From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
objtool needs to split the kernel's special sections into per-entry
symbols when generating livepatch modules. Mark them so it can:
- .altinstructions and __ex_table are read-only, so set an explicit
entry size via SHF_MERGE (ALT_INSTR_SIZE / EXTABLE_SIZE).
- __bug_table and __jump_table are writable. SHF_MERGE cannot be
combined with SHF_WRITE (Clang rejects it), so annotate each entry
with ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL instead, mirroring x86/arm64.

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
On LoongArch, the klp relocation machinery redirects a livepatch's
reference to a core-kernel symbol through a GOT entry. klp-build extracts
the patched function into a separate module while the referenced symbol
stays in the core kernel, so the reference must be GOT-indirect for that
redirect to work. Two default compiler behaviours defeat this and make a
loaded livepatch module fault.
The first is a same-unit global (the syscall test patches sys_newuname()
in kernel/sys.c, which reads 'uts_sem', a rw_semaphore defined in the
same file). With CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y the kernel is built -fPIE. For
a global defined in the same unit, -fPIE emits a direct PC-relative
reference (R_LARCH_PCALA_*) and skips the GOT, while -fPIC routes it
through the GOT (R_LARCH_GOT_PC_*). Once klp-build moves the patched
function into the livepatch module, the direct reference has no GOT
slot to redirect and faults.
The second is an extern global. -mdirect-extern-access replaces GOT-based
external symbol access with direct addressing. A livepatch reference to
such a symbol then has no GOT slot to fix up, and the wrong address faults
the kernel. This optimization was added by commit 38b10b269d04
("LoongArch: Tweak CFLAGS for Clang compatibility") as a nice-to-have that
reduces GOT accesses.
For LoongArch KLP builds, keep both forms GOT-indirect:
- Add -fPIC via KCFLAGS. -fPIE is not enough; it optimizes away the very
GOT indirection KLP relies on.
- Disable direct-extern-access: -mno-direct-extern-access for GCC,
-fno-direct-access-external-data for Clang.

Implement arch_jump_opcode_bytes() for LoongArch so that klp checksums
for jump/call instructions with non-relocated destination offsets are
position-independent, mirroring the x86 and arm64 implementations.
Mask out the embedded branch offset while preserving the opcode and the
register operands, which differ per instruction format:
- B/BL (reg0i26): no regs -> 0xfc000000
- BEQZ/BNEZ/BCEQZ/BCNEZ (reg1i21): keep rj/cj -> 0xfc0003e0
- JIRL/BEQ/BNE/.../BGEU (reg2i16): keep rj/rd -> 0xfc0003ff

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
arch/loongarch/Makefile uses -fpatchable-function-entry=2 when
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is set, but nothing selects
FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY, so kbuild falls back to
FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_RECORDMCOUNT and runs recordmcount on every object.
The pass is useless here: there are no _mcount calls to find, and the
real ftrace sites come from the __patchable_function_entries section
anyway.
It is not just wasted time. recordmcount needs a non-weak symbol in
each text section, to use as the base of the __mcount_loc relocations
it writes (see find_secsym_ndx()). GAS emits a section symbol for
every section, so GCC objects always have one. Clang's integrated
assembler drops unreferenced section symbols, so a clang object must
use the function's own symbol -- but find_secsym_ndx() skips weak
symbols. So with -ffunction-sections (which klp-build uses), a __weak
function like sched_clock is alone in its section with no usable
symbol, and recordmcount fails:
Cannot find symbol for section 5: .text.sched_clock.
kernel/sched/build_utility.o: failed
Select FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY like arm64 and riscv
do, which disables the recordmcount pass altogether.

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
Some toolchains reference an object through a local assembler label (.L*)
rather than a section symbol plus offset. The assembler keeps the label
because a "section + constant offset" reference would go stale under
linker relaxation, while a symbol reference can be recomputed afterwards.
Such labels are assembler-local, absent from kallsyms, and are never
cloned into the livepatch object.
Two toolchains hit this:
- GCC/GAS on LoongArch references special section entries (__ex_table,
__bug_table, __jump_table, .altinstructions) through local text
labels instead of a section symbol.
- Clang emits a switch jump table through a local label (.LJTI*) in a
SHF_MERGE|SHF_STRINGS .rodata section, where the table shares the
section with the livepatch's klp_func name strings.
convert_reloc_secsym_to_sym() only handled the section symbol form and
returned early for a label reference, so the label was never converted
and the reference resolved incorrectly, with no error at build or load
time:
- GCC: should_keep_special_sym() cannot correlate the entry with an
included function and silently drops it, so the livepatch module is
missing the patched function's __ex_table / __bug_table /
__jump_table entries.
- Clang: the jump table is not cloned, and its base label resolves into
the name strings that occupy the same offset; the switch's indirect
jump then lands on a wild address and the patched function oopses at
runtime.
Redirect a local label reference off the label, mirroring the section
symbol case:
- In a text section, to the containing function symbol. A label with
no containing function symbol (e.g. hand-written asm in a plain .text
section) can't be correlated; skip it rather than failing, since such
entries belong to unchanged code and are dropped anyway.
- In a non-text section (e.g. the .rodata jump table), to the section
symbol plus the full offset.

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
create_fake_symbols() takes each annotated entry's offset from the
annotate relocation's addend alone. That works only when the
relocation points at the special section's section symbol. GCC/GAS
on LoongArch points it at the entry's local label instead, with a
zero addend: every entry then gets offset 0, the "distance to the
next annotation" size becomes 0, and the fallback sets the size to
the rest of the section.
So every fake symbol starts at offset 0 and covers the whole special
section. If any entry in the section belongs to a patched function,
should_keep_special_sym() keeps such a symbol, and the output module
gets the entire __bug_table (thousands of entries and klp
relocations) instead of just the patched function's entries.
Compute the offset as sym->offset + addend, which handles both the
section symbol form (sym->offset == 0) and the local label form
(addend == 0).

