modpost, kallsyms: Treat add '$'-prefixed symbols as mapping symbols
Trying to restrict the '$'-prefix change to RISC-V caused some fallout,
so let's just treat all those symbols as special.

module: Ignore RISC-V mapping symbols too
RISC-V has an extended form of mapping symbols that we use to encode the ISA when it changes in the middle of an ELF. This trips up modpost as a build failure, I haven't yet verified it yet but I believe the kallsyms difference should result in stacks looking sane again.

module: fix init_module_from_file() error handling
Vegard Nossum pointed out two different problems with the error handling
in init_module_from_file():
(a) the idempotent loading code didn't clean up properly in some error
cases, leaving the on-stack 'struct idempotent' element still in
the hash table
(b) failure to read the module file would nonsensically update the
'invalid_kread_bytes' stat counter with the error value
The first error is quite nasty, in that it can then cause subsequent
idempotent loads of that same file to access stale stack contents of the
previous failure. The case may not happen in any normal situation
(explaining all the "Tested-by's on the original change), and requires
admin privileges, but syzkaller triggers random bad behavior as a
result:
BUG: soft lockup in sys_finit_module
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request in init_module_from_file
general protection fault in init_module_from_file
INFO: task hung in init_module_from_file
KASAN: out-of-bounds Read in init_module_from_file
KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in init_module_from_file
...
The second error is fairly benign and just leads to nonsensical stats
(and has been around since the debug stats were added).
Vegard also provided a patch for the idempotent loading issue, but I'd
rather re-organize the code and make it more legible using another level
of helper functions than add the usual "goto out" error handling.

modules: catch concurrent module loads, treat them as idempotent
This is the new-and-improved attempt at avoiding huge memory load spikes
when the user space boot sequence tries to load hundreds (or even
thousands) of redundant duplicate modules in parallel.

module/decompress: Fix error checking on zstd decompression
While implementing support for in-kernel decompression in kmod,
finit_module() was returning a very suspicious value:
finit_module(3, "", MODULE_INIT_COMPRESSED_FILE) = 18446744072717407296
It turns out the check for module_get_next_page() failing is wrong,
and hence the decompression was not really taking place. Invert
the condition to fix it.

modules-6.4-rc1
The summary of the changes for this pull requests is: * Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement * Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules * My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace. Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help* reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup. Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details on this pull request. The functional change change in this pull request is the very first patch from Song Liu which replaces the struct module_layout with a new struct module memory. The old data structure tried to put together all types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found for it. Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific dynamic debug information. Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request so to: a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit. Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching, kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is active with no clear solution in sight. b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit |

Networking changes for 6.4.
Core ---- - Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the default value allows for better BIG TCP performances. - Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers. - RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible. - Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded softirq avoidance. - Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking. - Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft]. - Optimize again the skb struct layout. - Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple subsystems. - Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts. BPF --- - Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized accesses. - Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward. - Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types. - Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap params. - Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton. - Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities. - Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc. - Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in local storage maps. - Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr tasks to be stored in BPF maps. - Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and rbtree. - Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access() which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them. - Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf. - Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations. Protocols --------- - IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value indicates the provenance of the IP address. - IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition. - Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf. - Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing resilience to nodes failures. - SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing schedulers. - MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This will allow for later better LSM interaction. - xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are not needed anymore. - WiFi: - reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode - HW timestamping support - support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy - per-link debugfs for multi-link - TC offload support for mac80211 drivers - mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support - enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support Netfilter --------- - Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed instead of being bridged. - Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP support. - The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default anymore. - Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one. This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used. - Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device.

module: add debugging auto-load duplicate module support
The finit_module() system call can in the worst case use up to more than twice of a module's size in virtual memory. Duplicate finit_module() system calls are non fatal, however they unnecessarily strain virtual memory during bootup and in the worst case can cause a system to fail to boot. This is only known to currently be an issue on systems with larger number of CPUs. To help debug this situation we need to consider the different sources for finit_module(). Requests from the kernel that rely on module auto-loading, ie, the kernel's *request_module() API, are one source of calls. Although modprobe checks to see if a module is already loaded prior to calling finit_module() there is a small race possible allowing userspace to trigger multiple modprobe calls racing against modprobe and this not seeing the module yet loaded. This adds debugging support to the kernel module auto-loader (*request_module() calls) to easily detect duplicate module requests. To aid with possible bootup failure issues incurred by this, it will converge duplicates requests to a single request. This avoids any possible strain on virtual memory during bootup which could be incurred by duplicate module autoloading requests. Folks debugging virtual memory abuse on bootup can and should enable this to see what pr_warn()s come on, to see if module auto-loading is to blame for their wores. If they see duplicates they can further debug this by enabling the module.enable_dups_trace kernel parameter or by enabling CONFIG_MODULE_DEBUG_AUTOLOAD_DUPS_TRACE. Current evidence seems to point to only a few duplicates for module auto-loading. And so the source for other duplicates creating heavy virtual memory pressure due to larger number of CPUs should becoming from another place (likely udev).

