to drive polled I/O being called with breakpoints activated which, in turn, needlessly increases the set of functions that will recursively trap if breakpointed. Fix this by moving the activation of breakpoints into the debug core.
