git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull first stage of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker: "The two commits here 1) dummy out all the __cpuinit macros so that we no longer generate such sections, and then 2) remove all the section processing that we used to do for those sections. This makes all the __cpuinit and friends no-ops, so that we can remove the use cases of it at our leisure. Expect stage 2, which does the tree wide removal sweep at the end of the merge window." * 'cpuinit-delete' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: modpost: remove all traces of cpuinit/cpuexit sections init.h: remove __cpuinit sections from the kernel

Commit a4b6a77b77ba4f526392612c2365797fab956014 ("module: fix symbol versioning with symbol prefixes") broke the MODVERSIONS loading of any module using memcmp (e.g. ipv6) on x86_32, as it's defined to __builtin_memcmp which is expanded by VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR. Use __VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR instead which doesn't expand the argument.

2013-03-20module: fix symbol versioning with symbol prefixesJames Hogan1-1/+2
Fix symbol versioning on architectures with symbol prefixes. Although the build was free from warnings the actual modules still wouldn't load as the ____versions table contained unprefixed symbol names, which were being compared against the prefixed symbol names when checking the symbol versions. This is fixed by modifying modpost to add the symbol prefix to the ____versions table it outputs (Modules.symvers still contains unprefixed symbol names). The check_modstruct_version() function is also fixed as it checks the version of the unprefixed "module_layout" symbol which would no longer work.

2013-03-15CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup.Rusty Russell1-21/+15
We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string "_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to do so. Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set: 1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym) 3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7) 5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym) 6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX 7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version for pasting. (arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too). Let's solve this properly: 1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm. 3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(). 4) Make everyone use them.

2013-01-21modpost: Ignore ARC specific non-alloc sectionsVineet Gupta1-0/+2
ARC relocatable object files contain one/more .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* sections (collated by kernel/vmlinux.lds into .arcextmap in final link). This section is used by debuggers to display the extension instructions and need-not be loaded by target (hence !SHF_ALLOC) The final kernel binary only needs .arcextmap entry in modpost's ignore list (section_white_list[]). However when building modules, modpost scans each object file individually, hence tripping on non-aggregated .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* entries as well. Thus need for the 2 entires !

Commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o (which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure. [ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the problem, copied from commit 62a2635610db ("modpost: Fix modpost's license checking V3").

2012-02-15ARM: 7324/1: modpost: Fix section warnings for ARM for many compilersTony Lindgren1-0/+9
It turns out that many compilers don't show section warnings on ARM currently because handling for ARM_CALL relocs are missing from modpost.c. Based on commit c2e26114 ([ARM] 3205/1: Handle new EABI relocations when loading kernel modules) it seems that R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL and R_ARM_JUMP24 can be handled the same way. Note that at least Debian libc6-dev is missing defines for both R_ARM_CALL and R_ARM_JUMP24 in /usr/include/elf.h. So for now we need to define them in modpost.c if not defined.

2011-05-19modpost: Update 64k section support for binutils 2.18.50Anders Kaseorg1-10/+6
Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools. Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are stored.

2010-12-28modpost: Fix address calculation in reloc_location()Olof Johansson1-1/+1
This patch fixes a segfault in modpost that is observed when the gold linker is used to link the input objects. The problem is that reloc_location (modpost.c) is computing the address of the relocation target incorrectly. Here, elf->hdr points to the beginning of the ELF file in memory, sechdr points to the relocation section header, section is the index of the section being relocated, and sechdrs[section].sh_offset would be the offset of that section, relative to the beginning of the ELF file. Adding elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset gives you the address of the beginning of the section, and adding r->r_offset to that gives you the address of the location to be relocated. You do not need to subtract sechdrs[section].sh_addr from that -- the result of this is an address outside the file, and causes the segfault when addend_386_rel tries to dereference it. This bug is not observed when GNU ld is used to link the inputs. The object file ubuntu/omnibook/omnibook.o is the result of an ld -r of several other files. When GNU ld does an ld -r, it sets the vaddr field for each section to 0, but gold lays out the section addresses sequentially instead: Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al [ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00 0 0 0 [ 1] .text PROGBITS 00000000 000034 004794 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 2] .data PROGBITS 0000b9d0 0047c8 0009c0 00 WA 0 0 4 [ 3] .bss NOBITS 000162f8 005188 00013c 00 WA 0 0 4 [ 4] .rodata.str1.1 PROGBITS 00004f2d 0052c4 001b1a 01 AMS 0 0 1 [ 5] .init.text PROGBITS 00004794 006dde 0005fa 00 AX 0 0 1 [ 6] .exit.text PROGBITS 00004d8e 0073d8 00018a 00 AX 0 0 1 ...

Ideally, we'd check that it was only the "set" function which was __init, and that the permissions were r/o. But that's a little hard. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Tested-by: Phil Carmody <ext-phil.2.carmody@nokia.com>

2010-08-03modpost: support objects with more than 64k sectionsDenys Vlasenko1-26/+76
This patch makes modpost able to process object files with more than 64k sections. Needed for huge kernel builds (allyesconfig, for example) with -ffunction-sections. 64k sections handling is covered, for example, by this document: "IA-64 gABI Proposal 74: Section Indexes" http://www.codesourcery.com/public/cxx-abi/abi/prop-74-sindex.html Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu> Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

It just hit me. It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows: return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset + (r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr); E.g. for the first rodata r entry: r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something equally wise.
