Subject: [PATCH bpf 0/3] Fix the read of vsyscall page through bpf

From: Hou Tao <houtao1@...wei.com>

Hi,

As reported by syzboot [1] and [2], when trying to read vsyscall page
by using bpf_probe_read_kernel() or bpf_probe_read(), oops will happen.

Thomas Gleixner had proposed a test patch [3], but it seems that no
formal patch is posted after about one month [4], so I post it instead
and add an Originally-from tag in patch #2.

Patch #1 makes is_vsyscall_vaddr() being a common helper. Patch #2 fixes
the problem by disallowing vsyscall page read for
copy_from_kernel_nofault(). Patch #3 adds one test case to ensure the
read of vsyscall page through bpf is rejected. Although vsyscall page
can be disabled by vsyscall=none, but it doesn't affect the reproduce of
the problem and the added test.

Comments are always welcome.