module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready
The finit_module() system call can create unnecessary virtual memory pressure for duplicate modules. This is because load_module() can in the worse case allocate more than twice the size of a module in virtual memory. This saves at least a full size of the module in wasted vmalloc space memory by trying to avoid duplicates as soon as we can validate the module name in the read module structure. This can only be an issue if a system is getting hammered with userspace loading modules. There are two ways to load modules typically on systems, one is the kernel moduile auto-loading (*request_module*() calls in-kernel) and the other is things like udev. The auto-loading is in-kernel, but that pings back to userspace to just call modprobe. We already have a way to restrict the amount of concurrent kernel auto-loads in a given time, however that still allows multiple requests for the same module to go through and force two threads in userspace racing to call modprobe for the same exact module. Even though libkmod which both modprobe and udev does check if a module is already loaded prior calling finit_module() races are still possible and this is clearly evident today when you have multiple CPUs. To avoid memory pressure for such stupid cases put a stop gap for them. The *earliest* we can detect duplicates from the modules side of things is once we have blessed the module name, sadly after the first vmalloc allocation. We can check for the module being present *before* a secondary vmalloc() allocation. There is a linear relationship between wasted virtual memory bytes and the number of CPU counts. The reason is that udev ends up racing to call tons of the same modules for each of the CPUs. We can see the different linear relationships between wasted virtual memory and CPU count during after boot in the following graph: +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 14GB |-+ + + + + *+ +-| | **** | | *** | | ** | 12GB |-+ ** +-| | ** | | ** | | ** | | ** | 10GB |-+ ** +-| | ** | | ** | | ** | 8GB |-+ ** +-| waste | ** ### | | ** #### | | ** ####### | 6GB |-+ **** #### +-| | * #### | | * #### | | ***** #### | 4GB |-+ ** #### +-| | ** #### | | ** #### | | ** #### | 2GB |-+ ** ##### +-| | * #### | | * #### Before ******* | | **## + + + + After ####### | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 CPUs count On the y-axis we can see gigabytes of wasted virtual memory during boot due to duplicate module requests which just end up failing. Trying to infer the slope this ends up being about ~463 MiB per CPU lost prior to this patch. After this patch we only loose about ~230 MiB per CPU, for a total savings of about ~233 MiB per CPU. This is all *just on bootup*! On a 8vcpu 8 GiB RAM system using kdevops and testing against selftests kmod.sh -t 0008 I see a saving in the *highest* side of memory consumption of up to ~ 84 MiB with the Linux kernel selftests kmod test 0008. With the new stress-ng module test I see a 145 MiB difference in max memory consumption with 100 ops. The stress-ng module ops tests can be pretty pathalogical -- it is not realistic, however it was used to finally successfully reproduce issues which are only reported to happen on system with over 400 CPUs [0] by just usign 100 ops on a 8vcpu 8 GiB RAM system. Running out of virtual memory space is no surprise given the above graph, since at least on x86_64 we're capped at 128 MiB, eventually we'd hit a series of errors and once can use the above graph to guestimate when. This of course will vary depending on the features you have enabled. So for instance, enabling KASAN seems to make this much worse. The results with kmod and stress-ng can be observed and visualized below. The time it takes to run the test is also not affected. The kmod tests 0008: The gnuplot is set to a range from 400000 KiB (390 Mib) - 580000 (566 Mib) given the tests peak around that range. cat kmod.plot set term dumb set output fileout set yrange [400000:580000] plot filein with linespoints title "Memory usage (KiB)" Before: root@kmod ~ # /data/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008 root@kmod ~ # free -k -s 1 -c 40 | grep Mem | awk '{print $3}' > log-0008-before.txt ^C root@kmod ~ # sort -n -r log-0008-before.txt | head -1 528732 So ~516.33 MiB After: root@kmod ~ # /data/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008 root@kmod ~ # free -k -s 1 -c 40 | grep Mem | awk '{print $3}' > log-0008-after.txt ^C root@kmod ~ # sort -n -r log-0008-after.txt | head -1 442516 So ~432.14 MiB That's about 84 ~MiB in savings in the worst case.

