7 * livepatch-shadow-mod.c - Shadow variables, buggy module demo
8 *
9 * Purpose
10 * -------
11 *
12 * As a demonstration of livepatch shadow variable API, this module
13 * introduces memory leak behavior that livepatch modules
14 * livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko and livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko correct and
15 * enhance.
16 *
17 * WARNING - even though the livepatch-shadow-fix modules patch the
18 * memory leak, please load these modules at your own risk -- some
19 * amount of memory may leaked before the bug is patched.
20 *
21 *
22 * Usage
23 * -----
24 *
25 * Step 1 - Load the buggy demonstration module:
26 *
27 * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-mod.ko
28 *
29 * Watch dmesg output for a few moments to see new dummy being allocated
30 * and a periodic cleanup check. (Note: a small amount of memory is
31 * being leaked.)
32 *
33 *
34 * Step 2 - Load livepatch fix1:
35 *
36 * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.ko
37 *
38 * Continue watching dmesg and note that now livepatch_fix1_dummy_free()
39 * and livepatch_fix1_dummy_alloc() are logging messages about leaked
40 * memory and eventually leaks prevented.
41 *
42 *
43 * Step 3 - Load livepatch fix2 (on top of fix1):
44 *
45 * insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix2.ko
46 *
47 * This module extends functionality through shadow variables, as a new
48 * "check" counter is added to the dummy structure. Periodic dmesg
49 * messages will log these as dummies are cleaned up.
50 *
51 *
52 * Step 4 - Cleanup
53 *
54 * Unwind the demonstration by disabling the livepatch fix modules, then
55 * removing them and the demo module:
56 *
57 * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix2/enabled
58 * echo 0 > /sys/kernel/livepatch/livepatch_shadow_fix1/enabled
59 * rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix2
60 * rmmod livepatch-shadow-fix1
61 * rmmod livepatch-shadow-mod
