2021-03-17module: remove never implemented MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICELeon Romanovsky
MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE was added in pre-git era and never was implemented. We can safely remove it, because the kernel has grown to have many more reliable mechanisms to determine if device is supported or not.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux Pull modules updates from Jessica Yu: "Summary of modules changes for the 5.11 merge window: - Fix a race condition between systemd/udev and the module loader. The module loader was sending a uevent before the module was fully initialized (i.e., before its init function has been called). This means udev can start processing the module uevent before the module has finished initializing, and some udev rules expect that the module has initialized already upon receiving the uevent. This resulted in some systemd mount units failing if udev processes the event faster than the module can finish init. This is fixed by delaying the uevent until after the module has called its init routine. - Make the linker array sections for kernel params and module version attributes more robust by switching to use the alignment of the type in question. Namely, linker section arrays will be constructed using the alignment required by the struct (using __alignof__()) as opposed to a specific value such as sizeof(void *) or sizeof(long). This is less likely to cause breakages should the size of the type ever change (Johan Hovold) - Fix module state inconsistency by setting it back to GOING when a module fails to load and is on its way out (Miroslav Benes) - Some comment and code cleanups (Sergey Shtylyov)" * tag 'modules-for-v5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux: module: delay kobject uevent until after module init call module: drop semicolon from version macro init: use type alignment for kernel parameters params: clean up module-param macros params: use type alignment for kernel parameters params: drop redundant "unused" attributes module: simplify version-attribute handling module: drop version-attribute alignment module: fix comment style module: add more 'kernel-doc' comments module: fix up 'kernel-doc' comments module: only handle errors with the *switch* statement in module_sig_check() module: avoid *goto*s in module_sig_check() module: merge repetitive strings in module_sig_check() module: set MODULE_STATE_GOING state when a module fails to load

2020-11-25module: simplify version-attribute handlingJohan Hovold
Instead of using the array-of-pointers trick to avoid having gcc mess up the built-in module-version array stride, specify type alignment when declaring entries to prevent gcc from increasing alignment. This is essentially an alternative (one-line) fix to the problem addressed by commit b4bc842802db ("module: deal with alignment issues in built-in module versions"). gcc can increase the alignment of larger objects with static extent as an optimisation, but this can be suppressed by using the aligned attribute when declaring variables. Note that we have been relying on this behaviour for kernel parameters for 16 years and it indeed hasn't changed since the introduction of the aligned attribute in gcc-3.1.

2020-11-25module: drop version-attribute alignmentJohan Hovold
Commit 98562ad8cb03 ("module: explicitly align module_version_attribute structure") added an alignment attribute to the struct module_version_attribute type in order to fix an alignment issue on m68k where the structure is 2-byte aligned while MODULE_VERSION() forced the __modver section entries to be 4-byte aligned (sizeof(void *)). This was essentially an alternative fix to the problem addressed by b4bc842802db ("module: deal with alignment issues in built-in module versions") which used the array-of-pointer trick to prevent gcc from increasing alignment of the version attribute entries. And with the pointer indirection in place there's no need to increase the alignment of the type.

