[PATCH 6.12 057/204] scripts/sorttable: Remove unused macro defines

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 28b24394c6e9a3166fcb4480cba054562526657c ]

The code of sorttable.h was copied from the recordmcount.h  which defined
a bunch of Elf MACROs so that they could be used between 32bit and 64bit
functions. But there's several MACROs that sorttable.h does not use but
was copied over. Remove them to clean up the code.

[PATCH 6.12 058/204] scripts/sorttable: Remove unused write functions

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 4f48a28b37d594dab38092514a42ae9f4b781553 ]

The code of sorttable.h was copied from the recordmcount.h  which defined
various write functions for different sizes (2, 4, 8 byte lengths). But
sorttable only uses the 4 byte writes. Remove the extra versions as they
are not used.

[PATCH 6.12 060/204] scripts/sorttable: Have the ORC code use the _r() functions to read

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 66990c003306c240d570b3ba274ec4f68cf18c91 ]

The ORC code reads the section information directly from the file. This
currently works because the default read function is for 64bit little
endian machines. But if for some reason that ever changes, this will
break. Instead of having a surprise breakage, use the _r() functions that
will read the values from the file properly.

[PATCH 6.12 061/204] scripts/sorttable: Make compare_extable() into two functions

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 7ffc0d0819f438779ed592e2e2e3576f43ce14f0 ]

Instead of having the compare_extable() part of the sorttable.h header
where it get's defined twice, since it is a very simple function, just
define it twice in sorttable.c, and then it can use the proper read
functions for the word size and endianess and the Elf_Addr macro can be
removed from sorttable.h.

Also add a micro optimization. Instead of:

    if (a < b)
        return -1;
    if (a > b)
        return 1;
    return 0;

That can be shorten to:

   if (a < b)
      return -1;
   return a > b;

[PATCH 6.12 062/204] scripts/sorttable: Convert Elf_Ehdr to union

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 157fb5b3cfd2cb5950314f926a76e567fc1921c5 ]

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions for both, replace the Elf_Ehdr macro with a
union that defines both Elf64_Ehdr and Elf32_Ehdr, with field e64 for the
64bit version, and e32 for the 32bit version.

Then a macro etype can be used instead to get to the proper value.

This will eventually be replaced with just single functions that can
handle both 32bit and 64bit ELF parsing.

[PATCH 6.12 063/204] scripts/sorttable: Replace Elf_Shdr Macro with a union

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 545f6cf8f4c9a268e0bab2637f1d279679befdbf ]

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions for both, replace the Elf_Shdr macro with a
union that defines both Elf64_Shdr and Elf32_Shdr, with field e64 for the
64bit version, and e32 for the 32bit version.

It can then use the macro etype to get the proper value.

This will eventually be replaced with just single functions that can
handle both 32bit and 64bit ELF parsing.

[PATCH 6.12 065/204] scripts/sorttable: Add helper functions for Elf_Ehdr

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 1dfb59a228dde59ad7d99b2fa2104e90004995c7 ]

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions, add helper functions for Elf_Ehdr.  This
will create a function pointer for each helper that will get assigned to
the appropriate function to handle either the 64bit or 32bit version.

This also moves the _r()/r() wrappers for the Elf_Ehdr references that
handle endian and size differences between the different architectures,
into the helper function and out of the open code which is more error
prone.

[PATCH 6.12 066/204] scripts/sorttable: Add helper functions for Elf_Shdr

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 67afb7f504400e5b4e5ff895459fbb3eb63d4450 ]

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions, add helper functions for Elf_Shdr.  This
will create a function pointer for each helper that will get assigned to
the appropriate function to handle either the 64bit or 32bit version.

This also moves the _r()/r() wrappers for the Elf_Shdr references that
handle endian and size differences between the different architectures,
into the helper function and out of the open code which is more error
prone.

[PATCH 6.12 067/204] scripts/sorttable: Add helper functions for Elf_Sym

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 17bed33ac12f011f4695059960e1b1d6457229a7 ]

In order to remove the double #include of sorttable.h for 64 and 32 bit
to create duplicate functions, add helper functions for Elf_Sym.  This
will create a function pointer for each helper that will get assigned to
the appropriate function to handle either the 64bit or 32bit version.

This also removes the last references of etype and _r() macros from the
sorttable.h file as their references are now just defined in the
appropriate architecture version of the helper functions. All read
functions now exist in the helper functions which makes it easier to
maintain, as the helper functions define the necessary architecture sizes.

[PATCH 6.12 068/204] scripts/sorttable: Use uint64_t for mcount sorting

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 1b649e6ab8dc9188d82c64069493afe66ca0edad ]

The mcount sorting defines uint_t to uint64_t on 64bit architectures and
uint32_t on 32bit architectures. It can work with just using uint64_t as
that will hold the values of both, and they are not used to point into the
ELF file.

sizeof(uint_t) is used for defining the size of the mcount_loc section.
Instead of using a type, define long_size and use that instead. This will
allow the header code to be moved into the C file as generic functions and
not need to include sorttable.h twice, once for 64bit and once for 32bit.

[PATCH 6.12 069/204] scripts/sorttable: Move code from sorttable.h into sorttable.c

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 58d87678a0f46c6120904b4326aaf5ebf4454c69 ]

Instead of having the main code live in a header file and included twice
with MACROs that define the Elf structures for 64 bit or 32 bit, move the
code in the C file now that the Elf structures are defined in a union that
has both. All accesses to the Elf structure fields are done through helper
function pointers. If the file being parsed if for a 64 bit architecture,
all the helper functions point to the 64 bit versions to retrieve the Elf
fields. The same is true if the architecture is 32 bit, where the function
pointers will point to the 32 bit helper functions.

