Looks like a bug in whatever is creating the initrd as it isn't
including modules necessary for the boot.

It turned out that it is already wrong as of creating modules.dep.

Yes, the generator of modules.dep does not seem to pick up the right
dependency.

Herbert, seems like modules.dep generator wants explicit

+ depends on CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF
But it seems to me like it should have known CRC_T10DIF needs
CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF when we do
select CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF
Your thoughts?
Thanks.

"select" cannot tell /sbin/depmod that there is dependency, for /sbin/depmod
calculates dependency by enumerating symbols in each module rather than by
parsing Kconfig files which depends on "kernel-source_files_installed = y".
Therefore, I think possible solutions are either
(a) built-in the dependent modules
# grep crc /lib/modules/3.11.0-rc1+/modules.dep
kernel/drivers/scsi/sd_mod.ko: kernel/lib/crc-t10dif.ko
kernel/lib/crc-t10dif.ko:
or
(b) embed explicit reference to the dependent module's symbols
# grep crc /lib/modules/3.11.0-rc1+/modules.dep
kernel/arch/x86/crypto/crct10dif-pclmul.ko: kernel/crypto/crct10dif.ko
kernel/crypto/crct10dif.ko:
kernel/drivers/scsi/sd_mod.ko: kernel/lib/crc-t10dif.ko kernel/arch/x86/crypto/crct10dif-pclmul.ko kernel/crypto/crct10dif.ko
kernel/lib/crc-t10dif.ko: kernel/arch/x86/crypto/crct10dif-pclmul.ko kernel/crypto/crct10dif.ko
.
Two patches ((a) and (b) respectively) follow, but I think patch (b) will not
work unless additional change
static int __init crct10dif_intel_mod_init(void)
{
if (x86_match_cpu(crct10dif_cpu_id))
return crypto_register_shash(&alg);
return 0;
}
static void __exit crct10dif_intel_mod_fini(void)
{
if (x86_match_cpu(crct10dif_cpu_id))
crypto_unregister_shash(&alg);
}
is made, for currently crct10dif-pclmul.ko cannot be loaded on
!X86_FEATURE_MATCH(X86_FEATURE_PCLMULQDQ) systems.

Commit 2d31e518 "crypto: crct10dif - Wrap crc_t10dif function all to use crypto

crct10dif.ko". This resulted in boot failure because "sd_mod.ko depends on

Fix this by changing crct10dif.ko and crct10dif-pclmul.ko from "tristate" to
"bool" so that suitable version is chosen.

This approach will increase kernel size for those who are not using
t10dif so some people may object.
BTW, The PCLMULQDQ version does not need to be build in.

crct10dif-pclmul.ko should not be loaded if
X86_FEATURE_PCLMULQDQ is not supported.
The module needs the cpu to have support for PCLMULQDQ.

sd_mod.ko must choose one from versions available as of loading sd_mod.ko.
Although it is not needed to built-in the PCLMULQDQ version for fixing the boot
failure, it is needed to built-in the PCLMULQDQ version for getting performance
improvement when PCLMULQDQ is supported.

The following code in crct10dif-pclmul_glue.c
static const struct x86_cpu_id crct10dif_cpu_id[] = {
X86_FEATURE_MATCH(X86_FEATURE_PCLMULQDQ),
{}
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, crct10dif_cpu_id);
will put the module in the device table and get the module
loaded, as long as the cpu support PCLMULQDQ. So we should be able
to benefit.

The code in crct10dif transform allocation:
crct10dif_tfm = crypto_alloc_shash("crct10dif", 0, 0)
will allocate a t10dif crypto transform with highest priority.
So as long as the crct10dif.ko and crct10dif-pclmul.ko are loaded,
the pclmulqdq t10dif will have a higher priority and get allocated
and used.
Thanks.

Excuse me, how can crct10dif-pclmul.ko get loaded automatically?
Did you test CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=m with below debug message?

As far as I tested, crct10dif-pclmul.ko will not be loaded unless manually
adding "modprobe crct10dif-pclmul" to initramfs's /init or choosing
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=y.

