[ Upstream commit 25a21fbb934a0d989e1858f83c2ddf4cfb2ebe30 ]

With GCOV_PROFILE_ALL, Clang injects __llvm_gcov_* functions to each
object file, including the *.mod.o. As we filter out CC_FLAGS_CFI
for *.mod.o, the compiler won't generate type hashes for the
injected functions, and therefore indirectly calling them during
module loading trips indirect call checking.

Enabling CFI for *.mod.o isn't sufficient to fix this issue after
commit 0c3e806ec0f9 ("x86/cfi: Add boot time hash randomization"),
as *.mod.o aren't processed by objtool, which means any hashes
emitted there won't be randomized. Therefore, in addition to
disabling CFI for *.mod.o, also disable GCOV, as the object files
don't otherwise contain any executable code.

[ Upstream commit 56a24b8ce6a7f9c4a21b2276a8644f6f3d8fc14d ]

addend_arm_rel() processes R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL, R_ARM_JUMP24 in a
wrong way.

Here, test code.

[test code for R_ARM_JUMP24]

  .section .init.text,"ax"
  bar:
          bx      lr

  .section .text,"ax"
  .globl foo
  foo:
          b       bar

[test code for R_ARM_CALL]

  .section .init.text,"ax"
  bar:
          bx      lr

  .section .text,"ax"
  .globl foo
  foo:
          push    {lr}
          bl      bar
          pop     {pc}

If you compile it with ARM multi_v7_defconfig, modpost will show the
symbol name, (unknown).

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: foo (section: .text) -&gt; (unknown) (section: .init.text)

(You need to use GNU linker instead of LLD to reproduce it.)

Fix the code to make modpost show the correct symbol name.

I imported (with adjustment) sign_extend32() from include/linux/bitops.h.

The '+8' is the compensation for pc-relative instruction. It is
documented in "ELF for the Arm Architecture" [1].

  "If the relocation is pc-relative then compensation for the PC bias
  (the PC value is 8 bytes ahead of the executing instruction in Arm
  state and 4 bytes in Thumb state) must be encoded in the relocation
  by the object producer."

[ Upstream commit b7c63520f6703a25eebb4f8138fed764fcae1c6f ]

addend_arm_rel() processes R_ARM_ABS32 in a wrong way.

Here, test code.

  [test code 1]

    #include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;

    int __initdata foo;
    int get_foo(void) { return foo; }

If you compile it with ARM versatile_defconfig, modpost will show the
symbol name, (unknown).

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_foo (section: .text) -&gt; (unknown) (section: .init.data)

(You need to use GNU linker instead of LLD to reproduce it.)

If you compile it for other architectures, modpost will show the correct
symbol name.

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_foo (section: .text) -&gt; foo (section: .init.data)

For R_ARM_ABS32, addend_arm_rel() sets r-&gt;r_addend to a wrong value.

I just mimicked the code in arch/arm/kernel/module.c.

However, there is more difficulty for ARM.

Here, test code.

  [test code 2]

    #include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;

    int __initdata foo;
    int get_foo(void) { return foo; }

    int __initdata bar;
    int get_bar(void) { return bar; }

With this commit applied, modpost will show the following messages
for ARM versatile_defconfig:

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_foo (section: .text) -&gt; foo (section: .init.data)
  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: get_bar (section: .text) -&gt; foo (section: .init.data)

The reference from 'get_bar' to 'foo' seems wrong.

I have no solution for this because it is true in assembly level.

In the following output, relocation at 0x1c is no longer associated
with 'bar'. The two relocation entries point to the same symbol, and
the offset to 'bar' is encoded in the instruction 'r0, [r3, #4]'.

  Disassembly of section .text:

  00000000 &lt;get_foo&gt;:
     0: e59f3004          ldr     r3, [pc, #4]   @ c &lt;get_foo+0xc&gt;
     4: e5930000          ldr     r0, [r3]
     8: e12fff1e          bx      lr
     c: 00000000          .word   0x00000000

  00000010 &lt;get_bar&gt;:
    10: e59f3004          ldr     r3, [pc, #4]   @ 1c &lt;get_bar+0xc&gt;
    14: e5930004          ldr     r0, [r3, #4]
    18: e12fff1e          bx      lr
    1c: 00000000          .word   0x00000000

  Relocation section '.rel.text' at offset 0x244 contains 2 entries:
   Offset     Info    Type            Sym.Value  Sym. Name
  0000000c  00000c02 R_ARM_ABS32       00000000   .init.data
  0000001c  00000c02 R_ARM_ABS32       00000000   .init.data

When find_elf_symbol() gets into a situation where relsym-&gt;st_name is
zero, there is no guarantee to get the symbol name as written in C.

