2025-01-26module: Split module_enable_rodata_ro()Christophe Leroy
module_enable_rodata_ro() is called twice, once before module init to set rodata sections readonly and once after module init to set rodata_after_init section readonly. The second time, only the rodata_after_init section needs to be set to read-only, no need to re-apply it to already set rodata. Split module_enable_rodata_ro() in two.

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.

2024-02-16module: Don't ignore errors from set_memory_XX()Christophe Leroy
set_memory_ro(), set_memory_nx(), set_memory_x() and other helpers can fail and return an error. In that case the memory might not be protected as expected and the module loading has to be aborted to avoid security issues. Check return value of all calls to set_memory_XX() and handle error if any. Add a check to not call set_memory_XX() on NULL pointers as some architectures may not like it allthough numpages is always 0 in that case. This also avoid a useless call to set_vm_flush_reset_perms().

2024-01-29module: Change module_enable_{nx/x/ro}() to more explicit namesChristophe Leroy
It's a bit puzzling to see a call to module_enable_nx() followed by a call to module_enable_x(). This is because one applies on text while the other applies on data. Change name to make that more clear. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org>
2024-01-29module: Use set_memory_rox()Christophe Leroy
A couple of architectures seem concerned about calling set_memory_ro() and set_memory_x() too frequently and have implemented a version of set_memory_rox(), see commit 60463628c9e0 ("x86/mm: Implement native set_memory_rox()") and commit 22e99fa56443 ("s390/mm: implement set_memory_rox()") Use set_memory_rox() in modules when STRICT_MODULES_RWX is set.

2023-03-09module: replace module_layout with module_memorySong Liu
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.

2022-04-05module: Add CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOCChristophe Leroy
Add CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC to allow architectures to request having modules data in vmalloc area instead of module area. This is required on powerpc book3s/32 in order to set data non executable, because it is not possible to set executability on page basis, this is done per 256 Mbytes segments. The module area has exec right, vmalloc area has noexec. This can also be useful on other powerpc/32 in order to maximize the chance of code being close enough to kernel core to avoid branch trampolines.

2022-04-05module: Introduce data_layoutChristophe Leroy
In order to allow separation of data from text, add another layout, called data_layout. For architectures requesting separation of text and data, only text will go in core_layout and data will go in data_layout. For architectures which keep text and data together, make data_layout an alias of core_layout, that way data_layout can be used for all data manipulations, regardless of whether data is in core_layout or data_layout.

2022-04-05module: Move module_enable_x() and frob_text() in strict_rwx.cChristophe Leroy
Move module_enable_x() together with module_enable_nx() and module_enable_ro(). Those three functions are going together, they are all used to set up the correct page flags on the different sections. As module_enable_x() is used independently of CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX, build strict_rwx.c all the time and use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX) when relevant.
