Subject: [POC 02/23] livepatch: Split livepatch modules per livepatched object
Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2020 16:03:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200117150323.21801-3-pmladek@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200117150323.21801-1-pmladek@suse.com>

One livepatch module allows to fix vmlinux and any number of modules
while providing some guarantees defined by the consistency model.

The patched modules can be loaded at any time: before, during,
or after the livepatch module gets loaded. They can even get
removed and loaded again. This variety of scenarios bring some
troubles. For example, some livepatch symbols could be relocated
only after the related module gets loaded. These changes need
to get cleared when the module gets unloaded so that it can
get eventually loaded again.

As a result some functionality needs to be duplicated by
the livepatching code. Some elf sections need to be preserved
even when they normally can be removed during the module load.
Architecture specific code is involved which makes harder
adding support for new architectures and the maintainace.

The solution is to split the livepatch module per livepatched
object (vmlinux or module). Then both livepatch module and
the livepatched modules could get loaded and removed at the
same time.

This require many changes in the livepatch subsystem, module
loader, sample livepatches and livepatches needed for selftests.

The bad news is that bisection will not work by definition.
The good news is that it allows to do the changes in smaller
steps.

The first step allows to split the existing sample and testing
modules so that they can be later user. It is done by
the following changes:

1. struct klp_patch:

  + Add "patch_name" and "obj_names" to match all the related
    livepatch modules.

  + Replace "objs" array with a pointer to a single struct object.

  + move "mod" to struct object.

2. struct klp_object:

  + Add "patch_name" to match all the related livepatch modules.

  + "mod" points to the livepatch module instead of the livepatched
    one. The pointer to the livepatched module was used only to
    detect whether it was loaded. It will be always loaded
    with related livepatch module now.

3. klp_find_object_module() and klp_is_object_loaded() are no longer
   needed. Livepatch module is loaded only when the related livepatched
   module is loaded.

4. Add klp_add_object() function that will need to initialize
   struct object, link it into the related struct klp_patch,
   and patch the functions. It will get implemented later.

The livepatches for modules are put into separate source files
that define only struct klp_object() and call the new klp_add_object()
in the init() callback. The name of the module follows the pattern:

  <patch_name>__<object_name>

+ * Adds functionality to livepatch-shadow-mod's in-flight data
