[ Upstream commit 7170cf47d16f1ba29eca07fd818870b7af0a93a5 ]

The .alternatives section can contain entries with no original
instructions. Objtool will currently crash when handling such an entry.

Just skip that entry, but still give a warning to discourage useless
entries.

commit d8dd25a461e4eec7190cb9d66616aceacc5110ad upstream.

When the current frame address (CFA) is stored on the stack (i.e.,
cfa-&gt;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

[ Upstream commit bd841d6154f5f41f8a32d3c1b0bc229e326e640a ]

CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP causes GCC to emit a UD2 whenever it encounters an
unreachable code path.  This includes __builtin_unreachable().  Because
the BUG() macro uses __builtin_unreachable() after it emits its own UD2,
this results in a double UD2.  In this case objtool rightfully detects
that the second UD2 is unreachable:

  init/main.o: warning: objtool: repair_env_string()+0x1c8: unreachable instruction

We weren't able to figure out a way to get rid of the double UD2s, so
just silence the warning.

commit b401efc120a399dfda1f4d2858a4de365c9b08ef upstream.

If a switch jump table's indirect branch is in a ".cold" subfunction in
.text.unlikely, objtool doesn't detect it, and instead prints a false
warning:

  drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.o: warning: objtool: v4l_print_format.cold()+0xd6: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/hwmon/max6650.o: warning: objtool: max6650_probe.cold()+0xa5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/media/dvb-frontends/drxk_hard.o: warning: objtool: init_drxk.cold()+0x16f: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

Fix it by comparing the function, instead of the section and offset.

<id>urn:sha1:f1a58e1bcad882ea08778320147c7ef9118f704f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4a60aa05a0634241ce17f957bf9fb5ac1eed6576 upstream.

Add support for processing switch jump tables in objects with multiple
.rodata sections, such as those created by '-ffunction-sections' and
'-fdata-sections'.  Currently, objtool always looks in .rodata for jump
table information, which results in many "sibling call from callable
instruction with modified stack frame" warnings with objects compiled
using those flags.

The fix is comprised of three parts:

1. Flagging all .rodata sections when importing ELF information for
   easier checking later.

2. Keeping a reference to the section each relocation is from in order
   to get the list_head for the other relocations in that section.

3. Finding jump tables by following relocations to .rodata sections,
   rather than always referencing a single global .rodata section.

The patch has been tested without data sections enabled and no
differences in the resulting orc unwind information were seen.

Note that as objtool adds terminators to end of each .text section the
unwind information generated between a function+data sections build and
a normal build aren't directly comparable. Manual inspection suggests
that objtool is now generating the correct information, or at least
making more of an effort to do so than it did previously.

<title>objtool: Don't use ignore flag for fake jumps</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e6da9567959e164f82bc81967e0d5b10dee870b4 ]

The ignore flag is set on fake jumps in order to keep
add_jump_destinations() from setting their jump_dest, since it already
got set when the fake jump was created.

But using the ignore flag is a bit of a hack.  It's normally used to
skip validation of an instruction, which doesn't really make sense for
fake jumps.

Also, after the next patch, using the ignore flag for fake jumps can
trigger a false "why am I validating an ignored function?" warning.

Instead just add an explicit check in add_jump_destinations() to skip
fake jumps.

<id>urn:sha1:47265dbd9f7ff8adbf48305676b6b35e759050b2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit e6f393bc939d566ce3def71232d8013de9aaadde upstream.

When a function falls through to the next function due to a compiler
bug, objtool prints some obscure warnings.  For example:

  drivers/regulator/core.o: warning: objtool: regulator_count_voltages()+0x95: return with modified stack frame
  drivers/regulator/core.o: warning: objtool: regulator_count_voltages()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+32 cfa2=7+8

Instead it should be printing:

  drivers/regulator/core.o: warning: objtool: regulator_supply_is_couple() falls through to next function regulator_count_voltages()

This used to work, but was broken by the following commit:

  13810435b9a7 ("objtool: Support GCC 8's cold subfunctions")

The padding nops at the end of a function aren't actually part of the
function, as defined by the symbol table.  So the 'func' variable in
validate_branch() is getting cleared to NULL when a padding nop is
encountered, breaking the fallthrough detection.

If the current instruction doesn't have a function associated with it,
just consider it to be part of the previously detected function by not
overwriting the previous value of 'func'.

commit 0c671812f152b628bd87c0af49da032cc2a2c319 upstream.

Objtool uses over 512k of stack, thanks to the hash table embedded in
the objtool_file struct.  This causes an unnecessarily large stack
allocation and breaks users with low stack limits.

Move the struct off the stack.
