#1520123 — [PATCH RFC] mm: Add debug_virt_to_phys()

When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is turned on, virt_to_phys() maps to
debug_virt_to_phys() which helps catch vmalloc space addresses being
passed. This is helpful in debugging bogus drivers that just assume
linear mappings all over the place.

For ARM, ARM64, Unicore32 and Microblaze, the architectures define
__virt_to_phys() as being the functional implementation of the address
translation, so we special case the debug stub to call into
__virt_to_phys directly.

Why don't you do something more like:

 static inline phys_addr_t virt_to_phys(const volatile void *x)
 {
+        debug_virt_to_phys(x);
         return __virt_to_phys((unsigned long)(x));
 }

[...]

static inline void debug_virt_to_phys(const void *address)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
        BUG_ON(is_vmalloc_addr(address));
#endif
}

?

This is how I started doing it initially, but to get the
is_vmalloc_addr() definition, we need to include linux/mm.h and then
everything falls apart because of the include and dependencies chain. We
could open code the is_vmalloc_addr() check because that's simple
enough, but we still need VMALLOC_START and VMALLOC_END and to get there
we need to include pgtable.h, and there are still some inclusion
problems in doing so.

The other reason was to avoid putting the same checks in architecture
specific code, except for those like ARM/ARM64/Unicore32/Microblaze
where I could not find a simple way to undefined virt_to_phys and
redefine it to debug_virt_to_phys.

Do you see an other way around this? Thanks!

You could still move the check out of line like in your patch. But the 
debug function doesn't have to be the one returning the translated 
address. This has the advantage of cutting on the amount of ifdefery.

What's the interaction between this and the DEBUG_VIRTUAL patches from Laura?

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161102210054.16621-7-labbott@redhat.com

They seem to be tackling the exact same problem afaict.

Indeed thanks for pointing that out, I guess I could piggy back on this
patchset and try to cover ARM.

Thanks!

is_vmalloc_addr is necessary but not sufficient. This misses
cases like module addresses. The x86 version (CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL)
bounds checks against the known linear map to catch all cases.
I'm for a generic approach to this if it can catch all cases
that an architecture specific version would catch.

Thanks,
Laura

Indeed, thanks.

For one, my patch causes an early BUG to occur on ARM64 during
arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c::setup_arch when we call
cpu_uninstall_idmap(). I suspect there could be a bunch of little checks
like these where we'd have to have an architecture specific "is this
physical/virtual address valid" that may make a generic implementation
hard to come up with.
