objtool: Handle __sanitize_cov*() tail calls

2021-11-17T10:03:58Z

[ Upstream commit f56dae88a81fded66adf2bea9922d1d98d1da14f ] Turns out the compilers also generate tail calls to __sanitize_cov*(), make sure to also patch those out in noinstr code.

objtool: Make .altinstructions section entry size consistent

2021-10-13T07:42:02Z

[ Upstream commit dc02368164bd0ec603e3f5b3dd8252744a667b8a ] Commit e31694e0a7a7 ("objtool: Don't make .altinstructions writable") aligned objtool-created and kernel-created .altinstructions section flags, but there remains a minor discrepency in their use of a section entry size: objtool sets one while the kernel build does not. While sh_entsize of sizeof(struct alt_instr) seems intuitive, this small deviation can cause failures with external tooling (kpatch-build). Fix this by creating new .altinstructions sections with sh_entsize of 0 and then later updating sec->sh_size as alternatives are added to the section. An added benefit is avoiding the data descriptor and buffer created by elf_create_section(), but previously unused by elf_add_alternative().

objtool: Don't make .altinstructions writable

2021-06-24T06:55:20Z

When objtool creates the .altinstructions section, it sets the SHF_WRITE flag to make the section writable -- unless the section had already been previously created by the kernel. The mismatch between kernel-created and objtool-created section flags can cause failures with external tooling (kpatch-build). And the section doesn't need to be writable anyway. Make the section flags consistent with the kernel's.

objtool: Only rewrite unconditional retpoline thunk calls

2021-06-11T06:53:06Z

It turns out that the compilers generate conditional branches to the retpoline thunks like: 5d5: 0f 85 00 00 00 00 jne 5db 5d7: R_X86_64_PLT32 __x86_indirect_thunk_r11-0x4 while the rewrite can only handle JMP/CALL to the thunks. The result is the alternative wrecking the code. Make sure to skip writing the alternatives for conditional branches.

objtool/x86: Fix elf_add_alternative() endianness

2021-05-12T19:17:01Z

Currently x86 kernel cross-compiled on big endian system fails at boot with: kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:258! Corresponding bug condition look like the following: BUG_ON(feature >= (NCAPINTS + NBUGINTS) * 32); Fix that by converting alternative feature/cpuid to target endianness.

objtool/x86: Rewrite retpoline thunk calls

2021-04-02T10:47:28Z

When the compiler emits: "CALL __x86_indirect_thunk_\reg" for an indirect call, have objtool rewrite it to: ALTERNATIVE "call __x86_indirect_thunk_\reg", "call *%reg", ALT_NOT(X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE) Additionally, in order to not emit endless identical .altinst_replacement chunks, use a global symbol for them, see __x86_indirect_alt_*. This also avoids objtool from having to do code generation.
