+======================
+(Un)patching Callbacks
+======================
+
+Livepatch (un)patch-callbacks provide a mechanism for livepatch modules
+to execute callback functions when a kernel object is (un)patched. They
+can be considered a "power feature" that extends livepatching abilities
+to include:
+
+ - Safe updates to global data
+
+ - "Patches" to init and probe functions
+
+ - Patching otherwise unpatchable code (i.e. assembly)
+
+In most cases, (un)patch callbacks will need to be used in conjunction
+with memory barriers and kernel synchronization primitives, like
+mutexes/spinlocks, or even stop_machine(), to avoid concurrency issues.
+
+Callbacks differ from existing kernel facilities:
+
+ - Module init/exit code doesn't run when disabling and re-enabling a
+ patch.
+
+ - A module notifier can't stop a to-be-patched module from loading.
+
+Callbacks are part of the klp_object structure and their implementation
+is specific to that klp_object. Other livepatch objects may or may not
+be patched, irrespective of the target klp_object's current state.
+
+Callbacks can be registered for the following livepatch actions:
+
+ * Pre-patch - before a klp_object is patched
+
+ * Post-patch - after a klp_object has been patched and is active
+ across all tasks
+
+ * Pre-unpatch - before a klp_object is unpatched (ie, patched code is
+ active), used to clean up post-patch callback
+ resources
+
+ * Post-unpatch - after a klp_object has been patched, all code has
+ been restored and no tasks are running patched code,
+ used to cleanup pre-patch callback resources
+
+Each callback is optional, omitting one does not preclude specifying any
+other. However, the livepatching core executes the handlers in
+symmetry: pre-patch callbacks have a post-unpatch counterpart and
+post-patch callbacks have a pre-unpatch counterpart. An unpatch
+callback will only be executed if its corresponding patch callback was
+executed. Typical use cases pair a patch handler that acquires and
+configures resources with an unpatch handler tears down and releases
+those same resources.
+
+A callback is only executed if its host klp_object is loaded. For
+in-kernel vmlinux targets, this means that callbacks will always execute
+when a livepatch is enabled/disabled. For patch target kernel modules,
+callbacks will only execute if the target module is loaded. When a
+module target is (un)loaded, its callbacks will execute only if the
+livepatch module is enabled.
+
+The pre-patch callback, if specified, is expected to return a status
+code (0 for success, -ERRNO on error). An error status code indicates
+to the livepatching core that patching of the current klp_object is not
+safe and to stop the current patching request. (When no pre-patch
+callback is provided, the transition is assumed to be safe.) If a
+pre-patch callback returns failure, the kernel's module loader will:
+
+ - Refuse to load a livepatch, if the livepatch is loaded after
+ targeted code.
+
+ or:
+
+ - Refuse to load a module, if the livepatch was already successfully
+ loaded.
+
+No post-patch, pre-unpatch, or post-unpatch callbacks will be executed
+for a given klp_object if the object failed to patch, due to a failed
+pre_patch callback or for any other reason.
+
+If a patch transition is reversed, no pre-unpatch handlers will be run
+(this follows the previously mentioned symmetry -- pre-unpatch callbacks
+will only occur if their corresponding post-patch callback executed).
+
+If the object did successfully patch, but the patch transition never
+started for some reason (e.g., if another object failed to patch),
+only the post-unpatch callback will be called.
+
+
+Example Use-cases
+=================
+
+Update global data
+------------------
+
+A pre-patch callback can be useful to update a global variable. For
+example, 75ff39ccc1bd ("tcp: make challenge acks less predictable")
+changes a global sysctl, as well as patches the tcp_send_challenge_ack()
+function.
+
+In this case, if we're being super paranoid, it might make sense to
+patch the data *after* patching is complete with a post-patch callback,
+so that tcp_send_challenge_ack() could first be changed to read
+sysctl_tcp_challenge_ack_limit with READ_ONCE.
+
+
+Support __init and probe function patches
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Although __init and probe functions are not directly livepatch-able, it
+may be possible to implement similar updates via pre/post-patch
+callbacks.
+
+48900cb6af42 ("virtio-net: drop NETIF_F_FRAGLIST") change the way that
+virtnet_probe() initialized its driver's net_device features. A
+pre/post-patch callback could iterate over all such devices, making a
+similar change to their hw_features value. (Client functions of the
+value may need to be updated accordingly.)
+
+
+Test cases
+==========
+
+What follows is not an exhaustive test suite of every possible livepatch
+pre/post-(un)patch combination, but a selection that demonstrates a few
+important concepts. Each test case uses the kernel modules located in
+the samples/livepatch/ and assumes that no livepatches are loaded at the
+beginning of the test.
+
+
+Test 1
+------
+
+Test a combination of loading a kernel module and a livepatch that
+patches a function in the first module. (Un)load the target module
+before the livepatch module:
+
+- load target module
+- load livepatch
+- disable livepatch
+- unload target module
+- unload livepatch
+
+First load a target module:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 34.475708] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+On livepatch enable, before the livepatch transition starts, pre-patch
+callbacks are executed for vmlinux and livepatch_callbacks_mod (those
+klp_objects currently loaded). After klp_objects are patched according
+to the klp_patch, their post-patch callbacks run and the transition
+completes:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 36.503719] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 36.504213] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition
+ [ 36.504238] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_patch_callback: vmlinux
+ [ 36.504721] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_patch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_LIVE] Normal state
+ [ 36.505849] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': starting patching transition

