[PATCH] arm/vdso: introduce vdso_mremap hook

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Tue Nov 01 2016 - 14:59:16 EST


Add vdso_mremap hook which will fix context.vdso pointer after mremap()
on vDSO vma. This is needed for correct landing after syscall execution.
Primary goal of this is for CRIU on arm - we need to restore vDSO image
at the exactly same place where the vma was in dumped application. With
the help of this hook we'll move vDSO at the new position.
The CRIU code handles situations like when vDSO of dumped application
was different from vDSO on restoring system. This usally happens when
some new symbols are being added to vDSO. In these situations CRIU
inserts jump trampolines from old vDSO blob to new vDSO on restore.
By that reason even if on restore vDSO blob lies on the same address as
blob in dumped application - we still need to move it if it differs.

There was previously attempt to add this functionality for arm64 by
arch_mremap hook [1], while this patch introduces this with minimal
effort - the same way I've added it to x86:
commit b059a453b1cf ("x86/vdso: Add mremap hook to vm_special_mapping")

At this moment, vdso restoring code is disabled for arm/arm64 arch
in CRIU [2], so C/R is only working for !CONFIG_VDSO kernels. This patch
is aimed to fix that.
The same hook may be introduced for arm64 kernel, but at this moment
arm64 vdso code is actively reworked by Kevin, so we can do it on top.
Separately, I've refactored arch_remap hook out from ppc64 [3].
