d093601be5 x86-32, vdso: Fix vDSO build error due to missing align_vdso_addr()
Relying on static functions used just once to get inlined (and
subsequently have dead code paths eliminated) is wrong: Compilers are
free to decide whether they do this, regardless of optimization level.
With this not happening for vdso_addr() (observed with gcc 4.1.x), an
unresolved reference to align_vdso_addr() causes the build to fail.

[ hpa: vdso_addr() is never actually used on x86-32, as calculate_addr
  in map_vdso() is always false.  It ought to be possible to clean
  this up further, but this fixes the immediate problem. ]

9f88b906b4 x86-64, vdso: Fix vDSO build breakage due to empty .rela.dyn
Certain ld versions (observed with 2.20.0) put an empty .rela.dyn
section into shared object files, breaking the assumption on the number
of sections to be copied to the final output. Simply discard any empty
SHT_REL and SHT_RELA sections to address this.

6a89d71078 x86/vdso: Error out in vdso2c if DT_RELA is present
vdso2c was checking for various types of relocations to detect when
the vdso had undefined symbols or was otherwise dependent on
relocation at load time.  Undefined symbols in the vdso would fail if
accessed at runtime, and certain implementation errors (e.g. branch
profiling or incorrect symbol visibilities) could result in data
access through the GOT that requires relocations.  This could be
as simple as:

    extern char foo;
    return foo;

Without some kind of visibility control, the compiler would assume
that foo could be interposed at load time and would generate a
relocation.

x86-64 and x32 (as opposed to i386) use explicit-addent (RELA) instead
of implicit-addent (REL) relocations for data access, and vdso2c
forgot to detect those.

Whether these bad relocations would actually fail at runtime depends
on what the linker sticks in the unrelocated references.  Nonetheless,
these relocations have no business existing in the vDSO and should be
fixed rather than silently ignored.

This error could trigger on some configurations due to branch
profiling.  The previous patch fixed that.

46b57a7693 x86/vdso: Move DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING into the vdso makefile
DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING turns off branch profiling (i.e. a
redefinition of 'if').  Branch profiling depends on a bunch of
kernel-internal symbols and generates extra output sections, none of
which are useful or functional in the vDSO.

It's currently turned off for vclock_gettime.c, but vgetcpu.c also
triggers branch profiling, so just turn it off in the makefile.

This fixes the build on some configurations: the vdso could contain
undefined symbols, and the fake section table overflowed due to
ftrace's added sections.

dda1e95cee x86/vdso: Create .build-id links for unstripped vdso files
With this change, doing 'make vdso_install' and telling gdb:

set debug-file-directory /lib/modules/KVER/vdso

will enable vdso debugging with symbols.  This is useful for
testing, but kernel RPM builds will probably want to manually delete
these symlinks or otherwise do something sensible when they strip
the vdso/*.so files.

If ld does not support --build-id, then the symlinks will not be
created.

Note that kernel packagers that use vdso_install may need to adjust
their packaging scripts to accomdate this change.  For example,
Fedora's scripts create build-id symlinks themselves in a different
location, so the spec should probably be updated to remove the
symlinks created by make vdso_install.

0e3727a883 x86/vdso: Remove some redundant in-memory section headers
.data doesn't need to be separate from .rodata: they're both readonly.

.altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement aren't needed by anything
except vdso2c; strip them from the final image.

While we're at it, rather than aligning the actual executable text,
just shove some unused-at-runtime data in between real data and
text.

My vdso image is still above 4k, but I'm disinclined to try to
trim it harder for 3.16.  For future trimming, I suspect that these
sections could be moved to later in the file and dropped from
the in-memory image:

.gnu.version and .gnu.version_d   (this may lose versions in gdb)
.eh_frame                         (should be harmless)
.eh_frame_hdr                     (I'm not really sure)
.hash                             (AFAIK nothing needs this section header)

bfad381c0d x86/vdso: Improve the fake section headers
Fully stripping the vDSO has other unfortunate side effects:

 - binutils is unable to find ELF notes without a SHT_NOTE section.

 - Even elfutils has trouble: it can find ELF notes without a section
   table at all, but if a section table is present, it won't look for
   PT_NOTE.

 - gdb wants section names to match between stripped DSOs and their
   symbols; otherwise it will corrupt symbol addresses.

We're also breaking the rules: section 0 is supposed to be SHT_NULL.

Fix these problems by building a better fake section table.  While
we're at it, we might as well let buggy Go versions keep working well
by giving the SHT_DYNSYM entry the correct size.

This is a bit unfortunate: it adds quite a bit of size to the vdso
image.