+ [ 37.728792] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+Similarly, on livepatch disable, pre-patch callbacks run before the
+unpatching transition starts. klp_objects are reverted, post-patch
+callbacks execute and the transition completes:
+
+ % echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled
+ [ 38.510209] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing unpatching transition
+ [ 38.510234] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_unpatch_callback: vmlinux

+
+
+Test 2
+------
+
+This test is similar to the previous test, but (un)load the livepatch
+module before the target kernel module. This tests the livepatch core's
+module_coming handler:
+
+- load livepatch
+- load target module
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+- unload target module
+
+
+On livepatch enable, only pre/post-patch callbacks are executed for
+currently loaded klp_objects, in this case, vmlinux:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 44.553328] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 44.553997] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition

+ [ 45.727212] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_patch_callback: vmlinux
+ [ 45.727961] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+When a targeted module is subsequently loaded, only its pre/post-patch
+callbacks are executed:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 46.560845] livepatch: applying patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo' to loading module 'livepatch_callbacks_mod'

+ [ 46.565495] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+On livepatch disable, all currently loaded klp_objects' (vmlinux and
+livepatch_callbacks_mod) pre/post-unpatch callbacks are executed:
+
+ % echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled

+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 52.592283] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit
+
+
+Test 3
+------
+
+Test loading the livepatch after a targeted kernel module, then unload
+the kernel module before disabling the livepatch. This tests the
+livepatch core's module_going handler:
+
+- load target module
+- load livepatch
+- unload target module
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+
+First load a target module, then the livepatch:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 54.607948] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 56.613919] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 56.614411] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition
+ [ 56.614436] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_patch_callback: vmlinux

+ [ 57.760307] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+When a target module is unloaded, the livepatch is only reverted from
+that klp_object (livepatch_callbacks_mod). As such, only its pre and
+post-unpatch callbacks are executed when this occurs:
+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 58.623409] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit
+ [ 58.623903] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_unpatch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_GOING] Going away
+ [ 58.624658] livepatch: reverting patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo' on unloading module 'livepatch_callbacks_mod'
+ [ 58.625305] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_unpatch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_GOING] Going away
+
+When the livepatch is disabled, pre and post-unpatch callbacks are run
+for the remaining klp_object, vmlinux:
+
+ % echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled
+ [ 60.638420] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing unpatching transition

