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().
The following screen shot, of a simple 8vcpu 8 GiB KVM guest 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.

+ * DOC: module debugging statistics overview
+ *
+ * Enabling CONFIG_MODULE_STATS enables module debugging statistics which
+ * are useful to monitor and root cause memory pressure issues with module
+ * loading. These statistics are useful to allow us to improve production
+ * workloads.
+ *
+ * The current module debugging statistics supported help keep track of module
+ * loading failures to enable improvements either for kernel module
+ * auto-loading usage (request_module()) or interactions with userspace.
+ * Statistics are provided to track of all possible failures in the
+ * finit_module() path and memory wasted in this process space. Each of the
+ * failure counters are associated to a type of module loading failure which
+ * is known to incur a certain amount of memory allocation loss. In the worst
+ * case loading a module will fail after a 3 step memory allocation process:
+ *
+ * a) memory allocated with kernel_read_file_from_fd()
+ * b) module decompression processes the file read from
+ * kernel_read_file_from_fd(), and vmap() is used to map
+ * the decompressed module to a new local buffer which represents
+ * a copy of the decompressed module passed from userspace. The buffer
+ * from kernel_read_file_from_fd() is freed right away.
+ * c) layout_and_allocate() allocates space for the final resting
+ * place where we would keep the module if it were to be processed
+ * successfully.
+ *
+ * If a failure occurs after these three different allocations only one
+ * counters will be incremetned with the summation of the lost bytes incurred
+ * during this failure. Likewise, if a module loading failed only after step b)
+ * a separate counter is used and incremented for the bytes lost during both
+ * of those allocations.
+ *
+ * Virtual memory space can be limited, for example on x86 virtual memory size
+ * defaults to 128 MiB. We should strive to limit and avoid wasting virtual
+ * memory allocations when possible. These module dubugging statistics help
+ * to evaluate how much memory is being wasted on bootup due to module loading
+ * failures.
+ *
+ * All counters are designed to be incremental. Atomic counters are used so to
+ * remain simple and avoid delays and deadlocks.

+ * The finit_module() system call incurs heavy virtual memory allocations. In
+ * the worst case an finit_module() system call can end up allocating virtual
+ * memory 3 times:
+ *
+ * 1) kernel_read_file_from_fd() call uses vmalloc()
+ * 2) optional module decompression uses vmap()
+ * 3) layout_and allocate() can use vzalloc() or an arch specific variation of

+ * - without module decompression 2 virtual memory allocation calls

+ * The total amount of wasted virtual memory allocation space during module
+ * loading can be computed by adding the total from the summation:
+ *
+ * * @invalid_kread_bytes +
+ * @invalid_decompress_bytes +
+ * @invalid_mod_becoming_bytes +
+ * @invalid_mod_bytes
+ *
+ * The following debugfs counters are available to inspect module loading
+ * failures:
+ *
+ * * total_mod_size: total bytes ever used by all modules we've dealt with on
+ * this system
+ * * total_text_size: total bytes of the .text and .init.text ELF section
+ * sizes we've dealt with on this system
+ * * invalid_kread_bytes: bytes wasted in failures which happen due to
+ * memory allocations with the initial kernel_read_file_from_fd().
+ * kernel_read_file_from_fd() uses vmalloc() and so these are wasted
+ * vmalloc() memory allocations. These should typically not happen unless
+ * your system is under memory pressure.
+ * * invalid_decompress_bytes: number of bytes wasted due to
+ * memory allocations in the module decompression path that use vmap().
+ * These typically should not happen unless your system is under memory
+ * presssure.
+ * * invalid_mod_becoming_bytes: total number of bytes wasted due to
+ * allocations used to read the kernel module userspace wants us to read
+ * before promote it to be processed to be added to our @modules linked
+ * list. These failures can happen in between between a successul
+ * kernel_read_file_from_fd() call and right before we allocate the our
+ * private memory for the module which would be kept if the module is
+ * successfully loaded. The most common reason for this failure
+ * is when userspace is racing to load a module which it does not yet see
+ * loaded. The first module to succeed in add_unformed_module() will add a
+ * module to our &modules list and subsequent loads of modules with the
+ * same name will error out at the end of early_mod_check(). The check
+ * for module_patient_check_exists() at the end of early_mod_check() was
+ * added to prevent duplicate allocations on layout_and_allocate() for
+ * modules already being processed. These duplicate failed modules are
+ * non-fatal, however they typically are indicative of userspace not seeing
+ * a module in userspace loaded yet and unecessarily trying to load a
+ * module before the kernel even has a chance to begin to process prior
+ * requests. Although duplicate failures can be non-fatal, we should try to
+ * reduce vmalloc() pressure proactively, so ideally after boot this will
+ * be close to as 0 as possible. If module decompression was used we also
+ * add to this counter the cost of the initial kernel_read_file_from_fd()
+ * of the compressed module. If module decompression was not used the
+ * value represents the total wasted allocations in kernel_read_file_from_fd()
+ * calls for these type of failures. These failures can occur because:
+ *
+ * * module_sig_check() - module signature checks
+ * * elf_validity_cache_copy() - some ELF validation issue
+ * * early_mod_check():
+ *
+ * * blacklisting
+ * * failed to rewrite section headers
+ * * version magic
+ * * live patch requirements didn't check out
+ * * the module was detected as being already present
+ *
+ * * invalid_mod_bytes: these are the total number of bytes lost due to
+ * failures after we did all the sanity checks of the module which userspace
+ * passed to us and after our first check that the module is unique. A
+ * module can still fail to load if we detect the module is loaded after we
+ * allocate space for it with layout_and_allocate(), we do this check right
+ * before processing the module as live and run its initialiation routines.
+ * Note that you have a failure of this type it also means the respective
+ * kernel_read_file_from_fd() memory space was also wasted, and so we
+ * increment this counter with twice the size of the module. Additionally
+ * if you used module decompression the size of the compressed module is
+ * also added to this counter.
+ *
+ * * modcount: how many modules we've loaded in our kernel life time
+ * * failed_kreads: how many modules failed due to failed kernel_read_file_from_fd()
+ * * failed_decompress: how many failed module decompression attempts we've had.
+ * These really should not happen unless your compression / decompression
+ * might be broken.
+ * * failed_becoming: how many modules failed after we kernel_read_file_from_fd()
+ * it and before we allocate memory for it with layout_and_allocate(). This
+ * counter is never incremented if you manage to validate the module and
+ * call layout_and_allocate() for it.
+ * * failed_load_modules: how many modules failed once we've allocated our
+ * private space for our module using layout_and_allocate(). These failures
+ * should hopefully mostly be dealt with already. Races in theory could
+ * still exist here, but it would just mean the kernel had started processing
+ * two threads concurrently up to early_mod_check() and then one just one
+ * thread won. These failures are good signs the kernel or userspace is
+ * doing something seriously stupid or that could be improved. We should
+ * strive to fix these, but it is perhaps not easy to fix them.
+ * A recent example are the modules requests incurred for frequency modules,
+ * a separate module request was being issued for each CPU on a system.
