Now that there is an API for checking loaded contents for modules
loaded without a file, call into the LSM hooks.

There are a few places in the kernel where LSMs would like to have
visibility into the contents of a kernel buffer that has been loaded or
read. While security_kernel_post_read_file() (which includes the
buffer) exists as a pairing for security_kernel_read_file(), no such
hook exists to pair with security_kernel_load_data().
Earlier proposals for just using security_kernel_post_read_file() with a
NULL file argument were rejected (i.e. "file" should always be valid for
the security_..._file hooks, but it appears at least one case was
left in the kernel during earlier refactoring. (This will be fixed in
a subsequent patch.)
Since not all cases of security_kernel_load_data() can have a single
contiguous buffer made available to the LSM hook (e.g. kexec image
segments are separately loaded), there needs to be a way for the LSM to
reason about its expectations of the hook coverage. In order to handle
this, add a "contents" argument to the "kernel_load_data" hook that
indicates if the newly added "kernel_post_load_data" hook will be called
with the full contents once loaded. That way, LSMs requiring full contents
can choose to unilaterally reject "kernel_load_data" with contents=false
(which is effectively the existing hook coverage), but when contents=true
they can allow it and later evaluate the "kernel_post_load_data" hook
once the buffer is loaded.
With this change, LSMs can gain coverage over non-file-backed data loads
(e.g. init_module(2) and firmware userspace helper), which will happen
in subsequent patches.
Additionally prepare IMA to start processing these cases.

In order to perform future tests against the cred saved during open(),
switch kallsyms_show_value() to operate on a cred, and have all current

are checking the wrong credential in their "read" contexts. These will
be fixed in the coming patches.

KLP relocations are livepatch-specific relocations which are applied to
a KLP module's text or data. They exist for two reasons:
1) Unexported symbols: replacement functions often need to access
unexported symbols (e.g. static functions), which "normal"
relocations don't allow.
2) Late module patching: this is the ability for a KLP module to
bypass normal module dependencies, such that the KLP module can be
loaded *before* a to-be-patched module. This means that
relocations which need to access symbols in the to-be-patched
module might need to be applied to the KLP module well after it has
been loaded.
Non-late-patched KLP relocations are applied from the KLP module's init
function. That usually works fine, unless the patched code wants to use
alternatives, paravirt patching, jump tables, or some other special
section which needs relocations. Then we run into ordering issues and
crashes.
In order for those special sections to work properly, the KLP
relocations should be applied *before* the special section init code
runs, such as apply_paravirt(), apply_alternatives(), or
jump_label_apply_nops().
You might think the obvious solution would be to move the KLP relocation
initialization earlier, but it's not necessarily that simple. The
problem is the above-mentioned late module patching, for which KLP
relocations can get applied well after the KLP module is loaded.
To "fix" this issue in the past, we created .klp.arch sections:
.klp.arch.{module}..altinstructions
.klp.arch.{module}..parainstructions
Those sections allow KLP late module patching code to call
apply_paravirt() and apply_alternatives() after the module-specific KLP
relocations (.klp.rela.{module}.{section}) have been applied.
But that has a lot of drawbacks, including code complexity, the need for
arch-specific code, and the (per-arch) danger that we missed some
special section -- for example the __jump_table section which is used
for jump labels.
It turns out there's a simpler and more functional approach. There are
two kinds of KLP relocation sections:
1) vmlinux-specific KLP relocation sections
.klp.rela.vmlinux.{sec}
These are relocations (applied to the KLP module) which reference
unexported vmlinux symbols.
2) module-specific KLP relocation sections
.klp.rela.{module}.{sec}:
These are relocations (applied to the KLP module) which reference
unexported or exported module symbols.
Up until now, these have been treated the same. However, they're
inherently different.
Because of late module patching, module-specific KLP relocations can be
applied very late, thus they can create the ordering headaches described
above.
But vmlinux-specific KLP relocations don't have that problem. There's
nothing to prevent them from being applied earlier. So apply them at
the same time as normal relocations, when the KLP module is being
loaded.
This means that for vmlinux-specific KLP relocations, we no longer have
any ordering issues. vmlinux-referencing jump labels, alternatives, and
paravirt patching will work automatically, without the need for the
.klp.arch hacks.
All that said, for module-specific KLP relocations, the ordering
problems still exist and we *do* still need .klp.arch. Or do we? Stay
tuned.

Various frob_* and module_{enable,disable}_* functions are defined in a
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX ifdef block which also has a nested
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX ifdef block within it. This is unecessary and
makes things hard to read. Not only that, this construction requires
redundant empty stubs for module_enable_nx(). I suspect this was
originally done for cosmetic reasons - to keep all the frob_* functions
in the same place, and all the module_{enable,disable}_* functions right
after, but as a result it made the code harder to read.
Make this more readable by unnesting the ifdef blocks and getting rid of
the redundant empty stubs.

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which

Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close
reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens
if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never
disappear simply do not need such protection.
Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such

Enable "permanent" flag for
/proc/cpuinfo
/proc/kmsg
/proc/modules
/proc/slabinfo
/proc/stat

/proc/swaps
More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module
authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons
when it is not.
This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

indicate to the linker that it can perform string deduplication (i.e.,
duplicate strings are reduced to a single copy in the string table).
This means any repeated namespace string would be merged to just one
entry in __ksymtab_strings.

improve moduleparam docs, silence rcu warnings, improve error logging)

to indicate to the linker that it can perform string deduplication
(i.e., duplicate strings are reduced to a single copy in the string
table). This means any repeated namespace string would be merged to
just one entry in __ksymtab_strings.
- Various code cleanups and small fixes (fix small memleak in error
path, improve moduleparam docs, silence rcu warnings, improve error
logging)"
* tag 'modules-for-v5.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux:
module.h: Annotate mod_kallsyms with __rcu
module: avoid setting info->name early in case we can fall back to info->mod->name
modsign: print module name along with error message
kernel/module: Fix memleak in module_add_modinfo_attrs()
export.h: reduce __ksymtab_strings string duplication by using "MS" section flags
moduleparam: fix kerneldoc
modules: lockdep: Suppress suspicious RCU usage warning
In setup_load_info(), info->name (which contains the name of the module,
mostly used for early logging purposes before the module gets set up)
gets unconditionally assigned if .modinfo is missing despite the fact
that there is an if (!info->name) check near the end of the function.
Avoid assigning a placeholder string to info->name if .modinfo doesn't
exist, so that we can fall back to info->mod->name later on.
Fixes: 5fdc7db644 ("module: setup load info before module_sig_check()")

It is useful to know which module failed signature verification, so
print the module name along with the error message.

In module_add_modinfo_attrs() if sysfs_create_file() fails
on the first iteration of the loop (so i = 0), we forget to
free the modinfo_attrs.
