objtool: Add --mnop as an option to --mcount
Some architectures (powerpc) may not support ftrace locations being nop'ed
out at build time. Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_OBJTOOL_NOP_MCOUNT for objtool, as
a means for architectures to enable nop'ing of ftrace locations. Add --mnop
as an option to objtool --mcount, to indicate support for the same.
Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option to objtool only when
--mcount is passed.

objtool: Add option to generate prefix symbols
When code is compiled with:
-fpatchable-function-entry=${PADDING_BYTES},${PADDING_BYTES}
functions will have PADDING_BYTES of NOP in front of them. Unwinders
and other things that symbolize code locations will typically
attribute these bytes to the preceding function.
Given that these bytes nominally belong to the following symbol this
mis-attribution is confusing.
Inspired by the fact that CFI_CLANG emits __cfi_##name symbols to
claim these bytes, allow objtool to emit __pfx_##name symbols to do
the same.
Therefore add the objtool --prefix=N argument, to conditionally place
a __pfx_##name symbol at N bytes ahead of symbol 'name' when: all
these preceding bytes are NOP and name-N is an instruction boundary.

objtool: Add entry UNRET validation
Since entry asm is tricky, add a validation pass that ensures the
retbleed mitigation has been done before the first actual RET
instruction.
Entry points are those that either have UNWIND_HINT_ENTRY, which acts
as UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY but marks the instruction as an entry point, or
those that have UWIND_HINT_IRET_REGS at +0.
This is basically a variant of validate_branch() that is
intra-function and it will simply follow all branches from marked
entry points and ensures that all paths lead to ANNOTATE_UNRET_END.
If a path hits RET or an indirection the path is a fail and will be
reported.
There are 3 ANNOTATE_UNRET_END instances:
- UNTRAIN_RET itself
- exception from-kernel; this path doesn't need UNTRAIN_RET
- all early exceptions; these also don't need UNTRAIN_RET

objtool: Remove --lto and --vmlinux in favor of --link
The '--lto' option is a confusing way of telling objtool to do stack
validation despite it being a linked object. It's no longer needed now
that an explicit '--stackval' option exists. The '--vmlinux' option is
also redundant.
Remove both options in favor of a straightforward '--link' option which
identifies a linked object.
Also, implicitly set '--link' with a warning if the user forgets to do
so and we can tell that it's a linked object. This makes it easier for
manual vmlinux runs.

objtool: Ditch subcommands
Objtool has a fairly singular focus. It runs on object files and does
validations and transformations which can be combined in various ways.
The subcommand model has never been a good fit, making it awkward to
combine and remove options.
Remove the "check" and "orc" subcommands in favor of a more traditional
cmdline option model. This makes it much more flexible to use, and
easier to port individual features to other arches.

"Clang LTO x86 enablement.
Full disclosure: while this has _not_ been in linux-next (since it
initially looked like the objtool dependencies weren't going to make
v5.12), it has been under daily build and runtime testing by Sami for
quite some time. These x86 portions have been discussed on lkml, with
Peter, Josh, and others helping nail things down.
The bulk of the changes are to get objtool working happily. The rest
of the x86 enablement is very small.

Currently objtool headers are being included either by their base name
or included via ../ from a parent directory. In case of a base name usage:
#include "warn.h"
#include "arch_elf.h"
it does not make it apparent from which directory the file comes from.
To make it slightly better, and actually to avoid name clashes some arch
specific files have "arch_" suffix. And files from an arch folder have
to revert to including via ../ e.g:
#include "../../elf.h"
With additional architectures support and the code base growth there is
a need for clearer headers naming scheme for multiple reasons:
1. to make it instantly obvious where these files come from (objtool
itself / objtool arch|generic folders / some other external files),
2. to avoid name clashes of objtool arch specific headers, potential
obtool arch generic headers and the system header files (there is
/usr/include/elf.h already),
3. to avoid ../ includes and improve code readability.
4. to give a warm fuzzy feeling to developers who are mostly kernel
developers and are accustomed to linux kernel headers arranging
scheme.
Doesn't this make it instantly obvious where are these files come from?
#include <objtool/warn.h>
#include <arch/elf.h>
And doesn't it look nicer to avoid ugly ../ includes? Which also
guarantees this is elf.h from the objtool and not /usr/include/elf.h.
#include <objtool/elf.h>
This patch defines and implements new objtool headers arranging
scheme. Which is:
- all generic headers go to include/objtool (similar to include/linux)
- all arch headers go to arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/arch (to get arch
prefix). This is similar to linux arch specific "asm/*" headers but we
are not abusing "asm" name and calling it what it is. This also helps
to prevent name clashes (arch is not used in system headers or kernel
exports).
To bring objtool to this state the following things are done:
1. current top level tools/objtool/ headers are moved into
include/objtool/ subdirectory,
2. arch specific headers, currently only arch/x86/include/ are moved into
arch/x86/include/arch/ and were stripped of "arch_" suffix,
3. new -I$(srctree)/tools/objtool/include include path to make
includes like <objtool/warn.h> possible,
4. rewriting file includes,
5. make git not to ignore include/objtool/ subdirectory.

