objtool: Propagate early errors

2023-11-20T10:58:52+00:00

[ Upstream commit e959c279d391c10b35ce300fb4b0fe3b98e86bd2 ] If objtool runs into a problem that causes it to exit early, the overall tool still returns a status code of 0, which causes the build to continue as if nothing went wrong. Note this only affects early errors, as later errors are still ignored by check().

objtool: Remove instruction::list

2023-02-23T08:21:44+00:00

Replace the instruction::list by allocating instructions in arrays of 256 entries and stringing them together by (amortized) find_insn(). This shrinks instruction by 16 bytes and brings it down to 128. struct instruction { - struct list_head list; /* 0 16 */ - struct hlist_node hash; /* 16 16 */ - struct list_head call_node; /* 32 16 */ - struct section * sec; /* 48 8 */ - long unsigned int offset; /* 56 8 */ - /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */ - long unsigned int immediate; /* 64 8 */ - unsigned int len; /* 72 4 */ - u8 type; /* 76 1 */ - - /* Bitfield combined with previous fields */ + struct hlist_node hash; /* 0 16 */ + struct list_head call_node; /* 16 16 */ + struct section * sec; /* 32 8 */ + long unsigned int offset; /* 40 8 */ + long unsigned int immediate; /* 48 8 */ + u8 len; /* 56 1 */ + u8 prev_len; /* 57 1 */ + u8 type; /* 58 1 */ + s8 instr; /* 59 1 */ + u32 idx:8; /* 60: 0 4 */ + u32 dead_end:1; /* 60: 8 4 */ + u32 ignore:1; /* 60: 9 4 */ + u32 ignore_alts:1; /* 60:10 4 */ + u32 hint:1; /* 60:11 4 */ + u32 save:1; /* 60:12 4 */ + u32 restore:1; /* 60:13 4 */ + u32 retpoline_safe:1; /* 60:14 4 */ + u32 noendbr:1; /* 60:15 4 */ + u32 entry:1; /* 60:16 4 */ + u32 visited:4; /* 60:17 4 */ + u32 no_reloc:1; /* 60:21 4 */ - u16 dead_end:1; /* 76: 8 2 */ - u16 ignore:1; /* 76: 9 2 */ - u16 ignore_alts:1; /* 76:10 2 */ - u16 hint:1; /* 76:11 2 */ - u16 save:1; /* 76:12 2 */ - u16 restore:1; /* 76:13 2 */ - u16 retpoline_safe:1; /* 76:14 2 */ - u16 noendbr:1; /* 76:15 2 */ - u16 entry:1; /* 78: 0 2 */ - u16 visited:4; /* 78: 1 2 */ - u16 no_reloc:1; /* 78: 5 2 */ + /* XXX 10 bits hole, try to pack */ - /* XXX 2 bits hole, try to pack */ - /* Bitfield combined with next fields */ - - s8 instr; /* 79 1 */ - struct alt_group * alt_group; /* 80 8 */ - struct instruction * jump_dest; /* 88 8 */ - struct instruction * first_jump_src; /* 96 8 */ + /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */ + struct alt_group * alt_group; /* 64 8 */ + struct instruction * jump_dest; /* 72 8 */ + struct instruction * first_jump_src; /* 80 8 */ union { - struct symbol * _call_dest; /* 104 8 */ - struct reloc * _jump_table; /* 104 8 */ - }; /* 104 8 */ - struct alternative * alts; /* 112 8 */ - struct symbol * sym; /* 120 8 */ - /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */ - struct stack_op * stack_ops; /* 128 8 */ - struct cfi_state * cfi; /* 136 8 */ + struct symbol * _call_dest; /* 88 8 */ + struct reloc * _jump_table; /* 88 8 */ + }; /* 88 8 */ + struct alternative * alts; /* 96 8 */ + struct symbol * sym; /* 104 8 */ + struct stack_op * stack_ops; /* 112 8 */ + struct cfi_state * cfi; /* 120 8 */ - /* size: 144, cachelines: 3, members: 28 */ - /* sum members: 142 */ - /* sum bitfield members: 14 bits, bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 2 bits */ - /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */ + /* size: 128, cachelines: 2, members: 29 */ + /* sum members: 124 */ + /* sum bitfield members: 22 bits, bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 10 bits */ }; pre: 5:38.18 real, 213.25 user, 124.90 sys, 23449040 mem post: 5:03.34 real, 210.75 user, 88.80 sys, 20241232 mem Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor # build only Tested-by: Thomas Weißschuh # compile and run Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230208172245.851307606@infradead.org

objtool: Ditch subcommands

2022-04-22T10:32:01+00:00

Objtool has a fairly singular focus. It runs on object files and does validations and transformations which can be combined in various ways. The subcommand model has never been a good fit, making it awkward to combine and remove options. Remove the "check" and "orc" subcommands in favor of a more traditional cmdline option model. This makes it much more flexible to use, and easier to port individual features to other arches.

objtool: Reorganize cmdline options

2022-04-22T10:32:01+00:00

Split the existing options into two groups: actions, which actually do something; and options, which modify the actions in some way. Also there's no need to have short flags for all the non-action options. Reserve short flags for the more important actions. While at it: - change a few of the short flags to be more intuitive - make option descriptions more consistently descriptive - sort options in the source like they are when printed - move options to a global struct Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Miroslav Benes Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/9dcaa752f83aca24b1b21f0b0eeb28a0c181c0b0.1650300597.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com

objtool: Fix function fallthrough detection for vmlinux

2022-04-19T19:58:53+00:00

Objtool's function fallthrough detection only works on C objects. The distinction between C and assembly objects no longer makes sense with objtool running on vmlinux.o. Now that copy_user_64.S has been fixed up, and an objtool sibling call detection bug has been fixed, the asm code is in "compliance" and this hack is no longer needed. Remove it.

objtool: Fix pv_ops noinstr validation

2021-12-03T08:11:42+00:00

Boris reported that in one of his randconfig builds, objtool got infinitely stuck. Turns out there's trivial list corruption in the pv_ops tracking when a function is both in a static table and in a code assignment. Avoid re-adding function to the pv_ops[] lists when they're already on it.

objtool: Support pv_opsindirect calls for noinstr

2021-09-17T11:20:26+00:00

Normally objtool will now follow indirect calls; there is no need. However, this becomes a problem with noinstr validation; if there's an indirect call from noinstr code, we very much need to know it is to another noinstr function. Luckily there aren't many indirect calls in entry code with the obvious exception of paravirt. As such, noinstr validation didn't work with paravirt kernels. In order to track pv_ops[] call targets, objtool reads the static pv_ops[] tables as well as direct assignments to the pv_ops[] array, provided the compiler makes them a single instruction like: bf87: 48 c7 05 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 movq $0x0,0x0(%rip) bf92 bf8a: R_X86_64_PC32 pv_ops+0x268 There are, as of yet, no warnings for when this goes wrong :/ Using the functions found with the above means, all pv_ops[] calls are now subject to noinstr validation.