module: add debug stats to help identify memory pressure
Loading modules with finit_module() can end up using vmalloc(), vmap() and vmalloc() again, for a total of up to 3 separate allocations in the worst case for a single module. We always kernel_read*() the module, that's a vmalloc(). Then vmap() is used for the module decompression, and if so the last read buffer is freed as we use the now decompressed module buffer to stuff data into our copy module. The last allocation is specific to each architectures but pretty much that's generally a series of vmalloc() calls or a variation of vmalloc to handle ELF sections with special permissions. Evaluation with new stress-ng module support [1] with just 100 ops is proving that you can end up using GiBs of data easily even with all care we have in the kernel and userspace today in trying to not load modules which are already loaded. 100 ops seems to resemble the sort of pressure a system with about 400 CPUs can create on module loading. Although issues relating to duplicate module requests due to each CPU inucurring a new module reuest is silly and some of these are being fixed, we currently lack proper tooling to help diagnose easily what happened, when it happened and who likely is to blame -- userspace or kernel module autoloading.

module: extract patient module check into helper
The patient module check inside add_unformed_module() is large enough as we need it. It is a bit hard to read too, so just move it to a helper and do the inverse checks first to help shift the code and make it easier to read. The new helper then is module_patient_check_exists(). To make this work we need to mvoe the finished_loading() up, we do that without making any functional changes to that routine.

modules/kmod: replace implementation with a semaphore
Simplify the concurrency delimiter we use for kmod with the semaphore. I had used the kmod strategy to try to implement a similar concurrency delimiter for the kernel_read*() calls from the finit_module() path so to reduce vmalloc() memory pressure. That effort didn't provide yet conclusive results, but one thing that became clear is we can use the suggested alternative solution with semaphores which Linus hinted at instead of using the atomic / wait strategy. I've stress tested this with kmod test 0008: time /data/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008 And I get only a *slight* delay. That delay however is small, a few seconds for a full test loop run that runs 150 times, for about ~30-40 seconds. The small delay is worth the simplfication IMHO.

module: add sanity check for ELF module section
The ELF ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" section is special, it is what we use to construct the struct module __this_module, which THIS_MODULE points to. When userspace loads a module we always deal first with a copy of the userspace buffer, and twiddle with the userspace copy's version of the struct module. Eventually we allocate memory to do a memcpy() of that struct module, under the assumption that the module size is right. But we have no validity checks against the size or the requirements for the section. Add some validity checks for the special module section early and while at it, cache the module section index early, so we don't have to do that later. While at it, just move over the assigment of the info->mod to make the code clearer. The validity checker also adds an explicit size check to ensure the module section size matches the kernel's run time size for sizeof(struct module). This should prevent sloppy loads of modules which are built today *without* actually increasing the size of the struct module. A developer today can for example expand the size of struct module, rebuild a directoroy 'make fs/xfs/' for example and then try to insmode the driver there. That module would in effect have an incorrect size. This new size check would put a stop gap against such mistakes. This also makes the entire goal of ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" pretty clear. Before this patch verification of the goal / intent required some Indian Jones whips, torches and cleaning up big old spider webs. Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> |

kunmap_local() must be called on the kernel virtual address returned by
kmap_local_page(), differently from how we use kunmap() which instead

In module_zstd_decompress() we currently map with kmap_local_page() and

bpf: Fix attaching fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to modules
This resolves two problems with attachment of fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/lsm to functions located in modules: 1. The verifier tries to find the address to attach to in kallsyms. This is always done by searching the entire kallsyms, not respecting the module in which the function is located. Such approach causes an incorrect attachment address to be computed if the function to attach to is shadowed by a function of the same name located earlier in kallsyms. 2. If the address to attach to is located in a module, the module reference is only acquired in register_fentry. If the module is unloaded between the place where the address is found (bpf_check_attach_target in the verifier) and register_fentry, it is possible that another module is loaded to the same address which may lead to potential errors. Since the attachment must contain the BTF of the program to attach to, we extract the module from it and search for the function address in the correct module (resolving problem no. 1). Then, the module reference is taken directly in bpf_check_attach_target and stored in the bpf program (in bpf_prog_aux). The reference is only released when the program is unloaded (resolving problem no. 2).

