kallsyms: Get rid of kallsyms relative base
When the kallsyms relative base was introduced, per-CPU variable references on x86_64 SMP were implemented as offsets into the respective per-CPU region, rather than offsets relative to the location of the variable's template in the kernel image, which is how other architectures implement it. This required kallsyms to reason about the difference between the two, and the sign of the value in the kallsyms_offsets[] array was used to distinguish them. This meant that negative offsets were not permitted for ordinary variables, and so it was crucial that the relative base was chosen such that all offsets were positive numbers. This is no longer needed: instead, the offsets can simply be encoded as values in the range -/+ 2 GiB, which is precisely what PC32 relocations provide on most architectures. So it is possible to simplify the logic, and just use _text as the anchor directly, and let the linker calculate the final value based on the location of the entry itself. Some architectures (nios2, extensa) do not support place-relative relocations at all, but these are all 32-bit and non-relocatable, and so there is no need for place-relative relocations in the first place, and the actual symbol values can just be stored directly. This makes all entries in the kallsyms_offsets[] array visible as place-relative references in the ELF metadata, which will be important when implementing ELF-based fg-kaslr.

resolve_btfids: Implement --patch_btfids
Recent changes in BTF generation [1] rely on ${OBJCOPY} command to
update .BTF_ids section data in target ELF files.
This exposed a bug in llvm-objcopy --update-section code path, that
may lead to corruption of a target ELF file. Specifically, because of
the bug st_shndx of some symbols may be (incorrectly) set to 0xffff
(SHN_XINDEX) [2][3].
While there is a pending fix for LLVM, it'll take some time before it
lands (likely in 22.x). And the kernel build must keep working with
older LLVM toolchains in the foreseeable future.
Using GNU objcopy for .BTF_ids update would work, but it would require
changes to LLVM-based build process, likely breaking existing build
environments as discussed in [2].
To work around llvm-objcopy bug, implement --patch_btfids code path in
resolve_btfids as a drop-in replacement for:
${OBJCOPY} --update-section .BTF_ids=${btf_ids} ${elf}
Which works specifically for .BTF_ids section:
${RESOLVE_BTFIDS} --patch_btfids ${btf_ids} ${elf}
This feature in resolve_btfids can be removed at some point in the
future, when llvm-objcopy with a relevant bugfix becomes common.

resolve_btfids: Change in-place update with raw binary output
Currently resolve_btfids updates .BTF_ids section of an ELF file
in-place, based on the contents of provided BTF, usually within the
same input file, and optionally a BTF base.
Change resolve_btfids behavior to enable BTF transformations as part
of its main operation. To achieve this, in-place ELF write in
resolve_btfids is replaced with generation of the following binaries:
* ${1}.BTF with .BTF section data
* ${1}.BTF_ids with .BTF_ids section data if it existed in ${1}
* ${1}.BTF.base with .BTF.base section data for out-of-tree modules
The execution of resolve_btfids and consumption of its output is
orchestrated by scripts/gen-btf.sh introduced in this patch.
The motivation for emitting binary data is that it allows simplifying
resolve_btfids implementation by delegating ELF update to the $OBJCOPY
tool [1], which is already widely used across the codebase.
There are two distinct paths for BTF generation and resolve_btfids
application in the kernel build: for vmlinux and for kernel modules.
For the vmlinux binary a .BTF section is added in a roundabout way to
ensure correct linking. The patch doesn't change this approach, only
the implementation is a little different.
Before this patch it worked as follows:
* pahole consumed .tmp_vmlinux1 [2] and added .BTF section with
llvm-objcopy [3] to it
* then everything except the .BTF section was stripped from .tmp_vmlinux1
into a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object [2], later linked into vmlinux
* resolve_btfids was executed later on vmlinux.unstripped [4],
updating it in-place
After this patch gen-btf.sh implements the following:
* pahole consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and produces a *detached* file with
raw BTF data
* resolve_btfids consumes .tmp_vmlinux1 and detached BTF to produce
(potentially modified) .BTF, and .BTF_ids sections data
* a .tmp_vmlinux1.bpf.o object is then produced with objcopy copying
BTF output of resolve_btfids
* .BTF_ids data gets embedded into vmlinux.unstripped in
link-vmlinux.sh by objcopy --update-section
For kernel modules, creating a special .bpf.o file is not necessary,
and so embedding of sections data produced by resolve_btfids is
straightforward with objcopy.
With this patch an ELF file becomes effectively read-only within
resolve_btfids, which allows deleting elf_update() call and satellite
code (like compressed_section_fix [5]).
Endianness handling of .BTF_ids data is also changed. Previously the
"flags" part of the section was bswapped in sets_patch() [6], and then
Elf_Type was modified before elf_update() to signal to libelf that
bswap may be necessary. With this patch we explicitly bswap entire
data buffer on load and on dump.

