arch: make execmem setup available regardless of CONFIG_MODULES

2024-05-14T07:31:44+00:00

execmem does not depend on modules, on the contrary modules use
execmem.

To make execmem available when CONFIG_MODULES=n, for instance for
kprobes, split execmem_params initialization out from
arch/*/kernel/module.c and compile it when CONFIG_EXECMEM=y

mm/execmem, arch: convert simple overrides of module_alloc to execmem

2024-05-14T07:31:43+00:00

Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address
range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space.

Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters for
address space ranges, required alignment and page protections provided
by architectures.

The architectures must fill execmem_info structure and implement
execmem_arch_setup() that returns a pointer to that structure. This way the
execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture, but rather
from a central place, namely a core_initcall() in execmem.

The execmem provides execmem_alloc() API that wraps __vmalloc_node_range()
with the parameters defined by the architectures.  If an architecture does
not implement execmem_arch_setup(), execmem_alloc() will fall back to
module_alloc().

module: replace module_layout with module_memory

2023-03-09T20:55:15+00:00

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.

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes  to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include 
in the files that include .

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include / d' $f
	done

module/ftrace: handle patchable-function-entry

2019-11-06T14:17:30+00:00

When using patchable-function-entry, the compiler will record the
callsites into a section named "__patchable_function_entries" rather
than "__mcount_loc". Let's abstract this difference behind a new
FTRACE_CALLSITE_SECTION, so that architectures don't have to handle this
explicitly (e.g. with custom module linker scripts).

As parisc currently handles this explicitly, it is fixed up accordingly,
with its custom linker script removed. Since FTRACE_CALLSITE_SECTION is
only defined when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is selected, the parisc module loading
code is updated to only use the definition in that case. When
DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not selected, modules shouldn't have this section, so
this removes some redundant work in that case.

To make sure that this is keep up-to-date for modules and the main
kernel, a comment is added to vmlinux.lds.h, with the existing ifdeffery
simplified for legibility.

I built parisc generic-{32,64}bit_defconfig with DYNAMIC_FTRACE enabled,
and verified that the section made it into the .ko files for modules.

parisc: add dynamic ftrace

2019-06-08T10:56:29+00:00

This patch implements dynamic ftrace for PA-RISC. The required mcount
call sequences can get pretty long, so instead of patching the
whole call sequence out of the functions, we are using
-fpatchable-function-entry from gcc. This puts a configurable amount of
NOPS before/at the start of the function. Taking do_sys_open() as example,
which would look like this when the call is patched out:

1036b248:       08 00 02 40     nop
1036b24c:       08 00 02 40     nop
1036b250:       08 00 02 40     nop
1036b254:       08 00 02 40     nop

1036b258 :
1036b258:       08 00 02 40     nop
1036b25c:       08 03 02 41     copy r3,r1
1036b260:       6b c2 3f d9     stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264:       08 1e 02 43     copy sp,r3
1036b268:       6f c1 01 00     stw,ma r1,80(sp)

When ftrace gets enabled for this function the kernel will patch these
NOPs to:

1036b248:       10 19 57 20     
1036b24c:       6f c1 00 80     stw,ma r1,40(sp)
1036b250:       48 21 3f d1     ldw -18(r1),r1
1036b254:       e8 20 c0 02     bv,n r0(r1)

1036b258 :
1036b258:       e8 3f 1f df     b,l,n .-c,r1
1036b25c:       08 03 02 41     copy r3,r1
1036b260:       6b c2 3f d9     stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264:       08 1e 02 43     copy sp,r3
1036b268:       6f c1 01 00     stw,ma r1,80(sp)

So the first NOP in do_sys_open() will be patched to jump backwards into
some minimal trampoline code which pushes a stackframe, saves r1 which
holds the return address, loads the address of the real ftrace function,
and branches to that location. For 64 Bit things are getting a bit more
complicated (and longer) because we must make sure that the address of
ftrace location is 8 byte aligned, and the offset passed to ldd for
fetching the address is 8 byte aligned as well.

Note that gcc has a bug which misplaces the function label, and needs a
patch to make dynamic ftrace work. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90751 for details.
