Properly take the mmap_lock before calling into the GUP code from
get_dump_page(); and play nice, allowing the GUP code to drop the
mmap_lock if it has to sleep.
As Linus pointed out, we don't actually need the VMA because
__get_user_pages() will flush the dcache for us if necessary.

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.

Patch series "Fix ELF / FDPIC ELF core dumping, and use mmap_lock properly in there", v5.
At the moment, we have that rather ugly mmget_still_valid() helper to work
around <https://crbug.com/project-zero/1790>: ELF core dumping doesn't
take the mmap_sem while traversing the task's VMAs, and if anything (like
userfaultfd) then remotely messes with the VMA tree, fireworks ensue. So
at the moment we use mmget_still_valid() to bail out in any writers that
might be operating on a remote mm's VMAs.
With this series, I'm trying to get rid of the need for that as cleanly as
possible. ("cleanly" meaning "avoid holding the mmap_lock across
unbounded sleeps".)
Patches 1, 2, 3 and 4 are relatively unrelated cleanups in the core
dumping code.
Patches 5 and 6 implement the main change: Instead of repeatedly accessing
the VMA list with sleeps in between, we snapshot it at the start with
proper locking, and then later we just use our copy of the VMA list. This
ensures that the kernel won't crash, that VMA metadata in the coredump is
consistent even in the presence of concurrent modifications, and that any
virtual addresses that aren't being concurrently modified have their
contents show up in the core dump properly.
The disadvantage of this approach is that we need a bit more memory during
core dumping for storing metadata about all VMAs.
At the end of the series, patch 7 removes the old workaround for this
issue (mmget_still_valid()).
I have tested:
- Creating a simple core dump on X86-64 still works.
- The created coredump on X86-64 opens in GDB and looks plausible.
- X86-64 core dumps contain the first page for executable mappings at
offset 0, and don't contain the first page for non-executable file
mappings or executable mappings at offset !=0.
- NOMMU 32-bit ARM can still generate plausible-looking core dumps
through the FDPIC implementation. (I can't test this with GDB because
GDB is missing some structure definition for nommu ARM, but I've
poked around in the hexdump and it looked decent.)
This patch (of 7):
dump_emit() is for kernel pointers, and VMAs describe userspace memory.
Let's be tidy here and avoid accessing userspace pointers under KERNEL_DS,
even if it probably doesn't matter much on !MMU systems - especially given
that it looks like we can just use the same get_dump_page() as on MMU if
we move it out of the CONFIG_MMU block.
One small change we have to make in get_dump_page() is to use
__get_user_pages_locked() instead of __get_user_pages(), since the latter
doesn't exist on nommu. On mmu builds, __get_user_pages_locked() will
just call __get_user_pages() for us.

Patch series "Selecting Load Addresses According to p_align", v3.
The current ELF loading mechancism provides page-aligned mappings. This
can lead to the program being loaded in a way unsuitable for file-backed,
transparent huge pages when handling PIE executables.
While specifying -z,max-page-size=0x200000 to the linker will generate
suitably aligned segments for huge pages on x86_64, the executable needs
to be loaded at a suitably aligned address as well. This alignment
requires the binary's cooperation, as distinct segments need to be
appropriately paddded to be eligible for THP.
For binaries built with increased alignment, this limits the number of
bits usable for ASLR, but provides some randomization over using fixed
load addresses/non-PIE binaries.

Checkpatch.pl doesn't have a check for excluding while (...) {...} blocks
from MULTISTATEMENT_MACRO_USE_DO_WHILE error.
For example, running checkpatch.pl on the file mm/maccess.c in the kernel
generates the following error:
ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses
+#define copy_from_kernel_nofault_loop(dst, src, len, type, err_label) \
+ while (len >= sizeof(type)) { \
+ __get_kernel_nofault(dst, src, type, err_label); \
+ dst += sizeof(type); \
+ src += sizeof(type); \
+ len -= sizeof(type); \
+ }
The error is misleading for this case. Enclosing it in parentheses
doesn't make any sense.
Checkpatch already has an exception list for such common macro types.
Added a new exception for while (...) {...} style blocks to the same.
In addition, the brace flatten logic was modified by changing the
substitution characters from "1" to "1u". This was done to ensure that
macros in the form "#define foo(bar) while(bar){bar--;}" were also
correctly procecssed.

Checkpatch did not handle cases where the author From: header was split
into multiple lines. The author identity could not be resolved and
checkpatch generated a false NO_AUTHOR_SIGN_OFF warning.
A typical example is commit e33bcbab16 ("tee: add support for session's
client UUID generation"). When checkpatch was run on this commit, it
displayed:
"WARNING:NO_AUTHOR_SIGN_OFF: Missing Signed-off-by: line by nominal
patch author ''"
This was due to split header lines not being handled properly and the
author himself wrote in commit cd2614967d ("checkpatch: warn if missing
author Signed-off-by"):
"Split From: headers are not fully handled: only the first part
is compared."
Support split From: headers by correctly parsing the header extension
lines. RFC 5322, Section-2.2.3 stated that each extended line must start
with a WSP character (a space or htab). The solution was therefore to
concatenate the lines which start with a WSP to get the correct long
header.

e.g.:

Add an imperfect test to detect these comma uses.

Kconfig allows to customize the CONFIG_ prefix via the $CONFIG_
environment variable. Out-of-tree projects may therefore use Kconfig with
a different prefix, or they may use a custom configuration tool which does
not use the CONFIG_ prefix at all. Such projects may still want to adhere
to the Linux kernel coding style and run checkpatch.pl.
One example is OP-TEE [1] which does not use Kconfig but does have
configuration options prefixed with CFG_. It also mostly follows the
kernel coding style and therefore being able to use checkpatch is quite
valuable.
To make this possible, add the --kconfig-prefix command line option.

Whether crc32_be needs a lookup table is chosen based on CRC_LE_BITS.
Obviously, the _be function should be governed by the _BE_ define.
This probably never pops up as it's hard to come up with a configuration
where CRC_BE_BITS isn't the same as CRC_LE_BITS and as nobody is using
bitwise CRC anyway.

Add a macro to test if entry is pointing to the head of the list which is
useful in cases like:
list_for_each_entry(pos, &head, member) {
if (cond)
break;
}
if (list_entry_is_head(pos, &head, member))
return -ERRNO;
that allows to avoid additional variable to be added to track if loop has
not been stopped in the middle.
While here, convert list_for_each_entry*() family of macros to use a new one.

The documentation for these functions indicates that callers don't need to
hold a lock while calling them, but that documentation is only in one
place under "IDA Usage". Let's state the same information on each IDA
function so that it's clear what the calling context requires.
Furthermore, let's document ida_simple_get() with the same information so
that callers know how this API works.