+ [ 61.727985] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': unpatching complete
+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+
+
+Test 4
+------
+
+This test is similar to the previous test, however the livepatch is
+loaded first. This tests the livepatch core's module_coming and
+module_going handlers:
+
+- load livepatch
+- load target module
+- unload target module
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+
+First load the livepatch:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 64.661552] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 64.662147] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition

+ [ 65.695147] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_patch_callback: vmlinux
+ [ 65.695561] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+When a targeted kernel module is subsequently loaded, only its
+pre/post-patch callbacks are executed:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 66.669196] livepatch: applying patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo' to loading module 'livepatch_callbacks_mod'
+ [ 66.669882] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_patch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_COMING] Full formed, running module_init

+ [ 66.672873] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+When the target module is unloaded, the livepatch is only reverted from
+the livepatch_callbacks_mod klp_object. As such, only pre and
+post-unpatch callbacks are executed when this occurs:
+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 68.680065] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit

+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+
+
+Test 5
+------
+
+A simple test of loading a livepatch without one of its patch target
+klp_objects ever loaded (livepatch_callbacks_mod):
+
+- load livepatch
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+
+Load the livepatch:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 74.711081] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 74.711595] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition

+ [ 75.743137] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': completing patching transition
+ [ 75.743219] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_patch_callback: vmlinux
+ [ 75.743867] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+As expected, only pre/post-(un)patch handlers are executed for vmlinux:
+
+ % echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled
+ [ 76.716254] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing unpatching transition

+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+
+
+Test 6
+------
+
+Test a scenario where a vmlinux pre-patch callback returns a non-zero
+status (ie, failure):
+
+- load target module
+- load livepatch -ENODEV
+- unload target module
+
+First load a target module:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 80.740520] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+Load the livepatch module, setting its 'pre_patch_ret' value to -19
+(-ENODEV). When its vmlinux pre-patch callback executed, this status
+code will propagate back to the module-loading subsystem. The result is
+that the insmod command refuses to load the livepatch module:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko pre_patch_ret=-19

+ [ 84.774238] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit
+
+
+Test 7
+------
+
+Similar to the previous test, setup a livepatch such that its vmlinux
+pre-patch callback returns success. However, when a targeted kernel
+module is later loaded, have the livepatch return a failing status code:
+
+- load livepatch
+- setup -ENODEV
+- load target module
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+
+Load the livepatch, notice vmlinux pre-patch callback succeeds:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 86.787845] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'

+ [ 87.711143] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_patch_callback: vmlinux
+ [ 87.711886] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': patching complete
+
+Set a trap so subsequent pre-patch callbacks to this livepatch will
+return -ENODEV:
+
+ % echo -19 > /sys/module/livepatch_callbacks_demo/parameters/pre_patch_ret
+
+The livepatch pre-patch callback for subsequently loaded target modules
+will return failure, so the module loader refuses to load the kernel
+module. Notice that no post-patch or pre/post-unpatch callbacks are
+executed for this klp_object:

+Test loading multiple targeted kernel modules. This test-case is

+Test 9
+------
+
+A similar test as the previous one, but force the "busy" kernel module
+to do longer work.
+
+The livepatching core will refuse to patch a task that is currently
+executing a to-be-patched function -- the consistency model stalls the
+current patch transition until this safety-check is met. Test a
+scenario where one of a livepatch's target klp_objects sits on such a
+function for a long time. Meanwhile, load and unload other target
+kernel modules while the livepatch transition is in progress.
+
+- load busy target module (30s sleep)
+- load livepatch
+- load target module
+- unload target module
+- disable livepatch
+- unload livepatch
+- unload busy target module
+
+
+Load the "busy" kernel module, this time make it do 30 seconds worth of
+work:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-busymod.ko sleep_secs=30
+ [ 110.993362] livepatch_callbacks_busymod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+ [ 110.994059] livepatch_callbacks_busymod: busymod_work_func, sleeping 30 seconds ...
+
+Meanwhile, the livepatch is loaded. Notice that the patch transition
+does not complete as the targeted "busy" module is sitting on a
+to-be-patched function:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ [ 113.000309] livepatch: enabling patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo'
+ [ 113.000764] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': initializing patching transition