What I'm talking are
(1) Since mkinitramfs is unable to know that crct10dif-pclmul.ko has higher
priority than crct10dif.ko , mkinitramfs will not include
"modprobe crct10dif-pclmul" line in the generated initramfs.
(2) In order to get benefit from PCLMULQDQ, users have to manually make sure
that "modprobe crct10dif-pclmul" is called before crc-t10dif.ko (which is
loaded before sd_mod.ko is loaded) is loaded by their initramfs's /init
script.
(3) The cause of (1) is that crct10dif-pclmul.ko will not be loaded
automatically unless choosing CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=y.
(4) The cause of (3) is that modules.dep does not describe that users will
benefit by loading crct10dif-pclmul.ko before loading crc-t10dif.ko .
(5) Currently crct10dif-pclmul.ko cannot be loaded if PCLMULQDQ is not
supported. This leads to boot failure (since sd_mod.ko cannot be loaded)
if modules.dep says that "crct10dif-pclmul.ko is required by
crc-t10dif.ko".
(6) To solve (4) and (5), modules.dep should say "crct10dif-pclmul.ko is
preferred for crc-t10dif.ko but is not required by crc-t10dif.ko".
But there is no such mechanism. Thus, currently available choice is
"allow loading crct10dif-pclmul.ko even if PCLMULQDQ is not supported"
or "ignore errors by built-in the crct10dif-pclmul.ko module".
My patch (b) seems to be complicated but is required in order to solve (4)
without asking users to manually add "modprobe crct10dif-pclmul" into their
initramfs. If we choose patch (b) rather than patch (a), we need to solve (5).

The code:
static const struct x86_cpu_id crct10dif_cpu_id[] = {
X86_FEATURE_MATCH(X86_FEATURE_PCLMULQDQ),
{}
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, crct10dif_cpu_id);
causes the following line to be added to modules.alias file:
alias x86cpu:vendor:*:family:*:model:*:feature:*0081* crct10dif_pclmul
This should cause udev to load the crct10dif_pclml module when cpu
support the PCLMULQDQ (feature code 0081). I did my testing during
development on 3.10 and the module was indeed loaded.
However, I found that the following commit under 3.11-rc1 broke
the mechanism after some bisection.
commit ac212b6980d8d5eda705864fc5a8ecddc6d6eacc
Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <[email protected]>
Date: Fri May 3 00:26:22 2013 +0200
ACPI / processor: Use common hotplug infrastructure
Split the ACPI processor driver into two parts, one that is
non-modular, resides in the ACPI core and handles the enumeration
and hotplug of processors and one that implements the rest of the
existing processor driver functionality.
Rafael, can you check and see if this can be fixed so those optimized
crypto modules for Intel cpu that support them can be loaded?
Herbert, we had a discussion earlier on a separate issue regarding the
module load order. We wanted to load all supported crypto t10dif modules
before the crc-t10dif module. You mentioned that the MODULE_ALIAS also
need some fixing and wonder if those changes have been merged into
3.11-rc1? See https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/21/216 . Theoretically, that
fix should also get all the crypto modules support t10dif be loaded.
Thanks.

I think this is an ordering issue between udev startup and the time when
devices are registered.
I wonder what happens if you put those modules into the initramfs image?

OK, this bothers me on some pretty deep level... a set of changes
exclusively in drivers/acpi breaking functionality which had nothing to
do with ACPI, specifically CPU-feature-based module loading.
Please let me know what the investigation comes up with, or if I need to
get more directly involved.

Well, they are not exclusively in drivers/acpi, they are in drivers/base/cpu.c
too and that most likely is the responsible part.

I'm sure it can be fixes, but I'm not sure whether it's a udev bug or real
breakage in the kernel yet. I need to figure out that part.

No, you shouldn't need to modify any files, just please try to make your
mkinitrd (or whatever else you use) put the modules you'd like to be
autoloaded into the image.
That's only something I'd like to know at this point, though, not a
"workaround" or something like that.

Rafael, the patch did fix the cpu feature based module loading issue.
Thanks for your quick response.
Herbert, the patch below should fix the boot failure issue.
I also added the change to rename crct10dif.c to crct10dif_generic.c
and added MODULE_ALIAS(crct10dif) to crct10dif_generic.c.
This was according to our discussion:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/21/216
However, when I have the
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=m
CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=y
combination, the crc-t10dif library function was still
initialized before the crct10dif-pclmul.ko was loaded,
leading to the generic version being used. This
is also one of Tetsuo's concerns. In theory, loading
the generic version should also load the pclmul version as
they have the same MODULE_ALIAS, before crc-t10dif library
try to allocate the crypto transform.
Something else that I'm missing and need to be changed?
I will be away for a week without internet access so my
response will be slow.
Thanks.

