2022-06-05modpost: simplify mod->name allocationMasahiro Yamada
mod->name is set to the ELF filename with the suffix ".o" stripped. The current code calls strdup() and free() to manipulate the string, but a simpler approach is to pass new_module() with the name length subtracted by 2. Also, check if the passed filename ends with ".o" before stripping it. The current code blindly chops the suffix: tmp[strlen(tmp) - 2] = '\0' It will cause buffer under-run if strlen(tmp) < 2; Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>
2022-06-01kbuild: check static EXPORT_SYMBOL* by script instead of modpostMasahiro Yamada
The 'static' specifier and EXPORT_SYMBOL() are an odd combination. Commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions") tried to detect it, but this check has false negatives. Here is the sample code. Makefile: obj-y += foo1.o foo2.o foo1.c: #include <linux/export.h> static void foo(void) {} EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); foo2.c: void foo(void) {} foo1.c exports the static symbol 'foo', but modpost cannot catch it because it is fooled by foo2.c, which has a global symbol with the same name. s->is_static is cleared if a global symbol with the same name is found somewhere, but EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the global symbol do not necessarily belong to the same compilation unit. This check should be done per compilation unit, but I do not know how to do it in modpost. modpost runs against vmlinux.o or modules, which merges multiple objects, then forgets their origin. modpost cannot parse individual objects because they may not be ELF but LLVM IR when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y. Add a simple bash script to parse the output from ${NM}. This works for CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y because llvm-nm can dump symbols of LLVM IR files. Revert 15bfc2348d54.

2022-05-29kbuild: do not create *.prelink.o for Clang LTO or IBTMasahiro Yamada
When CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, additional intermediate *.prelink.o is created for each module. Also, objtool is postponed until LLVM IR is converted to ELF. CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT works in a similar way to postpone objtool until objects are merged together. This commit stops generating *.prelink.o, so the build flow will look similar with/without LTO. The following figures show how the LTO build currently works, and how this commit is changing it. Current build flow ================== [1] single-object module $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo.c --------------------> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko (LLVM IR) (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module $(LD) $(CC) $(AR) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c -----> foo1.o -----> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko | (archive) (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c -----> foo2.o --/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) One confusion is that foo.o in multi-object module is an archive despite of its suffix. New build flow ============== [1] single-object module Since there is only one object, there is no need to keep the LLVM IR. Use $(CC)+$(LD) to generate an ELF object in one build rule. When LTO is disabled, $(LD) is unneeded because $(CC) produces an ELF object. $(CC)+$(LD)+objtool $(LD) foo.c ----------------------------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module Previously, $(AR) was used to combine LLVM IR files into an archive, but there was no technical reason to do so.

The return value of is_arm_mapping_symbol() is unpredictable when "$" is passed in. strchr(3) says: The strchr() and strrchr() functions return a pointer to the matched character or NULL if the character is not found. The terminating null byte is considered part of the string, so that if c is specified as '\0', these functions return a pointer to the terminator.

2022-05-27modpost: fix removing numeric suffixesAlexander Lobakin
With the `-z unique-symbol` linker flag or any similar mechanism, it is possible to trigger the following: ERROR: modpost: "param_set_uint.0" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL The reason is that for now the condition from remove_dot(): if (m && (s[n + m] == '.' || s[n + m] == 0)) which was designed to test if it's a dot or a '\0' after the suffix is never satisfied. This is due to that `s[n + m]` always points to the last digit of a numeric suffix, not on the symbol next to it (from a custom debug print added to modpost): param_set_uint.0, s[n + m] is '0', s[n + m + 1] is '\0' So it's off-by-one and was like that since 2014. Fix this for the sake of any potential upcoming features, but don't bother stable-backporting, as it's well hidden -- apart from that LD flag, it can be triggered only with GCC LTO which never landed upstream.

2022-05-24kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCSMasahiro Yamada
include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_* as a placeholder. Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset to the reference of CRC. It is time to get rid of this complexity. Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs, it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules. Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh. Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before, *.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal. No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not. CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed. Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in objects, but this step is unneeded too.