2020-11-10bpf: Load and verify kernel module BTFsAndrii Nakryiko
Add kernel module listener that will load/validate and unload module BTF. Module BTFs gets ID generated for them, which makes it possible to iterate them with existing BTF iteration API. They are given their respective module's names, which will get reported through GET_OBJ_INFO API. They are also marked as in-kernel BTFs for tooling to distinguish them from user-provided BTFs. Also, similarly to vmlinux BTF, kernel module BTFs are exposed through sysfs as /sys/kernel/btf/<module-name>. This is convenient for user-space tools to inspect module BTF contents and dump their types with existing tools: [vmuser@archvm bpf]$ ls -la /sys/kernel/btf total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 4 19:46 . drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 0 Nov 4 19:46 .. ... -r--r--r-- 1 root root 888 Nov 4 19:46 irqbypass -r--r--r-- 1 root root 100225 Nov 4 19:46 kvm -r--r--r-- 1 root root 35401 Nov 4 19:46 kvm_intel -r--r--r-- 1 root root 120 Nov 4 19:46 pcspkr -r--r--r-- 1 root root 399 Nov 4 19:46 serio_raw -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4094095 Nov 4 19:46 vmlinux Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20201110011932.3201430-5-andrii@kernel.org
2020-10-28module: use hidden visibility for weak symbol referencesArd Biesheuvel
Geert reports that commit be2881824ae9eb92 ("arm64/build: Assert for unwanted sections") results in build errors on arm64 for configurations that have CONFIG_MODULES disabled. The commit in question added ASSERT()s to the arm64 linker script to ensure that linker generated sections such as .got.plt etc are empty, but as it turns out, there are corner cases where the linker does emit content into those sections. More specifically, weak references to function symbols (which can remain unsatisfied, and can therefore not be emitted as relative references) will be emitted as GOT and PLT entries when linking the kernel in PIE mode (which is the case when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled, which is on by default). What happens is that code such as struct device *(*fn)(struct device *dev); struct device *iommu_device; fn = symbol_get(mdev_get_iommu_device); if (fn) { iommu_device = fn(dev); essentially gets converted into the following when CONFIG_MODULES is off: struct device *iommu_device; if (&mdev_get_iommu_device) { iommu_device = mdev_get_iommu_device(dev); where mdev_get_iommu_device is emitted as a weak symbol reference into the object file. The first reference is decorated with an ordinary ABS64 data relocation (which yields 0x0 if the reference remains unsatisfied). However, the indirect call is turned into a direct call covered by a R_AARCH64_CALL26 relocation, which is converted into a call via a PLT entry taking the target address from the associated GOT entry. Given that such GOT and PLT entries are unnecessary for fully linked binaries such as the kernel, let's give these weak symbol references hidden visibility, so that the linker knows that the weak reference via R_AARCH64_CALL26 can simply remain unsatisfied.

2020-01-07kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.confMasahiro Yamada
Commit bc081dd6e9f6 ("kbuild: generate modules.builtin") added infrastructure to generate modules.builtin, the list of all builtin modules. Basically, it works like this: - Kconfig generates include/config/tristate.conf, the list of tristate CONFIG options with a value in a capital letter. - scripts/Makefile.modbuiltin makes Kbuild descend into directories to collect the information of builtin modules. I am not a big fan of it because Kbuild ends up with traversing the source tree twice. I am not sure how perfectly it should work, but this approach cannot avoid false positives; even if the relevant CONFIG option is tristate, some Makefiles forces obj-m to obj-y. Some examples are: arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile: obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM:m=y) += nvram.o net/ipv6/Makefile: obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += inet6_hashtables.o net/netlabel/Makefile: obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += netlabel_calipso.o Nobody has complained about (or noticed) it, so it is probably fine to have false positives in modules.builtin. This commit simplifies the implementation. Let's exploit the fact that every module has MODULE_LICENSE(). (modpost shows a warning if MODULE_LICENSE is missing. If so, 0-day bot would already have blocked such a module.) I added MODULE_FILE to <linux/module.h>. When the code is being compiled as builtin, it will be filled with the file path of the module, and collected into modules.builtin.info. Then, scripts/link-vmlinux.sh extracts the list of builtin modules out of it. This new approach fixes the false-positives above, but adds another type of false-positives; non-modular code may have MODULE_LICENSE() by mistake. This is not a big deal, it is just the code is always orphan. We can clean it up if we like. You can see cleanup examples by: $ git log --grep='make.* explicitly non-modular' To sum up, this commits deletes lots of code, but still produces almost equivalent results. Please note it does not increase the vmlinux size at all. As you can see in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h, the .modinfo section is discarded in the link stage.

Commit b24413180f56 ("License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license") took care of a lot of files without any license information. These headers were not processed by the tool perhaps because they contain "GPL" in the code.