+ [ 113.005208] livepatch: 'livepatch_callbacks_demo': starting patching transition
+
+Load a second target module (this one is an ordinary idle kernel
+module). Note that *no* post-patch callbacks will be executed while the
+livepatch is still in transition:
+
+ % insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 115.012740] livepatch: applying patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo' to loading module 'livepatch_callbacks_mod'
+ [ 115.013406] livepatch_callbacks_demo: pre_patch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_COMING] Full formed, running module_init
+ [ 115.015315] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_init
+
+Request an unload of the simple kernel module. The patch is still
+transitioning, so its pre-unpatch callbacks are skipped:
+
+ % rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ [ 117.022626] livepatch_callbacks_mod: livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit
+ [ 117.023376] livepatch: reverting patch 'livepatch_callbacks_demo' on unloading module 'livepatch_callbacks_mod'
+ [ 117.024533] livepatch_callbacks_demo: post_unpatch_callback: livepatch_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_GOING] Going away
+
+Finally the livepatch is disabled. Since none of the patch's
+klp_object's post-patch callbacks executed, the remaining klp_object's
+pre-unpatch callbacks are skipped:
+
+ % echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled

+================
+Shadow Variables
+================
+
+Shadow variables are a simple way for livepatch modules to associate
+additional "shadow" data with existing data structures. Shadow data is
+allocated separately from parent data structures, which are left
+unmodified. The shadow variable API described in this document is used
+to allocate/add and remove/free shadow variables to/from their parents.
+
+The implementation introduces a global, in-kernel hashtable that
+associates pointers to parent objects and a numeric identifier of the
+shadow data. The numeric identifier is a simple enumeration that may be
+used to describe shadow variable version, class or type, etc. More
+specifically, the parent pointer serves as the hashtable key while the
+numeric id subsequently filters hashtable queries. Multiple shadow
+variables may attach to the same parent object, but their numeric
+identifier distinguishes between them.
+
+
+1. Brief API summary
+====================
+
+(See the full API usage docbook notes in livepatch/shadow.c.)
+
+A hashtable references all shadow variables. These references are
+stored and retrieved through a <obj, id> pair.
+
+* The klp_shadow variable data structure encapsulates both tracking
+meta-data and shadow-data:
+ - meta-data
+ - obj - pointer to parent object
+ - id - data identifier
+ - data[] - storage for shadow data
+
+It is important to note that the klp_shadow_alloc() and
+klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() calls, described below, store a *copy* of the
+data that the functions are provided. Callers should provide whatever
+mutual exclusion is required of the shadow data.
+
+* klp_shadow_get() - retrieve a shadow variable data pointer
+ - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+
+* klp_shadow_alloc() - allocate and add a new shadow variable
+ - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+ - if exists
+ - WARN and return NULL
+ - if <obj, id> doesn't already exist
+ - allocate a new shadow variable
+ - copy data into the new shadow variable
+ - add <obj, id> to the global hashtable
+
+* klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() - get existing or alloc a new shadow variable
+ - search hashtable for <obj, id> pair
+ - if exists
+ - return existing shadow variable
+ - if <obj, id> doesn't already exist
+ - allocate a new shadow variable
+ - copy data into the new shadow variable
+ - add <obj, id> pair to the global hashtable
+
+* klp_shadow_free() - detach and free a <obj, id> shadow variable
+ - find and remove a <obj, id> reference from global hashtable
+ - if found, free shadow variable
+
+* klp_shadow_free_all() - detach and free all <*, id> shadow variables
+ - find and remove any <*, id> references from global hashtable
+ - if found, free shadow variable
+
+
+2. Use cases
+============
+
+(See the example shadow variable livepatch modules in samples/livepatch/
+for full working demonstrations.)
+
+For the following use-case examples, consider commit 1d147bfa6429
+("mac80211: fix AP powersave TX vs. wakeup race"), which added a