Objtool currently only compiles for x86 architectures. This is
fine as it presently does not support tooling for other
architectures. However, we would like to be able to convert other
kernel tools to run as objtool sub commands because they too
process ELF object files. This will allow us to convert tools
such as recordmcount to use objtool's ELF code.
Since much of recordmcount's ELF code is copy-paste code to/from
a variety of other kernel tools (look at modpost for example) this
means that if we can convert recordmcount we can convert more.
We define weak definitions for subcommand entry functions and other weak
definitions for shared functions critical to building existing
subcommands. These return 127 when the command is missing which signify
tools that do not exist on all architectures. In this case the "check"
and "orc" tools do not exist on all architectures so we only add them
for x86. Future changes adding support for "check", to arm64 for
example, can then modify the SUBCMD_CHECK variable when building for
arm64.
Objtool is not currently wired in to KConfig to be built for other
architectures because it's not needed for those architectures and
there are no commands it supports other than those for x86. As more
command support is enabled on various architectures the necessary
KConfig changes can be made (e.g. adding "STACK_VALIDATION") to
trigger building objtool.

Validate that any call out of .noinstr.text is in between
instr_begin() and instr_end() annotations.
This annotation is useful to ensure correct behaviour wrt tracing
sensitive code like entry/exit and idle code. When we run code in a
sensitive context we want a guarantee no unknown code is ran.
Since this validation relies on knowing the section of call
destination symbols, we must run it on vmlinux.o instead of on
individual object files.
Add two options:
-d/--duplicate "duplicate validation for vmlinux"
-l/--vmlinux "vmlinux.o validation"
Where the latter auto-detects when objname ends with "vmlinux.o" and
the former will force all validations, also those already done on
!vmlinux object files.

It is important that UACCESS regions are as small as possible;
furthermore the UACCESS state is not scheduled, so doing anything that
might directly call into the scheduler will cause random code to be
ran with UACCESS enabled.
Teach objtool too track UACCESS state and warn about any CALL made
while UACCESS is enabled. This very much includes the __fentry__()
and __preempt_schedule() calls.
Note that exceptions _do_ save/restore the UACCESS state, and therefore
they can drive preemption. This also means that all exception handlers
must have an otherwise redundant UACCESS disable instruction;
therefore ignore this warning for !STT_FUNC code (exception handlers
are not normal functions).

Objtool tries to silence 'unreachable instruction' warnings when it
detects gcov is enabled, because gcov produces a lot of unreachable
instructions and they don't really matter.
However, the 0-day bot is still reporting some unreachable instruction
warnings with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y on GCC 4.6.4.
As it turns out, objtool's gcov detection doesn't work with older
versions of GCC because they don't create a bunch of symbols with the
'gcov.' prefix like newer versions of GCC do.
Move the gcov check out of objtool and instead just create a new
'--no-unreachable' flag which can be passed in by the kernel Makefile
when CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is defined.
Also rename the 'nofp' variable to 'no_fp' for consistency with the new
'no_unreachable' variable.

Now that objtool knows the states of all registers on the stack for each
instruction, it's straightforward to generate debuginfo for an unwinder
to use.
Instead of generating DWARF, generate a new format called ORC, which is
more suitable for an in-kernel unwinder. See
Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for a more detailed description of
this new debuginfo format and why it's preferable to DWARF.