In addition are a couple of bug fixes and code cleanup to use struct_size(). In addition to the PE/COFF and IMA xattr signatures, the kexec kernel image may be signed with an appended signature, using the same scripts/sign-file tool that is used to sign kernel modules. Similarly, the initramfs may contain an appended signature. This contained a lot of refactoring of the existing appended signature verification code, so that IMA could retain the existing framework of calculating the file hash once, storing it in the IMA measurement list and extending the TPM, verifying the file's integrity based on a file hash or signature (eg. xattrs), and adding an audit record containing the file hash, all based on policy. (The IMA support for appended signatures patch set was posted and reviewed 11 times.) The support for appended signature paves the way for adding other signature verification methods, such as fs-verity, based on a single system-wide policy.

It's an unusual configuration, and was apparently never tested, and not caught in linux-next because of a combination of travels and it making it into the tree too late.

2019-09-10module: add support for symbol namespaces.Matthias Maennich
The EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL() macros can be used to export a symbol to a specific namespace. There are no _GPL_FUTURE and _UNUSED variants because these are currently unused, and I'm not sure they are necessary. I didn't add EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for ASM exports; this patch sets the namespace of ASM exports to NULL by default. In case of relative references, it will be relocatable to NULL. If there's a need, this should be pretty easy to add. A module that wants to use a symbol exported to a namespace must add a MODULE_IMPORT_NS() statement to their module code; otherwise, modpost will complain when building the module, and the kernel module loader will emit an error and fail when loading the module. MODULE_IMPORT_NS() adds a modinfo tag 'import_ns' to the module. That tag can be observed by the modinfo command, modpost and kernel/module.c at the time of loading the module. The ELF symbols are renamed to include the namespace with an asm label; for example, symbol 'usb_stor_suspend' in namespace USB_STORAGE becomes 'usb_stor_suspend.USB_STORAGE'. This allows modpost to do namespace checking, without having to go through all the effort of parsing ELF and relocation records just to get to the struct kernel_symbols. On x86_64 I saw no difference in binary size (compression), but at runtime this will require a word of memory per export to hold the namespace. An alternative could be to store namespaced symbols in their own section and use a separate 'struct namespaced_kernel_symbol' for that section, at the cost of making the module loader more complex.

2019-05-28srcu: Allocate per-CPU data for DEFINE_SRCU() in modulesPaul E. McKenney
Adding DEFINE_SRCU() or DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() to a loadable module requires that the size of the reserved region be increased, which is not something we want to be doing all that often. One approach would be to require that loadable modules define an srcu_struct and invoke init_srcu_struct() from their module_init function and cleanup_srcu_struct() from their module_exit function. However, this is more than a bit user unfriendly. This commit therefore creates an ___srcu_struct_ptrs linker section, and pointers to srcu_struct structures created by DEFINE_SRCU() and DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() within a module are placed into that module's ___srcu_struct_ptrs section. The required init_srcu_struct() and cleanup_srcu_struct() functions are then automatically invoked as needed when that module is loaded and unloaded, thus allowing modules to continue to use DEFINE_SRCU() and DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() while avoiding the need to increase the size of the reserved region. Many of the algorithms and some of the code was cheerfully cherry-picked from other code making use of linker sections, perhaps most notably from tracepoints. All bugs are nevertheless the sole property of the author.

2019-05-07moduleparam: Save information about built-in modules in separate fileAlexey Gladkov
Problem: When a kernel module is compiled as a separate module, some important information about the kernel module is available via .modinfo section of the module. In contrast, when the kernel module is compiled into the kernel, that information is not available. Information about built-in modules is necessary in the following cases: 1. When it is necessary to find out what additional parameters can be passed to the kernel at boot time. 2. When you need to know which module names and their aliases are in the kernel. This is very useful for creating an initrd image. Proposal: The proposed patch does not remove .modinfo section with module information from the vmlinux at the build time and saves it into a separate file after kernel linking. So, the kernel does not increase in size and no additional information remains in it. Information is stored in the same format as in the separate modules (null-terminated string array). Because the .modinfo section is already exported with a separate modules, we are not creating a new API. It can be easily read in the userspace: $ tr '\0' '\n' < modules.builtin.modinfo ext4.softdep=pre: crc32c ext4.license=GPL ext4.description=Fourth Extended Filesystem ext4.author=Remy Card, Stephen Tweedie, Andrew Morton, Andreas Dilger, Theodore Ts'o and others ext4.alias=fs-ext4 ext4.alias=ext3 ext4.alias=fs-ext3 ext4.alias=ext2 ext4.alias=fs-ext2 md_mod.alias=block-major-9-* md_mod.alias=md md_mod.description=MD RAID framework md_mod.license=GPL md_mod.parmtype=create_on_open:bool md_mod.parmtype=start_dirty_degraded:int ...

