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
