2024-11-07module: prepare to handle ROX allocations for textMike Rapoport (Microsoft)
In order to support ROX allocations for module text, it is necessary to handle modifications to the code, such as relocations and alternatives patching, without write access to that memory. One option is to use text patching, but this would make module loading extremely slow and will expose executable code that is not finally formed. A better way is to have memory allocated with ROX permissions contain invalid instructions and keep a writable, but not executable copy of the module text. The relocations and alternative patches would be done on the writable copy using the addresses of the ROX memory. Once the module is completely ready, the updated text will be copied to ROX memory using text patching in one go and the writable copy will be freed. Add support for that to module initialization code and provide necessary interfaces in execmem.

2024-09-13module: Refine kmemleak scanned areasVincent Donnefort
commit ac3b43283923 ("module: replace module_layout with module_memory") introduced a set of memory regions for the module layout sharing the same attributes. However, it didn't update the kmemleak scanned areas which intended to limit kmemleak scan to sections containing writable data. This means sections such as .text and .rodata are scanned by kmemleak. Refine the scanned areas for modules by limiting it to MOD_TEXT and MOD_INIT_TEXT mod_mem regions.