When a module is loaded, its symbols' Elf_Sym information is stored in a symtab. Further, type information is also captured. Since Elf_Sym has no type field, historically the st_info field has been hijacked for storing type: st_info was overwritten. commit 5439c985c5a83a8419f762115afdf560ab72a452 ("module: Overwrite st_size instead of st_info") changes that practice, as its one-liner indicates. Unfortunately, this change overwrites symbol size, information that a tool like DTrace expects to find. Allocate a typetab array to store type information so that no Elf_Sym field needs to be overwritten.

2019-03-20vfs: Implement logging through fs_contextDavid Howells
Implement the ability for filesystems to log error, warning and informational messages through the fs_context. These can be extracted by userspace by reading from an fd created by fsopen(). Error messages are prefixed with "e ", warnings with "w " and informational messages with "i ". Inside the kernel, formatted messages are malloc'd but unformatted messages are not copied if they're either in the core .rodata section or in the .rodata section of the filesystem module pinned by fs_context::fs_type. The messages are only good till the fs_type is released. Note that the logging object is shared between duplicated fs_context structures. This is so that such as NFS which do a mount within a mount can get at least some of the errors from the inner mount. Five logging functions are provided for this: (1) void logfc(struct fs_context *fc, const char *fmt, ...); This logs a message into the context. If the buffer is full, the earliest message is discarded. (2) void errorf(fc, fmt, ...); This wraps logfc() to log an error. (3) void invalf(fc, fmt, ...); This wraps errorf() and returns -EINVAL for convenience. (4) void warnf(fc, fmt, ...); This wraps logfc() to log a warning. (5) void infof(fc, fmt, ...); This wraps logfc() to log an informational message. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2019-02-15include/linux/module.h: copy __init/__exit attrs to init/cleanup_moduleMiguel Ojeda
The upcoming GCC 9 release extends the -Wmissing-attributes warnings (enabled by -Wall) to C and aliases: it warns when particular function attributes are missing in the aliases but not in their target. In particular, it triggers for all the init/cleanup_module aliases in the kernel (defined by the module_init/exit macros), ending up being very noisy. These aliases point to the __init/__exit functions of a module, which are defined as __cold (among other attributes). However, the aliases themselves do not have the __cold attribute. Since the compiler behaves differently when compiling a __cold function as well as when compiling paths leading to calls to __cold functions, the warning is trying to point out the possibly-forgotten attribute in the alias. In order to keep the warning enabled, we decided to silence this case. Ideally, we would mark the aliases directly as __init/__exit. However, there are currently around 132 modules in the kernel which are missing __init/__exit in their init/cleanup functions (either because they are missing, or for other reasons, e.g. the functions being called from somewhere else); and a section mismatch is a hard error. A conservative alternative was to mark the aliases as __cold only. However, since we would like to eventually enforce __init/__exit to be always marked, we chose to use the new __copy function attribute (introduced by GCC 9 as well to deal with this). With it, we copy the attributes used by the target functions into the aliases. This way, functions that were not marked as __init/__exit won't have their aliases marked either, and therefore there won't be a section mismatch. Note that the warning would go away marking either the extern declaration, the definition, or both. However, we only mark the definition of the alias, since we do not want callers (which only see the declaration) to be compiled as if the function was __cold (and therefore the paths leading to those calls would be assumed to be unlikely).
