of_device_request_module() calls of_device_get_modalias() with "len" 0,
to calculate the size of the buffer needed to store the result, but due
to integer promotion the ssize_t "len" will be compared as unsigned with
strlen(compat) and the loop will generally never break. This results in
a call to snprintf() with a negative len, which triggers below warning,
followed by a dereference of a invalid pointer:
[ 3.060067] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 51 at lib/vsprintf.c:2122 vsnprintf+0x348/0x6d8

...
Further more of_device_get_modalias() is supposed to return the number
of bytes needed to store the entire modalias, so the loop needs to
continue accumulate the total size even though the buffer is full.
Finally the function is not expected to ensure space for the NUL, nor
include it in the returned size, so only 1 should be added to the length
of "compat" in the loop (to account for the character 'C').

As of_device_get_modalias() returns the number of bytes that would have
been written to the target string, regardless of how much did fit in the
buffer, it's possible that the returned index points beyond the buffer
passed to of_device_modalias() - causing memory beyond the buffer to be
null terminated.

Since commit d5d332d3f7e8 ("devicetree: Move include prefixes from
arch to separate directory"), cross-arch DT reference works well,
but only for CPP style #include directives.
It makes as much sense to share DT between different architectures
by using DTC's /include/ directives.
So, scripts/dtc/include-prefixes should be passed to both CPP and DTC.
I refactored Makefile.lib a bit to not repeat the same path.

Having arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/dts as an include search path is not
very useful these days because some architectures such as ARM64,
MIPS have no DT in this directory. Instead, they have DT in vendor
sub-directories.
With some DT files in ARM and PowerPC fixed, we can now drop this
include search path.

This search path was added by commit b5190516b282 ("of: Move testcase
FDT data into drivers/of"). At that time, it was needed for platform
DT files to include testcase data.
It became unnecessary when commit ae9304c9d311 ("Adding selftest
testdata dynamically into live tree") introduced dynamic addition of
testcase data, but it missed to delete this search path.
Moreover, the directory drivers/of/testcase-data does not exist since
commit 19fd74879a32 ("of/unittest: Rename selftest.c to unittest.c").

Instead of the callsites choosing between of_cpu_device_node_get if the
CPUs are registered as of_node is populated by then and of_get_cpu_node
when the CPUs are not yet registered as CPU of_nodes are not yet stashed
thereby needing to parse the device tree, we can call of_get_cpu_node
in case the CPUs are not yet registered.
This will allow to use of_cpu_device_node_get anywhere hiding the
details from the caller.

This was never supported by any driver, and the DT example in the same

The "interrupt-controller" property is boolean, i.e. has no value. The DT
interrupt parsing code predates of_property_read_bool(), so it uses either
of_get_property() or of_find_property() -- the former isn't quite correct
for the boolean props (but works somehow). Use the modern boolean prop API
instead.

Unfortunately, on some models of some architectures getting a fully
seeded CRNG is extremely difficult, and so this can result in dmesg
getting spammed for a surprisingly long time. This is really bad from
a security perspective, and so architecture maintainers really need to
do what they can to get the CRNG seeded sooner after the system is
booted. However, users can't do anything actionble to address this,
and spamming the kernel messages log will only just annoy people.
For developers who want to work on improving this situation,
CONFIG_WARN_UNSEEDED_RANDOM has been renamed to
CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. By default the kernel will always
print the first use of unseeded randomness. This way, hopefully the
security obsessed will be happy that there is _some_ indication when
the kernel boots there may be a potential issue with that architecture
or subarchitecture. To see all uses of unseeded randomness,
developers can enable CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM.

Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum
possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count
parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of
the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of
__builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's
the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of
it being that large.
Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime
error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on.

If we reach the limit of modprobe_limit threads running the next
request_module() call will fail. The original reason for adding a kill
was to do away with possible issues with in old circumstances which would
create a recursive series of request_module() calls.
We can do better than just be super aggressive and reject calls once we've
reached the limit by simply making pending callers wait until the
threshold has been reduced, and then throttling them in, one by one.
This throttling enables requests over the kmod concurrent limit to be
processed once a pending request completes. Only the first item queued up
to wait is woken up. The assumption here is once a task is woken it will
have no other option to also kick the queue to check if there are more
pending tasks -- regardless of whether or not it was successful.
By throttling and processing only max kmod concurrent tasks we ensure we
avoid unexpected fatal request_module() calls, and we keep memory
consumption on module loading to a minimum.
With x86_64 qemu, with 4 cores, 4 GiB of RAM it takes the following run
time to run both tests:
time ./kmod.sh -t 0008

