Currently, modpost reads extra symbol dump files in the reverse order. If '-e foo -e bar' is given, modpost reads bar, foo, in this order. This is probably not a big deal, but there is no good reason to reverse the order. Read files in the given order. Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

This may not be a practical problem, but the second pass of ARCH=i386 modpost causes segmentation fault if the -s option is not passed. MODPOST 12 modules Segmentation fault (core dumped) make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:94: __modpost] Error 139 make[1]: *** [Makefile:1339: modules] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... The segmentation fault occurs when section_rel() is called for vmlinux, which is untested in regular builds. The cause of the problem is reloc_location() returning a wrong pointer for ET_EXEC object type. In this case, you need to subtract sechdr->sh_addr, otherwise it would get access beyond the mmap'ed memory. Add sym_get_data_by_offset() helper to avoid code duplication.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues. This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

In the process of creating the source file of a module modpost injects a set of includes that are not required if the compilation unit is statically built into the kernel. The order of inclusion of the headers can cause redefinition problems (e.g.): In file included from include/linux/elf.h:5:0, from include/linux/module.h:18, from crypto/arc4.mod.c:2: #define ELF_OSABI ELFOSABI_LINUX In file included from include/linux/elfnote.h:62:0, from include/linux/build-salt.h:4, from crypto/arc4.mod.c:1: include/uapi/linux/elf.h:363:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition #define ELF_OSABI ELFOSABI_NONE The issue was exposed during the development of the series [1].

In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc, symbol, module). In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbced), which is over a decade ago now. Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next delimiter or end of line will follow.

Now that there is no overwrap between symbols from ELF files and ones from Module.symvers. So, the 'exported twice' warning should be reported irrespective of where the symbol in question came from. The exceptional case is external module; in some cases, we build an external module to provide a different version/variant of the corresponding in-kernel module, overriding the same set of exported symbols. You can see this use-case in upstream; tools/testing/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko replaces drivers/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko in order to link it against mocked version of core kernel symbols. So, let's relax the 'exported twice' warning when building external modules. The multiple export from external modules is warned only when the previous one is from vmlinux or itself. With this refactoring, the ugly preloading goes away. Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

It is complicated to add mocked-up symbols for pre-handling CRC. Handle CRC after all the export symbols in the relevant module are registered. Call handle_modversion() after the handle_symbol() iteration. In some cases, I see atand-alone __crc_* without __ksymtab_*. For example, ARCH=arm allyesconfig produces __crc_ccitt_veneer and __crc_itu_t_veneer. I guess they come from crc_ccitt, crc_itu_t, respectively. Since __*_veneer are auto-generated symbols, just ignore them. Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

Currently, namespace_from_kstrtabns() relies on the fact that namespace strings are recorded in the __ksymtab_strings section. Actually, it is coded in include/linux/export.h, but modpost does not need to hard-code the section name. Elf_Sym::st_shndx holds the index of the relevant section. Using it is a more portable way to get the namespace string. Make namespace_from_kstrtabns() simply call sym_get_data(), and delete the info->ksymtab_strings .

The modpost, with the -d option given, generates per-module .ns_deps files. Kbuild generates per-module .mod files to carry module information. This is convenient because Make handles multiple jobs in parallel when the -j option is given. On the other hand, the modpost always runs as a single thread. I do not see a strong reason to produce separate .ns_deps files. This commit changes the modpost to generate just one file, modules.nsdeps, each line of which has the following format: <module_name>: <list of missing namespaces> Please note it contains *missing* namespaces instead of required ones. So, modules.nsdeps is empty if the namespace dependency is all good. This will work more efficiently because spatch will no longer process already imported namespaces. I removed the '(if needed)' from the nsdeps log since spatch is invoked only when needed.

Since commit 040fcc81 ("kbuild: improved modversioning support for external modules"), the external module build reads Module.symvers in the directory of the module itself, then dumps symbols back into it. It accumulates stale symbols in the file when you build an external module incrementally. The idea behind it was, as the commit log explained, you can copy Modules.symvers from one module to another when you need to pass symbol information between two modules. However, the manual copy of the file sounds questionable to me, and containing stale symbols is a downside. Some time later, commit 0d96fb20 ("kbuild: Add new Kbuild variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS") introduced a saner approach. So, this commit removes the former one. Going forward, the external module build dumps symbols into Module.symvers to be carried via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, but never reads it automatically. With the -I option removed, there is no one to set the external_module flag unless KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS is passed. Now the -i option does it instead.

