0fd9cc6b0c Modules updates for v5.9
Summary of modules changes for the 5.9 merge window:
 
 - Have modules that use symbols from proprietary modules inherit the
   TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE taint, in an effort to prevent GPL shim modules that
   are used to circumvent _GPL exports. These are modules that claim to be GPL
   licensed while also using symbols from proprietary modules. Such modules will
   be rejected while non-GPL modules will inherit the proprietary taint.
 
 - Module export space cleanup. Unexport symbols that are unused outside of
   module.c or otherwise used in only built-in code.

Merge tag 'kallsyms_show_value-fix-v5.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull sysfs module section fix from Kees Cook:
 "Fix sysfs module section output overflow.

  About a month after my kallsyms_show_value() refactoring landed, 0day
  noticed that there was a path through the kernfs binattr read handlers
  that did not have PAGE_SIZEd buffers, and the module "sections" read
  handler made a bad assumption about this, resulting in it stomping on
  memory when reached through small-sized splice() calls.

  I've added a set of tests to find these kinds of regressions more
  quickly in the future as well"

11990a5bd7 module: Correctly truncate sysfs sections output
The only-root-readable /sys/module/$module/sections/$section files
did not truncate their output to the available buffer size. While most
paths into the kernfs read handlers end up using PAGE_SIZE buffers,
it's possible to get there through other paths (e.g. splice, sendfile).
Actually limit the output to the "count" passed into the read function,
and report it back correctly. *sigh*

262e6ae708 modules: inherit TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE
If a TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE exports symbol, inherit the taint flag
for all modules importing these symbols, and don't allow loading
symbols from TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE modules if the module previously
imported gplonly symbols.  Add a anti-circumvention devices so people
don't accidentally get themselves into trouble this way.

b25a7c5af9 module: Do not expose section addresses to non-CAP_SYSLOG
The printing of section addresses in /sys/module/*/sections/* was not
using the correct credentials to evaluate visibility.

Before:

 # cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text
 0xffffffffc0458000
 ...
 # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
 0xffffffffc0458000

After:

 # cat /sys/module/*/sections/*.text
 0xffffffffc0458000
 ...
 # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
 0x0000000000000000
 ...

Additionally replaces the existing (safe) /proc/modules check with
file->f_cred for consistency.

160251842c kallsyms: Refactor kallsyms_show_value() to take cred
In order to perform future tests against the cred saved during open(),
switch kallsyms_show_value() to operate on a cred, and have all current
callers pass current_cred(). This makes it very obvious where callers
are checking the wrong credential in their "read" contexts. These will
be fixed in the coming patches.

Additionally switch return value to bool, since it is always used as a
direct permission check, not a 0-on-success, negative-on-error style
function return.

ARM stores unwind information for .init.text in sections named
.ARM.extab.init.text and .ARM.exidx.init.text.  Since those aren't
currently recognized as init sections, they're allocated along with the
core section, and relocation fails if the core and the init section are
allocated from different regions and can't reach other.

  final section addresses:

7c8e2bdd5f livepatch: Apply vmlinux-specific KLP relocations early
KLP relocations are livepatch-specific relocations which are applied to
a KLP module's text or data.  They exist for two reasons:

  1) Unexported symbols: replacement functions often need to access
     unexported symbols (e.g. static functions), which "normal"
     relocations don't allow.

  2) Late module patching: this is the ability for a KLP module to
     bypass normal module dependencies, such that the KLP module can be
     loaded *before* a to-be-patched module.  This means that
     relocations which need to access symbols in the to-be-patched
     module might need to be applied to the KLP module well after it has
     been loaded.

Non-late-patched KLP relocations are applied from the KLP module's init
function.  That usually works fine, unless the patched code wants to use
alternatives, paravirt patching, jump tables, or some other special
section which needs relocations.  Then we run into ordering issues and
crashes.

In order for those special sections to work properly, the KLP
relocations should be applied *before* the special section init code
runs, such as apply_paravirt(), apply_alternatives(), or
jump_label_apply_nops().

You might think the obvious solution would be to move the KLP relocation
initialization earlier, but it's not necessarily that simple.  The
problem is the above-mentioned late module patching, for which KLP
relocations can get applied well after the KLP module is loaded.