Detect unused tracepoints for v6.19:
If a tracepoint is defined but never used (TRACE_EVENT() created but no
trace_<tracepoint>() called), it can take up to or more than 5K of memory
each. This can add up as there are around a hundred unused tracepoints with
various configs. That is 500K of wasted memory.
Add a make build parameter of "UT=1" to have the build warn if an unused
tracepoint is detected in the build. This allows detection of unused
tracepoints to be upstream so that outreachy and the mentoring project can
have new developers look for fixing them, without having these warnings
suddenly show up when someone upgrades their kernel. When all known unused
tracepoints are removed, then the "UT=1" build parameter can be removed and
unused tracepoints will always warn. This will catch new unused tracepoints
after the current ones have been removed.
- Separate out elf functions from sorttable.c
Move out the ELF parsing functions from sorttable.c so that the tracing
tooling can use it.
- Add a tracepoint verifier tool to the build process
If "UT=1" is added to the kernel command line, any unused tracepoints will
trigger a warning at build time.
- Do not warn about unused tracepoints for tracepoints that are exported
There are sever cases where a tracepoint is created by the kernel and used
by modules. Since there's no easy way to detect if these are truly unused
since the users are in modules, if a tracepoint is exported, assume it
will eventually be used by a module. Note, there's not many exported
tracepoints so this should not be a problem to ignore them.
- Have building of modules also detect unused tracepoints
Do not only check the main vmlinux for unused tracepoints, also check
modules. If a module is defining a tracepoint it should be using it.
- Add the tracepoint-update program to the ignore file
The new tracepoint-update program needs to be ignored by git.

tracing: Add a tracepoint verification check at build time
If a tracepoint is defined via DECLARE_TRACE() or TRACE_EVENT() but never called (via the trace_<tracepoint>() function), its metadata is still around in memory and not discarded. When created via TRACE_EVENT() the situation is worse because the TRACE_EVENT() creates metadata that can be around 5k per trace event. Having unused trace events causes several thousand of wasted bytes. Add a verifier that injects a string of the name of the tracepoint it calls that is added to the discarded section "__tracepoint_check". For every builtin tracepoint, its name (which is saved in the in-memory section "__tracepoint_strings") will have its name also in the "__tracepoint_check" section if it is used. Add a new program that is run on build called tracepoint-update. This is executed on the vmlinux.o before the __tracepoint_check section is discarded (the section is discarded before vmlinux is created). This program will create an array of each string in the __tracepoint_check section and then sort it. Then it will walk the strings in the __tracepoint_strings section and do a binary search to check if its name is in the __tracepoint_check section. If it is not, then it is unused and a warning is printed. Note, this currently only handles tracepoints that are builtin and not in modules. Enabling this currently with a given config produces: warning: tracepoint 'sched_move_numa' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'sched_stick_numa' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'sched_swap_numa' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'pelt_hw_tp' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'pelt_irq_tp' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'rcu_preempt_task' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'rcu_unlock_preempted_task' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xdp_bulk_tx' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xdp_redirect_map' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xdp_redirect_map_err' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'vma_mas_szero' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'vma_store' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'hugepage_set_pmd' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'hugepage_set_pud' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'hugepage_update_pmd' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'hugepage_update_pud' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'block_rq_remap' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_handle_event' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_handle_transfer' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_gadget_ep_queue' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_alloc_request' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_free_request' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_queue_request' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'xhci_dbc_giveback_request' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_wrong_maclen' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_mismatch' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_key_not_found' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_rnext_request' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_synack_no_key' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_snd_sne_update' is unused. warning: tracepoint 'tcp_ao_rcv_sne_update' is unused. Some of the above is totally unused but others are not used due to their "trace_" functions being inside configs, in which case, the defined tracepoints should also be inside those same configs. Others are architecture specific but defined in generic code, where they should either be moved to the architecture or be surrounded by #ifdef for the architectures they are for. This tool could be updated to process modules in the future. I'd like to thank Mathieu Desnoyers for suggesting using strings instead of pointers, as using pointers in vmlinux.o required handling relocations and it required implementing almost a full feature linker to do so. To enable this check, run the build with: make UT=1 Note, when all the existing unused tracepoints are removed from the build, the "UT=1" will be removed and this will always be enabled when tracepoints are configured to warn on any new tracepoints. The reason this isn't always enabled now is because it will introduce a lot of warnings for the current unused tracepoints, and all bisects would end at this commit for those warnings.

