This patch makes it possible to pass additional arguments in addition
to uevent action name when writing /sys/.../uevent attribute. These
additional arguments are then inserted into generated synthetic uevent
as additional environment variables.
Before, we were not able to pass any additional uevent environment
variables for synthetic uevents. This made it hard to identify such uevents
properly in userspace to make proper distinction between genuine uevents
originating from kernel and synthetic uevents triggered from userspace.
Also, it was not possible to pass any additional information which would
make it possible to optimize and change the way the synthetic uevents are
processed back in userspace based on the originating environment of the
triggering action in userspace. With the extra additional variables, we are
able to pass through this extra information needed and also it makes it
possible to synchronize with such synthetic uevents as they can be clearly
identified back in userspace.
The format for writing the uevent attribute is following:
ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...]
There's no change in how "ACTION" is recognized - it stays the same
("add", "change", "remove"). The "ACTION" is the only argument required
to generate synthetic uevent, the rest of arguments, that this patch
adds support for, are optional.
The "UUID" is considered as transaction identifier so it's possible to
use the same UUID value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case
we logically group these uevents together for any userspace listeners.
The "UUID" is expected to be in "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
format where "x" is a hex digit. The value appears in uevent as
"SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" environment variable.
The "KEY=VALUE" pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only. It's
possible to define zero or more more pairs - each pair is then delimited
by a space character " ". Each pair appears in synthetic uevents as
"SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE" environment variable. That means the KEY name gains
"SYNTH_ARG_" prefix to avoid possible collisions with existing variables.
To pass the "KEY=VALUE" pairs, it's also required to pass in the "UUID"
part for the synthetic uevent first.
If "UUID" is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains
"SYNTH_UUID=0" environment variable automatically so it's possible to
identify this situation in userspace when reading generated uevent and so
we can still make a difference between genuine and synthetic uevents.

Accessing the mod structure (e.g. for mod->name) prior to having completed
check_modstruct_version() can result in writing garbage to the error logs
if the layout of the mod structure loaded from disk doesn't match the
running kernel's mod structure layout. This kind of mismatch will become
much more likely if a kernel is built with different randomization seed
for the struct layout randomization plugin.
Instead, add and use a new modinfo string for logging the module name.

__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying
allocation. This API is quite popular
$ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l
77
The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want
to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no
reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages
which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't
use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily
too complex.
This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to
be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM
are simplified and drop the flag.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"Fourteen audit patches for v4.12 that span the full range of fixes,
new features, and internal cleanups.
We have a patches to move to 64-bit timestamps, convert refcounts from
atomic_t to refcount_t, track PIDs using the pid struct instead of
pid_t, convert our own private audit buffer cache to a standard
kmem_cache, log kernel module names when they are unloaded, and
normalize the NETFILTER_PKT to make the userspace folks happier.
From a fixes perspective, the most important is likely the auditd
connection tracking RCU fix; it was a rather brain dead bug that I'll
take the blame for, but thankfully it didn't seem to affect many
people (only one report).
I think the patch subject lines and commit descriptions do a pretty
good job of explaining the details and why the changes are important
so I'll point you there instead of duplicating it here; as usual, if
you have any questions you know where to find us.
We also manage to take out more code than we put in this time, that
always makes me happy :)"
* 'stable-4.12' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:
audit: fix the RCU locking for the auditd_connection structure
audit: use kmem_cache to manage the audit_buffer cache
audit: Use timespec64 to represent audit timestamps
audit: store the auditd PID as a pid struct instead of pid_t
audit: kernel generated netlink traffic should have a portid of 0
audit: combine audit_receive() and audit_receive_skb()
audit: convert audit_watch.count from atomic_t to refcount_t
audit: convert audit_tree.count from atomic_t to refcount_t
audit: normalize NETFILTER_PKT
netfilter: use consistent ipv4 network offset in xt_AUDIT
audit: log module name on delete_module
audit: remove unnecessary semicolon in audit_watch_handle_event()
audit: remove unnecessary semicolon in audit_mark_handle_event()
audit: remove unnecessary semicolon in audit_field_valid()

the separator, when we know that the module name can't be longer than
MODULE_NAME_LEN. Enforce the same using strnchr().

Since commit 383776fa75 ("locking/lockdep: Handle statically initialized
PER_CPU locks properly") we try to collapse per-cpu locks into a single
class by giving them all the same key. For this key we choose the canonical
address of the per-cpu object, which would be the offset into the per-cpu
area.
This has two problems:
- there is a case where we run !0 lock->key through static_obj() and
expect this to pass; it doesn't for canonical pointers.
- 0 is a valid canonical address.
Cure both issues by redefining the canonical address as the address of the
per-cpu variable on the boot CPU.
Since I didn't want to rely on CPU0 being the boot-cpu, or even existing at
all, track the boot CPU in a variable.

If a PER_CPU struct which contains a spin_lock is statically initialized
via:
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct foo, bla) = {
.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bla.lock)
};
then lockdep assigns a seperate key to each lock because the logic for
assigning a key to statically initialized locks is to use the address as
the key. With per CPU locks the address is obvioulsy different on each CPU.
That's wrong, because all locks should have the same key.
To solve this the following modifications are required:
1) Extend the is_kernel/module_percpu_addr() functions to hand back the
canonical address of the per CPU address, i.e. the per CPU address
minus the per CPU offset.
2) Check the lock address with these functions and if the per CPU check
matches use the returned canonical address as the lock key, so all per
CPU locks have the same key.
3) Move the static_obj(key) check into look_up_lock_class() so this check
can be avoided for statically initialized per CPU locks. That's
required because the canonical address fails the static_obj(key) check
for obvious reasons.

