objtool: Fix ARCH=x86_64 build error

2020-01-22T06:54:57Z

Building objtool with ARCH=x86_64 fails with: $make ARCH=x86_64 -C tools/objtool ... CC arch/x86/decode.o arch/x86/decode.c:10:22: fatal error: asm/insn.h: No such file or directory #include ^ compilation terminated. mv: cannot stat ‘arch/x86/.decode.o.tmp’: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [arch/x86/decode.o] Error 1 ... The root cause is that the command-line variable 'ARCH' cannot be overridden. It can be replaced by 'SRCARCH', which is defined in 'tools/scripts/Makefile.arch'.

objtool: Silence build output

2020-01-22T06:54:34Z

The sync-check.sh script prints out the path due to a "cd -" at the end of the script, even on silent builds. This isn't even needed, since the script is executed in our build instead of sourced (so it won't change the working directory of the surrounding build anyway). Just remove the cd to make the build silent.

Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle were: - Cross-arch changes to move the linker sections for NOTES and EXCEPTION_TABLE into the RO_DATA area, where they belong on most architectures. (Kees Cook) - Switch the x86 linker fill byte from x90 (NOP) to 0xcc (INT3), to trap jumps into the middle of those padding areas instead of sliding execution. (Kees Cook) - A thorough cleanup of symbol definitions within x86 assembler code. The rather randomly named macros got streamlined around a (hopefully) straightforward naming scheme: SYM_START(name, linkage, align...) SYM_END(name, sym_type) SYM_FUNC_START(name) SYM_FUNC_END(name) SYM_CODE_START(name) SYM_CODE_END(name) SYM_DATA_START(name) SYM_DATA_END(name) etc - with about three times of these basic primitives with some label, local symbol or attribute variant, expressed via postfixes.

ubsan, x86: Annotate and allow __ubsan_handle_shift_out_of_bounds() in uaccess regions

2019-10-28T09:43:00Z

The new check_zeroed_user() function uses variable shifts inside of a user_access_begin()/user_access_end() section and that results in GCC emitting __ubsan_handle_shift_out_of_bounds() calls, even though through value range analysis it would be able to see that the UB in question is impossible. Annotate and whitelist this UBSAN function; continued use of user_access_begin()/user_access_end() will undoubtedly result in further uses of function.

x86: xen: insn: Decode Xen and KVM emulate-prefix signature

2019-10-17T19:31:57Z

Decode Xen and KVM's emulate-prefix signature by x86 insn decoder. It is called "prefix" but actually not x86 instruction prefix, so this adds insn.emulate_prefix_size field instead of reusing insn.prefixes. If x86 decoder finds a special sequence of instructions of XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX and 'ud2a; .ascii "kvm"', it just counts the length, set insn.emulate_prefix_size and fold it with the next instruction. In other words, the signature and the next instruction is treated as a single instruction.

objtool: add kunit_try_catch_throw to the noreturn list

2019-09-30T23:35:01Z

Fix the following warning seen on GCC 7.3: kunit/test-test.o: warning: objtool: kunit_test_unsuccessful_try() falls through to next function kunit_test_catch() kunit_try_catch_throw is a function added in the following patch in this series; it allows KUnit, a unit testing framework for the kernel, to bail out of a broken test. As a consequence, it is a new __noreturn function that objtool thinks is broken (as seen above). So fix this warning by adding kunit_try_catch_throw to objtool's noreturn list.

KVM: x86: Check kvm_rebooting in kvm_spurious_fault()

2019-09-25T13:23:33Z

Explicitly check kvm_rebooting in kvm_spurious_fault() prior to invoking BUG(), as opposed to assuming the caller has already done so. Letting kvm_spurious_fault() be called "directly" will allow VMX to better optimize its low level assembly flows. As a happy side effect, kvm_spurious_fault() no longer needs to be marked as a dead end since it doesn't unconditionally BUG().

objtool: Clobber user CFLAGS variable

2019-09-10T06:49:52Z

If the build user has the CFLAGS variable set in their environment, objtool blindly appends to it, which can cause unexpected behavior. Clobber CFLAGS to ensure consistent objtool compilation behavior.
