The integrity of the struct module we load is important, and although our ELF validator already checks that the module section must match struct module, add a stop-gap check before we memcpy() the final minted module. This also makes those inspecting the code what the goal is. While at it, clarify the goal behind updating the sh_addr address. The current comment is pretty misleading.

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>

It is silly to have taints spread out all over, we can just compromise and add them if the module ever hit our linked list. Our sanity checkers should just prevent crappy drivers / bogus ELF modules / etc and kconfig options should be enough to let you *not* load things you don't want.

check_modinfo() actually does two things: a) sanity checks, some of which are fatal, and so we prevent the user from completing trying to load a module b) taints the kernel The taints are pretty heavy handed because we're tainting the kernel *before* we ever even get to load the module into the modules linked list. That is, it it can fail for other reasons later as we review the module's structure. But this commit makes no functional changes, it just makes the intent clearer and splits the code up where needed to make that happen. Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org>

The work to taint the kernel due to a module should be split up eventually. To aid with this, split up the tainting on check_modinfo_livepatch(). This let's us bring more early checks together which do return a value, and makes changes easier to read later where we stuff all the work to do the taints in one single routine.

This moves check_modinfo() to early_mod_check(). This doesn't make any functional changes either, as check_modinfo() was the first call on layout_and_allocate(), so we're just moving it back one routine and at the end.

Use kunmap_local() to unmap pages locally mapped with kmap_local_page(). kunmap_local() must be called on the kernel virtual address returned by kmap_local_page(), differently from how we use kunmap() which instead expects the mapped page as its argument. In module_zstd_decompress() we currently map with kmap_local_page() and unmap with kunmap(). This breaks the code and so it should be fixed.

Currently, in dynamic_debug.h we only provide DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA() and DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BRANCH() definitions if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE is enabled. Thus, drivers such as infiniband srp (see: drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/ib_srp.c) must provide their own definitions for !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE. Thus, let's move this !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE case into dynamic_debug.h. However, the dynamic debug interfaces should really only be defined if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set or CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE is set along with DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE, (see: Documentation/admin-guide/dynamic-debug-howto.rst). Thus, the undefined case becomes: !((CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG || (CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE && DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE)). With those changes in place, we can remove the !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE case from ib_srp.c This change was prompted by a build breakeage in ib_srp.c stemming from the inclusion of dynamic_debug.h unconditionally in module.h, due to commit 7deabd67 ("dyndbg: use the module notifier callbacks"). In that case, if we have CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE=y and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n then the definitions for DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA() and DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BRANCH() are defined once in ib_srp.c and then again in the dynamic_debug.h. This had been working prior to the above referenced commit because dynamic_debug.h was only pulled into ib_srp.c conditinally via printk.h if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG was set. Also, the exported functions in lib/dynamic_debug.c itself may not have a prototype if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_CORE=y. This would trigger the -Wmissing-prototypes warning. The exported functions are behind (include/linux/dynamic_debug.h): if defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG) || \ (defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE) && defined(DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE)) Thus, by adding -DDYNAMIC_CONFIG_MODULE to the lib/Makefile we can ensure that the exported functions have a prototype in all cases, since lib/dynamic_debug.c is built whenever CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE=y.

There is quite a bit of tribal knowledge around proper use of try_module_get() and requiring *somehow* the module to still exist to use this call in a way that is safe. Document this bit of tribal knowledge. To be clear, you should only use try_module_get() *iff* you are 100% sure the module already does exist and is not on its way out. You can be sure the module still exists and is alive through: 1) Direct protection with its refcount: you know some earlier caller called __module_get() safely 2) Implied protection: there is an implied protection against module removal Having an idea of when you are sure __module_get() might be called earlier is easy to understand however the implied protection requires an example. We use sysfs an an example for implied protection without a direct module reference count bump. kernfs / sysfs uses its own internal reference counting for files being actively used, when such file are active they completely prevent the module from being removed. kernfs protects this with its kernfs_active(). Effort has been put into verifying the kernfs implied protection works by using a currently out-of-tree test_sysfs selftest test #32 [0]: ./tools/testing/selftests/sysfs/sysfs.sh -t 0032 Without kernfs / sysfs preventing module removal through its active reference count (kernfs_active()) the write would fail or worse, a crash would happen in this test and it does not. Similar safeguards are required for other users of try_module_get() *iff* they are not ensuring the above rule 1) is followed.

Jason Baron authored
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_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.

Commit aa47a7c2 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient, because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized. The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit 6f9c07be ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware. Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes. Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different cpumask "sizes": - the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids. This is used for situations where we should use the exact size. - the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations. This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions. - the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and "clear" operations more efficient. This is arbitrarily set at four words or less. As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization, cpumask_clear() will generate code like movl nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx addq $63, %rdx shrq $3, %rdx andl $-8, %edx callq memset@PLT on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords that need to be cleared. In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single movq $0,cpumask instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a single word and can just clear it all. Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code. But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler compile-time constants. In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()' which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to 'nr_cpu_ids'. Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use of them later. Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits, and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless. Please don't use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of cores. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

include/linux/compiler-intel.h had no update in the past 3 years. We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.

The migration code ends up temporarily stashing information of the wrong type in unused fields of the newly allocated destination folio. That all works fine, but gcc does complain about the pointer type mis-use: mm/migrate.c: In function ‘__migrate_folio_extract’: mm/migrate.c:1050:20: note: randstruct: casting between randomized structure pointer types (ssa): ‘struct anon_vma’ and ‘struct address_space’ 1050 | *anon_vmap = (void *)dst->mapping; | ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ and gcc is actually right to complain since it really doesn't understand that this is a very temporary special case where this is ok. This could be fixed in different ways by just obfuscating the assignment sufficiently that gcc doesn't see what is going on, but the truly "proper C" way to do this is by explicitly using a union. Using unions for type conversions like this is normally hugely ugly and syntactically nasty, but this really is one of the few cases where we want to make it clear that we're not doing type conversion, we're really re-using the value bit-for-bit just using another type. IOW, this should not become a common pattern, but in this one case using that odd union is probably the best way to document to the compiler what is conceptually going on here. [ Side note: there are valid cases where we convert pointers to other pointer types, notably the whole "folio vs page" situation, where the types actually have fundamental commonalities. The fact that the gcc note is limited to just randomized structures means that we don't see equivalent warnings for those cases, but it migth also mean that we miss other cases where we do play these kinds of dodgy games, and this kind of explicit conversion might be a good idea. ] I verified that at least for an allmodconfig build on x86-64, this generates the exact same code, apart from line numbers and assembler comment changes.
