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
on this pull request.
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&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
8b41fc4454 ("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.

Since commit 8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.
So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.

Callback .read_post_process() is designed to modify raw cell content
before providing it to the consumer. So far we were dealing with
modifications that didn't affect cell size (length). In some cases
however cell content needs to be reformatted and resized.
It's required e.g. to provide properly formatted MAC address in case
it's stored in a non-binary format (e.g. using ASCII).
There were few discussions how to optimally handle that. Following
possible solutions were considered:
1. Allow .read_post_process() to realloc (resize) content buffer
2. Allow .read_post_process() to adjust (decrease) just buffer length
3. Register NVMEM cells using post-read sizes
The preferred solution was the last one. The problem is that simply
adjusting "bytes" in NVMEM providers would result in core code NOT
passing whole raw data to .read_post_process() callbacks. It means
callback functions couldn't do their job without somehow manually
reading original cell content on their own.
This patch deals with that by registering NVMEM cells with both lengths:
raw content one and post read one. It allows:
1. Core code to read whole raw cell content
2. Callbacks to return content they want

It doesn't make any more sense to have a opaque pointer set up by the

When a storage device like an eeprom or an mtd device probes, it
registers an nvmem device if the nvmem subsystem has been enabled (bool
symbol). During nvmem registration, if the device is using layouts to
expose dynamic nvmem cells, the core will first try to get a reference
over the layout driver callbacks. In practice there is not relationship
that can be described between the storage driver and the nvmem
layout. So there is no way we can enforce both drivers will be built-in
or both will be modules. If the storage device driver is built-in but
the layout is built as a module, instead of badly failing with an
endless probe deferral loop, lets just make a modprobe call in case the
driver was made available in an initramfs with
of_device_node_request_module(), and offer a fully functional system to
the user.

Make nvmem_layout_get() return -EPROBE_DEFER while the expected layout
is not available. This condition cannot be triggered today as nvmem
layout drivers are initialed as part of an early init call, but soon
these drivers will be converted into modules and be initialized with a
standard priority, so the unavailability of the drivers might become a
reality that must be taken care of.
Let's anticipate this by telling the caller the layout might not yet be
available. A probe deferral is requested in this case.
Please note this does not affect any nvmem device not using layouts,
because an early check against the "nvmem-layout" container presence
will return NULL in this case.

NVMEM layouts are used to generate NVMEM cells during runtime. Think of
an EEPROM with a well-defined conent. For now, the content can be
described by a device tree or a board file. But this only works if the
offsets and lengths are static and don't change. One could also argue
that putting the layout of the EEPROM in the device tree is the wrong
place. Instead, the device tree should just have a specific compatible
string.
Right now there are two use cases:
(1) The NVMEM cell needs special processing. E.g. if it only specifies
a base MAC address offset and you need to add an offset, or it
needs to parse a MAC from ASCII format or some proprietary format.
(Post processing of cells is added in a later commit).
(2) u-boot environment parsing. The cells don't have a particular
offset but it needs parsing the content to determine the offsets
and length.

Prior to commit 5d8e6e6c10 ("nvmem: core: add an index parameter to
the cell") of_nvmem_cell_get() would return -ENOENT if the cell wasn't
found. Particularly, if of_property_match_string() returned -EINVAL,
that return code was passed as the index to of_parse_phandle(), which
then detected it as invalid and returned NULL. That led to an return
code of -ENOENT.
With the new code, the negative index will lead to an -EINVAL of
of_parse_phandle_with_optional_args() which pass straight to the
caller and break those who expect an -ENOENT.
Fix it by always returning -ENOENT.