To "fix" this issue in the past, we created .klp.arch sections:

  .klp.arch.{module}..altinstructions
  .klp.arch.{module}..parainstructions

Those sections allow KLP late module patching code to call
apply_paravirt() and apply_alternatives() after the module-specific KLP
relocations (.klp.rela.{module}.{section}) have been applied.

But that has a lot of drawbacks, including code complexity, the need for
arch-specific code, and the (per-arch) danger that we missed some
special section -- for example the __jump_table section which is used
for jump labels.

It turns out there's a simpler and more functional approach.  There are
two kinds of KLP relocation sections:

  1) vmlinux-specific KLP relocation sections

     .klp.rela.vmlinux.{sec}

     These are relocations (applied to the KLP module) which reference
     unexported vmlinux symbols.

  2) module-specific KLP relocation sections

     .klp.rela.{module}.{sec}:

     These are relocations (applied to the KLP module) which reference
     unexported or exported module symbols.

Up until now, these have been treated the same.  However, they're
inherently different.

Because of late module patching, module-specific KLP relocations can be
applied very late, thus they can create the ordering headaches described
above.

But vmlinux-specific KLP relocations don't have that problem.  There's
nothing to prevent them from being applied earlier.  So apply them at
the same time as normal relocations, when the KLP module is being
loaded.

This means that for vmlinux-specific KLP relocations, we no longer have
any ordering issues.  vmlinux-referencing jump labels, alternatives, and
paravirt patching will work automatically, without the need for the
.klp.arch hacks.

All that said, for module-specific KLP relocations, the ordering
problems still exist and we *do* still need .klp.arch.  Or do we?  Stay
tuned.

db991af02f module: break nested ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX and STRICT_MODULE_RWX #ifdefs
Various frob_* and module_{enable,disable}_* functions are defined in a
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX ifdef block which also has a nested
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX ifdef block within it. This is unecessary and
makes things hard to read. Not only that, this construction requires
redundant empty stubs for module_enable_nx(). I suspect this was
originally done for cosmetic reasons - to keep all the frob_* functions
in the same place, and all the module_{enable,disable}_* functions right
after, but as a result it made the code harder to read.

Make this more readable by unnesting the ifdef blocks and getting rid of
the redundant empty stubs.

d919b33daf proc: faster open/read/close with "permanent" files
Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which
could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"...

Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close
reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens
if module is getting removed.  Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never
disappear simply do not need such protection.

Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such
"permanent" files.

Enable "permanent" flag for

	/proc/cpuinfo
	/proc/kmsg
	/proc/modules
	/proc/slabinfo
	/proc/stat
	/proc/sysvipc/*
	/proc/swaps

More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module
authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons
when it is not.

This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times
by N threads scattered over the system".

0f74226649 kernel: module: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

ddaefe8947 Modules updates for v5.6
Summary of modules changes for the 5.6 merge window:
 
 - Add "MS" (SHF_MERGE|SHF_STRINGS) section flags to __ksymtab_strings to
   indicate to the linker that it can perform string deduplication (i.e.,
   duplicate strings are reduced to a single copy in the string table).
   This means any repeated namespace string would be merged to just one
   entry in __ksymtab_strings.
 
 - Various code cleanups and small fixes (fix small memleak in error path,
   improve moduleparam docs, silence rcu warnings, improve error logging)

708e0ada19 module: avoid setting info->name early in case we can fall back to info->mod->name
In setup_load_info(), info->name (which contains the name of the module,
mostly used for early logging purposes before the module gets set up)
gets unconditionally assigned if .modinfo is missing despite the fact
that there is an if (!info->name) check near the end of the function.
Avoid assigning a placeholder string to info->name if .modinfo doesn't
exist, so that we can fall back to info->mod->name later on.

95f1fa9e34 New tracing features:
- PERAMAENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function
    As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all
    attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live
    kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops
    is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent
    ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already
    disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from
    being registered.
 
  - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own
    trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly,
    without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been
    added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of
    ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace
    enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been
    modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing.
 
  - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in
    the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances
    which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able
    to record events without worrying about other users from writing over
    their data.
 
  - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their
    seq_buf usage.
 
  - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space
    to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers.
 
  - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and
    friends.
 
  - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16)
 
  - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the
    system call trace events.
