Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain: "Tux gets for xmas an improvement to the average lookup performance of kallsyms_lookup_name() by 715x thanks to the work by Zhen Lei, which upgraded our old implementation from being O(n) to O(log(n)), while also retaining the old implementation support on /proc/kallsyms. The only penalty was increasing the memory footprint by 3 * kallsyms_num_syms. Folks who want to improve this further now also have a dedicated selftest facility through KALLSYMS_SELFTEST. Stephen Boyd added zstd in-kernel decompression support, but the only users of this would be folks using the load-pin LSM because otherwise we do module decompression in userspace. The only other thing with mentioning is a minor boot time optimization by Rasmus Villemoes which deferes param_sysfs_init() to late init. The rest is cleanups and minor fixes" * tag 'modules-6.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: livepatch: Call klp_match_callback() in klp_find_callback() to avoid code duplication module/decompress: Support zstd in-kernel decompression kallsyms: Remove unneeded semicolon kallsyms: Add self-test facility livepatch: Use kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() to improve performance kallsyms: Add helper kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() kallsyms: Reduce the memory occupied by kallsyms_seqs_of_names[] kallsyms: Correctly sequence symbols when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y kallsyms: Improve the performance of kallsyms_lookup_name() scripts/kallsyms: rename build_initial_tok_table() module: Fix NULL vs IS_ERR checking for module_get_next_page kernel/params.c: defer most of param_sysfs_init() to late_initcall time module: Remove unused macros module_addr_min/max module: remove redundant module_sysfs_initialized variable

livepatch: Call klp_match_callback() in klp_find_callback() to avoid code duplication

2022-12-13T02:30:58Z

The implementation of function klp_match_callback() is identical to the partial implementation of function klp_find_callback(). So call function klp_match_callback() in function klp_find_callback() instead of the duplicated code.

ftrace: rename ftrace_instruction_pointer_set() -> ftrace_regs_set_instruction_pointer()

2022-11-18T13:56:41Z

In subsequent patches we'll add a sew of ftrace_regs_{get,set}_*() helpers. In preparation, this patch renames ftrace_instruction_pointer_set() to ftrace_regs_set_instruction_pointer(). There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

livepatch: Use kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() to improve performance

2022-11-13T02:47:36Z

Based on the test results of kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() and kallsyms_on_each_symbol(), the average performance can be improved by more than 1500 times. Signed-off-by: Zhen Lei Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain

livepatch: Move the result-invariant calculation out of the loop

2022-10-18T13:50:31Z

The calculation results of the variables 'func_addr' and 'func_size' are not affected by the for loop and do not change due to the changes of entries[i]. The performance can be improved by moving it outside the loop. No functional change. Signed-off-by: Zhen Lei Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

kallsyms: increase maximum kernel symbol length to 512

2022-09-28T06:56:25Z

Rust symbols can become quite long due to namespacing introduced by modules, types, traits, generics, etc. For instance, the following code: pub mod my_module { pub struct MyType; pub struct MyGenericType(T); pub trait MyTrait { fn my_method() -> u32; } impl MyTrait for MyGenericType { fn my_method() -> u32 { 42 } } } generates a symbol of length 96 when using the upcoming v0 mangling scheme: _RNvXNtCshGpAVYOtgW1_7example9my_moduleINtB2_13MyGenericTypeNtB2_6MyTypeENtB2_7MyTrait9my_method At the moment, Rust symbols may reach up to 300 in length. Setting 512 as the maximum seems like a reasonable choice to keep some headroom.

livepatch: add sysfs entry "patched" for each klp_object

2022-09-23T14:06:18Z

Add per klp_object sysfs entry "patched". It makes it easier to debug typos in the module name.
