2021-04-02objtool: Rework the elf_rebuild_reloc_section() logicPeter Zijlstra1-6/+14
Instead of manually calling elf_rebuild_reloc_section() on sections we've called elf_add_reloc() on, have elf_write() DTRT. This makes it easier to add random relocations in places without carefully tracking when we're done and need to flush what section.

2021-02-17rbtree: Add generic add and find helpersPeter Zijlstra1-62/+11
I've always been bothered by the endless (fragile) boilerplate for rbtree, and I recently wrote some rbtree helpers for objtool and figured I should lift them into the kernel and use them more widely. Provide: partial-order; less() based: - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached total-order; cmp() based: - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first() - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two Inlining and constant propagation should see the compiler inline the whole thing, including the various compare functions.

2021-01-22objtool: Don't fail on missing symbol tableJosh Poimboeuf1-2/+5
Thanks to a recent binutils change which doesn't generate unused symbols, it's now possible for thunk_64.o be completely empty without CONFIG_PREEMPTION: no text, no data, no symbols. We could edit the Makefile to only build that file when CONFIG_PREEMPTION is enabled, but that will likely create confusion if/when the thunks end up getting used by some other code again. Just ignore it and move on.

2021-01-14objtool: Rework header include pathsVasily Gorbik1-3/+3
Currently objtool headers are being included either by their base name or included via ../ from a parent directory. In case of a base name usage: #include "warn.h" #include "arch_elf.h" it does not make it apparent from which directory the file comes from. To make it slightly better, and actually to avoid name clashes some arch specific files have "arch_" suffix. And files from an arch folder have to revert to including via ../ e.g: #include "../../elf.h" With additional architectures support and the code base growth there is a need for clearer headers naming scheme for multiple reasons: 1. to make it instantly obvious where these files come from (objtool itself / objtool arch|generic folders / some other external files), 2. to avoid name clashes of objtool arch specific headers, potential obtool arch generic headers and the system header files (there is /usr/include/elf.h already), 3. to avoid ../ includes and improve code readability. 4. to give a warm fuzzy feeling to developers who are mostly kernel developers and are accustomed to linux kernel headers arranging scheme. Doesn't this make it instantly obvious where are these files come from? #include <objtool/warn.h> #include <arch/elf.h> And doesn't it look nicer to avoid ugly ../ includes? Which also guarantees this is elf.h from the objtool and not /usr/include/elf.h. #include <objtool/elf.h> This patch defines and implements new objtool headers arranging scheme. Which is: - all generic headers go to include/objtool (similar to include/linux) - all arch headers go to arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/arch (to get arch prefix). This is similar to linux arch specific "asm/*" headers but we are not abusing "asm" name and calling it what it is. This also helps to prevent name clashes (arch is not used in system headers or kernel exports). To bring objtool to this state the following things are done: 1. current top level tools/objtool/ headers are moved into include/objtool/ subdirectory, 2. arch specific headers, currently only arch/x86/include/ are moved into arch/x86/include/arch/ and were stripped of "arch_" suffix, 3. new -I$(srctree)/tools/objtool/include include path to make includes like <objtool/warn.h> possible, 4. rewriting file includes, 5. make git not to ignore include/objtool/ subdirectory.

2021-01-14objtool: Don't add empty symbols to the rbtreeJosh Poimboeuf1-0/+7
Building with the Clang assembler shows the following warning: arch/x86/kernel/ftrace_64.o: warning: objtool: missing symbol for insn at offset 0x16 The Clang assembler strips section symbols. That ends up giving objtool's find_func_containing() much more test coverage than normal. Turns out, find_func_containing() doesn't work so well for overlapping symbols: 2: 000000000000000e 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 fgraph_trace 3: 000000000000000f 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 trace 4: 0000000000000000 165 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 __fentry__ 5: 000000000000000e 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 ftrace_stub The zero-length NOTYPE symbols are inside __fentry__(), confusing the rbtree search for any __fentry__() offset coming after a NOTYPE. Try to avoid this problem by not adding zero-length symbols to the rbtree. They're rare and aren't needed in the rbtree anyway. One caveat, this actually might not end up being the right fix. Non-empty overlapping symbols, if they exist, could have the same problem. But that would need bigger changes, let's see if we can get away with the easy fix for now.