If/when binutils improves and the improved versions become widespread,
it would be worth considering dropping most of this.

for the benefit of the debugger.  This was broken by checkin:

6f121e548f x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time C

The filenames are different now, so update the Makefile to cope.

This still installs the 64-bit vdso as vdso64.so.  We believe this
will be okay, as the only known user is a patched gdb which is known
to use build-ids, but if it turns out to be a problem we may have to
add a link.

e0bf7b86da x86/vdso: Hack to keep 64-bit Go programs working
The Go runtime has a buggy vDSO parser that currently segfaults.
This writes an empty SHT_DYNSYM entry that causes Go's runtime to
malfunction by thinking that the vDSO is empty rather than
malfunctioning by running off the end and segfaulting.

This affects x86-64 only as far as we know, so we do not need this for

a62c34bd2a x86, mm: Improve _install_special_mapping and fix x86 vdso naming
Using arch_vma_name to give special mappings a name is awkward.  x86
currently implements it by comparing the start address of the vma to
the expected address of the vdso.  This requires tracking the start
address of special mappings and is probably buggy if a special vma
is split or moved.

Improve _install_special_mapping to just name the vma directly.  Use
it to give the x86 vvar area a name, which should make CRIU's life
easier.

As a side effect, the vvar area will show up in core dumps.  This
could be considered weird and is fixable.

[hpa: I say we accept this as-is but be prepared to deal with knocking
 out the vvars from core dumps if this becomes a problem.]

6f121e548f x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time C
Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination
of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF
parsers in the kernel.  Replace all of that with plain C code that
runs at build time.

All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and
linked in to the kernel image.

This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO
images are stripped more heavily than they used to be.  Everything
outside the loadable segment is dropped.  In particular, this causes
the section table and section name strings to be missing.  This
should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these
tables anyway.  The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's
--strip-sections option.

The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings
to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment.  Currently,
it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after
the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or
hpet page.  This happens whenever the load segment is just under a
multiple of PAGE_SIZE.

The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with
inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script
that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'.  This most
likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol
associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real
dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall.  That caused ld to relocate the
reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic
relocation.  Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I
now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it
work.  vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the
resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't
silently generate bad vdso images.

(Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt
to relocate the vdso.)

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16804

With a workaround in place for that issue, Gold 2.23 crashes due to:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15355

This works around the former bug and avoids the second by removing
the unnecessary vvar and hpet sections and segments.  The vdso and
hpet symbols are still there, and nothing needed the sections or
segments.

c6f21243ce Merge branch 'x86-vdso-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 vdso changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups.

  This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have
  in the 64-bit vdso.  Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to
  remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come.

  This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration
  variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will
  produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty.
  Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was
  unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release.

  This is not the end of the vdso cleanups.  Stefani and Andy have
  agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has
  already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this
  cycle.

  An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures
  that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed.  It wasn't
  before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS
  or the bootloader.  Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space
  this had the potential of information leaks"

b67e612cef x86: Load the 32-bit vdso in place, just like the 64-bit vdsos
This replaces a decent amount of incomprehensible and buggy code
with much more straightforward code.  It also brings the 32-bit vdso
more in line with the 64-bit vdsos, so maybe someday they can share
even more code.

This wastes a small amount of kernel .data and .text space, but it
avoids a couple of allocations on startup, so it should be more or
less a wash memory-wise.

7c03156f34 x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 64 bit kernel
This patch add the VDSO time support for the IA32 Emulation Layer.

Due the nature of the kernel headers and the LP64 compiler where the
size of a long and a pointer differs against a 32 bit compiler, there
is some type hacking necessary for optimal performance.

The vsyscall_gtod_data struture must be a rearranged to serve 32- and
64-bit code access at the same time:

- The seqcount_t was replaced by an unsigned, this makes the
  vsyscall_gtod_data intedepend of kernel configuration and internal functions.
- All kernel internal structures are replaced by fix size elements
  which works for 32- and 64-bit access
- The inner struct clock was removed to pack the whole struct.

The "unsigned seq" would be handled by functions derivated from seqcount_t.

This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config

users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that

1ca7d67cf5 seqcount: Add lockdep functionality to seqcount/seqlock structures
Currently seqlocks and seqcounts don't support lockdep.

After running across a seqcount related deadlock in the timekeeping
code, I used a less-refined and more focused variant of this patch
to narrow down the cause of the issue.

This is a first-pass attempt to properly enable lockdep functionality
on seqlocks and seqcounts.

Since seqcounts are used in the vdso gettimeofday code, I've provided
non-lockdep accessors for those needs.

I've also handled one case where there were nested seqlock writers
and there may be more edge cases.

Comments and feedback would be appreciated!
