Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] net/sched: Load modules via alias

These modules may be loaded lazily without user's awareness and
control. Add respective aliases to modules and request them under these
aliases so that modprobe's blacklisting mechanism (through aliases)
works for them. (The same pattern exists e.g. for filesystem
modules.)

For example (before the change):
$ tc filter add dev lo parent 1: protocol ip prio 1 handle 10 tcindex ...
# cls_tcindex module is loaded despite a `blacklist cls_tcindex` entry
# in /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf

After the change:
$ tc filter add dev lo parent 1: protocol ip prio 1 handle 10 tcindex ...
Unknown filter "tcindex", hence option "..." is unparsable
# explicit/acknowledged (privileged) action is needed
$ modprobe cls_tcindex
# blacklist entry won't apply to this direct modprobe, module is
# loaded with awareness

A considered alternative was invoking `modprobe -b` always from
request_module(), however, dismissed as too intrusive and slightly
confusing in favor of the precedented aliases (the commit 7f78e0351394
("fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.").

User experience suffers in both alternatives. It's improvement is
orthogonal to blacklist honoring.

Changes from v1 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected])
- Treat sch_ and act_ modules analogously to cls_

Changes from v2 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected])
- reorganized commits (one generated commit + manual pre-/post- work)
- used alias names more fitting the existing net- aliases
- more info in commit messages and cover letter
- rebased on current master

Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] net/sched: Add helper macros with module names

The macros are preparation for adding module aliases en mass in a
separate commit.
Although it would be tempting to create aliases like cls-foo for name
cls_foo, this could not be used because modprobe utilities treat '-' and
'_' interchangeably.
In the end, the naming follows pattern of proto modules in linux/net.h.

Subject: [PATCH v3 3/4] net/sched: Load modules via their alias

The cls_,sch_,act_ modules may be loaded lazily during network
configuration but without user's awareness and control.

Switch the lazy loading from canonical module names to a module alias.
This allows finer control over lazy loading, the precedent from
commit 7f78e0351394 ("fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem
modules.") explains it already:

Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem^W net/sched modules are auto-loaded by editing
/etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives.
Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known
problematic software.

By default, nothing changes. However, if a specific module is
blacklisted (its canonical name), it won't be modprobe'd when requested
under its alias (i.e. kernel auto-loading). It would appear as if the
given module was unknown.

The module can still be loaded under its canonical name, which is an
explicit (privileged) user action.

Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] net/sched: Remove aliases of act_xt and sch_clsact

The modules act_ipt and sch_ingress standout among net/sched modules
because they provide multiple act/sch functionalities in a single .ko.
They have aliases to make autoloading work for any of the provided
functionalities.

Since the autoloading was changed to uniformly request any functionality
under its alias, the non-systemic aliases can be removed now (i.e.
assuming the alias were only used to ensure autoloading).

Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] net/sched: Add module aliases for cls_,sch_,act_ modules

No functional change intended, aliases will be used in followup commits.
Note for backporters: you may need to add aliases also for modules that
are already removed in mainline kernel but still in your version.

Patches were generated with the help of Coccinelle scripts like:

cat >scripts/coccinelle/misc/tcf_alias.cocci <<EOD
virtual patch
virtual report

@ haskernel @
@@

@ tcf_has_kind depends on report && haskernel @
identifier ops;
constant K;

static struct tcf_proto_ops ops = {

...
};
+char module_alias = K;
EOD

And analogously for:

static struct tc_action_ops ops = {
.kind = K,

static struct Qdisc_ops ops = {
.id = K,

(Someone familiar would be able to fit those into one .cocci file
without sed post processing.)

I believe something like (untested):

#define TC_CLS_ALIAS_PREFIX "tc-cls-"
#define MODULE_ALIAS_TC_CLS(kind) MODULE_ALIAS(TC_CLS_ALIAS_PREFIX
__stringify(kind))

And then reuse the macro:

request_module(TC_CLS_ALIAS_PREFIX "%s", cls_name);

Would look better. In any case, net-next is currently closed. You will
need to repost once it reopens.

It seems you are also missing a rebase. We recently removed act_ipt :).

## Form letter - net-next-closed

The merge window for v6.8 has begun and we have already posted our pull
request. Therefore net-next is closed for new drivers, features, code
refactoring and optimizations. We are currently accepting bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after January 22nd.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.

See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#development-cycle

Yeah, that would be more systemic without proliferating literal strings.

I see, I rebased only on torvalds/master then (commit de927f6c0b07
("Merge tag 's390-6.8-1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux")).
I'm not familiar with netdev tree, I will post after Jan 22 as
suggested.

Thanks,
Michal
