memblock: introduce saner 'memblock_free_ptr()' interface

2021-09-14T20:23:22Z

The boot-time allocation interface for memblock is a mess, with 'memblock_alloc()' returning a virtual pointer, but then you are supposed to free it with 'memblock_free()' that takes a _physical_ address. Not only is that all kinds of strange and illogical, but it actually causes bugs, when people then use it like a normal allocation function, and it fails spectacularly on a NULL pointer: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210912140820.GD25450@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/ or just random memory corruption if the debug checks don't catch it: https://lore.kernel.org/all/61ab2d0c-3313-aaab-514c-e15b7aa054a0@suse.cz/ I really don't want to apply patches that treat the symptoms, when the fundamental cause is this horribly confusing interface. I started out looking at just automating a sane replacement sequence, but because of this mix or virtual and physical addresses, and because people have used the "__pa()" macro that can take either a regular kernel pointer, or just the raw "unsigned long" address, it's all quite messy. So this just introduces a new saner interface for freeing a virtual address that was allocated using 'memblock_alloc()', and that was kept as a regular kernel pointer. And then it converts a couple of users that are obvious and easy to test, including the 'xbc_nodes' case in lib/bootconfig.c that caused problems.

init/bootconfig: Reorder init parameter from bootconfig and cmdline

2021-09-08T19:10:41Z

Reorder the init parameters from bootconfig and kernel cmdline so that the kernel cmdline always be the last part of the parameters as below. " -- "[bootconfig init params][cmdline init params] This change will help us to prevent that bootconfig init params overwrite the init params which user gives in the command line.

init: move usermodehelper_enable() to populate_rootfs()

2021-09-08T18:50:27Z

Currently, usermodehelper is enabled right before PID1 starts going through the initcalls. However, any call of a usermodehelper from a pure_, core_, postcore_, arch_, subsys_ or fs_ initcall is futile, as there is no filesystem contents yet. Up until commit e7cb072eb988 ("init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously"), such calls, whether via some request_module(), a legacy uevent "/sbin/hotplug" notification or something else, would just fail silently with (presumably) -ENOENT from kernel_execve(). However, that commit introduced the wait_for_initramfs() synchronization hook which must be called from the usermodehelper exec path right before the kernel_execve, in order that request_module() et al done from *after* rootfs_initcall() time (i.e. device_ and late_ initcalls) would continue to find a populated initramfs as they used to. Any call of wait_for_initramfs() done before the unpacking has been scheduled (i.e. before rootfs_initcall time) must just return immediately [and let the caller find an empty file system] in order not to deadlock the machine. I mistakenly thought, and my limited testing confirmed, that there were no such calls, so I added a pr_warn_once() in wait_for_initramfs(). It turns out that one can indeed hit request_module() as well as kobject_uevent_env() during those early init calls, leading to a user-visible warning in the kernel log emitted consistently for certain configurations. We could just remove the pr_warn_once(), but I think it's better to postpone enabling the usermodehelper framework until there is at least some chance of finding the executable. That is also a little more efficient in that a lot of work done in umh.c will be elided. However, it does change the error seen by those early callers from -ENOENT to -EBUSY, so there is a risk of a regression if any caller care about the exact error value.
