Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't
terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those
out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols.
Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it
to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly
complicated.
initcall_debug improves:

4982223e51 module: set nx before marking module MODULE_STATE_COMING.
introduced a regression: if a module fails to parse its arguments or
if mod_sysfs_setup fails, then the module's memory will be freed
while still read-only. Anything that reuses that memory will crash
as soon as it tries to write to it.

Symbols starting with .L are ELF local symbols and should not appear
in ELF symbol tables. However, unfortunately ARM binutils leaks the
.LANCHOR symbols into the symbol table, which leads kallsyms to report
these symbols rather than the real name. It is not very useful when
%pf reports symbols against these leaked .LANCHOR symbols.
Arrange for kallsyms to ignore these symbols using the same mechanism
that is used for the ARM mapping symbols.

Per further discussion with NIST, the requirements for FIPS state that
we only need to panic the system on failed kernel module signature checks
for crypto subsystem modules. This moves the fips-mode-only module
signature check out of the generic module loading code, into the crypto
subsystem, at points where we can catch both algorithm module loads and
mode module loads. At the same time, make CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS dependent on
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG, as this is entirely necessary for FIPS mode.
v2: remove extraneous blank line, perform checks in static inline
function, drop no longer necessary fips.h include.

[ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails!

When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

The kernel passes any args it doesn't need through to init, except it
assumes anything containing '.' belongs to the kernel (for a module).
This change means all users can clearly distinguish which arguments
are for init.
For example, the kernel uses debug ("dee-bug") to mean log everything to
the console, where systemd uses the debug from the Scandinavian "day-boog"
meaning "fail to boot". If a future versions uses argv[] instead of
reading /proc/cmdline, this confusion will be avoided.
eg: test 'FOO="this is --foo"' -- 'systemd.debug="true true true"'
Gives:
argv[0] = '/debug-init'
argv[1] = 'test'
argv[2] = 'systemd.debug=true true true'
envp[0] = 'HOME=/'
envp[1] = 'TERM=linux'
envp[2] = 'FOO=this is --foo'

We remove the waiting module removal in commit 3f2b9c9cdf (September
2013), but it turns out that modprobe in kmod (< version 16) was
asking for waiting module removal. No one noticed since modprobe would
check for 0 usage immediately before trying to remove the module, and
the race is unlikely.
However, it means that anyone running old (but not ancient) kmod
versions is hitting the printk designed to see if anyone was running
"rmmod -w". All reports so far have been false positives, so remove
the warning.

Users have reported being unable to trace non-signed modules loaded
within a kernel supporting module signature.
This is caused by tracepoint.c:tracepoint_module_coming() refusing to
take into account tracepoints sitting within force-loaded modules
(TAINT_FORCED_MODULE). The reason for this check, in the first place, is
that a force-loaded module may have a struct module incompatible with
the layout expected by the kernel, and can thus cause a kernel crash
upon forced load of that module on a kernel with CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS=y.
Tracepoints, however, specifically accept TAINT_OOT_MODULE and
TAINT_CRAP, since those modules do not lead to the "very likely system
crash" issue cited above for force-loaded modules.
With kernels having CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y (signed modules), a non-signed
module is tainted re-using the TAINT_FORCED_MODULE taint flag.
Unfortunately, this means that Tracepoints treat that module as a
force-loaded module, and thus silently refuse to consider any tracepoint
within this module.
Since an unsigned module does not fit within the "very likely system
crash" category of tainting, add a new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE taint flag
to specifically address this taint behavior, and accept those modules
within Tracepoints. We use the letter 'X' as a taint flag character for
a module being loaded that doesn't know how to sign its name (proposed
by Steven Rostedt).
Also add the missing 'O' entry to trace event show_module_flags() list
for the sake of completeness.

kernel/module.c uses a mix of printk(KERN_foo and pr_foo(). Convert it
all to pr_foo and make the offered cleanups.
Not sure what to do about the printk(KERN_DEFAULT). We don't have a
pr_default().

This adds the .init_array section as yet another section with constructors. This
is needed because gcc could add __gcov_init calls to .init_array or .ctors
section, depending on gcc (and binutils) version .
v2: - reuse mod->ctors for .init_array section for modules, because gcc uses
.ctors or .init_array, but not both at the same time
v3: - fail to load if that does happen somehow.

The option to wait for a module reference count to reach zero was in
the initial module implementation, but it was never supported in
modprobe (you had to use rmmod --wait). After discussion with Lucas,
It has been deprecated (with a 10 second sleep) in kmod for the last
year.
This finally removes it: the flag will evoke a printk warning and a
normal (non-blocking) remove attempt.

Although parameters are supposed to be part of the kernel API, experimental
parameters are often removed. In addition, downgrading a kernel might cause
previously-working modules to fail to load.
On balance, it's probably better to warn, and load the module anyway.
This may let through a typo, but at least the logs will show it.

If we pass a pointer to a const string in the form "module:symbol"
module_kallsyms_lookup_name() will try to split the string at the colon,
i.e., will try to modify r/o data. That will, in fact, fail on a kernel
with enabled CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
Avoid modifying the passed string in module_kallsyms_lookup_name(),
modify find_module_all() instead to pass it the module name length.

Fix symbol versioning on architectures with symbol prefixes. Although
the build was free from warnings the actual modules still wouldn't load
as the ____versions table contained unprefixed symbol names, which were
being compared against the prefixed symbol names when checking the
symbol versions.
This is fixed by modifying modpost to add the symbol prefix to the
____versions table it outputs (Modules.symvers still contains unprefixed
symbol names). The check_modstruct_version() function is also fixed as
it checks the version of the unprefixed "module_layout" symbol which
would no longer work.

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (use VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR)
We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
"_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
do so.
Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are
defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:
1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
for pasting.
(arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).
Let's solve this properly:
1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
4) Make everyone use them.

Commit 1fb9341ac3 ("module: put modules in list much earlier") moved
some of the module initialization code around, and in the process
changed the exit paths too. But for the duplicate export symbol error
case the change made the ddebug_cleanup path jump to after the module
mutex unlock, even though it happens with the mutex held.
Rusty has some patches to split this function up into some helper
functions, hopefully the mess of complex goto targets will go away
eventually.

module: put modules in list much earlier.
module: add new state MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED.
module: prevent warning when finit_module a 0 sized file
virtio-blk: Don't free ida when disk is in use
If the default iosched is built as module, the kernel may deadlock
while trying to load the iosched module on device probe if the probing
was running off async. This is because async_synchronize_full() at
the end of module init ends up waiting for the async job which
initiated the module loading.
async A modprobe
1. finds a device
2. registers the block device
3. request_module(default iosched)
4. modprobe in userland
5. load and init module
6. async_synchronize_full()
Async A waits for modprobe to finish in request_module() and modprobe
waits for async A to finish in async_synchronize_full().
Because there's no easy to track dependency once control goes out to
userland, implementing properly nested flushing is difficult. For
now, make module init perform async_synchronize_full() iff module init
has queued async jobs as suggested by Linus.
This avoids the described deadlock because iosched module doesn't use
async and thus wouldn't invoke async_synchronize_full(). This is
hacky and incomplete. It will deadlock if async module loading nests;
however, this works around the known problem case and seems to be the
best of bad options.
For more details, please refer to the following thread.
