I tried adding memset(..., 0xab, PAGE_SIZE << order) to alloc_pages() and never saw the 0xab pattern in the buffers for which KMSAN reported an error. This probably isn't an error in 88938359e2df ("virtio: kmsan: check/unpoison scatterlist in vring_map_one_sg()"), which by itself should be doing a sane thing: report an error if an uninitialized buffer is passed to it. It is more likely that we're missing some initialization that happens in coredump.c Does anyone have an idea where coredump.c is supposed to be initializing these pages? Maybe there are some inline assembly functions involved in copying the data?