The issue is in find_switch_table(). It tries to find a switch
statement's jump table by walking backwards from an indirect jump
instruction, looking for a relocation to the .rodata section. In this
case it stopped walking prematurely: the first .rodata relocation it
encountered was for a variable (resp_state_name) instead of a jump
table, so it just assumed there wasn't a jump table.
The fix is to ignore any .rodata relocation which refers to an ELF
object symbol. This works because the jump tables are anonymous and
have no symbols associated with them.

Since this is a recurring pattern, prefix the section names with

Also remove the 'a' (allocatable) flag from the __unreachable section

The BUG() macro's use of __builtin_unreachable() via the unreachable()
macro tells gcc that the instruction is a dead end, and that it's safe
to assume the current code path will not execute past the previous
instruction.
On x86, the BUG() macro is implemented with the 'ud2' instruction. When
objtool's branch analysis sees that instruction, it knows the current
code path has come to a dead end.
Peter Zijlstra has been working on a patch to change the WARN macros to
use 'ud2'. That patch will break objtool's assumption that 'ud2' is
always a dead end.
Generally it's best for objtool to avoid making those kinds of
assumptions anyway. The more ignorant it is of kernel code internals,
the better.
So create a more generic way for objtool to detect dead ends by adding
an annotation to the unreachable() macro. The annotation stores a
pointer to the end of the unreachable code path in an '__unreachable'
section. Objtool can read that section to find the dead ends.

Recently objtool has started reporting a few "unreachable instruction"
warnings when CONFIG_GCOV is enabled for newer versions of GCC. Usually
this warning means there's some new control flow that objtool doesn't
understand. But in this case, objtool is correct and the instructions
really are inaccessible. It's an annoying quirk of gcov, but it's
harmless, so it's ok to just silence the warnings.
With older versions of GCC, it was relatively easy to detect
gcov-specific instructions and to skip any unreachable warnings produced
by them. But GCC 6 has gotten craftier.
Instead of continuing to play whack-a-mole with gcov, just use a bigger,
more permanent hammer and disable unreachable warnings for the whole
file when gcov is enabled. This is fine to do because a) unreachable
warnings are usually of questionable value; and b) gcov isn't used for
production kernels and we can relax the checks a bit there.

GCC 6 added a new switch statement jump table optimization which makes
objtool's life harder. It looks like:
mov [rodata addr],%reg1
... some instructions ...
jmpq *(%reg1,%reg2,8)
The optimization is quite rare, but objtool still needs to be able to
identify the pattern so that it can follow all possible control flow
paths related to the switch statement.
In order to detect the pattern, objtool starts from the indirect jump
and scans backwards through the function until it finds the first
instruction in the pattern. If it encounters an unconditional jump
along the way, it stops and considers the pattern to be not found.
As it turns out, unconditional jumps can happen, as long as they are
small forward jumps within the range being scanned.
This fixes the following warnings:
drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_comp.o: warning: objtool: rxe_completer()+0x2f4: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.o: warning: objtool: rxe_responder()+0x10f: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer

objtool reports the following new warning:
kernel/exit.o: warning: objtool: do_exit() falls through to next function complete_and_exit()
The warning is caused by do_exit()'s new call to do_task_dead(), which
is a new "noreturn" function which objtool doesn't know about yet,
introduced by:
9af6528ee9 ("sched/core: Optimize __schedule()")
( objtool has to know all the global noreturn functions so it can follow
the control flow of any functions which call them. Unfortunately they
need to be hard-coded because there's no automated way to detect them. )

This fixes some false positive objtool warnings seen with gcc 6.1.1:
kernel/trace/ring_buffer.o: warning: objtool: ring_buffer_read_page()+0x36c: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
arch/x86/kernel/reboot.o: warning: objtool: native_machine_emergency_restart()+0x139: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
lib/xz/xz_dec_stream.o: warning: objtool: xz_dec_run()+0xc2: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
With GCC 6, a new code pattern is sometimes used to access a switch
statement jump table in .rodata, which objtool doesn't yet recognize:
mov [rodata addr],%reg1
... some instructions ...
jmpq *(%reg1,%reg2,8)
Add support for detecting that pattern. The detection code is rather
crude, but it's still effective at weeding out false positives and
catching real warnings. It can be refined later once objtool starts
reading DWARF CFI.
