objtool: Fix ".cold" section suffix check for newer versions of GCC

2021-03-04T09:26:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit 34ca59e109bdf69704c33b8eeffaa4c9f71076e5 ] With my version of GCC 9.3.1 the ".cold" subfunctions no longer have a numbered suffix, so the trailing period is no longer there. Presumably this doesn't yet trigger a user-visible bug since most of the subfunction detection logic is duplicated. I only found it when testing vmlinux.o validation.

objtool: Don't fail on missing symbol table

2021-02-07T14:35:49+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1d489151e9f9d1647110277ff77282fe4d96d09b ] 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.

objtool: Support Clang non-section symbols in ORC generation

2020-11-01T11:01:01+00:00

commit e81e0724432542af8d8c702c31e9d82f57b1ff31 upstream. When compiling the kernel with AS=clang, objtool produces a lot of warnings: warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .text warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .init.text warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .ref.text It then fails to generate the ORC table. The problem is that objtool assumes text section symbols always exist. But the Clang assembler is aggressive about removing them. When generating relocations for the ORC table, objtool always tries to reference instructions by their section symbol offset. If the section symbol doesn't exist, it bails. Do a fallback: when a section symbol isn't available, reference a function symbol instead.

objtool: Fix noreturn detection for ignored functions

2020-10-01T11:18:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit db6c6a0df840e3f52c84cc302cc1a08ba11a4416 ] When a function is annotated with STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD, objtool doesn't validate its code paths. It also skips sibling call detection within the function. But sibling call detection is actually needed for the case where the ignored function doesn't have any return instructions. Otherwise objtool naively marks the function as implicit static noreturn, which affects the reachability of its callers, resulting in "unreachable instruction" warnings. Fix it by just enabling sibling call detection for ignored functions. The 'insn->ignore' check in add_jump_destinations() is no longer needed after e6da9567959e ("objtool: Don't use ignore flag for fake jumps"). Fixes the following warning: arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.o: warning: objtool: vmx_handle_exit_irqoff()+0x142: unreachable instruction which triggers on an allmodconfig with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL unset.

kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVM

2020-08-26T08:40:47+00:00

commit a0d1c951ef08ed24f35129267e3595d86f57f5d3 upstream. As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy. Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an environment variable. Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the integrated assembler, I think we can make it default. We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean flag that switches both target and host tools: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494 https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43 Some items discussed, but not adopted: - LLVM_DIR When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful. CC = $(LLVM_DIR)clang LD = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld ... However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do this. - LLVM_SUFFIX Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with naming conventions that use the version as a suffix. CC = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX) LD = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX) ... will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc., but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

objtool: Fix stack offset tracking for indirect CFAs

2020-05-14T05:58:29+00:00

commit d8dd25a461e4eec7190cb9d66616aceacc5110ad upstream. When the current frame address (CFA) is stored on the stack (i.e., cfa->base == CFI_SP_INDIRECT), objtool neglects to adjust the stack offset when there are subsequent pushes or pops. This results in bad ORC data at the end of the ENTER_IRQ_STACK macro, when it puts the previous stack pointer on the stack and does a subsequent push. This fixes the following unwinder warning: WARNING: can't dereference registers at 00000000f0a6bdba for ip interrupt_entry+0x9f/0xa0 Fixes: 627fce14809b ("objtool: Add ORC unwind table generation") Reported-by: Vince Weaver Reported-by: Dave Jones Reported-by: Steven Rostedt Reported-by: Vegard Nossum Reported-by: Joe Mario Reviewed-by: Miroslav Benes Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Jann Horn Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/853d5d691b29e250333332f09b8e27410b2d9924.1587808742.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

objtool: Support Clang non-section symbols in ORC dump

[ Upstream commit 8782e7cab51b6bf01a5a86471dd82228af1ac185 ] Historically, the relocation symbols for ORC entries have only been section symbols: .text+0: sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:call end:0 However, the Clang assembler is aggressive about stripping section symbols.
