[PATCH v4 02/10] kbuild: Support for Symbols.list creation

Joe Lawrence

From: Joao Moreira <jmoreira@suse.de>

For automatic resolution of livepatch relocations, a file called
Symbols.list is used. This file maps symbols within every compiled
kernel object allowing the identification of symbols whose name is
unique, thus relocation can be automatically inferred, or providing
information that helps developers when code annotation is required for
solving the matter.

Add support for creating Symbols.list in the main Makefile. First,
ensure that built-in is compiled when CONFIG_LIVEPATCH is enabled (as
required to achieve a complete Symbols.list file). Define the command to
build Symbols.list (cmd_klp_map) and hook it in the modules rule.

As it is undesirable to have symbols from livepatch objects inside
Symbols.list, make livepatches discernible by modifying
scripts/Makefile.build to create a .livepatch file for each livepatch
in $(MODVERDIR). This file then used by cmd_klp_map to identify and
bypass livepatches.

For identifying livepatches during the build process, a flag variable
LIVEPATCH_$(basetarget).o is considered in scripts/Makefile.build. This
way, set this flag for the livepatch sample Makefile in
samples/livepatch/Makefile.

Finally, Add a clean rule to ensure that Symbols.list is removed during
clean.

Notes:

To achieve a correct Symbols.list file, all kernel objects must be
considered, thus, its construction require these objects to be priorly
built. On the other hand, invoking scripts/Makefile.modpost without
having a complete Symbols.list in place would occasionally lead to
in-tree livepatches being post-processed incorrectly. To prevent this
from becoming a circular dependency, the construction of Symbols.list
uses non-post-processed kernel objects and such does not cause harm as
the symbols normally referenced from within livepatches are visible at
this stage. Also due to these requirements, the spot in-between modules
compilation and the invocation of scripts/Makefile.modpost was picked
for hooking cmd_klp_map.

The approach based on .livepatch files was proposed as an alternative
to using MODULE_INFO statements. This approach was originally
proposed by Miroslav Benes as a workaround for identifying livepathes
without depending on modinfo during the modpost stage. It was moved to
this patch as the approach also shown to be useful while building
Symbols.list.