dyndbg: use the module notifier callbacks
Bring dynamic debug in line with other subsystems by using the module notifier callbacks. This results in a net decrease in core module code. Additionally, Jim Cromie has a new dynamic debug classmap feature, which requires that jump labels be initialized prior to dynamic debug. Specifically, the new feature toggles a jump label from the existing dynamic_debug_setup() function. However, this does not currently work properly, because jump labels are initialized via the 'module_notify_list' notifier chain, which is invoked after the current call to dynamic_debug_setup(). Thus, this patch ensures that jump labels are initialized prior to dynamic debug by setting the dynamic debug notifier priority to 0, while jump labels have the higher priority of 1. Tested by Jim using his new test case, and I've verfied the correct printing via: # modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg.

module: replace module_layout with module_memory
module_layout manages different types of memory (text, data, rodata, etc.) in one allocation, which is problematic for some reasons: 1. It is hard to enable CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX. 2. It is hard to use huge pages in modules (and not break strict rwx). 3. Many archs uses module_layout for arch-specific data, but it is not obvious how these data are used (are they RO, RX, or RW?) Improve the scenario by replacing 2 (or 3) module_layout per module with up to 7 module_memory per module: MOD_TEXT, MOD_DATA, MOD_RODATA, MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT, MOD_INIT_TEXT, MOD_INIT_DATA, MOD_INIT_RODATA, and allocating them separately. This adds slightly more entries to mod_tree (from up to 3 entries per module, to up to 7 entries per module). However, this at most adds a small constant overhead to __module_address(), which is expected to be fast. Various archs use module_layout for different data. These data are put into different module_memory based on their location in module_layout. IOW, data that used to go with text is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_TEXT; data that used to go with data is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_DATA, etc. module_memory simplifies quite some of the module code. For example, ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC is a lot cleaner, as it just uses a different allocator for the data. kernel/module/strict_rwx.c is also much cleaner with module_memory.

modules-6.3-rc1
Nothing exciting at all for modules for v6.3. The biggest change is
just the change of INSTALL_MOD_DIR from "extra" to "updates" which
I found lingered for ages for no good reason while testing the CXL
mock driver [0]. The CXL mock driver has no kconfig integration and requires
building an external module... and re-building the *rest* of the production
drivers. This mock driver when loaded but not the production ones will
crash. All this crap can obviously be fixed by integrating kconfig
semantics into such test module, however that's not desirable by
the maintainer, and so sensible defaults must be used to ensure a
default "make modules_install" will suffice for most distros which
do not have a file like /etc/depmod.d/dist.conf with something like
`search updates extra built-in`. Since most distros rely on kmod and
since its inception the "updates" directory is always in the search
path it makes more sense to use that than the "extra" which only
*some* RH based systems rely on. All this stuff has been on linux-next
for a while.
For v6.4 I already have queued some initial work by Song Liu which gets
us slowly going to a place where we *may* see a generic allocator for
huge pages for module text to avoid direct map fragmentation *and*
reduce iTLB pressure. That work is in its initial stages, no allocator
work is done yet. This is all just prep work. Fortunately Thomas Gleixner
has helped convince Song that modules *need* to be *requirement* if we
are going to see any special allocator touch x86. So who knows... maybe
around v6.5 we'll start seeing some *real* performance numbers of the
effect of using huge pages for something other than eBPF toys.
For v6.4 also, you may start seeing patches from Nick Alcock on different
trees and modules-next which aims at extending kallsyms *eventually* to provide
clearer address to symbol lookups. The claim is that this is a *great* *feature*
tracing tools are dying to have so they can for instance disambiguate symbols as
coming from modules or from other parts of the kernel. I'm still waiting to see
proper too usage of such stuff, but *how* we lay this out is still being ironed
out. Part of the initial work I've been pushing for is to help upkeep our
modules build optimizations, so being mindful about the work by Masahiro Yamada

module: Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool()
strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool(). However, the latter is more used within the kernel. In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to the other function name.

module: Don't wait for GOING modules
During a system boot, it can happen that the kernel receives a burst of requests to insert the same module but loading it eventually fails during its init call. For instance, udev can make a request to insert a frequency module for each individual CPU when another frequency module is already loaded which causes the init function of the new module to return an error.

livepatch: Improve the search performance of module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol()
Currently we traverse all symbols of all modules to find the specified function for the specified module. But in reality, we just need to find the given module and then traverse all the symbols in it. Let's add a new parameter 'const char *modname' to function module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol(), then we can compare the module names directly in this function and call hook 'fn' after matching. If 'modname' is NULL, the symbols of all modules are still traversed for compatibility with other usage cases. Phase1: mod1-->mod2..(subsequent modules do not need to be compared) | Phase2: -->f1-->f2-->f3 Assuming that there are m modules, each module has n symbols on average, then the time complexity is reduced from O(m * n) to O(m) + O(n).

module: add module_elf_check_arch for module-specific checks
The elf_check_arch() function is also used to test compatibility of usermode binaries.

