[PATCH v1 00/27] x86: PIE support and option to extend KASLR randomization

[Thomas Garnier <thgarnie@google.com>]

Changes:
 - patch v1:
   - Simplify ftrace implementation.
   - Use gcc mstack-protector-guard-reg=%gs with PIE when possible.
 - rfc v3:
   - Use --emit-relocs instead of -pie to reduce dynamic relocation space on
     mapped memory. It also simplifies the relocation process.
   - Move the start the module section next to the kernel. Remove the need for
     -mcmodel=large on modules. Extends module space from 1 to 2G maximum.
   - Support for XEN PVH as 32-bit relocations can be ignored with
     --emit-relocs.
   - Support for GOT relocations previously done automatically with -pie.
   - Remove need for dynamic PLT in modules.
   - Support dymamic GOT for modules.
 - rfc v2:
   - Add support for global stack cookie while compiler default to fs without
     mcmodel=kernel
   - Change patch 7 to correctly jump out of the identity mapping on kexec load
     preserve.

These patches make the changes necessary to build the kernel as Position
Independent Executable (PIE) on x86_64. A PIE kernel can be relocated below
the top 2G of the virtual address space. It allows to optionally extend the
KASLR randomization range from 1G to 3G.

Thanks a lot to Ard Biesheuvel & Kees Cook on their feedback on compiler
changes, PIE support and KASLR in general. Thanks to Roland McGrath on his
feedback for using -pie versus --emit-relocs and details on compiler code
generation.

The patches:
 - 1-3, 5-1#, 17-18: Change in assembly code to be PIE compliant.
 - 4: Add a new _ASM_GET_PTR macro to fetch a symbol address generically.
 - 14: Adapt percpu design to work correctly when PIE is enabled.
 - 15: Provide an option to default visibility to hidden except for key symbols.
       It removes errors between compilation units.
 - 16: Adapt relocation tool to handle PIE binary correctly.
 - 19: Add support for global cookie.
 - 20: Support ftrace with PIE (used on Ubuntu config).
 - 21: Fix incorrect address marker on dump_pagetables.
 - 22: Add option to move the module section just after the kernel.
 - 23: Adapt module loading to support PIE with dynamic GOT.
 - 24: Make the GOT read-only.
 - 25: Add the CONFIG_X86_PIE option (off by default).
 - 26: Adapt relocation tool to generate a 64-bit relocation table.
 - 27: Add the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_LARGE option to increase relocation range
       from 1G to 3G (off by default).

Performance/Size impact:

Size of vmlinux (Default configuration):
 File size:
 - PIE disabled: +0.000031%
 - PIE enabled: -3.210% (less relocations)
 .text section:
 - PIE disabled: +0.000644%
 - PIE enabled: +0.837%

Size of vmlinux (Ubuntu configuration):
 File size:
 - PIE disabled: -0.201%
 - PIE enabled: -0.082%
 .text section:
 - PIE disabled: same
 - PIE enabled: +1.319%

Size of vmlinux (Default configuration + ORC):
 File size:
 - PIE enabled: -3.167%
 .text section:
 - PIE enabled: +0.814%

Size of vmlinux (Ubuntu configuration + ORC):
 File size:
 - PIE enabled: -3.167%
 .text section:
 - PIE enabled: +1.26%

The size increase is mainly due to not having access to the 32-bit signed
relocation that can be used with mcmodel=kernel. A small part is due to reduced
optimization for PIE code. This bug [1] was opened with gcc to provide a better
code generation for kernel PIE.

Hackbench (50% and 1600% on thread/process for pipe/sockets):
 - PIE disabled: no significant change (avg +0.1% on latest test).
 - PIE enabled: between -0.50% to +0.86% in average (default and Ubuntu config).

slab_test (average of 10 runs):
 - PIE disabled: no significant change (-2% on latest run, likely noise).
 - PIE enabled: between -1% and +0.8% on latest runs.

Kernbench (average of 10 Half and Optimal runs):
 Elapsed Time:
 - PIE disabled: no significant change (avg -0.239%)
 - PIE enabled: average +0.07%
 System Time:
 - PIE disabled: no significant change (avg -0.277%)
 - PIE enabled: average +0.7%
