Reintroduce the __kvm_nvhe_ symbols in kallsyms, ignoring the local
symbols in this namespace. The local symbols are not informative and
can cause aliasing issues when symbolizing the addresses.
With the necessary symbols now in kallsyms we can symbolize nVHE
addresses using the %p print format specifier:
[ 98.916444][ T426] kvm [426]: nVHE hyp panic at: [<ffffffc0096156fc>] __kvm_nvhe_overflow_stack+0x8/0x34!

The llvm compiler can generate lots of local labels ('.LBB', '.Ltmpxxx',
'.L__unnamed_xx', etc.). These symbols usually are useless for debugging.
And they might overlap with handwritten symbols.
Before this change, a dumpstack shows a local symbol for epc:
[ 0.040341][ T0] Hardware name: riscv-virtio,qemu (DT)
[ 0.040376][ T0] epc : .LBB6_14+0x22/0x6a
[ 0.040452][ T0] ra : restore_all+0x12/0x6e
The simple solution is that we can ignore all local labels prefixed by '.L'.
For handwritten symbols which need to be preserved should drop the '.L'
prefix.
After this change, the C defined symbol is shown so we can locate the
problematical code immediately:
[ 0.035795][ T0] Hardware name: riscv-virtio,qemu (DT)
[ 0.036332][ T0] epc : trace_hardirqs_on+0x54/0x13c

ARM randconfig builds with lld sometimes show a build failure
from kallsyms:
Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround
The problem is the veneers/thunks getting added by the linker extend
the symbol table, which in turn leads to more veneers being needed,
so it may take a few extra iterations to converge.
This bug has been fixed multiple times before, but comes back every time
a new symbol name is used. lld uses a different set of identifiers from
ld.bfd, so the additional ones need to be added as well.
I looked through the sources and found that arm64 and mips define similar
prefixes, so I'm adding those as well, aside from the ones I observed. I'm
not sure about powerpc64, which seems to already be handled through a
section match, but if it comes back, the "__long_branch_" and "__plt_"
prefixes would have to get added as well.

PowerPC allmodconfig often fails to build as follows:
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
KSYM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
KSYM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms3
KSYM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms3.o
LD vmlinux
SORTTAB vmlinux
SYSMAP System.map
Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround
make[2]: *** [../Makefile:1162: vmlinux] Error 1
Setting KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 does not help.
This is caused by the compiler inserting stubs such as *.long_branch.*
and *.plt_branch.*
$ powerpc-linux-nm -n .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
[ snip ]
c00000000210c010 t 00000075.plt_branch.da9:19
c00000000210c020 t 00000075.plt_branch.1677:5

c00000000210c044 t 00000075.plt_branch.free_initrd_mem
...
Actually, the problem mentioned in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh comments;
"In theory it's possible this results in even more stubs, but unlikely"
is happening here, and ends up with another kallsyms step required.
scripts/kallsyms.c already ignores various compiler stubs. Let's do
similar to make kallsysms for PowerPC always succeed in 2 steps.

Add new folders arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/{vhe,nvhe} and Makefiles for building code
that runs in EL2 under VHE/nVHE KVM, repsectivelly. Add an include folder for
hyp-specific header files which will include code common to VHE/nVHE.
Build nVHE code with -D__KVM_NVHE_HYPERVISOR__, VHE code with
-D__KVM_VHE_HYPERVISOR__.
Under nVHE compile each source file into a `.hyp.tmp.o` object first, then
prefix all its symbols with "__kvm_nvhe_" using `objcopy` and produce
a `.hyp.o`. Suffixes were chosen so that it would be possible for VHE and nVHE
to share some source files, but compiled with different CFLAGS.
The nVHE ELF symbol prefix is added to kallsyms.c as ignored. EL2-only symbols
will never appear in EL1 stack traces.
Due to symbol prefixing, add a section in image-vars.h for aliases of symbols
that are defined in nVHE EL2 and accessed by kernel in EL1 or vice versa.

Due to a bug-report that was compiler-dependent, I updated one of my
machines to gcc-10. That shows a lot of new warnings. Happily they
seem to be mostly the valid kind, but it's going to cause a round of
churn for getting rid of them..
This is the really low-hanging fruit of removing a couple of zero-sized
arrays in some core code. We have had a round of these patches before,
and we'll have many more coming, and there is nothing special about
these except that they were particularly trivial, and triggered more
warnings than most.

There is the code in the read_symbol function in 'scripts/kallsyms.c':
if (is_ignored_symbol(name, type))
return NULL;
/* Ignore most absolute/undefined (?) symbols. */
if (strcmp(name, "_text") == 0)
_text = addr;
But the is_ignored_symbol function returns true for name="_text" and
type='A'. So the next condition is not executed and the _text variable
is always zero.
It makes the wrong kallsyms_relative_base symbol as a result of the code
(CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE is defined):
if (base_relative) {
output_label("kallsyms_relative_base");
output_address(relative_base);
printf("\n");
}
Because the output_address function uses the _text variable.
So the kallsyms_lookup function and all related functions in the kernel
do not work properly. For example, the stack trace in oops:
Call Trace:
[aa095e58] [809feab8] kobj_ns_ops_tbl+0x7ff09ac8/0x7ff1c1c4 (unreliable)

The symbol table is extended every 10000 addition by using realloc(),
where data copy might occur to the new buffer.
To decrease the amount of possible data copy, let's change the table

Since commit 5e5c4fa78745 ("scripts/kallsyms: shrink table before
sorting it"), kallsyms_relative_base can be larger than _text, which
causes overflow when building the 32-bit kernel.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/7/156
This is because _text is, unless --all-symbols is specified, now
trimmed from the symbol table before record_relative_base() is called.
Handle the offset signedness also for kallsyms_relative_base. Introduce
a new helper, output_address(), to reduce the code duplication.

sym_entry::sym is (unsigned char *) instead of (char *) because
kallsyms exploits the MSB for compression, and the characters are
used as the index of token_profit array.
However, it requires casting (unsigned char *) to (char *) in some
places since standard library functions such as strcmp(), strlen()
expect (char *).
Introduce a new helper, sym_name(), which advances the given pointer
by 1 and casts it to (char *).

