static_call: Don't make __static_call_return0 static

2022-04-13T18:03:26Z

commit 8fd4ddda2f49a66bf5dd3d0c01966c4b1971308b upstream. System.map shows that vmlinux contains several instances of __static_call_return0(): c0004fc0 t __static_call_return0 c0011518 t __static_call_return0 c00d8160 t __static_call_return0 arch_static_call_transform() uses the middle one to check whether we are setting a call to __static_call_return0 or not: c0011520 : c0011520: 3d 20 c0 01 lis r9,-16383 <== r9 = 0xc001 << 16 c0011524: 39 29 15 18 addi r9,r9,5400 <== r9 += 0x1518 c0011528: 7c 05 48 00 cmpw r5,r9 <== r9 has value 0xc0011518 here So if static_call_update() is called with one of the other instances of __static_call_return0(), arch_static_call_transform() won't recognise it. In order to work properly, global single instance of __static_call_return0() is required.

static_call: Relax static_call_update() function argument type

2021-04-09T11:22:12Z

static_call_update() had stronger type requirements than regular C, relax them to match. Instead of requiring the @func argument has the exact matching type, allow any type which C is willing to promote to the right (function) pointer type. Specifically this allows (void *) arguments. This cleans up a bunch of static_call_update() callers for PREEMPT_DYNAMIC and should get around silly GCC11 warnings for free.

static_call: Add function to query current function

2021-03-11T15:12:33Z

Some users of paravirtualized functions need to query which function has been specified in a pv_ops vector element. In order to be able to switch such paravirtualized functions to static_calls instead, there needs to be a function to query the function which will be called via static_call().

static_call: Move struct static_call_key definition to static_call_types.h

2021-03-11T15:04:39Z

Having the definition of static_call() in static_call_types.h makes no sense as long struct static_call_key isn't defined there, as the generic implementation of static_call() is referencing this structure. So move the definition of struct static_call_key to static_call_types.h.

static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_key

2021-02-17T13:12:42Z

When exporting static_call_key; with EXPORT_STATIC_CALL*(), the module can use static_call_update() to change the function called. This is not desirable in general. Not exporting static_call_key however also disallows usage of static_call(), since objtool needs the key to construct the static_call_site. Solve this by allowing objtool to create the static_call_site using the trampoline address when it builds a module and cannot find the static_call_key symbol. The module loader will then try and map the trampole back to a key before it constructs the normal sites list. Doing this requires a trampoline -> key associsation, so add another magic section that keeps those.

static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0()

2021-02-17T13:08:51Z

DECLARE_STATIC_CALL() must pass the original function targeted for a given static call. But DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() may want to initialize it as off. In this case we can't pass NULL (for functions without return value) or __static_call_return0 (for functions returning a value) directly to DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() as that may trigger a static call redeclaration with a different function prototype. Type casts neither can work around that as they don't get along with typeof(). The proper way to do that for functions that don't return a value is to use DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(). But functions returning a actual value don't have an equivalent yet. Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() to solve this situation.

static_call/x86: Add __static_call_return0()

2021-02-17T13:08:43Z

Provide a stub function that return 0 and wire up the static call site patching to replace the CALL with a single 5 byte instruction that clears %RAX, the return value register. The function can be cast to any function pointer type that has a single %RAX return (including pointers). Also provide a version that returns an int for convenience. We are clearing the entire %RAX register in any case, whether the return value is 32 or 64 bits, since %RAX is always a scratch register anyway.