Modules changes for v6.1-rc1
There's only two pathes queued up for v6.1 for modules, these have been grinding on linux-next for at least 4 weeks now: * David Disseldorp's minor enhancement for sysfs compression string * Aaron Tomlin's debugfs interface to view unloaded tainted modules But there are other changes queued up for testing for the next merge window already. One change being still discussed, and *not* yet even close to testing on linux-next, but worth mentioning to put on your radar is the generalization of the bpf prog_pack thing. The idea with that is to generalize the iTLB gains seen with using huge pages on eBPF to other text uses on the kernel (modules, ftrace, kprobes). Song Liu is doing a good job following up on that difficult task as the semantics for the special permissions are crap, and it really hasn't been easy to put all this together. The latest effort can be read on his vmalloc_exec() patch series [0]. Aaron will have a fix posted soon for the debugfs interface for unloaded modules, when that comes I'll just bounce that to you as it should be merged.

dyndbg: gather __dyndbg[] state into struct _ddebug_info
This new struct composes the linker provided (vector,len) section, and provides a place to add other __dyndbg[] state-data later: descs - the vector of descriptors in __dyndbg section. num_descs - length of the data/section. Use it, in several different ways, as follows: In lib/dynamic_debug.c: ddebug_add_module(): Alter params-list, replacing 2 args (array,index) with a struct _ddebug_info * containing them both, with room for expansion. This helps future-proof the function prototype against the looming addition of class-map info into the dyndbg-state, by providing a place to add more member fields later. NB: later add static struct _ddebug_info builtins_state declaration, not needed yet. ddebug_add_module() is called in 2 contexts: In dynamic_debug_init(), declare, init a struct _ddebug_info di auto-var to use as a cursor. Then iterate over the prdbg blocks of the builtin modules, and update the di cursor before calling _add_module for each. Its called from kernel/module/main.c:load_info() for each loaded module: In internal.h, alter struct load_info, replacing the dyndbg array,len fields with an embedded _ddebug_info containing them both; and populate its members in find_module_sections(). The 2 calling contexts differ in that _init deals with contiguous subranges of __dyndbgs[] section, packed together, while loadable modules are added one at a time. So rename ddebug_add_module() into outer/__inner fns, call __inner from _init, and provide the offset into the builtin __dyndbgs[] where the module's prdbgs reside. The cursor provides start, len of the subrange for each. The offset will be used later to pack the results of builtin __dyndbg_sites[] de-duplication, and is 0 and unneeded for loadable modules, Note: kernel/module/main.c includes <dynamic_debug.h> for struct _ddeubg_info. This might be prone to include loops, since its also included by printk.h. Nothing has broken in robot-land on this. cc: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220904214134.408619-12-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

module: kunit: Load .kunit_test_suites section when CONFIG_KUNIT=m
The new KUnit module handling has KUnit test suites listed in a
.kunit_test_suites section of each module. This should be loaded when
the module is, but at the moment this only happens if KUnit is built-in.
Also load this when KUnit is enabled as a module: it'll not be usable
unless KUnit is loaded, but such modules are likely to depend on KUnit
anyway, so it's unlikely to ever be loaded needlessly.

