Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
- Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
- Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
- My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior
to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective
debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the
functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to
have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will
want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details:
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a
new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put
together all types of supported module memory types in one data
structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a
module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This
paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way.
If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we
handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been
in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to
provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as
quite a bit of fixes have been found for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user
by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module
specific dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is
active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

The L0 symbol is generated when build module on LoongArch, ignore it in
modpost and when looking at module symbols, otherwise we can not see the
expected call trace.
Now is_arm_mapping_symbol() is not only for ARM, in order to reflect the
reality, rename is_arm_mapping_symbol() to is_mapping_symbol().
This is related with commit c17a253870 ("mksysmap: Fix the mismatch of

modpost now reads CRCs from .*.cmd files, parsing them using strtol().
This is inconsistent with its parsing of Module.symvers and with their
definition as *unsigned* 32-bit values.
strtol() clamps values to [LONG_MIN, LONG_MAX], and when building on a
32-bit system this changes all CRCs >= 0x80000000 to be 0x7fffffff.
Change extract_crcs_for_object() to use strtoul() instead.

Commit 6c730bfc89 ("modpost: handle -ffunction-sections") added
".text.*" to the OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS macro to fix certain section
mismatch warnings. Unfortunately, this makes it impossible for modpost
to warn about section mismatches with LTO, which implies
'-ffunction-sections', as all functions are put in their own
'.text.<func_name>' sections, which may still reference functions in
sections they are not supposed to, such as __init.
Fix this by moving ".text.*" into TEXT_SECTIONS, so that configurations
with '-ffunction-sections' will see warnings about mismatched sections.

Instead of converting the suffixes back-and-forth, store the .o paths

Similar to other architectures such as arm64, x86, riscv and so on, use
offsets relative to the exception table entry values rather than their
absolute addresses for both the exception location and the fixup.
However, LoongArch label difference because it will actually produce two
relocations, a pair of R_LARCH_ADD32 and R_LARCH_SUB32. Take simple code
below for example:
$ cat test_ex_table.S
.section .text
1:
nop
.section __ex_table,"a"
.balign 4
.long (1b - .)
.previous
$ loongarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -c test_ex_table.S
$ loongarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-readelf -Wr test_ex_table.o
Relocation section '.rela__ex_table' at offset 0x100 contains 2 entries:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend
0000000000000000 0000000600000032 R_LARCH_ADD32 0000000000000000 .L1^B1 + 0
0000000000000000 0000000500000037 R_LARCH_SUB32 0000000000000000 L0^A + 0
The modpost will complain the R_LARCH_SUB32 relocation, so we need to
patch modpost.c to skip this relocation for .rela__ex_table section.

Since commit 7b4537199a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link,
removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS"), module versioning is broken on
some architectures. Loading a module fails with "disagrees about
version of symbol module_layout".
On such architectures (e.g. ARCH=sparc build with sparc64_defconfig),
modpost shows a warning, like follows:
WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "_mcount" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.
Is "_mcount" prototyped in <asm/asm-prototypes.h>?
Previously, it was a harmless warning (CRC check was just skipped),
but now wrong CRCs are used for comparison because invalid CRCs are
just skipped.

Please notice __crc__mcount is missing here.
When the module subsystem looks up a CRC that comes after, it results
in reading out a wrong address. For example, when __crc__printk is
needed, the module subsystem reads 0xc53b44 instead of 0xc53b40.
All CRC entries must be output for correct index accessing. Invalid
CRCs will be unused, but are needed to keep the one-to-one mapping
between __ksymtab_* and __crc_*.
The best is to fix all modpost warnings, but several warnings are still
remaining on less popular architectures.

The section name of Rel and Rela starts with ".rel" and ".rela"
respectively (but, I do not know whether this is specification or
convention).
For example, ".rela.text" holds relocation entries applied to the
".text" section.
So, the code chops the ".rel" or ".rela" prefix to get the name of
the section to which the relocation applies.
However, I do not like to skip 4 or 5 bytes blindly because it is
potential memory overrun.
The ELF specification provides a more reliable way to do this.
- The sh_info field holds extra information, whose interpretation
depends on the section type
- If the section type is SHT_REL or SHT_RELA, the sh_info field holds
the section header index of the section to which the relocation
applies.

The section index is always positive, so the argument, secindex, should
be unsigned.
Also, inserted the array range check.
If sym->st_shndx is a special section index (between SHN_LORESERVE and
SHN_HIRESERVE), there is no corresponding section header.
For example, if a symbol specifies an absolute value, sym->st_shndx is
SHN_ABS (=0xfff1).
The current users do not cause the out-of-range access of
info->sechddrs[], but it is better to avoid such a pitfall.

The fix for the 64-bit part would be:
Elf64_Sxword --> Elf64_Sword
(the size is different between Sword and Sxword)
Note:
Elf32_Sword == Elf64_Sword == int32_t
Elf32_Sxword == Elf64_Sxword == int64_t
Anyway, let's drop unused code instead of fixing it.
