objtool: Check local label in add_dead_ends()

2024-03-11T14:23:47Z

When update the latest upstream gcc and binutils, it generates more objtool warnings on LoongArch, like this: init/main.o: warning: objtool: unexpected relocation symbol type in .rela.discard.unreachable We can see that the reloc sym name is local label instead of section in relocation section '.rela.discard.unreachable', in this case, the reloc sym type is STT_NOTYPE instead of STT_SECTION. As suggested by Peter Zijlstra, we add a "local_label" member in struct symbol, then set it as true if symbol type is STT_NOTYPE and symbol name starts with ".L" string in classify_symbols(). Let's check reloc->sym->local_label to not return -1 in add_dead_ends(), and also use reloc->sym->offset instead of reloc addend which is 0 to find the corresponding instruction. At the same time, let's replace the variable "addend" with "offset" to reflect the reality. Here are some detailed info: [fedora@linux 6.8.test]$ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 14.0.1 20240129 (experimental) [fedora@linux 6.8.test]$ as --version GNU assembler (GNU Binutils) 2.42.50.20240129 [fedora@linux 6.8.test]$ readelf -r init/main.o | grep -A 2 "rela.discard.unreachable" Relocation section '.rela.discard.unreachable' at offset 0x6028 contains 1 entry: Offset Info Type Sym.

objtool/x86: Separate arch-specific and generic parts

2024-03-11T14:23:47Z

Move init_orc_entry(), write_orc_entry(), reg_name(), orc_type_name() and print_reg() from generic orc_gen.c and orc_dump.c to arch-specific orc.c, then introduce a new function orc_print_dump() to print info. This is preparation for later patch, no functionality change.

objtool/x86: Fix SRSO mess

2023-08-16T07:39:16Z

Objtool --rethunk does two things: - it collects all (tail) call's of __x86_return_thunk and places them into .return_sites. These are typically compiler generated, but RET also emits this same. - it fudges the validation of the __x86_return_thunk symbol; because this symbol is inside another instruction, it can't actually find the instruction pointed to by the symbol offset and gets upset. Because these two things pertained to the same symbol, there was no pressing need to separate these two separate things. However, alas, along comes SRSO and more crazy things to deal with appeared. The SRSO patch itself added the following symbol names to identify as rethunk: 'srso_untrain_ret', 'srso_safe_ret' and '__ret' Where '__ret' is the old retbleed return thunk, 'srso_safe_ret' is a new similarly embedded return thunk, and 'srso_untrain_ret' is completely unrelated to anything the above does (and was only included because of that INT3 vs UD2 issue fixed previous). Clear things up by adding a second category for the embedded instruction thing.