2022-05-24modpost: extract symbol versions from *.cmd filesMasahiro Yamada
Currently, CONFIG_MODVERSIONS needs extra link to embed the symbol versions into ELF objects. Then, modpost extracts the version CRCs from them. The following figures show how it currently works, and how I am trying to change it. Current implementation ====================== |----------| embed CRC -------------------------->| final | $(CC) $(LD) / |---------| | link for | -----> *.o -------> *.o -->| modpost | | vmlinux | / / | |-- *.mod.c -->| or | / genksyms / |---------| | module | *.c ------> *.symversions |----------| Genksyms outputs the calculated CRCs in the form of linker script (*.symversions), which is used by $(LD) to update the object. If CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the build process is much more complex. Embedding the CRCs is postponed until the LLVM bitcode is converted into ELF, creating another intermediate *.prelink.o. However, this complexity is unneeded. There is no reason why we must embed version CRCs in objects so early. There is final link stage for vmlinux (scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) and modules (scripts/Makefile.modfinal). We can link CRCs at the very last moment. New implementation ================== |----------| --------------------------------------->| final | $(CC) / |---------| | link for | -----> *.o ---->| | | vmlinux | / | modpost |--- .vmlinux.export.c -->| or | / genksyms | |--- *.mod.c ------------>| module | *.c ------> *.cmd -->|---------| |----------| Pass the symbol versions to modpost as separate text data, which are available in *.cmd files.

2022-05-11modpost: change the license of EXPORT_SYMBOL to bool typeMasahiro Yamada
There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits removed unused ones. - f1c3d73e973c ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE") - 367948220fce ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*") There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know how it was exported". If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an exported symbol. It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined: int __ksymtab_foo; Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either). Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case. With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL). I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true. Only GPL-compatible modules can use it. I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.

Currently, sym_add_exported() does not allocate a symbol if the same name symbol already exists in the hash table. This does not reflect the real use cases. You can let an external module override the in-tree one. In this case, the external module will export the same name symbols as the in-tree one. However, modpost simply ignores those symbols, then Module.symvers for the external module loses its symbols. sym_add_exported() should allocate a new symbol.

This is currently a warning, but I think modpost should stop building in this case. If the same symbol is exported multiple times and we let it keep going, the sanity check becomes difficult. Only the legitimate case is that an external module overrides the corresponding in-tree module to provide a different implementation with the same interface. Also, there exists an upstream example that exploits this feature. $ make M=tools/testing/nvdimm ... builds tools/testing/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko.

Since commit 1d6cd3929360 ("modpost: turn missing MODULE_LICENSE() into error"), unknown module license is an error. The error message, "missing MODULE_LICENSE()" is enough to explain the issue.

It took me a while to understand the intent of "exp->module == mod". This code goes back to 2003. [1] The commit is not in this git repository, and might be worth a little explanation. You can add EXPORT_SYMBOL() without having its definition in the same file (but you need to put a declaration). This is typical when EXPORT_SYMBOL() is added in a C file, but the actual implementation is in a separate assembly file. One example is arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files (but this limitation does not exist any more). If you forget to add the definition, this error occurs. Add a separate, clearer message for this case. It should be an error even if KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN is given.

There are two call sites for sym_update_namespace(). When the symbol has no namespace, s->namespace is set to NULL, but the conversion from "" to NULL is done in two different places. [1] read_symbols() This gets the namespace from __kstrtabns_<symbol>. If the symbol has no namespace, sym_get_data(info, sym) returns the empty string "". namespace_from_kstrtabns() converts it to NULL before it is passed to sym_update_namespace(). [2] read_dump() This gets the namespace from the dump file, *.symvers. If the symbol has no namespace, the 'namespace' is the empty string "", which is directly passed into sym_update_namespace(). The conversion from "" to NULL is done in sym_update_namespace(). namespace_from_kstrtabns() exists only for creating this inconsistency.

