x86, relocs: Ignore relocations in .notes section

2024-03-26T22:21:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit aaa8736370db1a78f0e8434344a484f9fd20be3b ] When building with CONFIG_XEN_PV=y, .text symbols are emitted into the .notes section so that Xen can find the "startup_xen" entry point. This information is used prior to booting the kernel, so relocations are not useful. In fact, performing relocations against the .notes section means that the KASLR base is exposed since /sys/kernel/notes is world-readable. To avoid leaking the KASLR base without breaking unprivileged tools that are expecting to read /sys/kernel/notes, skip performing relocations in the .notes section. The values readable in .notes are then identical to those found in System.map.

x86/tools/relocs: Mark die() with the printf function attr format

2021-08-23T03:58:02+00:00

Mark die() as a function which accepts printf-style arguments so that the compiler can typecheck them against the supplied format string. Use the C99 inttypes.h format specifiers as relocs.c gets built for both 32- and 64-bit.
