If kthread_is_per_cpu runs concurrently with free_kthread_struct the
kthread_struct that was just freed may be read from.
This bug was introduced by commit 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure
struct kthread is present for all kthreads"). When kthread_struct
started to be allocated for all tasks that have PF_KTHREAD set. This
in turn required the kthread_struct to be freed in kernel_execve and
violated the assumption that kthread_struct will have the same
lifetime as the task.
Looking a bit deeper this only applies to callers of kernel_execve
which is just the init process and the user mode helper processes.
These processes really don't want to be kernel threads but are for
historical reasons. Mostly that copy_thread does not know how to take
a kernel mode function to the process with for processes without
PF_KTHREAD or PF_IO_WORKER set.
Solve this by not allocating kthread_struct for the init process and
the user mode helper processes.
This is done by adding a kthread member to struct kernel_clone_args.
Setting kthread in fork_idle and kernel_thread. Adding
user_mode_thread that works like kernel_thread except it does not set
kthread. In fork only allocating the kthread_struct if .kthread is set.
I have looked at kernel/kthread.c and since commit 40966e316f
("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreads") there
have been no assumptions added that to_kthread or __to_kthread will
not return NULL.
There are a few callers of to_kthread or __to_kthread that assume a
non-NULL struct kthread pointer will be returned. These functions are
kthread_data(), kthread_parmme(), kthread_exit(), kthread(),
kthread_park(), kthread_unpark(), kthread_stop(). All of those functions
can reasonably expected to be called when it is know that a task is a
kthread so that assumption seems reasonable.

Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3.
These two patches are independent, but better-together.
The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to
change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g. the empty string, so
that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without
even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the
initramfs unpacking.
The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread,
allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_
initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of
rootfs) to finish. Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the
initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the
firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places
that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any
places I have missed.
There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is
only available as modules. But systems with a custom-made .config and
initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu
earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still
trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating
most of the first benefit).
This patch (of 2):
Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the
initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed. So instead of doing
the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in
populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread.
This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking
even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long
enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get
attention soon enough. By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker
thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the
watchdog much sooner.
Normal desktops might benefit as well. On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel,
my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M.
That takes almost two seconds:
[ 0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...
[ 1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K
Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg. With this
patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but
with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing
work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs()
finished.
Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_
and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel
module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs
unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this
completely safe.
But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one
of the official kernel interfaces (i.e. request_firmware*(),
call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might
have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs(). So there is an
escape hatch in the form of an initramfs_async= command line parameter.

Kernel threads intentionally do CLONE_FS in order to follow any changes
that 'init' does to set up the root directory (or cwd).
It is admittedly a bit odd, but it avoids the situation where 'init'
does some extensive setup to initialize the system environment, and then
we execute a usermode helper program, and it uses the original FS setup
from boot time that may be very limited and incomplete.
[ Both Al Viro and Eric Biederman point out that 'pivot_root()' will
follow the root regardless, since it fixes up other users of root (see
chroot_fs_refs() for details), but overmounting root and doing a
chroot() would not. ]
However, Vegard Nossum noticed that the CLONE_FS not only means that we
follow the root and current working directories, it also means we share
umask with whatever init changed it to. That wasn't intentional.
Just reset umask to the original default (0022) before actually starting
the usermode helper program.

To allow the kernel not to play games with set_fs to call exec
implement kernel_execve. The function kernel_execve takes pointers
into kernel memory and copies the values pointed to onto the new
userspace stack.
The calls with arguments from kernel space of do_execve are replaced
with calls to kernel_execve.
The calls do_execve and do_execveat are made static as there are now
no callers outside of exec.
The comments that mention do_execve are updated to refer to
kernel_execve or execve depending on the circumstances. In addition
to correcting the comments, this makes it easy to grep for do_execve
and verify it is not used.

I am separating the code specific to user mode drivers from the code
for ordinary user space helpers. Move setting of PF_UMH from
call_usermodehelper_exec_async which is core user mode helper code
into umh_pipe_setup which is user mode driver code.
The code is equally as easy to write in one location as the other and
the movement minimizes the impact of the user mode driver code on the
core of the user mode helper code.
Setting PF_UMH unconditionally is harmless as an action will only
happen if it is paired with an entry on umh_list.

