treewide: Use array_size() in vzalloc()
The vzalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:
vzalloc(a * b)
with:
vzalloc(array_size(a, b))
as well as handling cases of:
vzalloc(a * b * c)
with:
vzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))
This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
vzalloc(4 * 1024)
though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.
The Coccinelle script used for this was:
// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

lib/test_kmod.c: fix limit check on number of test devices created
As reported by Dan the parentheses is in the wrong place, and since
unlikely() call returns either 0 or 1 it's never less than zero. The
second issue is that signed integer overflows like "INT_MAX + 1" are
undefined behavior.
Since num_test_devs represents the number of devices, we want to stop
prior to hitting the max, and not rely on the wrap arround at all. So
just cap at num_test_devs + 1, prior to assigning a new device.

test_kmod: remove paranoid UINT_MAX check on uint range processing
The UINT_MAX comparison is not needed because "max" is already an unsigned int, and we expect developer C code max value input to have a sensible 0 - UINT_MAX range. Note that if it so happens to be UINT_MAX + 1 it would lead to an issue, but we expect the developer to know this.

test_kmod: fix bug which allows negative values on two config options
Parsing with kstrtol() enables values to be negative, and we failed to check for negative values when parsing with test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() or test_dev_config_update_uint_range(). test_dev_config_update_uint_range() has a minimum check though so an issue is not present there. test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() is only used for the number of threads to use (config_num_threads_store()), and indeed this would fail with an attempt for a large allocation. Although the issue is only present in practice with the first fix both by using kstrtoul() instead of kstrtol().

kmod: add test driver to stress test the module loader
This adds a new stress test driver for kmod: the kernel module loader. The new stress test driver, test_kmod, is only enabled as a module right now. It should be possible to load this as built-in and load tests early (refer to the force_init_test module parameter), however since a lot of test can get a system out of memory fast we leave this disabled for now. Using a system with 1024 MiB of RAM can *easily* get your kernel OOM fast with this test driver. The test_kmod driver exposes API knobs for us to fine tune simple request_module() and get_fs_type() calls. Since these API calls only allow each one parameter a test driver for these is rather simple. Other factors that can help out test driver though are the number of calls we issue and knowing current limitations of each. This exposes configuration as much as possible through userspace to be able to build tests directly from userspace. Since it allows multiple misc devices its will eventually (once we add a knob to let us create new devices at will) also be possible to perform more tests in parallel, provided you have enough memory. We only enable tests we know work as of right now.

If you use these paritions for your rootfs you can change the default test driver used for get_fs_type() by exporting it into your environment. For example of other test defaults you can override refer to kmod.sh allow_user_defaults(). Behind the scenes this is how we fine tune at a test case prior to hitting a trigger to run it: cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config echo -n "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_case echo -n "ext4" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_fs echo -n "80" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads Finally to trigger: echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/trigger_config The kmod.sh script uses the above constructs to build different test cases. A bit of interpretation of the current failures follows, first two premises: a) When request_module() is used userspace figures out an optimized version of module order for us. Once it finds the modules it needs, as per depmod symbol dep map, it will finit_module() the respective modules which are needed for the original request_module() request. b) We have an optimization in place whereby if a kernel uses request_module() on a module already loaded we never bother userspace as the module already is loaded. This is all handled by kernel/kmod.c. A few things to consider to help identify root causes of issues: 0) kmod 19 has a broken heuristic for modules being assumed to be built-in to your kernel and will return 0 even though request_module() failed. Upgrade to a newer version of kmod. 1) A get_fs_type() call for "xfs" will request_module() for "fs-xfs", not for "xfs". The optimization in kernel described in b) fails to catch if we have a lot of consecutive get_fs_type() calls. The reason is the optimization in place does not look for aliases. This means two consecutive get_fs_type() calls will bump kmod_concurrent, whereas request_module() will not. This one explanation why test case 0009 fails at least once for get_fs_type(). 2) If a module fails to load --- for whatever reason (kmod_concurrent limit reached, file not yet present due to rootfs switch, out of memory) we have a period of time during which module request for the same name either with request_module() or get_fs_type() will *also* fail to load even if the file for the module is ready. This explains why *multiple* NULLs are possible on test 0009. 3) finit_module() consumes quite a bit of memory. 4) Filesystems typically also have more dependent modules than other modules, its important to note though that even though a get_fs_type() call does not incur additional kmod_concurrent bumps, since userspace loads dependencies it finds it needs via finit_module_fd(), it *will* take much more memory to load a module with a lot of dependencies. Because of 3) and 4) we will easily run into out of memory failures with certain tests. For instance test 0006 fails on qemu with 1024 MiB of RAM. It panics a box after reaping all userspace processes and still not having enough memory to reap.