2022-03-13Kbuild: use -Wdeclaration-after-statementMark Rutland
The kernel is moving from using `-std=gnu89` to `-std=gnu11`, permitting the use of additional C11 features such as for-loop initial declarations. One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that declarations must come first. These warnings were already enabled in the kernel itself, but not for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses a separate set of CFLAGS. This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS: | scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’: | scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement] | 837 | const char *endp = p + strlen(p) - 1; | | ^~~~~ Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> [arnd: don't add a duplicate flag to the default set, update changelog] Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> # LLVM/Clang v13.0.0 (x86-64) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2022-03-10s390/nospec: add an option to use thunk-externVasily Gorbik
Currently with -mindirect-branch=thunk and -mfunction-return=thunk compiler options expoline thunks are put into individual COMDAT group sections. s390 is the only architecture which has group sections and it has implications for kpatch and objtool tools support. Using -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and -mfunction-return=thunk-extern is an alternative, which comes with a need to generate all required expoline thunks manually. Unfortunately modules area is too far away from the kernel image, and expolines from the kernel image cannon be used. But since all new distributions (except Debian) build kernels for machine generations newer than z10, where "exrl" instruction is available, that leaves only 16 expolines thunks possible. Provide an option to build the kernel with -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and -mfunction-return=thunk-extern for z10 or newer. This also requires to postlink expoline thunks into all modules explicitly. Currently modules already contain most expolines anyhow. Unfortunately -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern and -mfunction-return=thunk-extern options support is broken in gcc <= 11.2. Additional compile test is required to verify proper gcc support.

2022-01-05riscv: switch to relative exception tablesJisheng Zhang
Similar as other architectures such as arm64, x86 and so on, use offsets relative to the exception table entry values rather than absolute addresses for both the exception locationand the fixup. However, RISCV label difference will actually produce two relocations, a pair of R_RISCV_ADD32 and R_RISCV_SUB32. Take below simple code for example: $ cat test.S .section .text 1: nop .section __ex_table,"a" .balign 4 .long (1b - .) .previous $ riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc -c test.S $ riscv64-linux-gnu-readelf -r test.o Relocation section '.rela__ex_table' at offset 0x100 contains 2 entries: Offset Info Type Sym. Value Sym. Name + Addend 000000000000 000600000023 R_RISCV_ADD32 0000000000000000 .L1^B1 + 0 000000000000 000500000027 R_RISCV_SUB32 0000000000000000 .L0 + 0 The modpost will complain the R_RISCV_SUB32 relocation, so we need to patch modpost.c to skip this relocation for .rela__ex_table section. After this patch, the __ex_table section size of defconfig vmlinux is reduced from 7072 Bytes to 3536 Bytes.

2021-09-03modpost: get the *.mod file path more simplyMasahiro Yamada
get_src_version() strips 'o' or 'lto.o' from the end of the object file path (so, postfixlen is 1 or 5), then adds 'mod'. If you look at the code closely, mod->name already holds the base path with the extension stripped. Most of the code changes made by commit 7ac204b545f2 ("modpost: lto: strip .lto from module names") was actually unneeded. sumversion.c does not need strends(), so it can get back local in modpost.c again.

2021-08-15powerpc/bug: Provide better flexibility to WARN_ON/__WARN_FLAGS() with asm gotoChristophe Leroy
Using asm goto in __WARN_FLAGS() and WARN_ON() allows more flexibility to GCC. For that add an entry to the exception table so that program_check_exception() knowns where to resume execution after a WARNING. Here are two exemples. The first one is done on PPC32 (which benefits from the previous patch), the second is on PPC64. unsigned long test(struct pt_regs *regs) { int ret; WARN_ON(regs->msr & MSR_PR); return regs->gpr[3]; } unsigned long test9w(unsigned long a, unsigned long b) { if (WARN_ON(!b)) return 0; return a / b; } Before the patch: 000003a8 <test>: 3a8: 81 23 00 84 lwz r9,132(r3) 3ac: 71 29 40 00 andi. r9,r9,16384 3b0: 40 82 00 0c bne 3bc <test+0x14> 3b4: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3b8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 3bc: 0f e0 00 00 twui r0,0 3c0: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3c4: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000bf0 <.test9w>: bf0: 7c 89 00 74 cntlzd r9,r4 bf4: 79 29 d1 82 rldicl r9,r9,58,6 bf8: 0b 09 00 00 tdnei r9,0 bfc: 2c 24 00 00 cmpdi r4,0 c00: 41 82 00 0c beq c0c <.test9w+0x1c> c04: 7c 63 23 92 divdu r3,r3,r4 c08: 4e 80 00 20 blr c0c: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c10: 4e 80 00 20 blr After the patch: 000003a8 <test>: 3a8: 81 23 00 84 lwz r9,132(r3) 3ac: 71 29 40 00 andi. r9,r9,16384 3b0: 40 82 00 0c bne 3bc <test+0x14> 3b4: 80 63 00 0c lwz r3,12(r3) 3b8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 3bc: 0f e0 00 00 twui r0,0 0000000000000c50 <.test9w>: c50: 7c 89 00 74 cntlzd r9,r4 c54: 79 29 d1 82 rldicl r9,r9,58,6 c58: 0b 09 00 00 tdnei r9,0 c5c: 7c 63 23 92 divdu r3,r3,r4 c60: 4e 80 00 20 blr c70: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c74: 4e 80 00 20 blr In the first exemple, we see GCC doesn't need to duplicate what happens after the trap.

