Subject: [PATCH v3 00/16] Make the user mode driver code a better citizen
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk


This is the third round of my changeset to split the user mode driver
code from the user mode helper code, and to make the code use common
facilities to get things done instead of recreating them just
for the user mode driver code.

I have split the changes into small enough pieces so they should be
easily readable and testable.

The changes lean into the preexisting interfaces in the kernel and
remove special cases for user mode driver code in favor of solutions
that don't need special cases.  This results in smaller code with fewer
bugs.

At a practical level this removes the maintenance burden of the user
mode drivers from the user mode helper code and from exec as the special
cases are removed.

Similarly the LSM interaction bugs are fixed by not having unnecessary
special cases for user mode drivers.

I have tested thes changes by booting with the code compiled in and
by killing "bpfilter_umh" and "running iptables -vnL" to restart
the userspace driver, also by running "while true; do iptables -L;rmmod
bpfilter; done" to verify the module load and unload work properly.

I have compiled tested each change with and without CONFIG_BPFILTER
enabled.

From v2 to v3 I have made two siginficant changes.
- I factored thread_group_exit out of pidfd_poll to allow the test
  to be used by the bpfilter code.
- I renamed umd.c and umd.h to usermode_driver.c and usermode_driver.h
  respectively.

I made a few very small changes from v1 to v2:
- Updated the function name in a comment when the function is renamed
- Moved some more code so that the the !CONFIG_BPFILTER case continues
  to compile when I moved the code into umd.c
- A fix for the module loading case to really flush the file descriptor.
- Removed split_argv entirely from fork_usermode_driver.
  There was nothing to split so it was just confusing.

Please let me know if you see any bugs.  Once the code review is
finished I plan to place the code in a non-rebasing branch
so I can pull it into my tree and so it can also be pulled into
the bpf-next tree.
