mm/execmem, arch: convert simple overrides of module_alloc to execmem

Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address
range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space.

Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters for
address space ranges, required alignment and page protections provided
by architectures.

The architectures must fill execmem_info structure and implement
execmem_arch_setup() that returns a pointer to that structure. This way the
execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture, but rather
from a central place, namely a core_initcall() in execmem.

The execmem provides execmem_alloc() API that wraps __vmalloc_node_range()
with the parameters defined by the architectures. If an architecture does
not implement execmem_arch_setup(), execmem_alloc() will fall back to
module_alloc().

MIPS: module: optimize module relocations processing

For now, module relocation functions are implemented as an array
of handlers of type reloc_handler_t.

Convert that array into a single switch-case function to:
- remove unused arguments;
- change the return type of simple handlers to void;
- remove the array and don't use any data at all;
- avoid using indirect calls;
- allow the compiler to inline and greatly optimize
the relocation function[s].

The result on MIPS32 R2 with GCC 10.2 -O2 is:

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

MIPS: Migrate exception table users off module.h and onto extable.h

These files were only including module.h for exception table
related functions. We've now separated that content out into its
own file "extable.h" so now move over to that and avoid all the
extra header content in module.h that we don't really need to compile
these files.

In the case of traps.c we can't dump the module.h include since it is
also used to provide "print_modules".

MIPS: module: fix incorrect IS_ERR_VALUE macro usages

IS_ERR_VALUE macro should be used only with unsigned long type.
Specifically it works incorrectly with longer types.

The patch follows conclusion from discussion on LKML [1][2].

[2]: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2150581

[[email protected]: While it may not immediately be obvious, the type
of st_value in the end is an unsigned long equivalent so the invocation
of IS_ERR_VALUE() was valid but I'm applying the patch anyway for
clarity.]

MIPS: Support R_MIPS_PC{16,21,26} rel-style relocs

MIPS32 code uses rel-style relocs, and MIPS32r6 modules may include
R_MIPS_PC16, R_MIPS_PC21 & R_MIPS_PC26 relocations. We thus need to
support these relocations in order to load MIPS32r6 kernel modules. This
patch adds such support, which is similar to the rela-style support in
module-rela.c but making use of the implicit addend from the instruction
encoding.

MIPS: Bail on unsupported module relocs

When an unsupported reloc is encountered in a module, we currently
blindly branch to whatever would be at its entry in the reloc handler
function pointer arrays. This may be NULL, or if the unsupported reloc
has a type greater than that of the supported reloc with the highest
type then we'll dereference some value after the function pointer array
& branch to that. The result is at best a kernel oops.

Fix this by checking that the reloc type has an entry in the function
pointer array (ie. is less than the number of items in the array) and
that the handler is non-NULL, returning an error code to fail the module
load if no handler is found.

mm: vmalloc: pass additional vm_flags to __vmalloc_node_range()

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().

__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().

Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

The relocation code was essentially taken from the 2.4 modutils which