Sometimes a cell can represend multiple values. For example, a base
ethernet address stored in the NVMEM can be expanded into multiple
discreet ones by adding an offset.
For this use case, introduce an index parameter which is then used to
distiguish between values. This parameter will then be passed to the
post process hook which can then use it to create different values
during reading.
At the moment, there is only support for the device tree path. You can
add the index to the phandle, e.g.
&net {
nvmem-cells = <&base_mac_address 2>;
nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address";
};
&nvmem_provider {
base_mac_address: base-mac-address@0 {
#nvmem-cell-cells = <1>;
reg = <0 6>;
};
};

The i.MX6 CPU frequency driver sometimes fails to register at boot time
due to nvmem_cell_read_u32() sporadically returning -ENOENT.
This happens because there is a window where __nvmem_device_get() in
of_nvmem_cell_get() is able to return the nvmem device, but as cells
have been setup, nvmem_find_cell_entry_by_node() returns NULL.
The occurs because the nvmem core registration code violates one of the
fundamental principles of kernel programming: do not publish data
structures before their setup is complete.
Fix this by making nvmem core code conform with this principle.

If dev_set_name() fails, we leak nvmem->wp_gpio as the cleanup does not
put this. While a minimal fix for this would be to add the gpiod_put()
call, we can do better if we split device_register(), and use the
tested nvmem_release() cleanup code by initialising the device early,
and putting the device.
This results in a slightly larger fix, but results in clear code.
Note: this patch depends on "nvmem: core: initialise nvmem->id early"
and "nvmem: core: remove nvmem_config wp_gpio".

Wp-gpios property can be used on NVMEM nodes and the same property can
be also used on MTD NAND nodes. In case of the wp-gpios property is
defined at NAND level node, the GPIO management is done at NAND driver
level. Write protect is disabled when the driver is probed or resumed
and is enabled when the driver is released or suspended.
When no partitions are defined in the NAND DT node, then the NAND DT node
will be passed to NVMEM framework. If wp-gpios property is defined in
this node, the GPIO resource is taken twice and the NAND controller
driver fails to probe.
It would be possible to set config->wp_gpio at MTD level before calling
nvmem_register function but NVMEM framework will toggle this GPIO on
each write when this GPIO should only be controlled at NAND level driver
to ensure that the Write Protect has not been enabled.
A way to fix this conflict is to add a new boolean flag in nvmem_config
named ignore_wp. In case ignore_wp is set, the GPIO resource will
be managed by the provider.

Some NVMEM providers have certain nvmem cells encoded, which requires
post processing before actually using it.
For example mac-address is stored in either in ascii or delimited or reverse-order.
Having a post-process callback hook to provider drivers would enable them to

In the existing design, we do not create a instance per nvmem cell consumer
but we directly refer cell from nvmem cell list that are added to provider.
However this design has some limitations when consumers want to assign name
or connection id the nvmem cell instance, ex: via "nvmem-cell-names" or
id in nvmem_cell_get(id).
Having a name associated with nvmem cell consumer instance will help
provider drivers in performing post processing of nvmem cell data if required
before data is seen by the consumers. This is pretty normal with some vendors
storing nvmem cells like mac-address in a vendor specific data layouts that
are not directly usable by the consumer drivers.
With this patch nvmem cell will be created dynamically during nvmem_cell_get
and destroyed in nvmem_cell_put, allowing consumers to associate name with
nvmem cell consumer instance.
With this patch a new struct nvmem_cell_entry replaces struct nvmem_cell
for storing nvmem cell information within the core.
This patch does not change nvmem-consumer interface based on nvmem_cell.

If a cell has 'nbits' equal to a multiple of BITS_PER_BYTE the logic
*p &= GENMASK((cell->nbits%BITS_PER_BYTE) - 1, 0);
will become undefined behavior because nbits modulo BITS_PER_BYTE is 0, and we
subtract one from that making a large number that is then shifted more than the

Until now, the of_node of the parent device is used. Some devices
provide more than just the nvmem provider. To avoid name space clashes,
add a way to allow specifying the nvmem cells in subnodes. Consider the
following example:
flash@0 {
compatible = "jedec,spi-nor";
partitions {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
partition@0 {
reg = <0x000000 0x010000>;
};
};
otp {
compatible = "user-otp";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
serial-number@0 {
reg = <0x0 0x8>;
};
};
};
There the nvmem provider might be the MTD partition or the OTP region of
the flash.
Add a new config->of_node parameter, which if set, will be used instead
of the parent's of_node.

