2015-02-22livepatch: RCU protect struct klp_func all the time when used in ↵Petr Mladek
klp_ftrace_handler() func->new_func has been accessed after rcu_read_unlock() in klp_ftrace_handler() and therefore the access was not protected. Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
2015-02-18livepatch: simplify disable error pathJosh Poimboeuf
If registering the function with ftrace has previously succeeded, unregistering will almost never fail. Even if it does, it's not a fatal error. We can still carry on and disable the klp_func from being used by removing it from the klp_ops func stack.

kobject_init_and_add() takes expects format string for a name, so we better provide it in order to avoid infoleaks if modules craft their mod->name in a special way.

2015-01-20livepatch: support for repatching a functionJosh Poimboeuf
Add support for patching a function multiple times. If multiple patches affect a function, the function in the most recently enabled patch "wins". This enables a cumulative patch upgrade path, where each patch is a superset of previous patches. This requires restructuring the data a little bit. With the current design, where each klp_func struct has its own ftrace_ops, we'd have to unregister the old ops and then register the new ops, because FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY prevents us from having two ops registered for the same function at the same time. That would leave a regression window where the function isn't patched at all (not good for a patch upgrade path). This patch replaces the per-klp_func ftrace_ops with a global klp_ops list, with one ftrace_ops per original function. A single ftrace_ops is shared between all klp_funcs which have the same old_addr. This allows the switch between function versions to happen instantaneously by updating the klp_ops struct's func_stack list. The winner is the klp_func at the top of the func_stack (front of the list).

2015-01-09livepatch: fix deferred module patching orderJosh Poimboeuf

2015-01-09livepatch: handle ancient compilers with more graceJiri Kosina
We are aborting a build in case when gcc doesn't support fentry on x86_64 (regs->ip modification can't really reliably work with mcount). This however breaks allmodconfig for people with older gccs that don't support -mfentry. Turn the build-time failure into runtime failure, resulting in the whole infrastructure not being initialized if CC_USING_FENTRY is unset.

2014-12-22livepatch: kernel: add support for live patchingSeth Jennings
This commit introduces code for the live patching core. It implements an ftrace-based mechanism and kernel interface for doing live patching of kernel and kernel module functions. It represents the greatest common functionality set between kpatch and kgraft and can accept patches built using either method. This first version does not implement any consistency mechanism that ensures that old and new code do not run together. In practice, ~90% of CVEs are safe to apply in this way, since they simply add a conditional check. However, any function change that can not execute safely with the old version of the function can _not_ be safely applied in this version.
