modpost: fix module versioning when a symbol lacks valid CRC

2022-08-25T09:45:35Z

commit 5b8a9a8fd1f0c3d55d407cf759d54ca68798d9ad upstream. Since commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS"), module versioning is broken on some architectures. Loading a module fails with "disagrees about version of symbol module_layout". On such architectures (e.g. ARCH=sparc build with sparc64_defconfig), modpost shows a warning, like follows: WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "_mcount" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. Is "_mcount" prototyped in ? Previously, it was a harmless warning (CRC check was just skipped), but now wrong CRCs are used for comparison because invalid CRCs are just skipped. $ sparc64-linux-gnu-nm -n vmlinux [snip] 0000000000c2cea0 r __ksymtab__kstrtol 0000000000c2ceb8 r __ksymtab__kstrtoul 0000000000c2ced0 r __ksymtab__local_bh_enable 0000000000c2cee8 r __ksymtab__mcount 0000000000c2cf00 r __ksymtab__printk 0000000000c2cf18 r __ksymtab__raw_read_lock 0000000000c2cf30 r __ksymtab__raw_read_lock_bh [snip] 0000000000c53b34 D __crc__kstrtol 0000000000c53b38 D __crc__kstrtoul 0000000000c53b3c D __crc__local_bh_enable 0000000000c53b40 D __crc__printk 0000000000c53b44 D __crc__raw_read_lock 0000000000c53b48 D __crc__raw_read_lock_bh Please notice __crc__mcount is missing here. When the module subsystem looks up a CRC that comes after, it results in reading out a wrong address. For example, when __crc__printk is needed, the module subsystem reads 0xc53b44 instead of 0xc53b40. All CRC entries must be output for correct index accessing. Invalid CRCs will be unused, but are needed to keep the one-to-one mapping between __ksymtab_* and __crc_*. The best is to fix all modpost warnings, but several warnings are still remaining on less popular architectures.

modpost: fix section mismatch check for exported init/exit sections

2022-06-19T23:18:03Z

Since commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols"), EXPORT_SYMBOL* is placed in the individual section ___ksymtab(_gpl)+ (3 leading underscores instead of 2). Since then, modpost cannot detect the bad combination of EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init/__exit. Fix the .fromsec field.

modpost: simplify mod->name allocation

2022-06-04T21:20:57Z

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 Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers

kbuild: check static EXPORT_SYMBOL* by script instead of modpost

2022-06-01T14:07:02Z

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 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.

kbuild: do not create *.prelink.o for Clang LTO or IBT

2022-05-29T09:39:35Z

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. Use $(LD) to merge them into a single ELF object. $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c ---------> foo1.o ---------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko | (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c ---------> foo2.o ----/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor Reviewed-by: Sami Tolvanen Tested-by: Sedat Dilek # LLVM-14 (x86-64) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf

if ((addr - sym->st_value) < distance) { distance = addr - sym->st_value; near = sym; } else if ((addr - sym->st_value) == distance) { near = sym; } is equivalent to: if (addr - sym->st_value <= distance) { distance = addr - sym->st_value; near = sym; } (The else-if block can overwrite 'distance' with the same value).