Fix boot failure as crc-t10dif library may not cause crct10dif.ko
containing the generic algorithm to be loaded.
Rename crct10dif.c to crct10dif_generic.c and add module alias.
This should load all the modules supporting crct10dif algorithm
at the same time.

Alas, this is not the one I'd like to apply.
With that patch applied, new device objects are created to avoid binding the
processor driver directly to the cpu system device objects, because that
apparently confuses udev and it starts to ignore the cpu modalias once the
driver has been bound to any of those objects.
I've verified in the meantime that this indeed is the case.
A link to the patch in question: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2830561/
Greg, I asked you some time ago whether or not it was possible for udev to stop
autoloading modules that matched the cpu modalias after a driver had been bound
to the cpu system device objects and you said "no". However, this time I can
say with certainty that that really is the case. So, the question now is
whether or not we can do anything in the kernel to avoid that confusion in udev
instead of applying the patch linked above (which is beyond ugly in my not so
humble opinion)?

udev isn't doing any module loading, 'modprobe' is just being called for
any new module alias that shows up in the system, and all of the drivers
that match it then get loaded.
How is it a problem if a module is attempted to be loaded that is
already loaded? How is it a problem if a different module is loaded for
a device already bound to a driver? Both of those should be total
"no-ops" for the kernel.
But, I don't know anything about the cpu code, how is loading a module
causing problems? That sounds like it needs to be fixes, as any root
user can load modules whenever they want, you can't protect the kernel
from doing that.

The issue here seems to be the dynamic binding nature of the crypto
subsystem. When something needs crypto, it will request the appropriate
crypto module (e.g. crct10dif), which may race with detecting a specific
hardware accelerator based on CPUID or device information (e.g.
crct10dif_pclmul).
RAID has effectively the same issue, and we just "solved" it by
compiling in all the accelerators into the top-level module.

I think for crypto the simplest solution is to not do CPUID-based
loading. Then crypto users will simply load the module alias which
causes modprobe to load all modules providing that alias.

Then there's nothing to be done in udev or kmod, right?

I've tried the module alias approach (see my earlier mail with patch)
but it didn't seem to load things properly. Can you check to see if
there's anything I did incorrectly.

The problem is that that doesn't happen when a driver is bound to the
cpu system device objects. modprobe is just not called for modules that
match the cpu modalias in that case.
If I call modprobe manually for any of the modules in question, it loads
and works no problem.

Precisely, but that's not what happens in practice, hence my question.
The situation is this:
- With 3.11-rc1 modules that match the CPU modalias are not loaded
automatically (that is, modprobe is not called for them by udev) after
the processor module is loaded.
- With 3.10 they are loaded automatically at any time.
- With the patch at https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2830561/ on top of
3.11-rc1 the situation is the same as for 3.10.
Therefore we have a kernel regression from 3.10 (with respect to the existing
user space which is udev) in 3.11-rc1 3.10 and the patch at
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2830561/ makes that regression go away.
However, that patch is totally voodoo programming, so I wonder if there is any
saner alternative or we really need to do voodoo programming in the kernel to
work around udev's confusion.

Yes, that needs to be fixed, but I don't know *why* it is a problem in the
first place. I'd like to understand what's going on, because I don't
right now.

I fixed a missing request_module statement in crct10dif library.
So now things work if I have the following config:
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF=m
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=m
CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=m
However, when I have the library and generic algorithm compiled in,
I do not see the PCLMULQDQ version loaded.
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=m
CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=y
Perhaps I am initiating the crct10dif library at a really early
stage when things are compiled in, where the module is not in
initramfs? In that case, perhaps we should only allow
PCLMUL version to be compiled in
and not exist as a module?
Here's the patch I tried:

I think that use of request_module("crct10dif") does not help loading
crct10dif-pclmul.ko when CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=y CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=m ,
for there is no / directory (note that the initramfs is not yet mounted as /
for loading modules which are not in vmlinux) when any module_init() functions
which are in vmlinux are called.