+spinlock to net/mac80211/sta_info.h :: struct sta_info. Each use-case
+example can be considered a stand-alone livepatch implementation of this
+fix.
+
+
+Matching parent's lifecycle
+---------------------------
+
+If parent data structures are frequently created and destroyed, it may
+be easiest to align their shadow variables lifetimes to the same
+allocation and release functions. In this case, the parent data
+structure is typically allocated, initialized, then registered in some
+manner. Shadow variable allocation and setup can then be considered
+part of the parent's initialization and should be completed before the
+parent "goes live" (ie, any shadow variable get-API requests are made
+for this <obj, id> pair.)
+
+For commit 1d147bfa6429, when a parent sta_info structure is allocated,
+allocate a shadow copy of the ps_lock pointer, then initialize it:
+
+#define PS_LOCK 1
+struct sta_info *sta_info_alloc(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata,
+ const u8 *addr, gfp_t gfp)
+{
+ struct sta_info *sta;
+ spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+ /* Parent structure is created */
+ sta = kzalloc(sizeof(*sta) + hw->sta_data_size, gfp);
+
+ /* Attach a corresponding shadow variable, then initialize it */
+ ps_lock = klp_shadow_alloc(sta, PS_LOCK, NULL, sizeof(*ps_lock), gfp);
+ if (!ps_lock)
+ goto shadow_fail;
+ spin_lock_init(ps_lock);
+ ...
+
+When requiring a ps_lock, query the shadow variable API to retrieve one
+for a specific struct sta_info:
+
+void ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup(struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+ spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+ /* sync with ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf */
+ ps_lock = klp_shadow_get(sta, PS_LOCK);
+ if (ps_lock)
+ spin_lock(ps_lock);
+ ...
+
+When the parent sta_info structure is freed, first free the shadow
+variable:
+
+void sta_info_free(struct ieee80211_local *local, struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+ klp_shadow_free(sta, PS_LOCK);
+ kfree(sta);
+ ...
+
+
+In-flight parent objects
+------------------------
+
+Sometimes it may not be convenient or possible to allocate shadow
+variables alongside their parent objects. Or a livepatch fix may
+require shadow varibles to only a subset of parent object instances. In
+these cases, the klp_shadow_get_or_alloc() call can be used to attach
+shadow variables to parents already in-flight.
+
+For commit 1d147bfa6429, a good spot to allocate a shadow spinlock is
+inside ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup():
+
+#define PS_LOCK 1
+void ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup(struct sta_info *sta)
+{
+ DEFINE_SPINLOCK(ps_lock_fallback);
+ spinlock_t *ps_lock;
+
+ /* sync with ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf */
+ ps_lock = klp_shadow_get_or_alloc(sta, PS_LOCK,
+ &ps_lock_fallback, sizeof(ps_lock_fallback),
+ GFP_ATOMIC);
+ if (ps_lock)
+ spin_lock(ps_lock);
+ ...
+
+This usage will create a shadow variable, only if needed, otherwise it
+will use one that was already created for this <obj, id> pair.
+
+Like the previous use-case, the shadow spinlock needs to be cleaned up.
+A shadow variable can be freed just before its parent object is freed,
+or even when the shadow variable itself is no longer required.
+
+
+Other use-cases
+---------------
+
+Shadow variables can also be used as a flag indicating that a data
+structure was allocated by new, livepatched code. In this case, it
+doesn't matter what data value the shadow variable holds, its existence
+suggests how to handle the parent object.
+

+ * DOC: Shadow variable API concurrency notes:
+ *
+ * The shadow variable API provides a simple relationship between an
+ * <obj, id> pair and a pointer value. It is the responsibility of the
+ * caller to provide any mutual exclusion required of the shadow data.
+ *
+ * Once a shadow variable is attached to its parent object via the
+ * klp_shadow_*alloc() API calls, it is considered live: any subsequent
+ * call to klp_shadow_get() may then return the shadow variable's data
+ * pointer. Callers of klp_shadow_*alloc() should prepare shadow data
+ * accordingly.
+ *
+ * The klp_shadow_*alloc() API calls may allocate memory for new shadow
+ * variable structures. Their implementation does not call kmalloc
+ * inside any spinlocks, but API callers should pass GFP flags according
+ * to their specific needs.
+ *
+ * The klp_shadow_hash is an RCU-enabled hashtable and is safe against
+ * concurrent klp_shadow_free() and klp_shadow_get() operations.

