livepatch: add (un)patch callbacks
Provide livepatch modules a klp_object (un)patching notification mechanism. Pre and post-(un)patch callbacks allow livepatch modules to setup or synchronize changes that would be difficult to support in only patched-or-unpatched code contexts. Callbacks can be registered for target module or vmlinux klp_objects, but each implementation is klp_object specific. - Pre-(un)patch callbacks run before any (un)patching transition starts. - Post-(un)patch callbacks run once an object has been (un)patched and the klp_patch fully transitioned to its target state. Example use cases include modification of global data and registration of newly available services/handlers. See Documentation/livepatch/callbacks.txt for details and samples/livepatch/ for examples.

+ * livepatch-callbacks-demo.c - (un)patching callbacks livepatch demo
+ *
+ *
+ * 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
+ * rmmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-callbacks-demo.ko