kbuild,objtool: Defer objtool validation step for CONFIG_KLP_BUILD
In preparation for klp-build, defer objtool validation for CONFIG_KLP_BUILD kernels until the final pre-link archive (e.g., vmlinux.o, module-foo.o) is built. This will simplify the process of generating livepatch modules. Delayed objtool is generally preferred anyway, and is already standard for IBT and LTO. Eventually the per-translation-unit mode will be phased out.

tracing and sorttable updates for 6.15:
- Implement arm64 build time sorting of the mcount location table When gcc is used to build arm64, the mcount_loc section is all zeros in the vmlinux elf file. The addresses are stored in the Elf_Rela location. To sort at build time, an array is allocated and the addresses are added to it via the content of the mcount_loc section as well as he Elf_Rela data. After sorting, the information is put back into the Elf_Rela which now has the section sorted. - Make sorting of mcount location table for arm64 work with clang as well When clang is used, the mcount_loc section contains the addresses, unlike the gcc build. An array is still created and the sorting works for both methods. - Remove weak functions from the mcount_loc section Have the sorttable code pass in the data of functions defined via nm -S which shows the functions as well as their sizes. Using this information the sorttable code can determine if a function in the mcount_loc section was weak and overridden. If the function is not found, it is set to be zero. On boot, when the mcount_loc section is read and the ftrace table is created, if the address in the mcount_loc is not in the kernel core text then it is removed and not added to the ftrace_filter_functions (the functions that can be attached by ftrace callbacks). - Update and fix the reporting of how much data is used for ftrace functions On boot, a report of how many pages were used by the ftrace table as well as how they were grouped (the table holds a list of sections that are groups of pages that were able to be allocated). The removing of the weak functions required the accounting to be updated. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZ+MnThQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qivsAQDhPOCaONai7rvHX9T1aOHGjdajZ7SI qoZgBOsc2ZUkoQD/U2M/m7Yof9aR4I+VFKtT5NsAwpfqPSOL/t/1j6UEOQ8= =45AV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-sorttable-v6.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing / sorttable updates from Steven Rostedt: - Implement arm64 build time sorting of the mcount location table When gcc is used to build arm64, the mcount_loc section is all zeros in the vmlinux elf file.

scripts/sorttable: Zero out weak functions in mcount_loc table
When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.
Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.
At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.

kbuild: add generic support for built-in boot DTBs
Some architectures embed boot DTBs in vmlinux. A potential issue for these architectures is a race condition during parallel builds because Kbuild descends into arch/*/boot/dts/ twice. One build thread is initiated by the 'dtbs' target, which is a prerequisite of the 'all' target in the top-level Makefile: ifdef CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE all: dtbs endif For architectures that support the built-in boot dtb, arch/*/boot/dts/ is visited also during the ordinary directory traversal in order to build obj-y objects that wrap DTBs. Since these build threads are unaware of each other, they can run simultaneously during parallel builds. This commit introduces a generic build rule to scripts/Makefile.vmlinux to support embedded boot DTBs in a race-free way. Architectures that want to use this rule need to select CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB. After the migration, Makefiles under arch/*/boot/dts/ will be visited only once to build only *.dtb files. This change also aims to unify the CONFIG options used for built-in DTBs support. Currently, different architectures use different CONFIG options for the same purposes. With this commit, the CONFIG options will be unified as follows: - CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB This enables the generic rule for built-in boot DTBs. This will be renamed to CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB after all architectures migrate to the generic rule. - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME This specifies the path to the embedded DTB. (relative to arch/*/boot/dts/) - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_ALL If this is enabled, all DTB files compiled under arch/*/boot/dts/ are embedded into vmlinux. Only used by MIPS.

