Subject: [PATCH RESEND v2 3/6] proc: give kcore, kmsg and the kpage files their own file_operations
Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2026 22:16:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104-work-procfs-cleanup-v2-3-1e6687e226b1@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104-work-procfs-cleanup-v2-0-1e6687e226b1@kernel.org>
kcore, kmsg, kpagecount, kpageflags and kpagecgroup are the entries
that keep reading straight into userspace. They can, procfs never pins
them, they're built in and never removed. They are also the only reason
struct proc_ops still has two methods that get a __user pointer,
->proc_read() and ->proc_read_iter(), and the only reason procfs has
three sets of file_operations for regular files.
So give them a file_operations of their own and let proc_get_inode()
put that into the inode as it is. procfs doesn't mediate them at all
then, which is what being permanent and copying to userspace yourself
amounts to anyway. proc_create_fops() is internal to fs/proc, nothing
outside of it can register such an entry, and it marks the entry
permanent, so it can't be removed either.
What changes for them: mmap() fails with -ENODEV instead of -EIO, there
is no ->mmap now where procfs used to answer for the missing
->proc_mmap(), and a write() by someone who can open them for writing
fails with -EINVAL instead of -EIO, for the same reason. kcore keeps
splice_read(), the other four never had it.
