[ Upstream commit b980be189c9badba50634671e2303e92bf28e35a ]

Add to the opcode map the following instructions:
        cldemote
        tpause
        umonitor
        umwait
        movdiri
        movdir64b
        enqcmd
        enqcmds
        encls
        enclu
        enclv
        pconfig
        wbnoinvd

For information about the instructions, refer Intel SDM May 2019
(325462-070US) and Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions
May 2019 (319433-037).

The instruction decoding can be tested using the perf tools'
"x86 instruction decoder - new instructions" test as folllows:

  $ perf test -v "new " 2&gt;&amp;1 | grep -i cldemote
  Decoded ok: 0f 1c 00                    cldemote (%eax)

commit 700c1018b86d0d4b3f1f2d459708c0cdf42b521d upstream.

gawk 5.0.1 generates the following regexp warnings:

  GEN      /home/sasha/torvalds/tools/objtool/arch/x86/lib/inat-tables.c
  awk: ../arch/x86/tools/gen-insn-attr-x86.awk:260: warning: regexp escape sequence `\:' is not a known regexp operator
  awk: ../arch/x86/tools/gen-insn-attr-x86.awk:350: (FILENAME=../arch/x86/lib/x86-opcode-map.txt FNR=41) warning: regexp escape sequence `\&amp;' is  not a known regexp operator

Ealier versions of gawk are not known to generate these warnings. The
gawk manual referenced below does not list characters ':' and '&amp;' as
needing escaping, so 'unescape' them. See

  https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Escape-Sequences.html

for more info.

Running diff on the output generated by the script before and after
applying the patch reported no differences.

commit f73b3cc39c84220e6dccd463b5c8279b03514646 upstream.

If the build user has the CFLAGS variable set in their environment,
objtool blindly appends to it, which can cause unexpected behavior.

Clobber CFLAGS to ensure consistent objtool compilation behavior.

commit bcb6fb5da77c2a228adf07cc9cb1a0c2aa2001c6 upstream.

Starting with GCC 8, a lot of unlikely code was moved out of line to
"cold" subfunctions in .text.unlikely.

For example, the unlikely bits of:

  irq_do_set_affinity()

are moved out to the following subfunction:

  irq_do_set_affinity.cold.49()

Starting with GCC 9, the numbered suffix has been removed.  So in the
above example, the cold subfunction is instead:

  irq_do_set_affinity.cold()

Tweak the objtool subfunction detection logic so that it detects both
GCC 8 and GCC 9 naming schemes.

<title>objtool: Support per-function rodata sections</title>

<id>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>

[ 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.

[ 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.

commit 8ea58f1e8b11cca3087b294779bf5959bf89cc10 upstream.

Currently, this Makefile hardcodes GNU ar, meaning that if it is not
available, there is no way to supply a different one and the build will
fail.

  $ make AR=llvm-ar CC=clang LD=ld.lld HOSTAR=llvm-ar HOSTCC=clang \
         HOSTLD=ld.lld HOSTLDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=lld defconfig modules_prepare
  ...
    AR       /out/tools/objtool/libsubcmd.a
  /bin/sh: 1: ar: not found
  ...

Follow the logic of HOST{CC,LD} and allow the user to specify a
different ar tool via HOSTAR (which is used elsewhere in other
tools/ Makefiles).