The introduction of Symbol Namespaces changed the naming schema of the __ksymtab entries from __kysmtab__symbol to __ksymtab_NAMESPACE.symbol. That caused some breakages in tools that depend on the name layout in either the binaries(vmlinux,*.ko) or in System.map. E.g. kmod's depmod would not be able to read System.map without a patch to support symbol namespaces. A warning reported by depmod for namespaced symbols would look like depmod: WARNING: [...]/uas.ko needs unknown symbol usb_stor_adjust_quirks In order to address this issue, revert to the original naming scheme and rather read the __kstrtabns_<symbol> entries and their corresponding values from __ksymtab_strings to update the namespace values for symbols. After having read all symbols and handled them in handle_modversions(), the symbols are created. In a second pass, read the __kstrtabns_ entries and update the namespaces accordingly.

Let the function 'sym_update_namespace' take care of updating the namespace for a symbol. While this currently only replaces one single location where namespaces are updated, in a following patch, this function will get more call sites. The function signature is intentionally close to sym_update_crc and taking the name by char* seems like unnecessary work as the symbol has to be looked up again. In a later patch of this series, this concern will be addressed. This function ensures that symbol::namespace is either NULL or has a valid non-empty value. Previously, the empty string was considered 'no namespace' as well and this lead to confusion.

Currently, external module builds produce tons of false-positives: WARNING: module <mod> uses symbol <sym> from namespace <ns>, but does not import it. Here, the <ns> part shows a random string. When you build external modules, the symbol info of vmlinux and in-kernel modules are read from $(objtree)/Module.symvers, but read_dump() is buggy in multiple ways: [1] When the modpost is run for vmlinux and in-kernel modules, sym_extract_namespace() allocates memory for the namespace. On the other hand, read_dump() does not, then sym->namespace will point to somewhere in the line buffer of get_next_line(). The data in the buffer will be replaced soon, and sym->namespace will end up with pointing to unrelated data. As a result, check_exports() will show random strings in the warning messages. [2] When there is no namespace, sym_extract_namespace() returns NULL. On the other hand, read_dump() sets namespace to an empty string "". (but, it will be later replaced with unrelated data due to bug [1].) The check_exports() shows a warning unless exp->namespace is NULL, so every symbol read from read_dump() emits the warning, which is mostly false positive. To address [1], sym_add_exported() calls strdup() for s->namespace. The namespace from sym_extract_namespace() must be freed to avoid memory leak. For [2], I changed the if-conditional in check_exports(). This commit also fixes sym_add_exported() to set s->namespace correctly when the symbol is preloaded.

Currently, EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(_GPL) constructs the kernel symbol as follows: __ksymtab_SYMBOL.NAMESPACE The sym_extract_namespace() in modpost allocates memory for the part SYMBOL.NAMESPACE when '.' is contained. One problem is that the pointer returned by strdup() is lost because the symbol name will be copied to malloc'ed memory by alloc_symbol(). No one will keep track of the pointer of strdup'ed memory. sym->namespace still points to the NAMESPACE part. So, you can free it with complicated code like this: free(sym->namespace - strlen(sym->name) - 1); It complicates memory free. To fix it elegantly, I swapped the order of the symbol and the namespace as follows: __ksymtab_NAMESPACE.SYMBOL then, simplified sym_extract_namespace() so that it allocates memory only for the NAMESPACE part. I prefer this order because it is intuitive and also matches to major languages. For example, NAMESPACE::NAME in C++, MODULE.NAME in Python.

This patch adds an option to modpost to generate a <module>.ns_deps file per module, containing the namespace dependencies for that module. E.g. if the linked module my-module.ko would depend on the symbol myfunc.MY_NS in the namespace MY_NS, the my-module.ns_deps file created by modpost would contain the entry MY_NS to express the namespace dependency of my-module imposed by using the symbol myfunc. These files can subsequently be used by static analysis tools (like coccinelle scripts) to address issues with missing namespace imports. A later patch of this series will introduce such a script 'nsdeps' and a corresponding make target to automatically add missing MODULE_IMPORT_NS() definitions to the module's sources. For that it uses the information provided in the generated .ns_deps files.

