From 56067812d5b0e737ac2063e94a50f76b810d6ca3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2017 09:54:05 +0000 Subject: kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for emitting relative CRCs This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following: - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols as references into the .rodata section - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols by the section index (SHN_ABS) - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- scripts/mod/modpost.c | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) (limited to 'scripts/mod') diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c index 29c89a6bad3d..4dedd0d3d3a7 100644 --- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c +++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c @@ -621,6 +621,16 @@ static void handle_modversions(struct module *mod, struct elf_info *info, if (strncmp(symname, CRC_PFX, strlen(CRC_PFX)) == 0) { is_crc = true; crc = (unsigned int) sym->st_value; + if (sym->st_shndx != SHN_UNDEF && sym->st_shndx != SHN_ABS) { + unsigned int *crcp; + + /* symbol points to the CRC in the ELF object */ + crcp = (void *)info->hdr + sym->st_value + + info->sechdrs[sym->st_shndx].sh_offset - + (info->hdr->e_type != ET_REL ? + info->sechdrs[sym->st_shndx].sh_addr : 0); + crc = *crcp; + } sym_update_crc(symname + strlen(CRC_PFX), mod, crc, export); } -- cgit v1.2.3 From e390f9a9689a42f477a6073e2e7df530a4c1b740 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2017 12:04:44 -0600 Subject: objtool, modules: Discard objtool annotation sections for modules The '__unreachable' and '__func_stack_frame_non_standard' sections are only used at compile time. They're discarded for vmlinux but they should also be discarded for modules. Since this is a recurring pattern, prefix the section names with ".discard.". It's a nice convention and vmlinux.lds.h already discards such sections. Also remove the 'a' (allocatable) flag from the __unreachable section since it doesn't make sense for a discarded section.
