kunit_driver_create() accepts a name for the driver, but does not copy
it, so if that name is either on the stack, or otherwise freed, we end
up with a use-after-free when the driver is cleaned up.

Instead, strdup() the name, and manage it as another KUnit allocation.
As there was no existing kunit_kstrdup(), we add one. Further, add a
kunit_ variant of strdup_const() and kfree_const(), so we don't need to
allocate and manage the string in the majority of cases where it's a
constant.

However, these are inline functions, and is_kernel_rodata() only works
for built-in code. This causes problems in two cases:
- If kunit is built as a module, __{start,end}_rodata is not defined.
- If a kunit test using these functions is built as a module, it will
  suffer the same fate.

This fixes a KASAN splat with overflow.overflow_allocation_test, when
built as a module.

Restrict the is_kernel_rodata() case to when KUnit is built as a module,
which fixes the first case, at the cost of losing the optimisation.

Also, make kunit_{kstrdup,kfree}_const non-inline, so that other modules
using them will not accidentally depend on is_kernel_rodata(). If KUnit
is built-in, they'll benefit from the optimisation, if KUnit is not,
they won't, but the string will be properly duplicated.

can also be used for memory comparisons, enhancing the consistency and

For tests that need to allocate using vm_mmap() (e.g. usercopy and
execve), provide the interface to have the allocation tracked by KUnit
itself. This requires bringing up a placeholder userspace mm.

This combines my earlier attempt at this with Mark Rutland's version[1].

Normally alloc_mm() and arch_pick_mmap_layout() aren't exported for
modules, so export these only for KUnit testing.

This helps identify the location of test faults with opportunistic calls
to _KUNIT_SAVE_LOC().  This can be useful while writing tests or
debugging them.  It is possible to call KUNIT_SUCCESS() to explicit save
last location.

KUnit's assertion macros have variants which accept a printf format
string, to allow tests to specify a more detailed message on failure.
These (and the related KUNIT_FAIL() macro) ultimately wrap the
__kunit_do_failed_assertion() function, which accepted a printf format
specifier, but did not have the __printf attribute, so gcc couldn't warn
on incorrect agruments.

It turns out there were quite a few tests with such incorrect arguments.

Add the __printf() specifier now that we've fixed these errors, to
prevent them from recurring.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
  reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
  self-tests.

  Core &amp; protocols:

   - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
     netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
     time warnings to safeguard against future header changes

     This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
     to 40%

   - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
     usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
     possible leaks

   - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
     source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
     lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
     connections to the same destination

   - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
     structs

   - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
     arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF

   - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
     128KB and namespecifying it

   - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
     RX performances with some common configurations

   - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time

   - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
     request the deletion of matching entries

   - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
     datapath first

   - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
     multicast-like behavior at the TC layer

   - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
     classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)

   - More data-race annotations

   - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets

   - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions

   - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
     a sub-network using a specific PAN ID

   - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support

   - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type

  BPF:

   - Tons of verifier improvements:
       - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
         test suite
       - log improvements
       - complete precision tracking support for register spills
       - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
         This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
         single digit to 50-60% for some programs
       - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
         commonly requested annotations for a better developer
         experience
       - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
         transforms (unsigned) "a &gt; 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
         like
       - several fixes

   - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
     mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
     now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload

   - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
     kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
     BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y

   - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
     instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
     guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques

   - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs

   - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
     within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
     identified by its id

   - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
     field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
     sched_ext

   - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
     integration for the latter

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
  reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
  self-tests.

  Core &amp; protocols:

   - Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
     netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
     time warnings to safeguard against future header changes

     This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
     to 40%

   - Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
     usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
     possible leaks

   - Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
     source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
     lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
     connections to the same destination

   - Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
     structs

   - Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
     arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF

   - Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
     128KB and namespecifying it

   - Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
     RX performances with some common configurations

   - Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time

   - Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
     request the deletion of matching entries

   - Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
     datapath first

   - Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
     multicast-like behavior at the TC layer

   - Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
     classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)

   - More data-race annotations

   - Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets

   - Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions

   - Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
     a sub-network using a specific PAN ID

   - Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support

   - Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type

  BPF:

   - Tons of verifier improvements:
       - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
         test suite
       - log improvements
       - complete precision tracking support for register spills
       - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
         This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
         single digit to 50-60% for some programs
       - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
         commonly requested annotations for a better developer
         experience
       - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
         transforms (unsigned) "a &gt; 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
         like
       - several fixes

   - Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
     mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
     now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload

   - Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
     kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
     BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y

   - Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
     instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
     guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques

   - Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs

   - Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
     within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
     identified by its id

   - Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
     field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
     sched_ext

   - Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
     integration for the latter

   - Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints

   - Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
     developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)

  Misc:

   - Support for parellel TC self-tests execution

   - Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage

Add NULL checks to KUNIT_BINARY_STR_ASSERTION() so that it will fail
cleanly if either pointer is NULL, instead of causing a NULL pointer
dereference in the strcmp().

A test failure could be that a string is unexpectedly NULL. This could
be trapped by KUNIT_ASSERT_NOT_NULL() but that would terminate the test
at that point. It's preferable that the KUNIT_EXPECT_STR*() macros can
handle NULL pointers as a failure.