Note, when the value of a field can be either 32 bit or 64 bit, a 64 bit
is always returned, as it works for the 32 bit code as well.

This makes the code easier to read and maintain, and it now all exists in
sorttable.c and sorttable.h may be removed.

[PATCH 6.12 070/204] scripts/sorttable: Get start/stop_mcount_loc from ELF file directly

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 4acda8edefa1ce66d3de845f1c12745721cd14c3 ]

The get_mcount_loc() does a cheesy trick to find the start_mcount_loc and
stop_mcount_loc values. That trick is:

 file_start = popen(" grep start_mcount System.map | awk '{print $1}' ", "r");

and

 file_stop = popen(" grep stop_mcount System.map | awk '{print $1}' ", "r");

Those values are stored in the Elf symbol table. Use that to capture those
values. Using the symbol table is more efficient and more robust. The
above could fail if another variable had "start_mcount" or "stop_mcount"
as part of its name.

[PATCH 6.12 071/204] scripts/sorttable: Use a structure of function pointers for elf helpers

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 1e5f6771c247b28135307058d2cfe3b0153733dc ]

Instead of having a series of function pointers that gets assigned to the
Elf64 or Elf32 versions, put them all into a single structure and use
that. Add the helper function that chooses the structure into the macros
that build the different versions of the elf functions.

[PATCH 6.12 072/204] arm64: scripts/sorttable: Implement sorting mcount_loc at boot for arm64

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit b3d09d06e052e1d754645acea4e4d1e96f81c934 ]

The mcount_loc section holds the addresses of the functions that get
patched by ftrace when enabling function callbacks. It can contain tens of
thousands of entries. These addresses must be sorted. If they are not
sorted at compile time, they are sorted at boot. Sorting at boot does take
some time and does have a small impact on boot performance.

x86 and arm32 have the addresses in the mcount_loc section of the ELF
file. But for arm64, the section just contains zeros. The .rela.dyn
Elf_Rela section holds the addresses and they get patched at boot during
the relocation phase.

In order to sort these addresses, the Elf_Rela needs to be updated instead
of the location in the binary that holds the mcount_loc section. Have the
sorttable code, allocate an array to hold the functions, load the
addresses from the Elf_Rela entries, sort them, then put them back in
order into the Elf_rela entries so that they will be sorted at boot up
without having to sort them during boot up.

[PATCH 6.12 073/204] scripts/sorttable: Have mcount rela sort use direct values

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit a0265659322540d656727b9e132edfb6f06b6c1a ]

The mcount_loc sorting for when the values are stored in the Elf_Rela
entries uses the compare_extable() function to do the compares in the
qsort(). That function does handle byte swapping if the machine being
compiled for is a different endian than the host machine. But the
sort_relocs() function sorts an array that pulled in the values from the
Elf_Rela section and has already done the swapping.

Create two new compare functions that will sort the direct values. One
will sort 32 bit values and the other will sort the 64 bit value. One of
these will be assigned to a compare_values function pointer and that will
be used for sorting the Elf_Rela mcount values.

[PATCH 6.12 074/204] scripts/sorttable: Always use an array for the mcount_loc sorting

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 5fb964f5ba53afda0e2b6dbc00b8205461ffe04a ]

The sorting of the mcount_loc section is done directly to the section for
x86 and arm32 but it uses a separate array for arm64 as arm64 has the
values for the mcount_loc stored in the rela sections of the vmlinux ELF
file.

In order to use the same code to remove weak functions, always use a
separate array to do the sorting. This requires splitting up the filling
of the array into one function and the placing the contents of the array
back into the rela sections or into the mcount_loc section into a separate
file.

[ Upstream commit ef378c3b8233855497a414b9d67bf22592c928a4 ]

When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.

Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.

At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.

 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/

The commit b39181f7c6907 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid
adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function
address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the
function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would
print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset>

The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace
table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place
holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a
series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1)
lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method).

Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the
need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak
function into the ftrace table in the first place.

To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during
the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any
function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of
the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed
out.

Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR
will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the
mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the
kaslr_offset() value.

Before:

 ~# grep __ftrace_invalid_address___ /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions | wc -l
 551

After:

 ~# grep __ftrace_invalid_address___ /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions | wc -l
 0

[PATCH 6.12 076/204] ftrace: Update the mcount_loc check of skipped entries

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 4a3efc6baff931da9a85c6d2e42c87bd9a827399 ]

Now that weak functions turn into skipped entries, update the check to
make sure the amount that was allocated would fit both the entries that
were allocated as well as those that were skipped.

[PATCH 6.12 077/204] ftrace: Have ftrace pages output reflect freed pages

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 264143c4e54412095f4b615e65bf736fc3c60af0 ]

The amount of memory that ftrace uses to save the descriptors to manage
the functions it can trace is shown at output. But if there are a lot of
functions that are skipped because they were weak or the architecture
added holes into the tables, then the extra pages that were allocated are
freed. But these freed pages are not reflected in the numbers shown, and
they can even be inconsistent with what is reported:

 ftrace: allocating 57482 entries in 225 pages
 ftrace: allocated 224 pages with 3 groups

The above shows the number of original entries that are in the mcount_loc
section and the pages needed to save them (225), but the second output
reflects the number of pages that were actually used. The two should be
consistent as:

 ftrace: allocating 56739 entries in 224 pages
 ftrace: allocated 224 pages with 3 groups

The above also shows the accurate number of entires that were actually
stored and does not include the entries that were removed.