kbuild: Add generic hook for architectures to use before the final vmlinux link
On powerpc, we would like to be able to make a pass on vmlinux.o and generate a new object file to be linked into vmlinux. Add a generic pass in Makefile.vmlinux that architectures can use for this purpose. Architectures need to select CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_PRE_LINK_VMLINUX and must provide arch/<arch>/tools/Makefile with .arch.vmlinux.o target, which will be invoked prior to the final vmlinux link step.

Merge tag 'bpf-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:
- Introduce '__attribute__((bpf_fastcall))' for helpers and kfuncs with
corresponding support in LLVM.
It is similar to existing 'no_caller_saved_registers' attribute in
GCC/LLVM with a provision for backward compatibility. It allows
compilers generate more efficient BPF code assuming the verifier or
JITs will inline or partially inline a helper/kfunc with such
attribute. bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx, bpf_rdonly_cast,
bpf_get_smp_processor_id are the first set of such helpers.
- Harden and extend ELF build ID parsing logic.
When called from sleepable context the relevants parts of ELF file
will be read to find and fetch .note.gnu.build-id information. Also
harden the logic to avoid TOCTOU, overflow, out-of-bounds problems.
- Improvements and fixes for sched-ext:
- Allow passing BPF iterators as kfunc arguments
- Make the pointer returned from iter_next method trusted
- Fix x86 JIT convergence issue due to growing/shrinking conditional
jumps in variable length encoding
- BPF_LSM related:
- Introduce few VFS kfuncs and consolidate them in
fs/bpf_fs_kfuncs.c
- Enforce correct range of return values from certain LSM hooks
- Disallow attaching to other LSM hooks
- Prerequisite work for upcoming Qdisc in BPF:
- Allow kptrs in program provided structs
- Support for gen_epilogue in verifier_ops
- Important fixes:
- Fix uprobe multi pid filter check
- Fix bpf_strtol and bpf_strtoul helpers
- Track equal scalars history on per-instruction level
- Fix tailcall hierarchy on x86 and arm64
- Fix signed division overflow to prevent INT_MIN/-1 trap on x86
- Fix get kernel stack in BPF progs attached to tracepoint:syscall
- Selftests:
- Add uprobe bench/stress tool
- Generate file dependencies to drastically improve re-build time
- Match JIT-ed and BPF asm with __xlated/__jited keywords
- Convert older tests to test_progs framework
- Add support for RISC-V
- Few fixes when BPF programs are compiled with GCC-BPF backend
(support for GCC-BPF in BPF CI is ongoing in parallel)
- Add traffic monitor
- Enable cross compile and musl libc

kbuild: remove recent dependency on "truncate" program
Remove the recently-added dependency on the truncate program for
building the kernel. truncate is not available when building the kernel
under Yocto. It could be added, but it would be better just to avoid
the unnecessary dependency.

kbuild: avoid scripts/kallsyms parsing /dev/null
On macOS, as reported by Daniel Gomez, getline() sets ENOTTY to errno
if it is requested to read from /dev/null.
If this is worth fixing, I would rather pass an empty file to
scripts/kallsyms instead of adding the ugly #ifdef __APPLE__.