2021-06-17kbuild: modpost: Explicitly warn about unprototyped symbolsMark Brown
One common cause of modpost version generation failures is a failure to prototype exported assembly functions - the tooling requires this for exported functions even if they are not and should not be called from C code in order to do the version mangling for symbols. Unfortunately the error message is currently rather abstruse, simply saying that "version generation failed" and even diving into the code doesn't directly show what's going on since there's several steps between the problem and it being observed. Provide an explicit hint as to the likely cause of a version generation failure to help anyone who runs into this in future more readily diagnose and fix the problem.

2021-04-25kbuild: add an elfnote for whether vmlinux is built with ltoYonghong Song
Currently, clang LTO built vmlinux won't work with pahole. LTO introduced cross-cu dwarf tag references and broke current pahole model which handles one cu as a time. The solution is to merge all cu's as one pahole cu as in [1]. We would like to do this merging only if cross-cu dwarf references happens. The LTO build mode is a pretty good indication for that. In earlier version of this patch ([2]), clang flag -grecord-gcc-switches is proposed to add to compilation flags so pahole could detect "-flto" and then merging cu's. This will increate the binary size of 1% without LTO though. Arnaldo suggested to use a note to indicate the vmlinux is built with LTO. Such a cheap way to get whether the vmlinux is built with LTO or not helps pahole but is also useful for tracing as LTO may inline/delete/demote global functions, promote static functions, etc. So this patch added an elfnote with a new type LINUX_ELFNOTE_LTO_INFO. The owner of the note is "Linux". With gcc 8.4.1 and clang trunk, without LTO, I got $ readelf -n vmlinux Displaying notes found in: .notes Owner Data size Description ... Linux 0x00000004 func description data: 00 00 00 00 ... With "readelf -x ".notes" vmlinux", I can verify the above "func" with type code 0x101. With clang thin-LTO, I got the same as above except the following: description data: 01 00 00 00 which indicates the vmlinux is built with LTO.

2021-04-25kbuild: fix false-positive modpost warning when all symbols are trimmedMasahiro Yamada
Nathan reports that the mips defconfig emits the following warning: WARNING: modpost: Symbol info of vmlinux is missing. Unresolved symbol check will be entirely skipped. This false-positive happens when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, but no CONFIG option is set to 'm'. Commit a0590473c5e6 ("nfs: fix PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT Kconfig default") turned the last 'm' into 'y' for the mips defconfig, and uncovered this issue. In this case, the module feature itself is enabled, but we have no module to build. As a result, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS drops all the instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL. Then, modpost wrongly assumes vmlinux is missing because vmlinux.symvers is empty. (As another false-positive case, you can create a module that does not use any symbol of vmlinux). The current behavior is to entirely suppress the unresolved symbol warnings when vmlinux is missing just because there are too many. I found the origin of this code in the historical git tree. [1] If this is a matter of noisiness, I think modpost can display the first 10 warnings, and the number of suppressed warnings at the end. You will get a bit noisier logs when you run 'make modules' without vmlinux, but such warnings are better to show because you never know the resulting modules are actually loadable or not. This commit changes the following: - If any of input *.symver files is missing, pass -w option to let the module build keep going with warnings instead of errors. - If there are too many (10+) unresolved symbol warnings, show only the first 10, and also the number of suppressed warnings.