This patch adds a check to warn about static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions during the modpost. In most of the cases, a static symbol marked for exporting is an odd combination that should be fixed either by deleting the exporting mark or by removing the static attribute and adding the appropriate declaration to headers. This check could help to detect the following problems: 1. 550113d4 ("i2c: add newly exported functions to the header, too") 2. 54638c6e ("net: phy: make exported variables non-static") 3. 98ef2046 ("mm: remove the exporting of totalram_pages") 4. 73df167c ("s390/zcrypt: remove the exporting of ap_query_configuration") 5. a57caf8c ("sunrpc/cache: remove the exporting of cache_seq_next") 6. e4e47306 ("crypto: skcipher - remove the exporting of skcipher_walk_next") 7. 14b4c48b ("gve: Remove the exporting of gve_probe") 8. 9b79ee97 ("scsi: libsas: remove the exporting of sas_wait_eh") 9. ... The build time impact is very limited and is almost at the unnoticeable level (< 1 sec).

Fix commit 56067812 ("kbuild: modversions: add infrastructure for emitting relative CRCs") where CRCs are interpreted in host byte order rather than proper kernel byte order. The bug is conditional on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. For example, when loading a BE module into a BE kernel compiled with a LE system, the error "disagrees about version of symbol module_layout" is produced. A message such as "Found checksum D7FA6856 vs module 5668FAD7" will be given with debug enabled, which indicates an obvious endian problem within __kcrctab within the kernel image. The general solution is to use the macro TO_NATIVE, as is done in similar cases throughout modpost.c. With this correction it has been verified that a BE kernel compiled with a LE system accepts BE modules. This change has also been verified with a LE kernel compiled with a LE system, in which case TO_NATIVE returns its value unmodified since the byte orders match. This is by far the common case.

Unless CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, modpost only shows the number of section mismatches. If you want to know the symbols causing the issue, you need to rebuild with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH. It is tedious. I think it is fine to show annoying warning when a new section mismatch comes in. Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

You do not need to iterate over all modules for resetting ->seen flag because add_depends() is only interested in modules that export symbols referenced from the given 'mod'. This also avoids shadowing the 'modules' parameter of add_depends(). Signed-off-by: NMasahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

During development of a serial console driver with a gcc 8.2.0 toolchain for RISC-V, the following modpost warning appeared: ---- WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x19b10): Section mismatch in reference from the variable .LANCHOR1 to the function .init.text:sifive_serial_console_setup() The variable .LANCHOR1 references the function __init sifive_serial_console_setup() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console ---- ".LANCHOR1" is an ELF local symbol, automatically created by gcc's section anchor generation code: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Anchored-Addresses.html https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/varasm.c;h=cd9591a45617464946dcf9a126dde277d9de9804;hb=9fb89fa845c1b2e0a18d85ada0b077c84508ab78#l7473 This was verified by compiling the kernel with -fno-section-anchors and observing that the ".LANCHOR1" ELF local symbol disappeared, and modpost no longer warned about the section mismatch. The serial driver code idiom triggering the warning is standard Linux serial driver practice that has a specific whitelist inclusion in modpost.c. I'm neither a modpost nor an ELF expert, but naively, it doesn't seem useful for modpost to report section mismatch warnings caused by ELF local symbols by default. Local symbols have compiler-generated names, and thus bypass modpost's whitelisting algorithm, which relies on the presence of a non-autogenerated symbol name. This increases the likelihood that false positive warnings will be generated (as in the above case). Thus, disable section mismatch reporting on ELF local symbols. The rationale here is similar to that of commit 2e3a10a1 ("ARM: avoid ARM binutils leaking ELF local symbols") and of similar code already present in modpost.c: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/scripts/mod/modpost.c?h=v4.19-rc4&id=7876320f88802b22d4e2daf7eb027dd14175a0f8#n1256 This third version of the patch implements a suggestion from Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> to restructure the code as an additional pattern matching step inside secref_whitelist(), and further improves the patch description.