OK, I know what's up. udev has no rule that would allow it to load stuff on
the basis of MODALIAS if DRIVER is set in the event properties.
So, the following rule needs to be added to udev rules for things to work
as before:
DRIVER=="processor", ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", IMPORT{builtin}="kmod load $env{MODALIAS}"
To be precise, I added a file called 80-drivers.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/
with the following contents:
ACTION=="remove", GOTO="drivers_end"
DRIVER=="processor", ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", IMPORT{builtin}="kmod load $env{MODALIAS}"
LABEL="drivers_end"
but I'm not sure how to propagate this to the udev maintainers.

That is completely expected. I don't really think we need to
do anything about this case. After all, if the admin wants to
use the optimised version for CRC_T10DIF then they could simply
compile that in as well.

Wow! ;-)
But I'd expect something like
static int __init crc_t10dif_mod_init(void)
{
+#if !defined(CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF_MODULE) && defined(CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL_MODULE)
+ printk(KERN_WARNING "Consider CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=y for better performance\n");
+#endif
crct10dif_tfm = crypto_alloc_shash("crct10dif", 0, 0);
return PTR_RET(crct10dif_tfm);
}
because the admin might not be aware of this implication.

Well, that wasn't a good idea, because the original 80-drivers.rules didn't
work then, but I renamed the new file (in /etc/udev/rules.d/) to 80-cpu.rules
and put this line (alone) into it:
ACTION="add", SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", IMPORT{builtin}="kmod load $env{MODALIAS}"
After that change everything works happily again.

I made a mistake in the above, which should be:

In the initramfs, crc-t10dif.ko is included but crct10dif.ko and
crct10dif-pclmul.ko are not included. This is because modules.dep does not
describe that crc-t10dif.ko depends on crct10dif.ko and optionally depends
on crct10dif-pclmul.ko .

dracut-004-303.el6 / gcc-4.4.7-3.el6 and there is no modules.softdep file.
Did commit 7cb14ba7 "modules: add support for soft module dependencies"
silently introduced dependency on module-init-tools which can generate
modules.softdep file ( module-init-tools >= 3.11 ) ?
Kernel config is at http://I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp/tmp/config-3.12-rc1-modules .

OK, can you please try this patch on top of the current tree?
This way at least you'll have a working system until your initramfs
tool is fixed to do the right thing.

Thank you. But it is module-init-tools-3.9-21.el6_4 in RHEL 6.4.
We can't wait until Red Hat backports module-init-tools >= 3.11 to RHEL 6.x.
Since most people are already using module-init-tools >= 3.11 and
there is workaround for my case (i.e. choose built-in), just updating
module-init-tools 0.9.10 # depmod -V
line at "Current Minimal Requirements" in Documentation/Changes will be OK.
Regards.

The trouble is not all distros will include the softdep modules in
the initramfs. So for now I think we will have to live with a fallback.

I see.

I tested the patch and confirmed that the boot failure was solved.
But arch/x86/crypto/crct10dif-pclmul.ko is not included into initramfs and
therefore we cannot benefit from PCLMULQDQ version.

That is expected and is also the status quo. So once the initrd
generation tool is fixed to include softdeps it will work properly.
Thanks!

Thanks for the help, I can confirm that with Herbet's patch applied I am
now booting fine on Debian using
CONFIG_SCSI=Y
CONFIG_ATA=M
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=M
on both an x86-64 (AMD Athlon64) machine with SATA boot disk and an i386
(Pentium 4) machine with PATA boot disk.
Regards,
Arthur.

I would like to report that I also have the same boot problem on a
RHEL6.4 box with the crypto patch. My workaround is to force kernel
build to have the crc_t10dif code built-in by changing the config file:
4889c4889
< CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF=m
---
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF=y
5002c5002
< CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=m
---
> CONFIG_CRC_T10DIF=y
This solved the boot problem without any additional patch. Do you think
you should consider changing the configuration default to "y" instead of
"m" or doesn't allow the "m" option at all?
Thanks!

That was proposed but not accepted.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/17/543
You should choose CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL=y in your kernel config
if your CPU supports PCLMULQDQ.
