Adrian Bunk points out that "unsafe" was used to mark modules touched by the deprecated MOD_INC_USE_COUNT interface, which has long gone. It's time to remove the member from the module structure, as well. If you want a module which can't unload, don't register an exit function. (Vlad Yasevich says SCTP is now safe to unload, so just remove the __unsafe there).

KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero. This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly. * off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro is fixed. * Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together, MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the trailing '\0'. Fix it.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to accessing removed modules. This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the backing module from being unloaded. For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the following message. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/510293 (tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to merge things properly.)

On recent systems, calls to /sbin/modprobe are handled by udev depending on the kind of device the kernel has discovered. This patch creates an uevent for the kernels internal request_module(), to let udev take control over the request, instead of forking the binary directly by the kernel. The direct execution of /sbin/modprobe can be disabled by setting: /sys/module/kmod/mod_request_helper (/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe) to an empty string, the same way /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug is disabled on an udev system.

Some uses of kallsyms_lookup() do not need to find out the name of a symbol and its module's name it belongs. This is specially true in arch specific code, which needs to unwind the stack to show the back trace during oops (mips is an example). In this specific case, we just need to retreive the function's size and the offset of the active intruction inside it. Adds a new entry "kallsyms_lookup_size_offset()" This new entry does exactly the same as kallsyms_lookup() but does not require any buffers to store any names. It returns 0 if it fails otherwise 1.

由 Ed Swierk 提交于
Invoking load_module() before param_sysfs_init() is called crashes in mod_sysfs_setup(), since the kset in module_subsys is not initialized yet. In my case, net-pf-1 is getting modprobed as a result of hotplug trying to create a UNIX socket. Calls to hotplug begin after the topology_init initcall. Another patch for the same symptom (module_subsys-initialize-earlier.patch) moves param_sysfs_init() to the subsys initcalls, but this is still not early enough in the boot process in some cases. In particular, topology_init() causes /sbin/hotplug to run, which requests net-pf-1 (the UNIX socket protocol) which can be compiled as a module. Moving param_sysfs_init() to the postcore initcalls fixes this particular race, but there might well be other cases where a usermodehelper causes a module to load earlier still. The patch makes load_module() return an error rather than crashing the kernel if invoked before module_subsys is initialized.