then all the upper 32 bits of the u64 end up as also being set

Sometimes the clients of nvmem just want to get a number out of
nvmem. They don't want to think about exactly how many bytes the nvmem
cell took up. They just want the number. Let's make it easy.
In general this concept is useful because nvmem space is precious and
usually the fewest bits are allocated that will hold a given value on
a given system. However, even though small numbers might be fine on
one system that doesn't mean that logically the number couldn't be
bigger. Imagine nvmem containing a max frequency for a component. On
one system perhaps that fits in 16 bits. On another system it might
fit in 32 bits. The code reading this number doesn't care--it just
wants the number.
We'll provide two functions: nvmem_cell_read_variable_le_u32() and
nvmem_cell_read_variable_le_u64().
Comparing these to the existing functions like nvmem_cell_read_u32():
* These new functions have no problems if the value was stored in
nvmem in fewer bytes. It's OK to use these function as long as the
value stored will fit in 32-bits (or 64-bits).
* These functions avoid problems that the earlier APIs had with bit
offsets. For instance, you can't use nvmem_cell_read_u32() to read a
value has nbits=32 and bit_offset=4 because the nvmem cell must be
at least 5 bytes big to hold this value. The new API accounts for
this and works fine.
* These functions make it very explicit that they assume that the
number was stored in little endian format. The old functions made
this assumption whenever bit_offset was non-zero (see
nvmem_shift_read_buffer_in_place()) but didn't whenever the
bit_offset was zero.
NOTE: it's assumed that we don't need an 8-bit or 16-bit version of
this function. The 32-bit version of the function can be used to read
8-bit or 16-bit data.
At the moment, I'm only adding the "unsigned" versions of these
functions, but if it ends up being useful someone could add a "signed"
version that did 2's complement sign extension.
At the moment, I'm only adding the "little endian" versions of these
functions. Adding the "big endian" version would require adding "big
endian" support to nvmem_shift_read_buffer_in_place().

The nvmem cell binding applies to all eeprom child nodes matching
"^.*@[0-9a-f]+$" without taking a compatible into account.
Linux drivers, like at24, are even more extensive and assume
_all_ at24 eeprom child nodes to be nvmem cells since e888d445ac
("nvmem: resolve cells from DT at registration time").
Since df5f3b6f53 ("dt-bindings: nvmem: stm32: new property for
data access"), the additionalProperties: True means it's Ok to have
other properties as long as they don't match "^.*@[0-9a-f]+$".
The barebox bootloader extends the MTD partitions binding to
EEPROM and can fix up following device tree node:
&eeprom {
partitions {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
};
};
This is allowed binding-wise, but drivers using nvmem_register()
like at24 will fail to parse because the function expects all child
nodes to have a reg property present. This results in the whole
EEPROM driver probe failing despite the device tree being correct.
Fix this by skipping nodes lacking a reg property instead of
returning an error. This effectively makes the drivers adhere
to the binding because all nodes with a unit address must have
a reg property and vice versa.
Fixes: e888d445ac ("nvmem: resolve cells from DT at registration time").

This doesn't call of_node_put() on the error path so it leads to a

Introduce support into the nvmem core for arrays of register ranges
that should not result in actual device access. For these regions a
constant byte (repeated) is returned instead on read, and writes are
quietly ignored and returned as successful.
This is useful for instance if certain efuse regions are protected
from access by Linux because they contain secret info to another part
of the system (like an integrated modem).

Fix missing 'kfree_const(cell->name)' when call to
nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell() in several places:
* after nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell() failed during
nvmem_add_cells()
* during nvmem_device_cell_{read,write} when cell->name is
kstrdup'ed() without calling kfree_const() at the end, but
really there is no reason to do that 'dup, because the cell
instance is allocated on the stack for some short period to be
read/write without exposing it to the caller.
So the new nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell_nodup() helper is introduced
which is used to convert cell_info -> cell without name duplication as
a lighweight version of nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell().

We don't need to specify any ranges when allocating IDs so we can switch
to ida_alloc() and ida_free() instead of the ida_simple_ counterparts.
ida_simple_get(ida, 0, 0, gfp) is equivalent to
ida_alloc_range(ida, 0, UINT_MAX, gfp) which is equivalent to
ida_alloc(ida, gfp). Note: IDR will never actually allocate an ID
larger than INT_MAX.
