BACKPORT: of: reserved_mem: Have kmemleak ignore dynamically allocated reserved mem Patch series "Fix kmemleak crashes when scanning CMA regions", v2. When trying to boot a device with an ARM64 kernel with the following config options enabled: CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT=y CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y a crash is encountered when kmemleak starts to scan the list of gray or allocated objects that it maintains. Upon closer inspection, it was observed that these page-faults always occurred when kmemleak attempted to scan a CMA region. At the moment, kmemleak is made aware of CMA regions that are specified through the devicetree to be dynamically allocated within a range of addresses. However, kmemleak should not need to scan CMA regions or any reserved memory region, as those regions can be used for DMA transfers between drivers and peripherals, and thus wouldn't contain anything useful for kmemleak. Additionally, since CMA regions are unmapped from the kernel's address space when they are freed to the buddy allocator at boot when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, kmemleak shouldn't attempt to access those memory regions, as that will trigger a crash. Thus, kmemleak should ignore all dynamically allocated reserved memory regions. This patch (of 1): Currently, kmemleak ignores dynamically allocated reserved memory regions that don't have a kernel mapping. However, regions that do retain a kernel mapping (e.g. CMA regions) do get scanned by kmemleak. This is not ideal for two reasons: 1 kmemleak works by scanning memory regions for pointers to allocated objects to determine if those objects have been leaked or not. However, reserved memory regions can be used between drivers and peripherals for DMA transfers, and thus, would not contain pointers to allocated objects, making it unnecessary for kmemleak to scan these reserved memory regions. 2 When CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, along with kmemleak, the CMA reserved memory regions are unmapped from the kernel's address space when they are freed to buddy at boot. These CMA reserved regions are still tracked by kmemleak, however, and when kmemleak attempts to scan them, a crash will happen, as accessing the CMA region will result in a page-fault, since the regions are unmapped. Thus, use kmemleak_ignore_phys() for all dynamically allocated reserved memory regions, instead of those that do not have a kernel mapping associated with them.

BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export.LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