"The audit changes for v4.11 are relatively small compared to what we
did for v4.10, both in terms of size and impact.
- two patches from Steve tweak the formatting for some of the audit
records to make them more consistent with other audit records.
- three patches from Richard record the name of a module on module
load, fix the logging of sockaddr information when using
socketcall() on 32-bit systems, and add the ability to reset
audit's lost record counter.
- my lone patch just fixes an annoying style nit that I was reminded
about by one of Richard's patches.
All these patches pass our test suite"

While looking for early possible module loading failures I was
able to reproduce a memory leak possible with kmemleak. There
are a few rare ways to trigger a failure:
o we've run into a failure while processing kernel parameters
(parse_args() returns an error)
o mod_sysfs_setup() fails
o we're a live patch module and copy_module_elf() fails
Chances of running into this issue is really low.

These files were including module.h for exception table related
functions. We've now separated that content out into its own file
"extable.h" so now move over to that and where possible, avoid all
the extra header content in module.h that we don't really need to
compile these non-modular files.
Note:
init/main.c still needs module.h for __init_or_module
kernel/extable.c still needs module.h for is_module_text_address
...and so we don't get the benefit of removing module.h from the cpp
feed for these two files, unlike the almost universal 1:1 exchange
of module.h for extable.h we were able to do in the arch dirs.

The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us
to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to
associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value.
This has a couple of downsides:
- Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes
for each CRC on 64 bit architectures,
- On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE
relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it
as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime
load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we
explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the
core module code)
- Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space
each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for
CRCs.
Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most
of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities
that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note
that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values
are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if
the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations
are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on
powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC
references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC
value is stored.
So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the
__CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using
inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use
32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately
resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid
potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy
toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained
for 32-bit architectures.
Note that this mostly reverts commit d4703aefdb ("module: handle ppc64
relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y")

This enables CONFIG_MODVERSIONS again, but allows for missing symbol CRC
information in order to work around the issue that newer binutils
versions seem to occasionally drop the CRC on the floor. binutils 2.26
seems to work fine, while binutils 2.27 seems to break MODVERSIONS of
symbols that have been defined in assembler files.
[ We've had random missing CRC's before - it may be an old problem that
just is now reliably triggered with the weak asm symbols and a new
version of binutils ]
Some day I really do want to remove MODVERSIONS entirely. Sadly, today
does not appear to be that day: Debian people apparently do want the
option to enable MODVERSIONS to make it easier to have external modules
across kernel versions, and this seems to be a fairly minimal fix for
the annoying problem.

The current "rodata=off" parameter disables read-only kernel mappings
under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA:
commit d2aa1acad2 ("mm/init: Add 'rodata=off' boot cmdline parameter

This patch is a logical extension to module mappings ie. read-only mappings
at module loading can be disabled even if CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX
(mainly for debug use). Please note, however, that it only affects RO/RW
permissions, keeping NX set.
This is the first step to make CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX mandatory
(always-on) in the future as CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA on x86 and arm64.

The commit 66cc69e34e ("Fix: module signature vs tracepoints:
add new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE") updated module_taint_flags() to
potentially print one more character. But it did not increase the
size of the corresponding buffers in m_show() and print_modules().
We have recently done the same mistake when adding a taint flag
for livepatching, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/cfba2c823bb984690b73572aaae1db596b54a082.1472137475.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com
Also struct module uses an incompatible type for mod-taints flags.
It survived from the commit 2bc2d61a96 ("[PATCH] list module
taint flags in Oops/panic"). There was used "int" for the global taint
flags at these times. But only the global tain flags was later changed
to "unsigned long" by the commit 25ddbb18aa ("Make the taint
flags reliable").
This patch defines TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT that can be used to create
arrays and buffers of the right size. Note that we could not use
enum because the taint flag indexes are used also in assembly code.
Then it reworks the table that describes the taint flags. The TAINT_*
numbers can be used as the index. Instead, we add information
if the taint flag is also shown per-module.
Finally, it uses "unsigned long", bit operations, and the updated
taint_flags table also for mod->taints.
It is not optimal because only few taint flags can be printed by
module_taint_flags(). But better be on the safe side. IMHO, it is
not worth the optimization and this is a good compromise.

There's no reliable way to determine which module tainted the kernel
with TAINT_LIVEPATCH. For example, /sys/module/<klp module>/taint
doesn't report it. Neither does the "mod -t" command in the crash tool.
Make it crystal clear who the guilty party is by associating
TAINT_LIVEPATCH with any module which sets the "livepatch" modinfo
attribute. The flag will still get set in the kernel like before, but
now it also sets the same flag in mod->taint.
Note that now the taint flag gets set when the module is loaded rather
than when it's enabled.
I also renamed find_livepatch_modinfo() to check_modinfo_livepatch() to
better reflect its purpose: it's basically a livepatch-specific
sub-function of check_modinfo().

Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current
procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't
cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one
is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist
runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss,
and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT.
This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module
by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name.

For livepatch modules, copy Elf section, symbol, and string information
from the load_info struct in the module loader. Persist copies of the
original symbol table and string table.
Livepatch manages its own relocation sections in order to reuse module
loader code to write relocations. Livepatch modules must preserve Elf
information such as section indices in order to apply livepatch relocation
sections using the module loader's apply_relocate_add() function.
In order to apply livepatch relocation sections, livepatch modules must
keep a complete copy of their original symbol table in memory. Normally, a
stripped down copy of a module's symbol table (containing only "core"
symbols) is made available through module->core_symtab. But for livepatch
modules, the symbol table copied into memory on module load must be exactly
the same as the symbol table produced when the patch module was compiled.
This is because the relocations in each livepatch relocation section refer
to their respective symbols with their symbol indices, and the original
symbol indices (and thus the symtab ordering) must be preserved in order
for apply_relocate_add() to find the right symbol.

Remove the livepatch module notifier in favor of directly enabling and
disabling patches to modules in the module loader. Hard-coding the
function calls ensures that ftrace_module_enable() is run before
klp_module_coming() during module load, and that klp_module_going() is
run before ftrace_release_mod() during module unload. This way, ftrace
and livepatch code is run in the correct order during the module
load/unload sequence without dependence on the module notifier call chain.

