objtool: Allow alternatives to be ignored

2018-01-11T23:14:28Z

Getting objtool to understand retpolines is going to be a bit of a challenge. For now, take advantage of the fact that retpolines are patched in with alternatives. Just read the original (sane) non-alternative instruction, and ignore the patched-in retpoline. This allows objtool to understand the control flow *around* the retpoline, even if it can't yet follow what's inside. This means the ORC unwinder will fail to unwind from inside a retpoline, but will work fine otherwise.

objtool: Detect jumps to retpoline thunks

2018-01-11T23:14:28Z

A direct jump to a retpoline thunk is really an indirect jump in disguise. Change the objtool instruction type accordingly. Objtool needs to know where indirect branches are so it can detect switch statement jump tables. This fixes a bunch of warnings with CONFIG_RETPOLINE like: arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_nhmex.o: warning: objtool: nhmex_rbox_msr_enable_event()+0x44: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame kernel/signal.o: warning: objtool: copy_siginfo_to_user()+0x91: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame ...

objtool: Don't report end of section error after an empty unwind hint

2017-09-28T07:39:02Z

If asm code specifies an UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY hint, don't warn if the section ends unexpectedly. This can happen with the xen-head.S code because the hypercall_page is "text" but it's all zeros.

objtool: Handle another GCC stack pointer adjustment bug

2017-09-23T13:06:19Z

The kbuild bot reported the following warning with GCC 4.4 and a randconfig: net/socket.o: warning: objtool: compat_sock_ioctl()+0x1083: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+160 cfa2=-1+0 This is caused by another GCC non-optimization, where it backs up and restores the stack pointer for no apparent reason: 2f91: 48 89 e0 mov %rsp,%rax 2f94: 4c 89 e7 mov %r12,%rdi 2f97: 4c 89 f6 mov %r14,%rsi 2f9a: ba 20 00 00 00 mov $0x20,%edx 2f9f: 48 89 c4 mov %rax,%rsp This issue would have been happily ignored before the following commit: dd88a0a0c861 ("objtool: Handle GCC stack pointer adjustment bug") But now that objtool is paying attention to such stack pointer writes to/from a register, it needs to understand them properly. In this case that means recognizing that the "mov %rsp, %rax" instruction is potentially a backup of the stack pointer.

objtool: Handle GCC stack pointer adjustment bug

2017-08-30T08:48:41Z

Arnd Bergmann reported the following warning with GCC 7.1.1: fs/fs_pin.o: warning: objtool: pin_kill()+0x139: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+88 cfa2=7+96 And the kbuild robot reported the following warnings with GCC 5.4.1: fs/fs_pin.o: warning: objtool: pin_kill()+0x182: return with modified stack frame fs/quota/dquot.o: warning: objtool: dquot_alloc_inode()+0x140: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+120 cfa2=7+128 fs/quota/dquot.o: warning: objtool: dquot_free_inode()+0x11a: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+112 cfa2=7+120 Those warnings are caused by an unusual GCC non-optimization where it uses an intermediate register to adjust the stack pointer. It does: lea 0x8(%rsp), %rcx ... mov %rcx, %rsp Instead of the obvious: add $0x8, %rsp It makes no sense to use an intermediate register, so I opened a GCC bug to track it: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=81813 But it's not exactly a high-priority bug and it looks like we'll be stuck with this issue for a while. So for now we have to track register values when they're loaded with stack pointer offsets. This is kind of a big workaround for a tiny problem, but c'est la vie. I hope to eventually create a GCC plugin to implement a big chunk of objtool's functionality. Hopefully at that point we'll be able to remove of a lot of these GCC-isms from the objtool code.

objtool: Fix objtool fallthrough detection with function padding

2017-08-21T14:06:05Z

When GCC adds NOP padding between functions, those NOPs aren't associated with a function symbol, which breaks objtool's detection of a function falling through to another function. Instead it shows confusing errors like: drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_util.o: warning: objtool: cfi_qry_mode_on()+0x8b: return with modified stack frame drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_util.o: warning: objtool: cfi_qry_mode_on()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=-4-32 cfa2=7+8 drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: fixup_use_fwh_lock()+0x8: unknown stack-related register move drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: fixup_use_fwh_lock()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=6+16 cfa2=7+8 drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: do_otp_write()+0xa: unsupported stack pointer realignment drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: do_otp_write()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=-4-40 cfa2=7+8 Reported-by: kbuild test robot Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/43e7aae9a7a7710cd6df597fa9dc501da4ba0602.1502472193.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

objtool: Track DRAP separately from callee-saved registers

2017-08-11T12:06:15Z

When GCC realigns a function's stack, it sometimes uses %r13 as the DRAP register, like: push %r13 lea 0x10(%rsp), %r13 and $0xfffffffffffffff0, %rsp pushq -0x8(%r13) push %rbp mov %rsp, %rbp push %r13 ... mov -0x8(%rbp),%r13 leaveq lea -0x10(%r13), %rsp pop %r13 retq Since %r13 was pushed onto the stack twice, its two stack locations need to be stored separately. The first push of %r13 is its original value, and the second push of %r13 is the caller's stack frame address. Since %r13 is a callee-saved register, we need to track the stack location of its original value separately from the DRAP register.

objtool: Fix validate_branch() return codes

The validate_branch() function should never return a negative value.
