<title>rxrpc: Truncate UTS_RELEASE for rxrpc version</title>

UTS_RELEASE has a maximum length of 64 which can cause rxrpc_version to
exceed the 65 byte message limit.

Per the rx spec[1]: "If a server receives a packet with a type value of 13,
and the client-initiated flag set, it should respond with a 65-byte payload
containing a string that identifies the version of AFS software it is
running."

The current implementation causes a compile error when WERROR is turned on
and/or UTS_RELEASE exceeds the length of 49 (making the version string more
than 64 characters).

Fix this by generating the string during module initialisation and limiting
the UTS_RELEASE segment of the string does not exceed 49 chars.  We need to
make sure that the 64 bytes includes "linux-" at the front and " AF_RXRPC"
at the back as this may be used in pattern matching.

afs_make_call() calls rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() to begin a call (which may
get stalled in the background waiting for a connection to become
available); it then calls rxrpc_kernel_set_max_life() to set the timeouts -
but that starts the call timer so the call timer might then expire before
we get a connection assigned - leading to the following oops if the call
stalled:

	BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
	...
	CPU: 1 PID: 5111 Comm: krxrpcio/0 Not tainted 6.3.0-rc7-build3+ #701

Fix this by noting the timeouts in struct rxrpc_call when the call is
created.  The timer will be started when the first packet is transmitted.

It shouldn't be possible to trigger this directly from userspace through
AF_RXRPC as sendmsg() will return EBUSY if the call is in the
waiting-for-conn state if it dropped out of the wait due to a signal.

When sendmsg() creates an rxrpc call, it queues it to wait for a connection
and channel to be assigned and then waits before it can start shovelling
data as the encrypted DATA packet content includes a summary of the
connection parameters.

However, sendmsg() may get interrupted before a connection gets assigned
and further sendmsg() calls will fail with EBUSY until an assignment is
made.

Fix this so that the call can at least be aborted without failing on
EBUSY.  We have to be careful here as sendmsg() mustn't be allowed to start
the call timer if the call doesn't yet have a connection assigned as an
oops may follow shortly thereafter.

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&amp;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
  8b41fc4454e ("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"

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.

<title>rxrpc: Fix potential data race in rxrpc_wait_to_be_connected()</title>
<updated>2023-04-27T07:17:41+00:00</updated>

<content type='text'>
Inside the loop in rxrpc_wait_to_be_connected() it checks call-&gt;error to
see if it should exit the loop without first checking the call state.  This
is probably safe as if call-&gt;error is set, the call is dead anyway, but we
should probably wait for the call state to have been set to completion
first, lest it cause surprise on the way out.

Fix this by only accessing call-&gt;error if the call is complete.  We don't
actually need to access the error inside the loop as we'll do that after.

This caused the following report:

When converting from ASSERTCMP to WARN_ON, the tested condition must
be inverted, which was missed for this case.

This would cause an EIO error when trying to read an rxrpc token, for
instance when trying to display tokens with AuriStor's "tokens" command.

Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are
moving towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead.

Transform zero-length array into flexible-array member in struct
rxrpc_ackpacket.

Address the following warnings found with GCC-13 and
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled:
net/rxrpc/call_event.c:149:38: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of ‘uint8_t[0]’ {aka ‘unsigned char[]’} [-Warray-bounds=]

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