This adds a new stress test driver for kmod: the kernel module loader.
The new stress test driver, test_kmod, is only enabled as a module right
now. It should be possible to load this as built-in and load tests
early (refer to the force_init_test module parameter), however since a
lot of test can get a system out of memory fast we leave this disabled
for now.
Using a system with 1024 MiB of RAM can *easily* get your kernel OOM
fast with this test driver.
The test_kmod driver exposes API knobs for us to fine tune simple
request_module() and get_fs_type() calls. Since these API calls only
allow each one parameter a test driver for these is rather simple.
Other factors that can help out test driver though are the number of
calls we issue and knowing current limitations of each. This exposes
configuration as much as possible through userspace to be able to build
tests directly from userspace.
Since it allows multiple misc devices its will eventually (once we add a
knob to let us create new devices at will) also be possible to perform
more tests in parallel, provided you have enough memory.
We only enable tests we know work as of right now.

To be sure to run them as intended please unload both of the modules:
o test_module
o xfs
And ensure they are not loaded on your system prior to testing them. If
you use these paritions for your rootfs you can change the default test
driver used for get_fs_type() by exporting it into your environment. For
example of other test defaults you can override refer to kmod.sh
allow_user_defaults().
Behind the scenes this is how we fine tune at a test case prior to
hitting a trigger to run it:
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_case
echo -n "ext4" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_fs
echo -n "80" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
Finally to trigger:
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/trigger_config
The kmod.sh script uses the above constructs to build different test cases.
A bit of interpretation of the current failures follows, first two
premises:
a) When request_module() is used userspace figures out an optimized
version of module order for us. Once it finds the modules it needs, as
per depmod symbol dep map, it will finit_module() the respective
modules which are needed for the original request_module() request.
b) We have an optimization in place whereby if a kernel uses
request_module() on a module already loaded we never bother userspace
as the module already is loaded. This is all handled by kernel/kmod.c.
A few things to consider to help identify root causes of issues:
0) kmod 19 has a broken heuristic for modules being assumed to be
built-in to your kernel and will return 0 even though request_module()
failed. Upgrade to a newer version of kmod.
1) A get_fs_type() call for "xfs" will request_module() for "fs-xfs",
not for "xfs". The optimization in kernel described in b) fails to
catch if we have a lot of consecutive get_fs_type() calls. The reason
is the optimization in place does not look for aliases. This means two
consecutive get_fs_type() calls will bump kmod_concurrent, whereas
request_module() will not.
This one explanation why test case 0009 fails at least once for
get_fs_type().
2) If a module fails to load --- for whatever reason (kmod_concurrent
limit reached, file not yet present due to rootfs switch, out of
memory) we have a period of time during which module request for the
same name either with request_module() or get_fs_type() will *also*
fail to load even if the file for the module is ready.
This explains why *multiple* NULLs are possible on test 0009.
3) finit_module() consumes quite a bit of memory.
4) Filesystems typically also have more dependent modules than other
modules, its important to note though that even though a get_fs_type()
call does not incur additional kmod_concurrent bumps, since userspace
loads dependencies it finds it needs via finit_module_fd(), it *will*
take much more memory to load a module with a lot of dependencies.
Because of 3) and 4) we will easily run into out of memory failures with
certain tests. For instance test 0006 fails on qemu with 1024 MiB of RAM.
It panics a box after reaping all userspace processes and still not
having enough memory to reap.

As suggested by Jessica, I've been actively working on kmod, so might as
well reflect its maintained status.
Changes are expected to go through akpm's tree.

The arch uses a verbatim copy of the asm-generic version and does not
add any own implementations to the header, so use asm-generic/fb.h
instead of duplicating code.

fail-nth interface is only created in /proc/self/task/<current-tid>/.
This change also adds it in /proc/<pid>/.
This makes shell based tool a bit simpler.
$ bash -c "builtin echo 100 > /proc/self/fail-nth && exec ls /"

The fail-nth file is created with 0666 and the access is permitted if
and only if the task is current.
This file is owned by the currnet user. So we can create it with 0644
and allow the owner to write it. This enables to watch the status of
task->fail_nth from another processes.

The read interface for fail-nth looks a bit odd. Read from this file
returns "NYYYY..." or "YYYYY..." (this makes me surprise when cat this
file). Because there is no EOF condition. The first character
indicates current->fail_nth is zero or not, and then current->fail_nth
is reset to zero.
Just returning task->fail_nth value is more natural to understand.

The value written to fail-nth file is parsed as 0-based. Parsing as
one-based is more natural to understand and it enables to cancel the
previous setup by simply writing '0'.
This change also converts task->fail_nth from signed to unsigned int.