I am keeping the current logic because it is useful in many architectures,
but the symbol name is not always correct depending on the optimization.
I left some comments in find_tosym().

<title>modpost: remove broken calculation of exception_table_entry size</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d0acc76a49aa917c1a455d11d32d34a01e8b2835 ]

find_extable_entry_size() is completely broken. It has awesome comments
about how to calculate sizeof(struct exception_table_entry).

It was based on these assumptions:

  - struct exception_table_entry has two fields
  - both of the fields have the same size

Then, we came up with this equation:

  (offset of the second field) * 2 == (size of struct)

It was true for all architectures when commit 52dc0595d540 ("modpost:
handle relocations mismatch in __ex_table.") was applied.

Our mathematics broke when commit 548acf19234d ("x86/mm: Expand the
exception table logic to allow new handling options") introduced the
third field.

Now, the definition of exception_table_entry is highly arch-dependent.

For x86, sizeof(struct exception_table_entry) is apparently 12, but
find_extable_entry_size() sets extable_entry_size to 8.

I could fix it, but I do not see much value in this code.

extable_entry_size is used just for selecting a slightly different
error message.

If the first field ("insn") references to a non-executable section,

    The relocation at %s+0x%lx references
    section "%s" which is not executable, IOW
    it is not possible for the kernel to fault
    at that address.  Something is seriously wrong
    and should be fixed.

If the second field ("fixup") references to a non-executable section,

    The relocation at %s+0x%lx references
    section "%s" which is not executable, IOW
    the kernel will fault if it ever tries to
    jump to it.  Something is seriously wrong
    and should be fixed.

Merge the two error messages rather than adding even more complexity.

Change fatal() to error() to make it continue running and catch more
possible errors.

<title>scripts/tags.sh: Resolve gtags empty index generation</title>
<updated>2023-07-05T17:27:38Z</updated>

<id>urn:sha1:c437b26bc3ae511521c1d4884c13b36bb292dce6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit e1b37563caffc410bb4b55f153ccb14dede66815 upstream.

gtags considers any file outside of its current working directory
"outside the source tree" and refuses to index it. For O= kernel builds,
or when "make" is invoked from a directory other then the kernel source
tree, gtags ignores the entire kernel source and generates an empty
index.

Force-set gtags current working directory to the kernel source tree.

Due to commit 9da0763bdd82 ("kbuild: Use relative path when building in
a subdir of the source tree"), if the kernel build is done in a
sub-directory of the kernel source tree, the kernel Makefile will set
the kernel's $srctree to ".." for shorter compile-time and run-time
warnings. Consequently, the list of files to be indexed will be in the
"../*" form, rendering all such paths invalid once gtags switches to the
kernel source tree as its current working directory.

If gtags indexing is requested and the build directory is not the kernel
source tree, index all files in absolute-path form.

Note, indexing in absolute-path form will not affect the generated
index, as paths in gtags indices are always relative to the gtags "root
directory" anyway (as evidenced by "gtags --dump").

<content type='text'>
commit d5c8d6e0fa61401a729e9eb6a9c7077b2d3aebb0 upstream.

as-instr uses KBUILD_AFLAGS, but as-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS. This can
cause as-option to fail unexpectedly when CONFIG_WERROR is set, because
clang will emit -Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument for various -m
and -f flags in KBUILD_CFLAGS for assembler sources.

Callers of as-option and as-instr should be adding flags to
KBUILD_AFLAGS / aflags-y, not KBUILD_CFLAGS / cflags-y. Use
KBUILD_AFLAGS in all macros to clear up the initial problem.

Unfortunately, -Wunused-command-line-argument can still be triggered
with clang by the presence of warning flags or macro definitions because
'-x assembler' is used, instead of '-x assembler-with-cpp', which will
consume these flags. Switch to '-x assembler-with-cpp' in places where
'-x assembler' is used, as the compiler is always used as the driver for
out of line assembler sources in the kernel.

Finally, add -Werror to these macros so that they behave consistently
whether or not CONFIG_WERROR is set.

[nathan: Reworded and expanded on problems in commit message
         Use '-x assembler-with-cpp' in a couple more places]
