Subject: [PATCH 1/1] alloc_tag: allocate percpu counters for module tags dynamically
When a module gets unloaded it checks whether any of its tags are still
in use and if so, we keep the memory containing module's allocation tags
alive until all tags are unused. However percpu counters referenced by
the tags are freed by free_module(). This will lead to UAF if the memory
allocated by a module is accessed after module was unloaded. To fix this
we allocate percpu counters for module allocation tags dynamically and
we keep it alive for tags which are still in use after module unloading.
This also removes the requirement of a larger PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE when
memory allocation profiling is enabled because percpu memory for counters
does not need to be reserved anymore.
Fixes: 0db6f8d7820a ("alloc_tag: load module tags into separate contiguous memory")
Reported-by: David Wang <00107082@....com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250516131246.6244-1-00107082@163.com/