+ *
+ * Purpose
+ * -------
+ *
+ * Demonstration of registering livepatch (un)patching callbacks.
+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * -----
+ *
+ * Step 1 - load the simple module
+ *
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 2 - load the demonstration livepatch (with callbacks)
+ *
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 3 - cleanup
+ *
+ * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled
+ * rmmod livepatch_callbacks_demo
+ * rmmod livepatch_callbacks_mod
+ *
+ * Watch dmesg output to see livepatch enablement, callback execution
+ * and patching operations for both vmlinux and module targets.
+ *
+ * NOTE: swap the insmod order of livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko and
+ * livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko to observe what happens when a
+ * target module is loaded after a livepatch with callbacks.
+ *
+ * NOTE: 'pre_patch_ret' is a module parameter that sets the pre-patch
+ * callback return status. Try setting up a non-zero status
+ * such as -19 (-ENODEV):
+ *
+ * # Load demo livepatch, vmlinux is patched
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ * # Setup next pre-patch callback to return -ENODEV
+ * echo -19 > /sys/module/livepatch_callbacks_demo/parameters/pre_patch_ret
+ *
+ * # Module loader refuses to load the target module
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ * insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko: No such device
+ *
+ * NOTE: There is a second target module,
+ * livepatch-callbacks-busymod.ko, available for experimenting
+ * with livepatch (un)patch callbacks. This module contains
+ * a 'sleep_secs' parameter that parks the module on one of the
+ * functions that the livepatch demo module wants to patch.
+ * Modifying this value and tweaking the order of module loads can
+ * effectively demonstrate stalled patch transitions:
+ *
+ * # Load a target module, let it park on 'busymod_work_func' for
+ * # thirty seconds
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-busymod.ko sleep_secs=30
+ *
+ * # Meanwhile load the livepatch
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
+ *
+ * # ... then load and unload another target module while the
+ * # transition is in progress
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ * rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-mod.ko
+ *
+ * # Finally cleanup
+ * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_callbacks_demo/enabled

+ * livepatch-shadow-mod.c - Shadow variables, buggy module demo
+ *
+ * Purpose
+ * -------
+ *
+ * As a demonstration of livepatch shadow variable API, this module
+ * introduces memory leak behavior that livepatch modules
+ * livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko and livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko correct and
+ * enhance.
+ *
+ * WARNING - even though the livepatch-shadow-fix modules patch the
+ * memory leak, please load these modules at your own risk -- some
+ * amount of memory may leaked before the bug is patched.
+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * -----
+ *
+ * Step 1 - Load the buggy demonstration module:
+ *
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-mod.ko
+ *
+ * Watch dmesg output for a few moments to see new dummy being allocated
+ * and a periodic cleanup check. (Note: a small amount of memory is
+ * being leaked.)
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 2 - Load livepatch fix1:
+ *
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko
+ *
+ * Continue watching dmesg and note that now livepatch_fix1_dummy_free()
+ * and livepatch_fix1_dummy_alloc() are logging messages about leaked
+ * memory and eventually leaks prevented.
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 3 - Load livepatch fix2 (on top of fix1):
+ *
+ * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko
+ *
+ * This module extends functionality through shadow variables, as a new
+ * "check" counter is added to the dummy structure. Periodic dmesg
+ * messages will log these as dummies are cleaned up.
+ *
+ *
+ * Step 4 - Cleanup
+ *
+ * Unwind the demonstration by disabling the livepatch fix modules, then
+ * removing them and the demo module:
+ *
+ * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix2/enabled
+ * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix1/enabled
+ * rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix2
+ * rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix1