Replace copy_module_from_fd() with kernel_read_file_from_fd().
Although none of the upstreamed LSMs define a kernel_module_from_file
hook, IMA is called, based on policy, to prevent unsigned kernel modules
from being loaded by the original kernel module syscall and to
measure/appraise signed kernel modules.
The security function security_kernel_module_from_file() was called prior
to reading a kernel module. Preventing unsigned kernel modules from being
loaded by the original kernel module syscall remains on the pre-read
kernel_read_file() security hook. Instead of reading the kernel module
twice, once for measuring/appraising and again for loading the kernel
module, the signature validation is moved to the kernel_post_read_file()
security hook.
This patch removes the security_kernel_module_from_file() hook and security
call.

Hard-coding the function calls directly in the module loader removes

to kernel utilities such as livepatch.
This fixes a notifier ordering issue in which the ftrace module notifier
(and hence ftrace_module_enable()) for coming modules was being called
after klp_module_notify(), which caused livepatch modules to initialize
incorrectly. This patch removes dependence on the module notifier call
chain in favor of hard coding the corresponding function calls in the
module loader. This ensures that ftrace and livepatch code get called in

For CONFIG_KALLSYMS, we keep two symbol tables and two string tables.
There's one full copy, marked SHF_ALLOC and laid out at the end of the
module's init section. There's also a cut-down version that only
contains core symbols and strings, and lives in the module's core
section.
After module init (and before we free the module memory), we switch
the mod->symtab, mod->num_symtab and mod->strtab to point to the core
versions. We do this under the module_mutex.
However, kallsyms doesn't take the module_mutex: it uses
preempt_disable() and rcu tricks to walk through the modules, because
it's used in the oops path. It's also used in /proc/kallsyms.
There's nothing atomic about the change of these variables, so we can
get the old (larger!) num_symtab and the new symtab pointer; in fact
this is what I saw when trying to reproduce.
By grouping these variables together, we can use a
carefully-dereferenced pointer to ensure we always get one or the
other (the free of the module init section is already done in an RCU
callback, so that's safe). We allocate the init one at the end of the
module init section, and keep the core one inside the struct module
itself (it could also have been allocated at the end of the module
core, but that's probably overkill).

If the module init code fails after calling ftrace_module_init() and before
calling do_init_module(), we can suffer from a memory leak. This is because
ftrace_module_init() allocates pages to store the locations that ftrace
hooks are placed in the module text. If do_init_module() fails, it still
calls the MODULE_GOING notifiers which will tell ftrace to do a clean up of
the pages it allocated for the module. But if load_module() fails before
then, the pages allocated by ftrace_module_init() will never be freed.
Call ftrace_release_mod() on the module if load_module() fails before
getting to do_init_module().

Currently, percpu symbols from .data..percpu ELF section of a module are
not copied over and stored in final symtab array of struct module.
Consequently such symbol cannot be returned via kallsyms API (for
example kallsyms_lookup_name). This can be especially confusing when the
percpu symbol is exported. Only its __ksymtab et al. are present in its
symtab.
The culprit is in layout_and_allocate() function where SHF_ALLOC flag is
dropped for .data..percpu section. There is in fact no need to copy the
section to final struct module, because kernel module loader allocates
extra percpu section by itself. Unfortunately only symbols from
SHF_ALLOC sections are copied due to a check in is_core_symbol().
The patch changes is_core_symbol() function to copy over also percpu
symbols (their st_shndx points to .data..percpu ELF section). We do it
only if CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL is set to be consistent with the rest of the
function (ELF section is SHF_ALLOC but !SHF_EXECINSTR). Finally
elf_type() returns type 'a' for a percpu symbol because its address is
absolute.

Modules have three sections: text, rodata and writable data. The code
handled the case where these overlapped, however they never can:
debug_align() ensures they are always page-aligned.
This is why we got away with manually traversing the pages in
set_all_modules_text_rw() without rounding.
We create three helper functions: frob_text(), frob_rodata() and
frob_writable_data(). We then call these explicitly at every point,
so it's clear what we're doing.
We also expose module_enable_ro() and module_disable_ro() for
livepatch to use.

The unset functions don't have the same checks the set function has for

doesn't need to disable preemption around the module lookup
because it holds a reference to the module it wants to find, which
therefore cannot go away.
This is wrong (and a false optimization too, preempt_disable() is really
rather cheap, and I doubt any of this is on uber critical paths,
otherwise it would've retained a pointer to the actual module anyway and
avoided the second lookup).
While its true that the module cannot go away while we hold a reference
on it, the data structure we do the lookup in very much _CAN_ change
while we do the lookup. Therefore fix the comment and add the
required preempt_disable().

Here is the driver core / firmware changes for 4.2-rc1.
A number of small changes all over the place in the driver core, and in
the firmware subsystem. Nothing really major, full details in the
shortlog. Some of it is a bit of churn, given that the platform driver
probing changes was found to not work well, so they were reverted.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

"monitonic raw". Also some enhancements to make the ring buffer even
faster. But the biggest and most noticeable change is the renaming of
the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to deal with
trace events.
Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their confusion
with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically, "ftrace" is the
infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include tracing and also
helps with live kernel patching. But the trace events are a separate
entity altogether, and the files that affect the trace events should
not be named "ftrace". These include:
include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h
include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h
Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed:
ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*()
(un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event()
ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name()
ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled()-> trace_trigger_soft_disabled()
ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call()
ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call()
Structures have been renamed:
ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file
ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class}
ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer
ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir
ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call
ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call
ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call
And a few various variables and flags have also been updated.
This has been sitting in linux-next for some time, and I have not heard
a single complaint about this rename breaking anything. Mostly because
these functions, variables and structures are mostly internal to the
tracing system and are seldom (if ever) used by anything external to that.

