+================
+Shadow Variables
+================
+
+Shadow variables are a simple way for livepatch modules to associate
+additional "shadow" data with existing data structures.  Shadow data is
+allocated separately from parent data structures, which are left
+unmodified.  The shadow variable API described in this document is used
+to allocate/add and remove/free shadow variables to/from their parents.
+
+The implementation introduces a global, in-kernel hashtable that
+associates pointers to parent objects and a numeric identifier of the
+shadow data.  The numeric identifier is a simple enumeration that may be
+used to describe shadow variable version, class or type, etc.  More
+specifically, the parent pointer serves as the hashtable key while the
+numeric id subsequently filters hashtable queries.  Multiple shadow
+variables may attach to the same parent object, but their numeric
+identifier distinguishes between them.
+
+
+1. Brief API summary
+====================
+
+(See the full API usage docbook notes in livepatch/shadow.c.)
+
+A hashtable references all shadow variables.  These references are
+stored and retrieved through a <obj, id> pair.
+
+* The klp_shadow variable data structure encapsulates both tracking
+meta-data and shadow-data:
+  - meta-data
+    - obj - pointer to parent object
+    - id - data identifier
+  - data[] - storage for shadow data
+
+It is important to note that the klp_shadow_alloc() and
+klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() calls, described below, store a *copy* of the
+data that the functions are provided.  Callers should provide whatever
+mutual exclusion is required of the shadow data.
+
+* klp_shadow_get() - retrieve a shadow variable data pointer
+  - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+
+* klp_shadow_alloc() - allocate and add a new shadow variable
+  - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+  - if exists
+    - WARN and return NULL
+  - if <obj, id> doesn't already exist
+    - allocate a new shadow variable
+    - copy data into the new shadow variable
+    - add <obj, id> to the global hashtable
+
+* klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() - get existing or alloc a new shadow variable
+  - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+  - if exists
+    - return existing shadow variable
+  - if <obj, id> doesn't already exist
+    - allocate a new shadow variable
+    - copy data into the new shadow variable
+    - add <obj, id> pair to the global hashtable
+
+* klp_shadow_free() - detach and free a <obj, id> shadow variable
+  - find and remove a <obj, id> reference from global hashtable
+    - if found, free shadow variable
+
+* klp_shadow_free_all() - detach and free all <*, id> shadow variables
+  - find and remove any <*, id> references from global hashtable
+    - if found, free shadow variable
+
+
+2. Use cases
+============
+
+(See the example shadow variable livepatch modules in samples/livepatch/
+for full working demonstrations.)
+
+For the following use-case examples, consider commit 1d147bfa6429
+("mac80211: fix AP powersave TX vs.  wakeup race"), which added a
+spinlock to net/mac80211/sta_info.h :: struct sta_info.  Each use-case
+example can be considered a stand-alone livepatch implementation of this
+fix.
+
+
+Matching parent's lifecycle
+---------------------------
+
+If parent data structures are frequently created and destroyed, it may
+be easiest to align their shadow variables lifetimes to the same
+allocation and release functions.  In this case, the parent data
+structure is typically allocated, initialized, then registered in some
+manner.  Shadow variable allocation and setup can then be considered
+part of the parent's initialization and should be completed before the
+parent "goes live" (ie, any shadow variable get-API requests are made
+for this <obj, id> pair.)
+
+For commit 1d147bfa6429, when a parent sta_info structure is allocated,
+allocate a shadow copy of the ps_lock pointer, then initialize it:
+
+#define PS_LOCK 1
+struct sta_info *sta_info_alloc(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata,
+				const u8 *addr, gfp_t gfp)
+{
+	struct sta_info *sta;
+	spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+	/* Parent structure is created */
+	sta = kzalloc(sizeof(*sta) + hw->sta_data_size, gfp);
+
+	/* Attach a corresponding shadow variable, then initialize it */
+	ps_lock = klp_shadow_alloc(sta, PS_LOCK, NULL, sizeof(*ps_lock), gfp);
+	if (!ps_lock)
+		goto shadow_fail;
+	spin_lock_init(ps_lock);
+	...
+
+When requiring a ps_lock, query the shadow variable API to retrieve one
+for a specific struct sta_info:
+
+void ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup(struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+	spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+	/* sync with ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf */
+	ps_lock = klp_shadow_get(sta, PS_LOCK);
+	if (ps_lock)
+		spin_lock(ps_lock);
+	...
+
+When the parent sta_info structure is freed, first free the shadow
+variable:
+
+void sta_info_free(struct ieee80211_local *local, struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+	klp_shadow_free(sta, PS_LOCK);
+	kfree(sta);
+	...
+
+
+In-flight parent objects
+------------------------
+
+Sometimes it may not be convenient or possible to allocate shadow
+variables alongside their parent objects.  Or a livepatch fix may
+require shadow varibles to only a subset of parent object instances.  In
+these cases, the klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() call can be used to attach
+shadow variables to parents already in-flight.