kbuild: merge temporary vmlinux for BTF and kallsyms
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y requires one additional link step.
(.tmp_vmlinux.btf)
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y requires two additional link steps.
(.tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1 and .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2)
Enabling both requires three additional link steps.
When CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y and CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, the current build
process is as follows:
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.btf # temporary vmlinux for BTF
BTF .btf.vmlinux.bin.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1 # temporary vmlinux for kallsyms step 1
NM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2 # temporary vmlinux for kallsyms step 2
NM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
LD vmlinux # final vmlinux
This is redundant because the BTF generation and the kallsyms step 1 can
be performed against the same temporary vmlinux.
When both CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF and CONFIG_KALLSYMS are enabled, we can
reduce the number of link steps by one.
This commit changes the build process as follows:
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux0.kallsyms.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux0.kallsyms.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1 # temporary vmlinux for BTF and kallsyms step 1
BTF .tmp_vmlinux1.btf.o
NM .tmp_vmlinux1.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux1.kallsyms.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux1.kallsyms.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux2 # temporary vmlinux for kallsyms step 2
NM .tmp_vmlinux2.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux2.kallsyms.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux2.kallsyms.o
LD vmlinux # final vmlinux

scripts/kallsyms: exclude symbols generated by itself dynamically
Drop the symbols generated by scripts/kallsyms itself automatically instead of maintaining the symbol list manually. Pass the kallsyms object from the previous kallsyms step (if it exists) as the third parameter of scripts/mksysmap, which will weed out the generated symbols from the input to the next kallsyms step.

kallsyms: Correctly sequence symbols when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y
LLVM appends various suffixes for local functions and variables, suffixes observed: - foo.llvm.[0-9a-f]+ - foo.[0-9a-f]+ Therefore, when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, kallsyms_lookup_name() needs to truncate the suffix of the symbol name before comparing the local function or variable name. Old implementation code: - if (strcmp(namebuf, name) == 0) - return kallsyms_sym_address(i); - if (cleanup_symbol_name(namebuf) && strcmp(namebuf, name) == 0) - return kallsyms_sym_address(i); The preceding process is traversed by address from low to high. That is, for those with the same name after the suffix is removed, the one with the smallest address is returned first. Therefore, when sorting in the tool, if the raw names are the same, they should be sorted by address in ascending order. ASCII[.] = 2e ASCII[0-9] = 30,39 ASCII[A-Z] = 41,5a ASCII[_] = 5f ASCII[a-z] = 61,7a According to the preceding ASCII code values, the following sorting result is strictly followed. --------------------------------- | main-key | sub-key | |---------------------------------| | | addr_lowest | | <name> | ... | | <name>.<suffix> | ... | | | addr_highest | |---------------------------------| | <name>?<others> | | //? is [_A-Za-z0-9] --------------------------------- Signed-off-by: Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> |

kbuild: reuse mksysmap output for kallsyms
scripts/mksysmap internally runs ${NM} (dropping some symbols).
When CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, mksysmap creates .tmp_System.map, but it is
almost the same as the output from the ${NM} invocation in kallsyms().
It is true scripts/mksysmap drops some symbols, but scripts/kallsyms.c
ignores more anyway.
Keep the mksysmap output as *.syms, and reuse it for kallsyms and
'cmp -s'. It saves one ${NM} invocation.

kbuild: use obj-y instead extra-y for objects placed at the head
The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments: - arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place them before other archives in the linker command line. - arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a. This commit gets rid of the latter. Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'. With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y for builtin objects. There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py. $(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested by Nathan Chancellor [1].

kbuild: unify two modpost invocations
Currently, modpost is executed twice; first for vmlinux, second
for modules.
This commit merges them.
Current build flow
==================
1) build obj-y and obj-m objects
2) link vmlinux.o
3) modpost for vmlinux
4) link vmlinux
5) modpost for modules
6) link modules (*.ko)
The build steps 1) through 6) are serialized, that is, modules are
built after vmlinux. You do not get benefits of parallel builds when
scripts/link-vmlinux.sh is being run.
New build flow
==============
1) build obj-y and obj-m objects
2) link vmlinux.o
3) modpost for vmlinux and modules
4a) link vmlinux
4b) link modules (*.ko)
In the new build flow, modpost is invoked just once.
vmlinux and modules are built in parallel. One exception is
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES=y, where modules depend on vmlinux.