Add a "param_lock" mutex to each module, and update params.c to use
the correct built-in or module mutex while locking kernel params.
Remove the kparam_block_sysfs_r/w() macros, replace them with direct
calls to kernel_param_[un]lock(module).
The kernel param code currently uses a single mutex to protect
modification of any and all kernel params. While this generally works,
there is one specific problem with it; a module callback function
cannot safely load another module, i.e. with request_module() or even
with indirect calls such as crypto_has_alg(). If the module to be
loaded has any of its params configured (e.g. with a /etc/modprobe.d/*
config file), then the attempt will result in a deadlock between the
first module param callback waiting for modprobe, and modprobe trying to
lock the single kernel param mutex to set the new module's param.
This fixes that by using per-module mutexes, so that each individual module
is protected against concurrent changes in its own kernel params, but is
not blocked by changes to other module params. All built-in modules
continue to use the built-in mutex, since they will always be loaded at
runtime and references (e.g. request_module(), crypto_has_alg()) to them
will never cause load-time param changing.
This also simplifies the interface used by modules to block sysfs access
to their params; while there are currently functions to block and unblock
sysfs param access which are split up by read and write and expect a single
kernel param to be passed, their actual operation is identical and applies
to all params, not just the one passed to them; they simply lock and unlock
the global param mutex. They are replaced with direct calls to
kernel_param_[un]lock(THIS_MODULE), which locks THIS_MODULE's param_lock, or
if the module is built-in, it locks the built-in mutex.

There's no need to require an ifdef over the declaration
of sig_enforce as IS_ENABLED() can be used. While at it,
there's no harm in exposing this kernel parameter outside of
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG as it'd be a no-op on non module sig
kernels.
Now, technically we should in theory be able to remove
the #ifdef'ery over the declaration of the module parameter
as we are also trusting the bool_enable_only code for
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG kernels but for now remain paranoid
and keep it.
With time if no one can put a bullet through bool_enable_only
and if there are no technical requirements over not exposing
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE with the measures in place by
bool_enable_only we could remove this last ifdef.

__module_address() does an initial bound check before doing the
{list/tree} iteration to find the actual module. The bound variables
are nowhere near the mod_tree cacheline, in fact they're nowhere near
one another.
module_addr_min lives in .data while module_addr_max lives in .bss
(smarty pants GCC thinks the explicit 0 assignment is a mistake).
Rectify this by moving the two variables into a structure together
with the latch_tree_root to guarantee they all share the same
cacheline and avoid hitting two extra cachelines for the lookup.
While reworking the bounds code, move the bound update from allocation
to insertion time, this avoids updating the bounds for a few error
paths.

Currently __module_address() is using a linear search through all
modules in order to find the module corresponding to the provided
address. With a lot of modules this can take a lot of time.
One of the users of this is kernel_text_address() which is employed
in many stack unwinders; which in turn are used by perf-callchain and
ftrace (possibly from NMI context).
So by optimizing __module_address() we optimize many stack unwinders
which are used by both perf and tracing in performance sensitive code.

Currently the RCU usage in module is an inconsistent mess of RCU and
RCU-sched, this is broken for CONFIG_PREEMPT where synchronize_rcu()
does not imply synchronize_sched().
Most usage sites use preempt_{dis,en}able() which is RCU-sched, but
(most of) the modification sites use synchronize_rcu(). With the
exception of the module bug list, which actually uses RCU.
Convert everything over to RCU-sched.
Furthermore add lockdep asserts to all sites, because it's not at all
clear to me the required locking is observed, esp. on exported
functions.

Some init systems may wish to express the desire to have device drivers
run their probe() code asynchronously. This implements support for this
and allows userspace to request async probe as a preference through a
generic shared device driver module parameter, async_probe.
Implementation for async probe is supported through a module parameter
given that since synchronous probe has been prevalent for years some
userspace might exist which relies on the fact that the device driver
will probe synchronously and the assumption that devices it provides
will be immediately available after this.

The module notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_COMING was moved up before
the parsing of args, into the complete_formation() call. But if the module failed
to load after that, the notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_GOING was
never called and that prevented the users of those call chains from
cleaning up anything that was allocated.

Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that
user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data
and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values
by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the
format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings
in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is
shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently
has this in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },

Unlike most (all?) other copies from user space, kernel module loading
is almost unlimited in size. So we do a potentially huge
"copy_from_user()" when we copy the module data from user space to the
kernel buffer, which can be a latency concern when preemption is
disabled (or voluntary).
Also, because 'copy_from_user()' clears the tail of the kernel buffer on
failures, even a *failed* copy can end up wasting a lot of time.
Normally neither of these are concerns in real life, but they do trigger
when doing stress-testing with trinity. Running in a VM seems to add
its own overheadm causing trinity module load testing to even trigger
the watchdog.
The simple fix is to just chunk up the module loading, so that it never
tries to copy insanely big areas in one go. That bounds the latency,
and also the amount of (unnecessarily, in this case) cleared memory for
the failure case.

init_module(2) passes user-specified buffer length directly to
vmalloc(). It makes warn_alloc_failed() to print out a lot of info into
dmesg if user specified insane size, like -1.
Let's silence the warning. It doesn't add much value to -ENOMEM return
code. Without the patch the syscall is prohibitive noisy for testing
with trinity.

Module unload calls lockdep_free_key_range(), which removes entries
from the data structures. Most of the lockdep code OTOH assumes the
data structures are append only; in specific see the comments in
add_lock_to_list() and look_up_lock_class().
Clearly this has only worked by accident; make it work proper. The
actual scenario to make it go boom would involve the memory freed by
the module unlock being re-allocated and re-used for a lock inside of
a rcu-sched grace period. This is a very unlikely scenario, still
better plug the hole.
Use RCU list iteration in all places and ammend the comments.
Change lockdep_free_key_range() to issue a sync_sched() between
removal from the lists and returning -- which results in the memory
being freed. Further ensure the callers are placed correctly and
comment the requirements.

