coredump: fix spam with zero VMA process Nobody ever tried to self destruct by unmapping whole address space at once: munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096); Doing this produces 2 warnings for zero-length vmalloc allocations: a.out[1353]: segfault at 7f80bcc4b757 ip 00007f80bcc4b757 sp 00007fff683939b8 error 14 a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null) ... a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null) ... Fix is to switch to kvmalloc(). Steps to reproduce: // vsyscall=none #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/resource.h> int main(void) { setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE, &(struct rlimit){RLIM_INFINITY, RLIM_INFINITY}); munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096); return 0; } Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180410180353.GA2515@avx2 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