Currently, record_relative_base() iterates over the entire table to
find the minimum address, but it is not efficient because we sort
the table anyway.
After sort_symbol(), the table is sorted by address. (kallsyms parses
the 'nm -n' output, so the data is already sorted by address, but this
commit does not rely on it.)
Move record_relative_base() after sort_symbols(), and take the first
non-absolute symbol value.

As mentioned in the info pages of gas, the '.align' pseudo op's
interpretation of the alignment value is architecture specific.
It might either be a byte value or taken to the power of two.
On ARM it's actually the latter which leads to unnecessary large
alignments of 16 bytes for 32 bit builds or 256 bytes for 64 bit
builds.
Fix this by switching to '.balign' instead which is consistent
across all architectures.

On arm64, the EFI stub and the kernel proper are essentially the same
binary, although the EFI stub executes at a different virtual address
as the kernel. For this reason, the EFI stub is restricted in the
symbols it can link to, which is ensured by prefixing all EFI stub
symbols with __efistub_ (and emitting __efistub_ prefixed aliases for
routines that may be shared between the core kernel and the stub)
These symbols are leaking into kallsyms, polluting the namespace, so
let's filter them explicitly.

gcc on aarch64 may emit synbols of type 'n' if the kernel is built with
'-frecord-gcc-switches'. In most cases, those symbols are reported with
nm as
000000000000000e n $d
and with objdump as
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 $d
Those symbols are detected in is_arm_mapping_symbol() and ignored.
However, if "--prefix-symbols=<prefix>" is configured as well, the
situation is different. For example, in efi/libstub, arm64 images are
built with
'--prefix-alloc-sections=.init --prefix-symbols=__efistub_'.
In combination with '-frecord-gcc-switches', the symbols are now reported
by nm as:
000000000000000e n __efistub_$d
and by objdump as:
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 __efistub_$d
Those symbols are no longer ignored and included in the base address
calculation. This results in a base address of 000000000000000e, which
in turn causes kallsyms to abort with
kallsyms failure:
relative symbol value 0xffffff900800a000 out of range in relative mode
The problem is seen in little endian arm64 builds with CONFIG_EFI
enabled and with '-frecord-gcc-switches' set in KCFLAGS.
Explicitly ignore symbols of type 'n' since those are clearly debug
symbols.

This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit
vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel
where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs
being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at
runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)
For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following:
- introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS
- adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols
as references into the .rodata section
- making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols
by the section index (SHN_ABS)
- making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix

The --page-offset command line option was only used for ARM, to filter
symbol addresses below CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET. This is no longer needed, so
remove the functionality altogether.

On ARM, the linker may emit veneers to deal with relative branch
instructions that appear too far away from their targets. Since the
second kallsyms pass results in an increase of the kernel size, it may
result in additional veneers to be emitted, potentially affecting the
output of kallsyms itself if these symbols are visible to it, and for
that reason, symbols whose names end in '_veneer' are ignored explicitly.
However, when building Thumb2 kernels, such veneers are named differently
if they also incur a mode switch, and since they are not filtered by
kallsyms, they may cause the build to fail. So filter symbols whose names
end in '_from_arm' or '_from_thumb' as well.

Similar to how relative extables are implemented, it is possible to emit
the kallsyms table in such a way that it contains offsets relative to
some anchor point in the kernel image rather than absolute addresses.
On 64-bit architectures, it cuts the size of the kallsyms address table
in half, since offsets between kernel symbols can typically be expressed
in 32 bits. This saves several hundreds of kilobytes of permanent
.rodata on average. In addition, the kallsyms address table is no
longer subject to dynamic relocation when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is in
effect, so the relocation work done after decompression now doesn't have
to do relocation updates for all these values. This saves up to 24
bytes (i.e., the size of a ELF64 RELA relocation table entry) per value,
which easily adds up to a couple of megabytes of uncompressed __init
data on ppc64 or arm64. Even if these relocation entries typically
compress well, the combined size reduction of 2.8 MB uncompressed for a
ppc64_defconfig build (of which 2.4 MB is __init data) results in a ~500
KB space saving in the compressed image.
Since it is useful for some architectures (like x86) to retain the
ability to emit absolute values as well, this patch also adds support
for capturing both absolute and relative values when
KALLSYMS_ABSOLUTE_PERCPU is in effect, by emitting absolute per-cpu
addresses as positive 32-bit values, and addresses relative to the
lowest encountered relative symbol as negative values, which are
subtracted from the runtime address of this base symbol to produce the
actual address.
Support for the above is enabled by default for all architectures except
IA-64 and Tile-GX, whose symbols are too far apart to capture in this
manner.