Current approach in handling shadow memory for modules is broken.
Shadow memory could be freed only after memory shadow corresponds it is no
longer used. vfree() called from interrupt context could use memory its
freeing to store 'struct llist_node' in it:
void vfree(const void *addr)
{
...
if (unlikely(in_interrupt())) {
struct vfree_deferred *p = this_cpu_ptr(&vfree_deferred);
if (llist_add((struct llist_node *)addr, &p->list))
schedule_work(&p->wq);
Later this list node used in free_work() which actually frees memory.
Currently module_memfree() called in interrupt context will free shadow
before freeing module's memory which could provoke kernel crash.
So shadow memory should be freed after module's memory. However, such
deallocation order could race with kasan_module_alloc() in module_alloc().
Free shadow right before releasing vm area. At this point vfree()'d
memory is not used anymore and yet not available for other allocations.
New VM_KASAN flag used to indicate that vm area has dynamically allocated
shadow memory so kasan frees shadow only if it was previously allocated.

This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables.
This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules.
Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g.
__init, __read_mostly, ...)
The idea of this is simple. Compiler increases each global variable by
redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals()
function. Information about global variable (address, size, size with
redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison
variable's redzone.
This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned
address making shadow memory handling (
kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple. Such alignment
guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond
to only one module_alloc() allocation.

The kallsyms routines (module_symbol_name, lookup_module_* etc) disable
preemption to walk the modules rather than taking the module_mutex:
this is because they are used for symbol resolution during oopses.
This works because there are synchronize_sched() and synchronize_rcu()
in the unload and failure paths. However, there's one case which doesn't
have that: the normal case where module loading succeeds, and we free
the init section.
We don't want a synchronize_rcu() there, because it would slow down
module loading: this bug was introduced in 2009 to speed module
loading in the first place.
Thus, we want to do the free in an RCU callback. We do this in the
simplest possible way by allocating a new rcu_head: if we put it in
the module structure we'd have to worry about that getting freed.

Archs have been abusing module_free() to clean up their arch-specific

let's keep it to simple allocations, and provide a hook called before
that.

their own module_free() at all. avr32 doesn't need module_finalize()

Remove stop_machine from module unloading by adding new reference
counting algorithm.
This atomic refcounter works like a semaphore, it can get (be
incremented) only when the counter is not 0. When loading a module,
kmodule subsystem sets the counter MODULE_REF_BASE (= 1). And when
unloading the module, it subtracts MODULE_REF_BASE from the counter.
If no one refers the module, the refcounter becomes 0 and we can
remove the module safely. If someone referes it, we try to recover
the counter by adding MODULE_REF_BASE unless the counter becomes 0,
because the referrer can put the module right before recovering.
If the recovering is failed, we can get the 0 refcount and it
never be incremented again, it can be removed safely too.
Note that __module_get() forcibly gets the module refcounter,
users should use try_module_get() instead of that.

Consider the two processes running on the system.
CPU 0 (/proc/modules reader)
CPU 1 (loading/unloading module)
CPU 0 opens /proc/modules, and starts displaying data for each module by
traversing the modules list via fs/seq_file.c:seq_open() and
fs/seq_file.c:seq_read(). For each module in the modules list, seq_read
does
op->start() <-- this is a pointer to m_start()
op->show() <- this is a pointer to m_show()
op->stop() <-- this is a pointer to m_stop()
The m_start(), m_show(), and m_stop() module functions are defined in
kernel/module.c. The m_start() and m_stop() functions acquire and release
the module_mutex respectively.
ie) When reading /proc/modules, the module_mutex is acquired and released
for each module.
m_show() is called with the module_mutex held. It accesses the module
struct data and attempts to write out module data. It is in this code
path that the above BUG_ON() warning is encountered, specifically m_show()
calls
static char *module_flags(struct module *mod, char *buf)
{
int bx = 0;
BUG_ON(mod->state == MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED);
...
The other thread, CPU 1, in unloading the module calls the syscall
delete_module() defined in kernel/module.c. The module_mutex is acquired
for a short time, and then released. free_module() is called without the
module_mutex. free_module() then sets mod->state = MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED,
also without the module_mutex. Some additional code is called and then the
module_mutex is reacquired to remove the module from the modules list:
/* Now we can delete it from the lists */
mutex_lock(&module_mutex);
stop_machine(__unlink_module, mod, NULL);
mutex_unlock(&module_mutex);
This is the sequence of events that leads to the panic.
CPU 1 is removing dummy_module via delete_module(). It acquires the
module_mutex, and then releases it. CPU 1 has NOT set dummy_module->state to
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED yet.
CPU 0, which is reading the /proc/modules, acquires the module_mutex and
acquires a pointer to the dummy_module which is still in the modules list.
CPU 0 calls m_show for dummy_module. The check in m_show() for
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED passed for dummy_module even though it is being
torn down.
Meanwhile CPU 1, which has been continuing to remove dummy_module without
holding the module_mutex, now calls free_module() and sets
dummy_module->state to MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED.
CPU 0 now calls module_flags() with dummy_module and ...
static char *module_flags(struct module *mod, char *buf)
{
int bx = 0;
BUG_ON(mod->state == MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED);
and BOOM.
Acquire and release the module_mutex lock around the setting of
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED in the teardown path, which should resolve the
problem.
Testing: In the unpatched kernel I can panic the system within 1 minute by
doing
while (true) do insmod dummy_module.ko; rmmod dummy_module.ko; done
and
while (true) do cat /proc/modules; done
in separate terminals.
In the patched kernel I was able to run just over one hour without seeing
any issues. I also verified the output of panic via sysrq-c and the output
of /proc/modules looks correct for all three states for the dummy_module.
dummy_module 12661 0 - Unloading 0xffffffffa03a5000 (OE-)
dummy_module 12661 0 - Live 0xffffffffa03bb000 (OE)
dummy_module 14015 1 - Loading 0xffffffffa03a5000 (OE+)

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.

