2014-10-17ARM: mm: allow text and rodata sections to be read-onlyKees Cook1-0/+19
This introduces CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, making kernel text and rodata read-only. Additionally, this splits rodata from text so that rodata can also be NX, which may lead to wasted memory when aligning to SECTION_SIZE. The read-only areas are made writable during ftrace updates and kexec.

2014-04-23ARM: 8022/1: ftrace: work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONXRabin Vincent1-0/+13
Make ftrace work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX by making module text writable around the place where ftrace does its work, like it is done on x86 in the patch which introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, 84e1c6bb38eb ("x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules").

2014-03-07ftrace: Do not pass data to ftrace_dyn_arch_initJiri Slaby1-1/+1
As the data parameter is not really used by any ftrace_dyn_arch_init, remove that from ftrace_dyn_arch_init. This also removes the addr local variable from ftrace_init which is now unused. Note the documentation was imprecise as it did not suggest to set (*data) to 0.

2014-03-07ftrace: Pass retval through return in ftrace_dyn_arch_init()Jiri Slaby1-2/+0
No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against zero. Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on all archs.

Commit 722b3c74695377d11d18a52f3da08114d37f3f37 modified x86 ftrace to avoid tracing all functions called from irqs when function graph was used with a filter. Port the same fix to ARM.

2012-03-24ARM: 7330/1: ftrace: use canonical Thumb-2 wide instruction formatRabin Vincent1-2/+11
As commit 592201a9f15 (ARM: Thumb-2: Support Thumb-2 in undefined instruction handler) says: 32-bit Thumb instructions are specified in the form: ((first_half << 16 ) | second_half) which matches the layout used by the ARM ARM. Convert the ftrace code to use the same format to avoid the usage of different formats in kernel code.

2012-03-24ARM: 7351/1: ftrace: remove useless memory checksRabin Vincent1-14/+14
Before replacing an instruction, the ftrace code determines what the old instruction should be and verifies that that's what's really there in memory before replacing it. This is useful if for example a bug in mcountrecord causes it to record wrong locations. However, in cases where we replace call sites in entry-common.S, these checks are not needed. For these, we currently just memcpy() the memory content and then "verify" it -- this is quite useless and can be removed.

2010-09-02ARM: 6318/1: ftrace: fix and update dynamic ftraceRabin Vincent1-48/+107
This adds mcount recording and updates dynamic ftrace for ARM to work with the new ftrace dyamic tracing implementation. It also adds support for the mcount format used by newer ARM compilers. With dynamic tracing, mcount() is implemented as a nop. Callsites are patched on startup with nops, and dynamically patched to call to the ftrace_caller() routine as needed.

2010-04-21ARM: fix build error in arch/arm/kernel/process.cRussell King1-4/+4
/tmp/ccJ3ssZW.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccJ3ssZW.s:1952: Error: can't resolve `.text' {.text section} - `.LFB1077' This is caused because: .section .data .section .text .section .text .previous does not return us to the .text section, but the .data section; this makes use of .previous dangerous if the ordering of previous sections is not known. Fix up the other users of .previous; .pushsection and .popsection are a safer pairing to use than .section and .previous. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2008-06-24ftrace: store mcount address in rec->ipAbhishek Sagar1-9/+7
Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.
