commit e81e0724432542af8d8c702c31e9d82f57b1ff31 upstream.

When compiling the kernel with AS=clang, objtool produces a lot of
warnings:

  warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .text
  warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .init.text
  warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .ref.text

It then fails to generate the ORC table.

The problem is that objtool assumes text section symbols always exist.
But the Clang assembler is aggressive about removing them.

When generating relocations for the ORC table, objtool always tries to
reference instructions by their section symbol offset.  If the section
symbol doesn't exist, it bails.

Do a fallback: when a section symbol isn't available, reference a
function symbol instead.

[ Upstream commit 1d489151e9f9d1647110277ff77282fe4d96d09b ]

Thanks to a recent binutils change which doesn't generate unused
symbols, it's now possible for thunk_64.o be completely empty without
CONFIG_PREEMPTION: no text, no data, no symbols.

We could edit the Makefile to only build that file when
CONFIG_PREEMPTION is enabled, but that will likely create confusion
if/when the thunks end up getting used by some other code again.

Just ignore it and move on.

commit 4e9a5ae8df5b3365183150f6df49e49dece80d8c upstream

Since insn.prefixes.nbytes can be bigger than the size of
insn.prefixes.bytes[] when a prefix is repeated, the proper check must
be

  insn.prefixes.bytes[i] != 0 and i &lt; 4

instead of using insn.prefixes.nbytes.

Introduce a for_each_insn_prefix() macro for this purpose. Debugged by
Kees Cook &lt;keescook@chromium.org&gt;.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit db6c6a0df840e3f52c84cc302cc1a08ba11a4416 ]

When a function is annotated with STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD, objtool
doesn't validate its code paths.  It also skips sibling call detection
within the function.

But sibling call detection is actually needed for the case where the
ignored function doesn't have any return instructions.  Otherwise
objtool naively marks the function as implicit static noreturn, which
affects the reachability of its callers, resulting in "unreachable
instruction" warnings.

Fix it by just enabling sibling call detection for ignored functions.
The 'insn-&gt;ignore' check in add_jump_destinations() is no longer needed
after

  e6da9567959e ("objtool: Don't use ignore flag for fake jumps").

Fixes the following warning:

  arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.o: warning: objtool: vmx_handle_exit_irqoff()+0x142: unreachable instruction

which triggers on an allmodconfig with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL unset.

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 8782e7cab51b6bf01a5a86471dd82228af1ac185 ]

Historically, the relocation symbols for ORC entries have only been
section symbols:

  .text+0: sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:call end:0

However, the Clang assembler is aggressive about stripping section
symbols.  In that case we will need to use function symbols:

  freezing_slow_path+0: sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:call end:0

In preparation for the generation of such entries in "objtool orc
generate", add support for reading them in "objtool orc dump".

[ 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.

[ Upstream commit 8b7e20a7ba54836076ff35a28349dabea4cec48f ]

Add TEST opcode to Group3-2 reg=001b as same as Group3-1 does.

Commit

  12a78d43de76 ("x86/decoder: Add new TEST instruction pattern")

added a TEST opcode assignment to f6 XX/001/XXX (Group 3-1), but did
not add f7 XX/001/XXX (Group 3-2).

Actually, this TEST opcode variant (ModRM.reg /1) is not described in
the Intel SDM Vol2 but in AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Vol.3,
Appendix A.2 Table A-6. ModRM.reg Extensions for the Primary Opcode Map.

Without this fix, Randy found a warning by insn_decoder_test related
to this issue as below.