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.

Here is the workaround I made for having the kernel not reject modules
built with -flto. The clean solution would be to get the compiler to not
emit the symbol. Or if it has to emit the symbol, then emit it as
initialized data but put it into a comdat/linkonce section.
Minor tweaks by AK over Joe's patch.

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.

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

case the change made the ddebug_cleanup path jump to after the module
mutex unlock, even though it happens with the mutex held.

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.

In commit d0a21265df David Rientjes unified various archs'
module_alloc implementation (including x86) and removed the graduitous
shortcut for size == 0.
Then, in commit de7d2b567d, Joe Perches added a warning for
zero-length vmallocs, which can happen without kallsyms on modules
with no init sections (eg. zlib_deflate).
Fix this once and for all; the module code has to handle zero length
anyway, so get it right at the caller and remove the now-gratuitous
checks within the arch-specific module_alloc implementations.

As part of the effort to create a stronger boundary between root and
kernel, Chrome OS wants to be able to enforce that kernel modules are
being loaded only from our read-only crypto-hash verified (dm_verity)
root filesystem. Since the init_module syscall hands the kernel a module
as a memory blob, no reasoning about the origin of the blob can be made.
Earlier proposals for appending signatures to kernel modules would not be
useful in Chrome OS, since it would involve adding an additional set of
keys to our kernel and builds for no good reason: we already trust the
contents of our root filesystem. We don't need to verify those kernel
modules a second time. Having to do signature checking on module loading
would slow us down and be redundant. All we need to know is where a
module is coming from so we can say yes/no to loading it.
If a file descriptor is used as the source of a kernel module, many more
things can be reasoned about. In Chrome OS's case, we could enforce that
the module lives on the filesystem we expect it to live on. In the case
of IMA (or other LSMs), it would be possible, for example, to examine
extended attributes that may contain signatures over the contents of
the module.
This introduces a new syscall (on x86), similar to init_module, that has
only two arguments. The first argument is used as a file descriptor to
the module and the second argument is a pointer to the NULL terminated
string of module arguments.

Masaki found and patched a kallsyms issue: the last symbol in a
module's symtab wasn't transferred. This is because we manually copy
the zero'th entry (which is always empty) then copy the rest in a loop
starting at 1, though from src[0]. His fix was minimal, I prefer to
rewrite the loops in more standard form.
There are two loops: one to get the size, and one to copy. Make these
identical: always count entry 0 and any defined symbol in an allocated
non-init section.
This bug exists since the following commit was introduced.

Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the
signature data instead of before it. This allows module_sig_check() to
be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the
magic string. Instead we just need to do a single memcmp().
This works because at the end of the signature data there is the
fixed-length signature information block. This block then falls
immediately prior to the magic number.
From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate
the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module
data.

We do a very simple search for a particular string appended to the module
(which is cache-hot and about to be SHA'd anyway). There's both a config
option and a boot parameter which control whether we accept or fail with
unsigned modules and modules that are signed with an unknown key.
If module signing is enabled, the kernel will be tainted if a module is
loaded that is unsigned or has a signature for which we don't have the
key.

The original module-init-tools module loader used a fnctl lock on the
.ko file to avoid attempts to simultaneously load a module.
Unfortunately, you can't get an exclusive fcntl lock on a read-only
fd, making this not work for read-only mounted filesystems.
module-init-tools has a hacky sleep-and-loop for this now.
It's not that hard to wait in the kernel, and only return -EEXIST once
the first module has finished loading (or continue loading the module
if the first one failed to initialize for some reason). It's also
consistent with what we do for dependent modules which are still loading.

We use resolve_symbol_wait(), which blocks if the module containing
the symbol is still loading. However:
1) The module_wq we use is only woken after calling the modules' init
function, but there are other failure paths after the module is
placed in the linked list where we need to do the same thing.
2) wake_up() only wakes one waiter, and our waitqueue is shared by all
modules, so we need to wake them all.
3) wake_up_all() doesn't imply a memory barrier: I feel happier calling
it after we've grabbed and dropped the module_mutex, not just after
the state assignment.

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

This introduces a fake module param $module.dyndbg. Its based upon
Thomas Renninger's $module.ddebug boot-time debugging patch from
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/15/397
The 'fake' module parameter is provided for all modules, whether or
not they need it. It is not explicitly added to each module, but is
implemented in callbacks invoked from parse_args.
For builtin modules, dynamic_debug_init() now directly calls
parse_args(..., &ddebug_dyndbg_boot_params_cb), to process the params
undeclared in the modules, just after the ddebug tables are processed.
While its slightly weird to reprocess the boot params, parse_args() is
already called repeatedly by do_initcall_levels(). More importantly,
the dyndbg queries (given in ddebug_query or dyndbg params) cannot be
activated until after the ddebug tables are ready, and reusing
parse_args is cleaner than doing an ad-hoc parse. This reparse would
break options like inc_verbosity, but they probably should be params,
like verbosity=3.
ddebug_dyndbg_boot_params_cb() handles both bare dyndbg (aka:
ddebug_query) and module-prefixed dyndbg params, and ignores all other
parameters. For example, the following will enable pr_debug()s in 4
builtin modules, in the order given:
dyndbg="module params +p; module aio +p" module.dyndbg=+p pci.dyndbg
For loadable modules, parse_args() in load_module() calls
ddebug_dyndbg_module_params_cb(). This handles bare dyndbg params as
passed from modprobe, and errors on other unknown params.
Note that modprobe reads /proc/cmdline, so "modprobe foo" grabs all
foo.params, strips the "foo.", and passes these to the kernel.
ddebug_dyndbg_module_params_cb() is again called for the unknown
params; it handles dyndbg, and errors on others. The "doing" arg
added previously contains the module name.
For non CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG builds, the stub function accepts
and ignores $module.dyndbg params, other unknowns get -ENOENT.
If no param value is given (as in pci.dyndbg example above), "+p" is
assumed, which enables all pr_debug callsites in the module.
The dyndbg fake parameter is not shown in /sys/module/*/parameters,
thus it does not use any resources. Changes to it are made via the
control file.
Also change pr_info in ddebug_exec_queries to vpr_info,
no need to see it all the time.