+
+For commit 1d147bfa6429, a good spot to allocate a shadow spinlock is
+inside ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup():
+
+#define PS_LOCK 1
+void ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup(struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+	DEFINE_SPINLOCK(ps_lock_fallback);
+	spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+	/* sync with ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf */
+	ps_lock = klp_shadow_get_or_alloc(sta, PS_LOCK,
+			&ps_lock_fallback, sizeof(ps_lock_fallback),
+			GFP_ATOMIC);
+	if (ps_lock)
+		spin_lock(ps_lock);
+	...
+
+This usage will create a shadow variable, only if needed, otherwise it
+will use one that was already created for this <obj, id> pair.
+
+Like the previous use-case, the shadow spinlock needs to be cleaned up.
+A shadow variable can be freed just before its parent object is freed,
+or even when the shadow variable itself is no longer required.
+
+
+Other use-cases
+---------------
+
+Shadow variables can also be used as a flag indicating that a data
+structure was allocated by new, livepatched code.  In this case, it
+doesn't matter what data value the shadow variable holds, its existence
+suggests how to handle the parent object.

+ *
+ *
+ * Purpose
+ * -------
+ *
+ * Demonstration of registering livepatch (un)patching callbacks.
+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * -----
+ *
+ * Step 1 - load the simple module
+ *
+ *   insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 2 - load the demonstration livepatch (with callbacks)
+ *
+ *   insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 3 - cleanup
+ *
+ *   echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled
+ *   rmmod livepatch_callbacks_demo
+ *   rmmod livepatch_callbacks_mod
+ *
+ * Watch dmesg output to see livepatch enablement, callback execution
+ * and patching operations for both vmlinux and module targets.
+ *
+ * NOTE: swap the insmod order of livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko and
+ *       livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko to observe what happens when a
+ *       target module is loaded after a livepatch with callbacks.
+ *
+ * NOTE: 'pre_patch_ret' is a module parameter that sets the pre-patch
+ *       callback return status.  Try setting up a non-zero status
+ *       such as -19 (-ENODEV):
+ *
+ *       # Load demo livepatch, vmlinux is patched
+ *       insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ *       # Setup next pre-patch callback to return -ENODEV
+ *       echo -19 > /sys/module/livepatch_callbacks_demo/parameters/pre_patch_ret
+ *
+ *       # Module loader refuses to load the target module
+ *       insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *       insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko: No such device
+ *
+ * NOTE: There is a second target module,
+ *       livepatch-callbacks-busymod.ko, available for experimenting
+ *       with livepatch (un)patch callbacks.  This module contains
+ *       a 'sleep_secs' parameter that parks the module on one of the
+ *       functions that the livepatch demo module wants to patch.
+ *       Modifying this value and tweaking the order of module loads can
+ *       effectively demonstrate stalled patch transitions:
+ *
+ *       # Load a target module, let it park on 'busymod_work_func' for
+ *       # thirty seconds
+ *       insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-busymod.ko sleep_secs=30
+ *
+ *       # Meanwhile load the livepatch
+ *       insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ *       # ... then load and unload another target module while the
+ *       # transition is in progress
+ *       insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *       rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *
+ *       # Finally cleanup
+ *       echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled

+ * livepatch-shadow-mod.c - Shadow variables, buggy module demo
+ *
+ * Purpose
+ * -------
+ *
+ * As a demonstration of livepatch shadow variable API, this module
+ * introduces memory leak behavior that livepatch modules
+ * livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko and livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko correct and
+ * enhance.
+ *
+ * WARNING - even though the livepatch-shadow-fix modules patch the
+ * memory leak, please load these modules at your own risk -- some
+ * amount of memory may leaked before the bug is patched.
+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * -----
+ *
+ * Step 1 - Load the buggy demonstration module:
+ *
+ *   insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-mod.ko
+ *
+ * Watch dmesg output for a few moments to see new dummy being allocated
+ * and a periodic cleanup check.  (Note: a small amount of memory is
+ * being leaked.)
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 2 - Load livepatch fix1:
+ *
+ *   insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko
+ *
+ * Continue watching dmesg and note that now livepatch_fix1_dummy_free()
+ * and livepatch_fix1_dummy_alloc() are logging messages about leaked
+ * memory and eventually leaks prevented.
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 3 - Load livepatch fix2 (on top of fix1):
+ *
+ *   insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko
+ *
+ * This module extends functionality through shadow variables, as a new
+ * "check" counter is added to the dummy structure.  Periodic dmesg
+ * messages will log these as dummies are cleaned up.
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 4 - Cleanup
+ *
+ * Unwind the demonstration by disabling the livepatch fix modules, then
+ * removing them and the demo module:
+ *
+ *   echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix2/enabled
+ *   echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix1/enabled
+ *   rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix2
+ *   rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix1
+ *   rmmod livepatch-shadow-mod