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
On LoongArch, the "key - ." field of a __jump_table entry can come out
as two relocations at the same offset, R_LARCH_ADD64 plus
R_LARCH_SUB64. clang's integrated assembler emits this pair when the
key symbol is not defined in the same translation unit (for example
__tracepoint_netif_rx); GAS, and clang for locally-defined keys,
produce a single R_LARCH_64_PCREL instead, which is why GCC builds do
not hit this. objtool's elf_create_reloc() allows only one relocation
per offset, so cloning such an entry fails with:
vmlinux.o: error: objtool: __jump_table_23683+0x8: duplicate reloc
When the SUB half points at the relocation's own position (the
"sym - ." pattern), the pair means the same thing as one PC-relative
relocation. Add arch_normalize_paired_reloc() which rewrites the ADD
half to R_LARCH_32_PCREL/R_LARCH_64_PCREL and skips the SUB half. The
LoongArch module loader supports both forms.

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
An ALTERNATIVE() emits its replacement instructions into a .subsection 1
placed after the patched function. When objtool clones the function into
a livepatch module, clone_inline_alternatives() clones that replacement
block too, but only for architectures that define ARCH_HAS_INLINE_ALTS.
LoongArch uses the same .subsection layout as arm64, and its alternative
macros now mark the replacement with ANNOTATE_DATA_SPECIAL (see "LoongArch:
Mark special sections for KLP support"). Define ARCH_HAS_INLINE_ALTS so
the replacement is cloned; otherwise a livepatch for a function containing
an ALTERNATIVE() fails to build with "can't find new instruction".
Reproduced by building a livepatch for a function containing an
ALTERNATIVE() (the base-vmlinux test).

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
With -mannotate-tablejump, LoongArch compilers emit a
.discard.tablejump_annotate section. Each entry is a pair of 8-byte
words: the address of a jump instruction and the address of its jump
table. objtool reads these pairs to find switch jump tables when
decoding.
klp-diff creates one fake symbol per 8-byte word and clones a word only
if should_keep_special_sym() accepts it. The default rule keeps a word
only if it references a function that was cloned into the output
module. The instruction-side word references the function and is
kept. The table-side word references the jump table via its .rodata
section symbol, which is not a function symbol, so it is dropped.
The cloned annotate section then holds only instruction-side words,
compacted together. The pairing is destroyed. Parsing the malformed
section crashes objtool on the patch module and no .ko is produced:
Building patch module: livepatch-shadow-newpid.ko
livepatch-shadow-newpid.o: error: SIGSEGV: objtool crash!
Keep all .discard.tablejump_annotate words whose referenced symbol has
been cloned.
Reproduced with the shadow-newpid test, which patches
proc_pid_status(). That function contains two switch jump tables.
Before, klp-diff clones only the instruction-side words:
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: _discard_tablejump_annotate_57441 [+DATA]
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: .discard.tablejump_annotate+0x0: proc_pid_status+0xc70 [FUNC GLOBAL]
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: _discard_tablejump_annotate_57443 [+DATA]
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: .discard.tablejump_annotate+0x8: proc_pid_status+0xd2c [FUNC GLOBAL]
After, the full pairs are kept, including the .rodata table words:
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: _discard_tablejump_annotate_57441 [+DATA]
DEBUG: vmlinux.o: .discard.tablejump_annotate+0x0: proc_pid_status+0xc70 [FUNC GLOBAL]

From: George Guo <guodongtai@kylinos.cn>
A livepatch module is mapped far more than the +-2GB reachable by a
pcalau12i/addi.d pair, so a klp relocation that resolves to a symbol in
vmlinux cannot be reached PC-relatively: the relocation overflows and
the patched function computes a wild pointer. Far calls are already
handled by the module loader, which redirects them through a PLT stub,
but there is no such indirection for data, whose address is
materialized inline.
Compilers emit the direct PC-relative form for any symbol they consider
local. In particular file-local 'static' data is never interposable, so
-fPIC does not route it through the GOT. This is correct for vmlinux and
for ordinary modules; it only breaks once klp-diff extracts the function
into the far livepatch module while its data stays behind. It is not
Clang-specific: GCC emits the same PC-relative form.
Add an arch hook, arch_klp_convert_reloc_to_got(), invoked when a klp
relocation is created, and implement it for LoongArch: rewrite the
reference to its GOT-indirect equivalent, which loads the full 64-bit
address from a GOT slot the module loader fills in:
pcalau12i rd, %pc_hi20(sym) -> pcalau12i rd, %got_pc_hi20(sym)
addi.d rd, rj, %pc_lo12(sym) -> ld.d rd, rj, %got_pc_lo12(sym)
The loader already sizes the module GOT from every SHT_RELA section that
targets executable code, including .klp.rela.*, so the slot is reserved
at load time and filled when the patch is enabled.
Only an adjacent, register-consistent pcalau12i/addi.d pair that
materializes an address can be converted. A PCALA_LO12 on any other
instruction is a load or store that reads the symbol directly; going
through the GOT there needs an extra instruction to dereference the
slot, and the function cannot grow without shifting every offset,
relocation and ORC entry. A pcalau12i shared by several addi.d with
different addends would likewise need one GOT slot per addend, which a
single GOT_PC_HI20 cannot express. Reject both rather than emit a
livepatch that is quietly broken.
The LoongArch decoder in tools/ lacks the reg1i20 instruction format
used to identify pcalau12i; add it to the tools/ copy of asm/inst.h.
Reproduced by a livepatch for proc_pid_status() (the shadow-newpid
test), which reads the file-local task_state_array[].