Instead of making the add_kallsyms() loop even more complex, I tried the
other route of deleting the strmap logic and naively copying each string
into core_strtab with no consideration for consolidating duplicates.
Performance on an "already exists" insmod of nvidia.ko (runs
add_kallsyms() but does not actually initialize the module):

Dynamic debugging is currently disabled for tainted modules, except
for TAINT_CRAP. This prevents use of dynamic debugging for
out-of-tree modules once the next patch is applied.
This condition was apparently intended to avoid a crash if a force-
loaded module has an incompatible definition of dynamic debug
structures. However, a administrator that forces us to load a module
is claiming that it *is* compatible even though it fails our version
checks. If they are mistaken, there are any number of ways the module
could crash the system.
As a side-effect, proprietary and other tainted modules can now use

Copy the information needed from struct module into a local module list
held within tracepoint.c from within the module coming/going notifier.
This vastly simplifies locking of tracepoint registration /
unregistration, because we don't have to take the module mutex to
register and unregister tracepoints anymore. Steven Rostedt ran into
dependency problems related to modules mutex vs kprobes mutex vs ftrace
mutex vs tracepoint mutex that seems to be hard to fix without removing
this dependency between tracepoint and module mutex. (note: it should be
investigated whether kprobes could benefit of being dissociated from the
modules mutex too.)
This also fixes module handling of tracepoint list iterators, because it
was expecting the list to be sorted by pointer address. Given we have
control on our own list now, it's OK to sort this list which has
tracepoints as its only purpose. The reason why this sorting is required
is to handle the fact that seq files (and any read() operation from
user-space) cannot hold the tracepoint mutex across multiple calls, so
list entries may vanish between calls. With sorting, the tracepoint
iterator becomes usable even if the list don't contain the exact item
pointed to by the iterator anymore.

modules. Now that both have their symbols sorted we can replace a linear search
with a binary search which provide a considerably speed-up.

While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module
pages.
First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of
a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set
to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is
protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to
module_core + core_size is set back to RW.
So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW.
This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric.
Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for
RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that
the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed,
which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

In an effort to reduce kernel address leaks that might be used to help
target kernel privilege escalation exploits, this patch uses %pK when
displaying addresses in /proc/kallsyms, /proc/modules, and
/sys/module/*/sections/*.
Note that this changes %x to %p, so some legitimately 0 values in
/proc/kallsyms would have changed from 00000000 to "(null)". To avoid
this, "(null)" is not used when using the "K" format. Anything that was
already successfully parsing "(null)" in addition to full hex digits
should have no problem with this change. (Thanks to Joe Perches for the
suggestion.) Due to the %x to %p, "void *" casts are needed since these
addresses are already "unsigned long" everywhere internally, due to their
starting life as ELF section offsets.

Make the tracepoints more robust, making them solid enough to handle compiler
changes by not relying on anything based on compiler-specific behavior with
respect to structure alignment. Implement an approach proposed by David Miller:
use an array of const pointers to refer to the individual structures, and export
this pointer array through the linker script rather than the structures per se.
It will consume 32 extra bytes per tracepoint (24 for structure padding and 8
for the pointers), but are less likely to break due to compiler changes.
History:
commit 7e066fb8 tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
added the aligned(32) type and variable attribute to the tracepoint structures
to deal with gcc happily aligning statically defined structures on 32-byte
multiples.
One attempt was to use a 8-byte alignment for tracepoint structures by applying
both the variable and type attribute to tracepoint structures definitions and
declarations. It worked fine with gcc 4.5.1, but broke with gcc 4.4.4 and 4.4.5.
The reason is that the "aligned" attribute only specify the _minimum_ alignment
for a structure, leaving both the compiler and the linker free to align on
larger multiples. Because tracepoint.c expects the structures to be placed as an
array within each section, up-alignment cause NULL-pointer exceptions due to the
extra unexpected padding.

The cause was that the module text was set to read only before ftrace

The simple fix is to move setting the module to read only after the

This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by
splitting module_core and module_init into three logical parts
each and setting appropriate page access permissions for each
individual section:
1. Code: RO+X
2. RO data: RO+NX
3. RW data: RW+NX
In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
permissions are set right before successful exit from
load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
before calling module_free().
By default, the original section layout and access flags are
preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
RO/NX for each group of pages.
-v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
-v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
been corrected.
-v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
-v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.
-v5: Changed page-alignment and RO/NX section size calculation
-v6: Fixed comments. Restricted RO/NX enforcement to x86 only
-v7: Introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, added
calls to set_all_modules_text_rw() and set_all_modules_text_ro()

On use of trace_printk() there's a macro that determines if the format
is static or a variable. If it is static, it defaults to __trace_bprintk()
otherwise it uses __trace_printk().
A while ago, Lai Jiangshan added __trace_bprintk(). In that patch, we
discussed a way to allow modules to use it. The difference between
__trace_bprintk() and __trace_printk() is that for faster processing,
just the format and args are stored in the trace instead of running
it through a sprintf function. In order to do this, the format used
by the __trace_bprintk() had to be persistent.
See commit 1ba28e02a1
The problem comes with trace_bprintk() where the module is unloaded.
The pointer left in the buffer is still pointing to the format.
To solve this issue, the formats in the module were copied into kernel
core. If the same format was used, they would use the same copy (to prevent
memory leak). This all worked well until we tried to merge everything.
At the time this was written, Lai Jiangshan, Frederic Weisbecker,
Ingo Molnar and myself were all touching the same code. When this was
merged, we lost the part of it that was in module.c. This kept out the
copying of the formats and unloading the module could cause bad pointers
left in the ring buffer.
This patch adds back (with updates required for current kernel) the
module code that sets up the necessary pointers.

