+stays consistent.
+
+Livepatch has a consistency model which is a hybrid of kGraft and
+kpatch: it uses kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier
+switching combined with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also
+a number of fallback options which make it quite flexible.
+
+Patches are applied on a per-task basis, when the task is deemed safe to
+switch over. When a patch is enabled, livepatch enters into a
+transition state where tasks are converging to the patched state.
+Usually this transition state can complete in a few seconds. The same
+sequence occurs when a patch is disabled, except the tasks converge from
+the patched state to the unpatched state.
+
+An interrupt handler inherits the patched state of the task it
+interrupts. The same is true for forked tasks: the child inherits the
+patched state of the parent.
+
+Livepatch uses several complementary approaches to determine when it's
+safe to patch tasks:
+
+1. The first and most effective approach is stack checking of sleeping
+ tasks. If no affected functions are on the stack of a given task,
+ the task is patched. In most cases this will patch most or all of
+ the tasks on the first try. Otherwise it'll keep trying
+ periodically. This option is only available if the architecture has
+ reliable stacks (HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE).
+
+2. The second approach, if needed, is kernel exit switching. A
+ task is switched when it returns to user space from a system call, a
+ user space IRQ, or a signal. It's useful in the following cases:
+
+ a) Patching I/O-bound user tasks which are sleeping on an affected
+ function. In this case you have to send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to
+ force it to exit the kernel and be patched.
+ b) Patching CPU-bound user tasks. If the task is highly CPU-bound
+ then it will get patched the next time it gets interrupted by an
+ IRQ.
+ c) In the future it could be useful for applying patches for
+ architectures which don't yet have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. In
+ this case you would have to signal most of the tasks on the
+ system. However this isn't supported yet because there's
+ currently no way to patch kthreads without
+ HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE.
+
+3. For idle "swapper" tasks, since they don't ever exit the kernel, they
+ instead have a klp_update_patch_state() call in the idle loop which
+ allows them to be patched before the CPU enters the idle state.
+
+ (Note there's not yet such an approach for kthreads.)
+
+All the above approaches may be skipped by setting the 'immediate' flag
+in the 'klp_patch' struct, which will disable per-task consistency and
+patch all tasks immediately. This can be useful if the patch doesn't
+change any function or data semantics. Note that, even with this flag
+set, it's possible that some tasks may still be running with an old
+version of the function, until that function returns.
+
+There's also an 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_func' struct which allows
+you to specify that certain functions in the patch can be applied
+without per-task consistency. This might be useful if you want to patch
+a common function like schedule(), and the function change doesn't need
+consistency but the rest of the patch does.
+
+For architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, the user
+must set patch->immediate which causes all tasks to be patched
+immediately. This option should be used with care, only when the patch
+doesn't change any function or data semantics.
+
+In the future, architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE
+may be allowed to use per-task consistency if we can come up with
+another way to patch kthreads.
+
+The /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/transition file shows whether a patch
+is in transition. Only a single patch (the topmost patch on the stack)
+can be in transition at a given time. A patch can remain in transition
+indefinitely, if any of the tasks are stuck in the initial patch state.
+
+A transition can be reversed and effectively canceled by writing the
+opposite value to the /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/enabled file while
+the transition is in progress. Then all the tasks will attempt to
+converge back to the original patch state.
+
+There's also a /proc/<pid>/patch_state file which can be used to
+determine which tasks are blocking completion of a patching operation.
+If a patch is in transition, this file shows 0 to indicate the task is
+unpatched and 1 to indicate it's patched. Otherwise, if no patch is in
+transition, it shows -1. Any tasks which are blocking the transition
+can be signaled with SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force them to change their
+patched state.
+
+
+3.1 Adding consistency model support to new architectures
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+For adding consistency model support to new architectures, there are a
+few options:
+
+1) Add CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. This means porting objtool, and
+ for non-DWARF unwinders, also making sure there's a way for the stack
+ tracing code to detect interrupts on the stack.
+
+2) Alternatively, ensure that every kthread has a call to
+ klp_update_patch_state() in a safe location. Kthreads are typically
+ in an infinite loop which does some action repeatedly. The safe
+ location to switch the kthread's patch state would be at a designated
+ point in the loop where there are no locks taken and all data
+ structures are in a well-defined state.
+
+ The location is clear when using workqueues or the kthread worker
+ API. These kthreads process independent actions in a generic loop.
+
+ It's much more complicated with kthreads which have a custom loop.
+ There the safe location must be carefully selected on a case-by-case
+ basis.
+
+ In that case, arches without HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE would still be
+ able to use the non-stack-checking parts of the consistency model:
+
+ a) patching user tasks when they cross the kernel/user space
+ boundary; and
+
+ b) patching kthreads and idle tasks at their designated patch points.
+
+ This option isn't as good as option 1 because it requires signaling
+ user tasks and waking kthreads to patch them. But it could still be
+ a good backup option for those architectures which don't have
+ reliable stack traces yet.
+
+In the meantime, patches for such architectures can bypass the
+consistency model by setting klp_patch.immediate to true. This option
+is perfectly fine for patches which don't change the semantics of the
+patched functions. In practice, this is usable for ~90% of security
+fixes. Use of this option also means the patch can't be unloaded after
+it has been disabled.
