The symbol jiffies is created in the linker script as an alias to jiffies_64. Unfortunately this is done outside any section, and apparently GNU ld 2.21 doesn't carry the section with it, so we end up with an absolute symbol and therefore a broken kernel. Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the whitelist. The most disturbing bit with this discovery is that it shows that we have had multiple linker bugs in this area crossing multiple generations, and have been silently building bad kernels for some time.

As noted in checkin: a3e854d9 x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug ld version 2.22.52.0.[12] can incorrectly promote relative symbols to absolute, if the output section they appear in is otherwise empty. Since checkin: 6520fe55 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool we actually check for this and error out rather than silently creating a kernel which will malfunction if relocated. Ingo found a configuration in which __start_builtin_fw triggered the warning. Go through the linker script sources and look for more symbols that could plausibly get bogusly promoted to absolute, and add them to the whitelist. In general, if the following error triggers: Invalid absolute R_386_32 relocation: <symbol> ... then we should verify that <symbol> is really meant to be relocated, and add it and any related symbols manually to the S_REL regexp. Please note that 6520fe55 does not introduce the error, only the check for the error -- without 6520fe55 this version of ld will simply produce a corrupt kernel if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set on x86-32.

When the relocs tool throws an error, let the error message say if it is an absolute or relative symbol.

GNU ld 2.22.52.0.1 has a bug that it blindly changes symbols from section-relative to absolute if they are in a section of zero length. This turns the symbols __init_begin and __init_end into absolute symbols. Let the relocs program know that those should be treated as relative symbols.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.

Linux does not define __BYTE_ORDER in its endian header files which makes some header files bend backwards to get at the current endian. Lets #define __BYTE_ORDER in big_endian.h/litte_endian.h to make it easier for header files that are used in user space too. In userspace the convention is that 1. _both_ __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined, 2. you have to test for e.g. __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

This adds a new category of symbols to the relocs program: symbols which are known to be relative, even though the linker emits them as absolute; this is the case for symbols that live in the linker script, which currently applies to _end. Unfortunately the previous workaround of putting _end in its own empty section was defeated by newer binutils, which remove empty sections completely. This patch also changes the symbol matching to use regular expressions instead of hardcoded C for specific patterns. This is a decidedly non-minimal patch: a modified version of the relocs program is used as part of the Syslinux build, and this is basically a backport to Linux of some of those changes; they have thus been well tested.

For relocatable 32bit kernels, boot/compressed/relocs.c processes relocation entries in the kernel image and appends it to the kernel image such that boot/compressed/head_32.S can relocate the kernel. The kernel image is one statically linked object and only uses two relocation types - R_386_PC32 and R_386_32, of the two only the latter needs massaging during kernel relocation and thus handled by relocs. R_386_PC32 is ignored and all other relocation types are considered error. When the target of a relocation resides in a discarded section, binutils doesn't throw away the relocation record but nullifies it by changing it to R_386_NONE, which unfortunately makes relocs fail. The problem was triggered by yet out-of-tree x86 stack unwind patches but given the binutils behavior, ignoring R_386_NONE is the right thing to do. The problem has been tracked down to binutils behavior by Jan Beulich.

One of the nice ideas behind paravirt is that CONFIG_XEN=y can be included in a standard configuration and be no worse for native booting than as a Xen guest. The glibc feature that supports the vDSO "nosegneg" note is designed specifically to make this easy. You just have to flip one bit at boot time. This patch makes Xen flip the bit, so a CONFIG_XEN=y kernel on bare hardware does not make glibc use the less-optimized library builds.

arch/i386/xen/xen-asm.S defines some small pieces of code which are used to implement a few paravirt_ops. They're designed so they can be used either in-place, or be inline patched into their callsites if there's enough space. Some of those operations need to make calls out (specifically, if you re-enable events [interrupts], and there's a pending event at that time). These calls need the call instruction to be relocated if the code is patched inline. In this case xen_foo_reloc is a section-relative symbol which points to xen_foo's required relocation. Other operations have no need of a relocation, and so their corresponding xen_bar_reloc is absolute 0. These are the cases which are triggering the warning. This patch adds those symbols to the list of safe abs symbols. Signed-off-by: NJeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Cc: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

i386 boot/compressed/relocs checks for absolute symbols and warns about unexpected ones. If you build with modversions, you get ~2500 warnings about __crc_<symbol>. These suckers are really absolute symbols - we do _not_ want to modify them on relocation. They are generated by genksyms - EXPORT_... generates a weak alias, then genksyms produces an ld script with __crc_<symbol> = <checksum> and it's fed to ld to produce the final object file. Their only use is to match kernel and module at modprobe time; they _must_ be absolute. boot/compressed/relocs has a whitelist of known absolute symbols, but it doesn't know about __crc_... stuff. As the result, we get shitloads of false positives on any ld(1) version. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This patch modifies the i386 kernel so that if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is selected it will be able to be loaded at any 4K aligned address below 1G. The technique used is to compile the decompressor with -fPIC and modify it so the decompressor is fully relocatable. For the main kernel relocations are generated. Resulting in a kernel that is relocatable with no runtime overhead and no need to modify the source code. A reserved 32bit word in the parameters has been assigned to serve as a stack so we figure out where are running. Signed-off-by: NEric W.
