Examples for PageOffline() pages are pages inflated in a balloon, memory unplugged via virtio-mem, and partially-present sections in memory added by the Hyper-V balloon. When reading pages inflated in a balloon, we essentially produce unnecessary load in the hypervisor; holes in partially present sections in case of Hyper-V are not accessible and already were a problem for /proc/vmcore, fixed in makedumpfile by detecting PageOffline() pages. In the future, virtio-mem might disallow reading unplugged memory -- marked as PageOffline() -- in some environments, resulting in undefined behavior when accessed; therefore, I'm trying to identify and rework all these (corner) cases. With this series, there is really only access via /dev/mem, /proc/vmcore and kdb left after I ripped out /dev/kmem. kdb is an advanced corner-case use case -- we won't care for now if someone explicitly tries to do nasty things by reading from/writing to physical addresses we better not touch. /dev/mem is a use case we won't support for virtio-mem, at least for now, so we'll simply disallow mapping any virtio-mem memory via /dev/mem next. /proc/vmcore is really only a problem when dumping the old kernel via something that's not makedumpfile (read: basically never), however, we'll try sanitizing that as well in the second kernel in the future. Tested via kcore_dump: https://github.com/schlafwandler/kcore_dump v2 -> v3: - "mm: introduce page_offline_(begin|end|freeze|thaw) to synchronize setting PageOffline()" -- Rephrased a comment as suggested by Mike - Collected acks and rbs v1 -> v2: - Dropped "mm: rename and move page_is_poisoned()" - "fs/proc/kcore: don't read offline sections, logically offline pages ..." -- Add is_page_hwpoison() in page-flags.h along with a comment - "mm: introduce page_offline_(begin|end|freeze|thaw) to ..." -- s/unfreeze/thaw/ -- Add a comment to PageOffline documentation in page-flags.h - "virtio-mem: use page_offline_(start|end) when setting PageOffline()" -- Extend patch description - "fs/proc/kcore: use page_offline_(freeze|thaw)" -- Simplify freeze/thaw logic - Collected acks/rbs Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: "Michael S.
