2020-08-10kbuild: trace functions in subdirectories of lib/Masahiro Yamada
ccflags-remove-$(CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER) += $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) exists here in sub-directories of lib/ to keep the behavior of commit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions"). Since that commit, not only the objects in lib/ but also the ones in the sub-directories are excluded from ftrace (although the commit description did not explicitly mention this). However, most of library functions in sub-directories are not so hot. Re-add them to ftrace. Going forward, only the objects right under lib/ will be excluded.

2020-08-10kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-yMasahiro Yamada
CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file>.o filters out flags when compiling a particular object, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object in a directory. Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily. Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles. The add/remove order works as follows: [1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally [2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the current Makefile [3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the current Makefile (New feature) [4] CFLAGS_<file> adds compiler flags per file. [5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file> removes compiler flags per file. Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all) objects in the current Makefile. For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) from all objects in the directory, then adds it back to trace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.o The same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile. Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories. In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also from all the sub-directories. The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories: arch/arm/boot/compressed/ arch/powerpc/xmon/ arch/sh/ kernel/trace/ However, lib/ has several sub-directories. To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefiles in subdirectories of lib/, except the following: lib/vdso/Makefile - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile lib/raid/test/Makefile - This is not used for the kernel build I think commit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions") excluded too much. In the next commit, I will remove ccflags-remove-y from the sub-directories of lib/.

2020-06-08selftests/livepatch: fix mem leaks in test-klp-shadow-varsYannick Cote
In some cases, when an error occurs during testing and the main test routine returns, a memory leak occurs via leaving previously registered shadow variables allocated in the kernel as well as shadow_ptr list elements. From now on, in case of error, remove all allocated shadow variables and shadow_ptr struct elements.

2020-06-08selftests/livepatch: more verification in test-klp-shadow-varsYannick Cote
This change makes the test feel more familiar with narrowing to a typical usage by operating on a number of identical structure instances and populating the same two new shadow variables symmetrically while keeping the same testing and verification criteria for the extra variables.

2020-06-08selftests/livepatch: rework test-klp-shadow-varsYannick Cote
The initial idea was to make a change to please cppcheck and remove void pointer arithmetics found a few times: portability: 'obj' is of type 'void *'. When using void pointers in calculations, the behaviour is undefined. [arithOperationsOnVoidPointer] The rest of the changes are to help make the test read as an example while continuing to verify the shadow variable code. The logic of the test is unchanged but restructured to use descriptive names.

2020-06-08selftests/livepatch: simplify test-klp-callbacks busy target testsJoe Lawrence
The test-klp-callbacks script includes a few tests which rely on kernel task timings that may not always execute as expected under system load. These may generate out of sequence kernel log messages that result in test failure. Instead of using sleep timing windows to orchestrate these tests, add a block_transition module parameter to communicate the test purpose and utilize flush_queue() to serialize the test module's task output.

2020-01-17livepatch/samples/selftest: Use klp_shadow_alloc() API correctlyPetr Mladek
The commit e91c2518a5d22a ("livepatch: Initialize shadow variables safely by a custom callback") leads to the following static checker warning: samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.c:86 livepatch_fix1_dummy_alloc() error: 'klp_shadow_alloc()' 'leak' too small (4 vs 8) It is because klp_shadow_alloc() is used a wrong way: int *leak; shadow_leak = klp_shadow_alloc(d, SV_LEAK, sizeof(leak), GFP_KERNEL, shadow_leak_ctor, leak); The code is supposed to store the "leak" pointer into the shadow variable. 3rd parameter correctly passes size of the data (size of pointer). But the 5th parameter is wrong. It should pass pointer to the data (pointer to the pointer) but it passes the pointer directly. It works because shadow_leak_ctor() handle "ctor_data" as the data instead of pointer to the data. But it is semantically wrong and confusing. The same problem is also in the module used by selftests. In this case, "pvX" variables are introduced. They represent the data stored in the shadow variables.

2020-01-17livepatch/selftest: Clean up shadow variable names and typePetr Mladek
The shadow variable selftest is quite tricky. Especially it is problematic to understand what values are stored, returned, and printed. Make it easier to understand by using "int *var, **sv" variables consistently everywhere instead of the generic "void *", "ret", and "ctor_data".

2019-02-06livepatch: Proper error handling in the shadow variables selftestPetr Mladek
Add proper error handling when allocating or getting shadow variables in the selftest. It prevents an invalid pointer access in some situations. It shows the good programming practice in the others. The error codes are just the best guess and specific for this particular test. In general, klp_shadow_alloc() returns NULL also when the given shadow variable has already been allocated. In addition, both klp_shadow_alloc() and klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() might fail from other reasons when the constructor fails. Note, that the error code is not really important even in the real life. The use of shadow variables should be transparent for the original livepatched code.
