module: Fix use-after-free bug in read_file_mod_stats()
Smatch warns:
kernel/module/stats.c:394 read_file_mod_stats()
warn: passing freed memory 'buf'
We are passing 'buf' to simple_read_from_buffer() after freeing it.
Fix this by changing the order of 'simple_read_from_buffer' and 'kfree'.

module: remove use of uninitialized variable len
clang build reports
kernel/module/stats.c:307:34: error: variable

At the start of this sequence, neither the '+ 0', nor the '- len' are needed.
So remove them and fix using 'len' uninitalized.

module: fix building stats for 32-bit targets
The new module statistics code mixes 64-bit types and wordsized 'long'
variables, which leads to build failures on 32-bit architectures:
kernel/module/stats.c: In function 'read_file_mod_stats':
kernel/module/stats.c:291:29: error: passing argument 1 of 'atomic64_read' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
291 | total_size = atomic64_read(&total_mod_size);
x86_64-linux-ld: kernel/module/stats.o: in function `read_file_mod_stats':
stats.c:(.text+0x2b2): undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
To fix this, the code has to use one of the two types consistently.
Change them all to word-size types here.

module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready
The finit_module() system call can create unnecessary virtual memory
pressure for duplicate modules. This is because load_module() can in
the worse case allocate more than twice the size of a module in virtual
memory. This saves at least a full size of the module in wasted vmalloc
space memory by trying to avoid duplicates as soon as we can validate
the module name in the read module structure.
This can only be an issue if a system is getting hammered with userspace
loading modules. There are two ways to load modules typically on systems,
one is the kernel moduile auto-loading (*request_module*() calls in-kernel)
and the other is things like udev. The auto-loading is in-kernel, but that
pings back to userspace to just call modprobe. We already have a way to
restrict the amount of concurrent kernel auto-loads in a given time, however
that still allows multiple requests for the same module to go through
and force two threads in userspace racing to call modprobe for the same
exact module. Even though libkmod which both modprobe and udev does check
if a module is already loaded prior calling finit_module() races are
still possible and this is clearly evident today when you have multiple
CPUs.
To avoid memory pressure for such stupid cases put a stop gap for them.
The *earliest* we can detect duplicates from the modules side of things
is once we have blessed the module name, sadly after the first vmalloc
allocation. We can check for the module being present *before* a secondary
vmalloc() allocation.
There is a linear relationship between wasted virtual memory bytes and
the number of CPU counts. The reason is that udev ends up racing to call
tons of the same modules for each of the CPUs.
We can see the different linear relationships between wasted virtual
memory and CPU count during after boot in the following graph:

CPUs count
On the y-axis we can see gigabytes of wasted virtual memory during boot
due to duplicate module requests which just end up failing. Trying to
infer the slope this ends up being about ~463 MiB per CPU lost prior
to this patch. After this patch we only loose about ~230 MiB per CPU, for
a total savings of about ~233 MiB per CPU. This is all *just on bootup*!
On a 8vcpu 8 GiB RAM system using kdevops and testing against selftests
kmod.sh -t 0008 I see a saving in the *highest* side of memory
consumption of up to ~ 84 MiB with the Linux kernel selftests kmod
test 0008. With the new stress-ng module test I see a 145 MiB difference
in max memory consumption with 100 ops. The stress-ng module ops tests can be
pretty pathalogical -- it is not realistic, however it was used to
finally successfully reproduce issues which are only reported to happen on
system with over 400 CPUs [0] by just usign 100 ops on a 8vcpu 8 GiB RAM
system. Running out of virtual memory space is no surprise given the
above graph, since at least on x86_64 we're capped at 128 MiB, eventually
we'd hit a series of errors and once can use the above graph to
guestimate when. This of course will vary depending on the features
you have enabled. So for instance, enabling KASAN seems to make this
much worse.
The results with kmod and stress-ng can be observed and visualized below.
The time it takes to run the test is also not affected.
The kmod tests 0008:
The gnuplot is set to a range from 400000 KiB (390 Mib) - 580000 (566 Mib)
given the tests peak around that range.
cat kmod.plot
set term dumb
set output fileout
set yrange [400000:580000]
plot filein with linespoints title "Memory usage (KiB)"
Before:
root@kmod ~ # /data/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008
root@kmod ~ # free -k -s 1 -c 40 | grep Mem | awk '{print $3}' > log-0008-before.txt ^C
root@kmod ~ # sort -n -r log-0008-before.txt | head -1
528732
So ~516.33 MiB
After:
root@kmod ~ # /data/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008
root@kmod ~ # free -k -s 1 -c 40 | grep Mem | awk '{print $3}' > log-0008-after.txt ^C
root@kmod ~ # sort -n -r log-0008-after.txt | head -1
442516
So ~432.14 MiB
That's about 84 ~MiB in savings in the worst case. The graphs:

module: add debug stats to help identify memory pressure
Loading modules with finit_module() can end up using vmalloc(), vmap()
and vmalloc() again, for a total of up to 3 separate allocations in the
worst case for a single module. We always kernel_read*() the module,
that's a vmalloc(). Then vmap() is used for the module decompression,
and if so the last read buffer is freed as we use the now decompressed
module buffer to stuff data into our copy module. The last allocation is
specific to each architectures but pretty much that's generally a series
of vmalloc() calls or a variation of vmalloc to handle ELF sections with
special permissions.
Evaluation with new stress-ng module support [1] with just 100 ops
is proving that you can end up using GiBs of data easily even with all
care we have in the kernel and userspace today in trying to not load modules
which are already loaded. 100 ops seems to resemble the sort of pressure a
system with about 400 CPUs can create on module loading. Although issues
relating to duplicate module requests due to each CPU inucurring a new
module reuest is silly and some of these are being fixed, we currently lack
proper tooling to help diagnose easily what happened, when it happened
and who likely is to blame -- userspace or kernel module autoloading.
Provide an initial set of stats which use debugfs to let us easily scrape
post-boot information about failed loads. This sort of information can
be used on production worklaods to try to optimize *avoiding* redundant
memory pressure using finit_module().
There's a few examples that can be provided:
A 255 vCPU system without the next patch in this series applied:
Startup finished in 19.143s (kernel) + 7.078s (userspace) = 26.221s
graphical.target reached after 6.988s in userspace
And 13.58 GiB of virtual memory space lost due to failed module loading:

The following screen shot, of a simple 8vcpu 8 GiB KVM guest with the
next patch in this series applied, shows 226.53 MiB are wasted in virtual
memory allocations which due to duplicate module requests during boot.
It also shows an average module memory size of 167.10 KiB and an an
average module .text + .init.text size of 61.13 KiB. The end shows all
modules which were detected as duplicate requests and whether or not
they failed early after just the first kernel_read*() call or late after
we've already allocated the private space for the module in
layout_and_allocate(). A system with module decompression would reveal
more wasted virtual memory space.
We should put effort now into identifying the source of these duplicate
module requests and trimming these down as much possible. Larger systems
will obviously show much more wasted virtual memory allocations.