With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.
However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling. That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.
Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.
So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.
Future fixups:
- move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
belongs.
- get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
(called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
for other reasons.

Andrew had the sole pleasure of tickling this bug in linux-next; when we set
up "info->strtab" it's pointing into the temporary copy of the module. For
most uses that is fine, but kallsyms keeps a pointer around during module
load (inside mod->strtab).
If we oops for some reason inside a module's init function, kallsyms will use
the mod->strtab pointer into the now-freed temporary module copy.
(Later oopses work fine: after init we overwrite mod->strtab to point to a
compacted core-only strtab).

Btw, here's a patch that _looks_ large, but it really pretty trivial, and
sets things up so that it would be way easier to split off pieces of the
module loading.
The reason it looks large is that it creates a "module_info" structure
that contains all the module state that we're building up while loading,
instead of having individual variables for all the indices etc.
So the patch ends up being large, because every "symindex" access instead
becomes "info.index.sym" etc. That may be a few characters longer, but it
then means that we can just pass a pointer to that "info" structure
around. and let all the pieces fill it in very naturally.
As an example of that, the patch also moves the initialization of all
those convenience variables into a "setup_module_info()" function. And at
this point it really does become very natural to start to peel off some of
the error labels and move them into the helper functions - now the
"truncated" case is gone, and is handled inside that setup function
instead.
So maybe you don't like this approach, and it does make the variable
accesses a bit longer, but I don't think unreadably so. And the patch
really does look big and scary, but there really should be absolutely no
semantic changes - most of it was a trivial and mindless rename.
In fact, it was so mindless that I on purpose kept the existing helper
functions looking like this:
- err = check_modinfo(mod, sechdrs, infoindex, versindex);
+ err = check_modinfo(mod, info.sechdrs, info.index.info, info.index.vers);
rather than changing them to just take the "info" pointer. IOW, a second
phase (if you think the approach is ok) would change that calling
convention to just do
err = check_modinfo(mod, &info);
(and same for "layout_sections()", "layout_symtabs()" etc.) Similarly,
while right now it makes things _look_ bigger, with things like this:
versindex = find_sec(hdr, sechdrs, secstrings, "__versions");
becoming
info->index.vers = find_sec(info->hdr, info->sechdrs, info->secstrings, "__versions");
in the new "setup_module_info()" function, that's again just a result of
it being a search-and-replace patch. By using the 'info' pointer, we could
just change the 'find_sec()' interface so that it ends up being
info->index.vers = find_sec(info, "__versions");
instead, and then we'd actually have a shorter and more readable line. So
for a lot of those mindless variable name expansions there's would be room
for separate cleanups.
I didn't move quite everything in there - if we do this to layout_symtabs,
for example, we'd want to move the percpu, symoffs, stroffs, *strmap
variables to be fields in that module_info structure too. But that's a
much smaller patch, I moved just the really core stuff that is currently
being set up and used in various parts.
But even in this rough form, it removes close to 70 lines from that
function (but adds 22 lines overall, of course - the structure definition,
the helper function declarations and call-sites etc etc).

And now that I'm looking at that call-chain (to see if it would make sense
to use some other more specific lock - doesn't look like it: all the

trivial one-liner. It changes each_symbol() to not put that constant array
on the stack, resulting in changing
movq $C.388.31095, %rsi #, tmp85
subq $376, %rsp #,
movq %rdi, %rbx # fn, fn
leaq -208(%rbp), %rdi #, tmp84

Problem: it's hard to avoid an init routine stumbling over a
request_module these days. And it's not clear it's always a bad idea:
for example, a module like kvm with dynamic dependencies on kvm-intel
or kvm-amd would be neater if it could simply request_module the right
one.
In this particular case, it's libcrc32c:
libcrc32c_mod_init
crypto_alloc_shash
crypto_alloc_tfm
crypto_find_alg
crypto_alg_mod_lookup
crypto_larval_lookup
request_module
If another module is waiting inside resolve_symbol() for libcrc32c to
finish initializing (ie. bne2 depends on libcrc32c) then it does so
holding the module lock, and our request_module() can't make progress
until that is released.
Waiting inside resolve_symbol() without the lock isn't all that hard:
we just need to pass the -EBUSY up the call chain so we can sleep
where we don't hold the lock. Error reporting is a bit trickier: we
need to copy the name of the unfinished module before releasing the
lock.
Other notes:
1) This also fixes a theoretical issue where a weak dependency would allow
symbol version mismatches to be ignored.
2) We rename use_module to ref_module to make life easier for the only
external user (the out-of-tree ksplice patches).

It disabled preempt so it was "safe", but nothing stops another module
slipping in before this module is added to the global list now we don't
hold the lock the whole time.
So we check this just after we check for duplicate modules, and just
before we put the module in the global list.
(find_symbol finds symbols in coming and going modules, too).

I think Rusty may have made the lock a bit _too_ finegrained there, and
didn't add it to some places that needed it. It looks, for example, like
PATCH 1/2 actually drops the lock in places where it's needed
("find_module()" is documented to need it, but now load_module() didn't
hold it at all when it did the find_module()).
Rather than adding a new "module_loading" list, I think we should be able
to just use the existing "modules" list, and just fix up the locking a
bit.
In fact, maybe we could just move the "look up existing module" a bit
later - optimistically assuming that the module doesn't exist, and then
just undoing the work if it turns out that we were wrong, just before
adding ourselves to the list.

Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> reports that we still have some
contention over module loading which is slowing boot.
Linus also disliked a previous "drop lock and regrab" patch to fix the
bne2 "gave up waiting for init of module libcrc32c" message.
This is more ambitious: we only grab the lock where we need it.

These were placed in the header in ef665c1a06 to get the various
SYSFS/MODULE config combintations to compile.
That may have been necessary then, but it's not now. These functions
are all local to module.c.