Modules updates for 6.0
For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor fixes effort. This is becomes much easier to do and review now due to the code split to its own directory from effort on the last kernel release. I expect to see more of this with time and as we expand on test coverage in the future. The cleanups and fixes come from usual suspects such as Christophe Leroy and Aaron Tomlin but there are also some other contributors. One particular minor fix worth mentioning is from Helge Deller, where he spotted a *forever* incorrect natural alignment on both ELF section header tables: * .altinstructions * __bug_table sections A lot of back and forth went on in trying to determine the ill effects of this misalignment being present for years and it has been determined there should be no real ill effects unless you have a buggy exception handler. Helge actually hit one of these buggy exception handlers on parisc which is how he ended up spotting this issue. When implemented correctly these paths with incorrect misalignment would just mean a performance penalty, but given that we are dealing with alternatives on modules and with the __bug_table (where info regardign BUG()/WARN() file/line information associated with it is stored) this really shouldn't be a big deal. The only other change with mentioning is the kmap() with kmap_local_page() and my only concern with that was on what is done after preemption, but the virtual addresses are restored after preemption. This is only used on module decompression. This all has sit on linux-next for a while except the kmap stuff which has been there for 3 weeks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAwFiEENnNq2KuOejlQLZofziMdCjCSiKcFAmLxL4gSHG1jZ3JvZkBr ZXJuZWwub3JnAAoJEM4jHQowkoin8AYP/iv/Oh/Zzh4UvZzkkOSzhf1qDgGhjFb0 aFIODZzpEfZ5ix5GcLapB8/QIwQgxiIRa3WkTMc0uyv+mddlbKuILFnI9A1I+TQe N4gmKeYXwWRyxLa6y7/B3lVzuLxf4DpcxfS2c3A65MkYi09XPA9oXCy7JjzsmEiZ z2Lu8lTe6hg8VarBTogHBxiEU7ybfDCnHWj7/Oe6zz8tS/R0i0ndNBu9xmaCqSh7 QC8++eqCaS+zfW0uTmnGDo1/zWLBblCZ5HAHG8bLlPHezUbekNz6G1D4CVwFyNQ8 wy1Gjy8nFWc+rwUl1CTgJ+A7wodGrMCyt5SmcNUVBOWdlSmli5vFJp61ET6UdrV+ +8owATwwIm8hbkIAI4037j7pMgrO27d130GRxFwgG9GNoqew2AM7y/9HrlmW49PE IqJA4Pm3zg26IhLIRcH7jLg3oKGuFf0nkMTDoooI5a9DlcsCXPuGd0FBw2WbR71D Px6dlVoAW0NrP2tm8YzkTKIT+aN+UId4Vdi2oFs1t8Sye/U+LCjvwrXPk13pZKdR VxfM1oVxeRwiAUq0VuIrnj7windF5Mpy2hDLHeWjzQmLcEGAtCYEGyxKTBkNTtPt gm9XBzT6Rbzi+Sc++ZoHYHe1g4T66sjYOp4N90sRRMD3FR97ZyW8eD01gwf6p1Uy aCOrA+sRHK3F =hPvl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'modules-6.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain: "For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor fixes effort.

linux-kselftest-kunit-5.20-rc1
This KUnit update for Linux 5.20-rc1 consists of several fixes and an important feature to discourage running KUnit tests on production systems.

module: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()
kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully utilized until a slot becomes available. With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts). Tasks can be preempted and, when scheduled to run again, the kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid. kmap_local_page() is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Since the use of kmap_local_page() in module_gzip_decompress() and in module_xz_decompress() is safe (i.e., it does not break the strict rules of use), it should be preferred over kmap(). Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page(). Tested on a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM with 4GB RAM, booting kernels with HIGHMEM64GB enabled. Modules compressed with XZ or GZIP decompress properly.

module: Move module's Kconfig items in kernel/module/
In init/Kconfig, the part dedicated to modules is quite large. Move it into a dedicated Kconfig in kernel/module/ MODULES_TREE_LOOKUP was outside of the 'if MODULES', but as it is only used when MODULES are set, move it in with everything else to avoid confusion. MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is left in init/Kconfig because this configuration item is not used in kernel/modules/ but in kernel/ and can be selected independently from CONFIG_MODULES. It is for instance selected from security/integrity/ima/Kconfig. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> |

kunit: unify module and builtin suite definitions
Currently, KUnit runs built-in tests and tests loaded from modules differently. For built-in tests, the kunit_test_suite{,s}() macro adds a list of suites in the .kunit_test_suites linker section. However, for kernel modules, a module_init() function is used to run the test suites. This causes problems if tests are included in a module which already defines module_init/exit_module functions, as they'll conflict with the kunit-provided ones. This change removes the kunit-defined module inits, and instead parses the kunit tests from their own section in the module. After module init, we call __kunit_test_suites_init() on the contents of that section, which prepares and runs the suite. This essentially unifies the module- and non-module kunit init formats.

module: Fix "warning: variable 'exit' set but not used"
When CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD is not selected, 'exit' is set but never used. It is not possible to replace the #ifdef CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD) because mod->exit doesn't exist when CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD is not selected. And because of the rcu_read_lock_sched() section it is not easy to regroup everything in a single #ifdef. Let's regroup partially and add missing #ifdef to completely opt out the use of 'exit' when CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD is not selected.
