- Use RCU instead of RCU-sched
The mix of rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_sched() and preempt_disable()
in the module code and its users has been replaced with just
rcu_read_lock().
- The rest of changes are smaller fixes and updates.
The changes have been on linux-next for at least 2 weeks, with the RCU
cleanup present for 2 months. One performance problem was reported with the
RCU change when KASAN + lockdep were enabled, but it was effectively
addressed by the already merged ee57ab5a32 ("locking/lockdep: Disable
KASAN instrumentation of lockdep.c").

In preparation of support of inline static calls on powerpc, provide
trampoline address when updating sites, so that when the destination
function is too far for a direct function call, the call site is
patched with a call to the trampoline.

Add static_call_update_early() for updating static-call targets in
very early boot.
This will be needed for support of Xen guest type specific hypercall
functions.

static_call_module_notify() triggers a WARN_ON(), when memory allocation
fails in __static_call_add_module().
That's not really justified, because the failure case must be correctly
handled by the well known call chain and the error code is passed
through to the initiating userspace application.
A memory allocation fail is not a fatal problem, but the WARN_ON() takes
the machine out when panic_on_warn is set.
Replace it with a pr_warn().

Module insertion invokes static_call_add_module() to initialize the static
calls in a module. static_call_add_module() invokes __static_call_init(),
which allocates a struct static_call_mod to either encapsulate the built-in
static call sites of the associated key into it so further modules can be
added or to append the module to the module chain.
If that allocation fails the function returns with an error code and the
module core invokes static_call_del_module() to clean up eventually added
static_call_mod entries.
This works correctly, when all keys used by the module were converted over
to a module chain before the failure. If not then static_call_del_module()
causes a #GP as it blindly assumes that key::mods points to a valid struct
static_call_mod.
The problem is that key::mods is not a individual struct member of struct
static_call_key, it's part of a union to save space:
union {
/* bit 0: 0 = mods, 1 = sites */
unsigned long type;
struct static_call_mod *mods;
struct static_call_site *sites;
};
key::sites is a pointer to the list of built-in usage sites of the static
call. The type of the pointer is differentiated by bit 0. A mods pointer
has the bit clear, the sites pointer has the bit set.
As static_call_del_module() blidly assumes that the pointer is a valid
static_call_mod type, it fails to check for this failure case and
dereferences the pointer to the list of built-in call sites, which is
obviously bogus.
Cure it by checking whether the key has a sites or a mods pointer.
If it's a sites pointer then the key is not to be touched. As the sites are
walked in the same order as in __static_call_init() the site walk can be
terminated because all subsequent sites have not been touched by the init
code due to the error exit.
If it was converted before the allocation fail, then the inner loop which
searches for a module match will find nothing.
A fail in the second allocation in __static_call_init() is harmless and
does not require special treatment. The first allocation succeeded and
converted the key to a module chain. That first entry has mod::mod == NULL
and mod::next == NULL, so the inner loop of static_call_del_module() will
neither find a module match nor a module chain. The next site in the walk
was either already converted, but can't match the module, or it will exit
the outer loop because it has a static_call_site pointer and not a
static_call_mod pointer.

When indirect calls are switched to direct calls then it has to be ensured
that the call target is not the function, but the call thunk when call
depth tracking is enabled. But static calls are available before call
thunks have been set up.
Ensure a second run through the static call patching code after call thunks
have been created. When call thunks are not enabled this has no side
effects.

System.map shows that vmlinux contains several instances of
__static_call_return0():
c0004fc0 t __static_call_return0
c0011518 t __static_call_return0
c00d8160 t __static_call_return0
arch_static_call_transform() uses the middle one to check whether we are
setting a call to __static_call_return0 or not:
c0011520 <arch_static_call_transform>:
c0011520: 3d 20 c0 01 lis r9,-16383 <== r9 = 0xc001 << 16
c0011524: 39 29 15 18 addi r9,r9,5400 <== r9 += 0x1518
c0011528: 7c 05 48 00 cmpw r5,r9 <== r9 has value 0xc0011518 here
So if static_call_update() is called with one of the other instances of
__static_call_return0(), arch_static_call_transform() won't recognise it.
In order to work properly, global single instance of __static_call_return0() is required.