If a UMH process created by fork_usermode_blob() fails to execute,
a pair of struct file allocated by umh_pipe_setup() will leak.
Under normal conditions, the caller (like bpfilter) needs to manage the
lifetime of the UMH and its two pipes. But when fork_usermode_blob()
fails, the caller doesn't really have a way to know what needs to be
done. It seems better to do the cleanup ourselves in this case.

is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and

always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit

As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers

A UMH process which is created by the fork_usermode_blob() such as
bpfilter needs to release members of the umh_info when process is
terminated.
But the do_exit() does not release members of the umh_info. hence module
which uses UMH needs own code to detect whether UMH process is
terminated or not.
But this implementation needs extra code for checking the status of
UMH process. it eventually makes the code more complex.
The new PF_UMH flag is added and it is used to identify UMH processes.
The exit_umh() does not release members of the umh_info.
Hence umh_info->cleanup callback should release both members of the
umh_info and the private data.

User mode helpers were spawned without a command line, and because
an empty command line is used by many tools to identify processes as
kernel threads, this could cause some issues.
Notably during killing spree on shutdown, since such helper would then
be skipped (i.e. not killed) which would result in the process remaining
alive, and thus preventing unmouting of the rootfs (as experienced with
the bpfilter umh).

Introduce helper:
int fork_usermode_blob(void *data, size_t len, struct umh_info *info);
struct umh_info {
struct file *pipe_to_umh;
struct file *pipe_from_umh;
pid_t pid;
};
that GPLed kernel modules (signed or unsigned) can use it to execute part
of its own data as swappable user mode process.
The kernel will do:
- allocate a unique file in tmpfs
- populate that file with [data, data + len] bytes
- user-mode-helper code will do_execve that file and, before the process
starts, the kernel will create two unix pipes for bidirectional
communication between kernel module and umh
- close tmpfs file, effectively deleting it
- the fork_usermode_blob will return zero on success and populate
'struct umh_info' with two unix pipes and the pid of the user process
As the first step in the development of the bpfilter project
the fork_usermode_blob() helper is introduced to allow user mode code
to be invoked from a kernel module. The idea is that user mode code plus
normal kernel module code are built as part of the kernel build
and installed as traditional kernel module into distro specified location,
such that from a distribution point of view, there is
no difference between regular kernel modules and kernel modules + umh code.
Such modules can be signed, modprobed, rmmod, etc. The use of this new helper
by a kernel module doesn't make it any special from kernel and user space
tooling point of view.
Such approach enables kernel to delegate functionality traditionally done
by the kernel modules into the user space processes (either root or !root) and
reduces security attack surface of the new code. The buggy umh code would crash
the user process, but not the kernel. Another advantage is that umh code
of the kernel module can be debugged and tested out of user space
(e.g. opening the possibility to run clang sanitizers, fuzzers or
user space test suites on the umh code).
In case of the bpfilter project such architecture allows complex control plane
to be done in the user space while bpf based data plane stays in the kernel.
Since umh can crash, can be oom-ed by the kernel, killed by the admin,
the kernel module that uses them (like bpfilter) needs to manage life
time of umh on its own via two unix pipes and the pid of umh.
The exit code of such kernel module should kill the umh it started,
so that rmmod of the kernel module will cleanup the corresponding umh.
Just like if the kernel module does kmalloc() it should kfree() it
in the exit code.

Patch series "kmod: few code cleanups to split out umh code"
The usermode helper has a provenance from the old usb code which first
required a usermode helper. Eventually this was shoved into kmod.c and
the kernel's modprobe calls was converted over eventually to share the
same code. Over time the list of usermode helpers in the kernel has grown
-- so kmod is just but one user of the API.
This series is a simple logical cleanup which acknowledges the code
evolution of the usermode helper and shoves the UMH API into its own
dedicated file. This way users of the API can later just include umh.h
instead of kmod.h.
Note despite the diff state the first patch really is just a code shove,
no functional changes are done there. I did use git format-patch -M to
generate the patch, but in the end the split was not enough for git to
consider it a rename hence the large diffstat.
I've put this through 0-day and it gives me their machine compilation
blessings with all tests as OK.
This patch (of 4):
There's a slew of usermode helper users and kmod is just one of them.
Split out the usermode helper code into its own file to keep the logic and
focus split up.
This change provides no functional changes.
