Rusty Russell a6e6abd575 module: remove module_text_address()
Impact: Replace and remove risky (non-EXPORTed) API

module_text_address() returns a pointer to the module, which given locking
improvements in module.c, is useless except to test for NULL:

1) If the module can't go away, use __module_text_address.
2) Otherwise, just use is_module_text_address().

Dmitri Vorobiev f80d2d7725 tracing, Text Edit Lock: Fix one sparse warning in kernel/extable.c
Impact: cleanup.

The global mutex text_mutex if declared in linux/memory.h, so
this file needs to be included into kernel/extable.c, where the
same mutex is defined. This fixes the following sparse warning:

 kernel/extable.c:32:1: warning: symbol 'text_mutex' was not declared.
 Should it be static?

Ingo Molnar 505f2b970b tracing, Text Edit Lock - kprobes architecture independent support, nommu fix
Impact: build fix on SH !CONFIG_MMU

Stephen Rothwell reported this linux-next build failure on the SH
architecture:

  kernel/built-in.o: In function `disable_all_kprobes':
  kernel/kprobes.c:1382: undefined reference to `text_mutex'
  [...]

And observed:

| Introduced by commit 4460fdad85 ("tracing,
| Text Edit Lock - kprobes architecture independent support") from the
| tracing tree.  text_mutex is defined in mm/memory.c which is only built
| if CONFIG_MMU is defined, which is not true for sh allmodconfig.

Move this lock to kernel/extable.c (which is already home to various
kernel text related routines), which file is always built-in.

Ingo Molnar 4a44bac1f9 symbols, stacktrace: look up init symbols after module symbols
Impact: fix incomplete stacktraces

I noticed such weird stacktrace entries in lockdep dumps:

[    0.285956] {HARDIRQ-ON-W} state was registered at:
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bce90>] mark_irqflags+0xbe/0x125
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bf2fd>] __lock_acquire+0x674/0x82d
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bf5b2>] lock_acquire+0xfc/0x128
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff8135b636>] rt_spin_lock+0xc8/0xd0
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

The stacktrace entry is cut off after rt_spin_lock.

After much debugging i found out that stacktrace entries that
belong to init symbols dont get printed out, due to commit:

  a2da405: module: Don't report discarded init pages as kernel text.

The reason is this check added to core_kernel_text():

-       if (addr >= (unsigned long)_sinittext &&
+       if (system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING &&
+           addr >= (unsigned long)_sinittext &&
            addr <= (unsigned long)_einittext)
                return 1;

This will discard inittext symbols even though their symbol table
is still present and even though stacktraces done while the system
was booting up might still be relevant.

To not reintroduce the (not well-specified) bug addressed in that
commit, first do a module symbols lookup, then a final init-symbols
lookup.

This will work fine on architectures that have separate address
spaces for modules (such as x86) - and should not crash any other
architectures either.

Frederic Weisbecker 3861a17bcc tracing/function-graph-tracer: drop the kernel_text_address check
When the function graph tracer picks a return address, it ensures this address
is really a kernel text one by calling __kernel_text_address()

Actually this path has never been taken.Its role was more likely to debug the tracer
on the beginning of its development but this function is wasteful since it is called
for every traced function.

The fault check is already sufficient.

Frederic Weisbecker 8b96f01198 tracing/function-graph-tracer: introduce __notrace_funcgraph to filter special functions
Impact: trace more functions

When the function graph tracer is configured, three more files are not
traced to prevent only four functions to be traced. And this impacts the
normal function tracer too.

arch/x86/kernel/process_64/32.c:

I had crashes when I let this file traced. After some debugging, I saw
that the "current" task point was changed inside__swtich_to(), ie:
"write_pda(pcurrent, next_p);" inside process_64.c Since the tracer store
the original return address of the function inside current, we had
crashes. Only __switch_to() has to be excluded from tracing.

kernel/module.c and kernel/extable.c:

Because of a function used internally by the function graph tracer:
__kernel_text_address()

To let the other functions inside these files to be traced, this patch
introduces the __notrace_funcgraph function prefix which is __notrace if
function graph tracer is configured and nothing if not.

Rusty Russell a2da4052f1 module: Don't report discarded init pages as kernel text.
Current code could cause a bug in symbol_put_addr() if an arch used
kmalloc module text: we might think the symbol belongs to the core
kernel.

The downside is that this might make backtraces through (discarded)
init functions harder to read on some archs, but we already have that
issue for modules and noone has complained.

Trent Piepho 5e37661389 [PATCH] symbol_put_addr() locks kernel
Even since a previous patch:

Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules
Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000)
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe

The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel.

symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call
two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try
to acquire the same lock.  This deadlocks the kernel of course.

This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it
doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly.  Also, it
now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address().  The latter has
an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that
since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address
uses) ourselves.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