2020-12-16objtool: Fix seg fault with Clang non-section symbolsJosh Poimboeuf1-0/+26
The Clang assembler likes to strip section symbols, which means objtool can't reference some text code by its section. This confuses objtool greatly, causing it to seg fault. The fix is similar to what was done before, for ORC reloc generation: e81e07244325 ("objtool: Support Clang non-section symbols in ORC generation") Factor out that code into a common helper and use it for static call reloc generation as well.

Add the inline static call implementation for x86-64. The generated code is identical to the out-of-line case, except we move the trampoline into it's own section. Objtool uses the trampoline naming convention to detect all the call sites. It then annotates those call sites in the .static_call_sites section. During boot (and module init), the call sites are patched to call directly into the destination function. The temporary trampoline is then no longer used.

Also, keep "rela" in the struct because it encodes a specific type of relocation we currently expect. It will eventually turn into a member of an anonymous union when a susequent patch adds implicit addend, or "rel", relocation support.

The symbol index is object wide, not per section, so it makes no sense to have the symbol_hash be part of the section object. By moving it to the elf object we avoid the linear sections iteration. This reduces the runtime of objtool on vmlinux.o from over 3 hours (I gave up) to a few minutes. The defconfig vmlinux.o has around 20k sections.

2018-11-20objtool: Fix segfault in .cold detection with -ffunction-sectionsArtem Savkov1-3/+14
Because find_symbol_by_name() traverses the same lists as read_symbols(), changing sym->name in place without copying it affects the result of find_symbol_by_name(). In the case where a ".cold" function precedes its parent in sec->symbol_list, it can result in a function being considered a parent of itself. This leads to function length being set to 0 and other consequent side-effects including a segfault in add_switch_table(). The effects of this bug are only visible when building with -ffunction-sections in KCFLAGS. Fix by copying the search string instead of modifying it in place.

Starting with GCC 8, a lot of unlikely code was moved out of line to "cold" subfunctions in .text.unlikely. For example, the unlikely bits of: irq_do_set_affinity() are moved out to the following subfunction: irq_do_set_affinity.cold.49() Starting with GCC 9, the numbered suffix has been removed. So in the above example, the cold subfunction is instead: irq_do_set_affinity.cold() Tweak the objtool subfunction detection logic so that it detects both GCC 8 and GCC 9 naming schemes.

2018-09-08objtool: Support per-function rodata sectionsAllan Xavier1-0/+1
Add support for processing switch jump tables in objects with multiple .rodata sections, such as those created by '-ffunction-sections' and '-fdata-sections'. Currently, objtool always looks in .rodata for jump table information, which results in many "sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame" warnings with objects compiled using those flags. The fix is comprised of three parts: 1. Flagging all .rodata sections when importing ELF information for easier checking later. 2. Keeping a reference to the section each relocation is from in order to get the list_head for the other relocations in that section. 3. Finding jump tables by following relocations to .rodata sections, rather than always referencing a single global .rodata section. The patch has been tested without data sections enabled and no differences in the resulting orc unwind information were seen. Note that as objtool adds terminators to end of each .text section the unwind information generated between a function+data sections build and a normal build aren't directly comparable. Manual inspection suggests that objtool is now generating the correct information, or at least making more of an effort to do so than it did previously.

2018-07-02objtool: Support GCC 8 '-fnoreorder-functions'Josh Poimboeuf1-13/+28
Since the following commit: cd77849a69cf ("objtool: Fix GCC 8 cold subfunction detection for aliased functions") ... if the kernel is built with EXTRA_CFLAGS='-fno-reorder-functions', objtool can get stuck in an infinite loop. That flag causes the new GCC 8 cold subfunctions to be placed in .text instead of .text.unlikely. But it also has an unfortunate quirk: in the symbol table, the subfunction (e.g., nmi_panic.cold.7) is nested inside the parent (nmi_panic). That function overlap confuses objtool, and causes it to get into an infinite loop in next_insn_same_func(). Here's Allan's description of the loop: "Objtool iterates through the instructions in nmi_panic using next_insn_same_func. Once it reaches the end of nmi_panic at 0x534 it jumps to 0x528 as that's the start of nmi_panic.cold.7. However, since the instructions starting at 0x528 are still associated with nmi_panic objtool will get stuck in a loop, continually jumping back to 0x528 after reaching 0x534." Fix it by shortening the length of the parent function so that the functions no longer overlap.
