2022-11-16scripts/faddr2line: Fix regression in name resolution on ppc64leSrikar Dronamraju
Commit 1d1a0e7c5100 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures") can cause faddr2line to fail on ppc64le on some distributions, while it works fine on other distributions. The failure can be attributed to differences in the readelf output. $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux find_busiest_group+0x00 no match for find_busiest_group+0x00 On ppc64le, readelf adds the localentry tag before the symbol name on some distributions, and adds the localentry tag after the symbol name on other distributions. This problem has been discussed previously: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20191211160133.GB4580@calabresa/ This problem can be overcome by filtering out the localentry tags in the readelf output. Similar fixes are already present in the kernel by way of the following commits: 1fd6cee127e2 ("libbpf: Fix VERSIONED_SYM_COUNT number parsing") aa915931ac3e ("libbpf: Fix readelf output parsing for Fedora") [jpoimboe: rework commit log] Fixes: 1d1a0e7c5100 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures") Signed-off-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Naveen N.

2022-08-02scripts/faddr2line: Fix vmlinux detection on arm64Josh Poimboeuf
Since commit dcea997beed6 ("faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures, the sequel"), faddr2line is completely broken on arm64. For some reason, on arm64, the vmlinux ELF object file type is ET_DYN rather than ET_EXEC. Check for both when determining whether the object is vmlinux. Modules and vmlinux.o have type ET_REL on all arches.

2022-06-06faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures, the sequelJosh Poimboeuf
If a function lives in a section other than .text, but .text also exists in the object, faddr2line may wrongly assume .text. This can result in comically wrong output. For example: $ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x1c enter_from_user_mode+0x1c/0x30: find_next_bit at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/./include/linux/find.h:40 (inlined by) perf_clear_dirty_counters at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/arch/x86/events/core.c:2504 Fix it by passing the section name to addr2line, unless the object file is vmlinux, in which case the symbol table uses absolute addresses.

2022-05-12scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failuresJosh Poimboeuf
There have been some recent reports of faddr2line failures: $ scripts/faddr2line sound/soundcore.ko sound_devnode+0x5/0x35 bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000 $ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x24 bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000005fe0 end: 0x0000000000005fe0 The problem is that faddr2line is based on 'nm', which has a major limitation: it doesn't know how to distinguish between different text sections. So if an offset exists in multiple text sections in the object, it may fail. Rewrite faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on readelf.

Commit 6870c0165feaa5 ("scripts/faddr2line: show the code context") radically altered the output format of the faddr2line tool. And while the new list output format might have merit it broke my vim usage and was hard to read. Make the new format optional; using a '--list' argument and attempt to make the output slightly easier to read by adding a little whitespace to separate the different files and explicitly mark the line in question.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-10-12scripts: fix faddr2line to work on last symbolNeilBrown

2016-10-25scripts/faddr2line: Fix "size mismatch" errorJosh Poimboeuf
I'm not sure how we missed this problem before. When I take a function address and size from an oops and give it to faddr2line, it usually complains about a size mismatch: $ scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60 skipping write_sysrq_trigger address at 0xffffffff815731a1 due to size mismatch (0x60 != 83) no match for write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60 The problem is caused by differences in how kallsyms and faddr2line determine a function's size. kallsyms calculates a function's size by parsing the output of 'nm -n' and subtracting the next function's address from the current function's address. This means that nop instructions after the end of the function are included in the size. In contrast, faddr2line reads the size from the symbol table, which does *not* include the ending nops in the function's size. Change faddr2line to calculate the size from the output of 'nm -n' to be consistent with kallsyms and oops outputs.

2016-09-19scripts/faddr2line: improve on base path filtering a bitLinus Torvalds
Due to our compiler include directives, the build pathnames for header files often end up being of the form "$srcdir/./include/linux/xyz.h", which ends up having that extra "." path component after the build base in it. Teach faddr2line to skip that too, to make code generated in inline functions in header files match the filename for the regular C files. Rabin Vincent pointed out that I can't make a stricter regexp match by using the " at " prefix for the pathname, because that ends up being locale-dependent. But this does require that the path match be preceded by a space, to make it a bit more strict (that matters mainly if we didn't find any base_dir at all, and we only end up with the "./" part of the match) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Rabin Vincent <rabin@rab.in> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
