linux.git/scripts/recordmcount.pl, branch v3.10.100 Clone of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git scripts/recordmcount.pl: support data in text section on powerpc 2016-01-29T05:49:35+00:00 Ulrich Weigand ulrich.weigand@de.ibm.com 2016-01-12T12:14:22+00:00 288ac5089706c898f6541da45d62fdccfa5a11a6 commit 2e50c4bef77511b42cc226865d6bc568fa7f8769 upstream. If a text section starts out with a data blob before the first function start label, disassembly parsing doing in recordmcount.pl gets confused on powerpc, leading to creation of corrupted module objects. This was not a problem so far since the compiler would never create such text sections. However, this has changed with a recent change in GCC 6 to support distances of > 2GB between a function and its assoicated TOC in the ELFv2 ABI, exposing this problem. There is already code in recordmcount.pl to handle such data blobs on the sparc64 platform. This patch uses the same method to handle those on powerpc as well.

commit 2e50c4bef77511b42cc226865d6bc568fa7f8769 upstream.

If a text section starts out with a data blob before the first
function start label, disassembly parsing doing in recordmcount.pl
gets confused on powerpc, leading to creation of corrupted module
objects.

This was not a problem so far since the compiler would never create
such text sections.  However, this has changed with a recent change
in GCC 6 to support distances of > 2GB between a function and its
assoicated TOC in the ELFv2 ABI, exposing this problem.

There is already code in recordmcount.pl to handle such data blobs
on the sparc64 platform.  This patch uses the same method to handle
those on powerpc as well.
