There's a fun implementation detail on linking STB_WEAK symbols. When the linker combines two translation units, where one contains a weak function and the other an override for it. It simply strips the STB_WEAK symbol from the symbol table, but doesn't actually remove the code. The result is that when objtool is ran in a whole-archive kind of way, it will encounter *heaps* of unused (and unreferenced) code. All rudiments of weak functions. Additionally, when a weak implementation is split into a .cold subfunction that .cold symbol is left in place, even though completely unused. Teach objtool to ignore such rudiments by searching for symbol holes; that is, code ranges that fall outside the given symbol bounds. Specifically, ignore a sequence of unreachable instruction iff they occupy a single hole, additionally ignore any .cold subfunctions referenced. Both ld.bfd and ld.lld behave like this. LTO builds otoh can (and do) properly DCE weak functions.

The libelf implementation from elftoolchain has a safety check in gelf_update_rel[a] to check that the data corresponds to a section that has type SHT_REL[A] [0]. If the relocation is updated before the section header is updated with the proper type, this check fails. To fix this, update the section header first, before the relocations. Previously, the section size was calculated in elf_rebuild_reloc_section by counting the number of entries in the reloc_list. However, we now need the size during elf_write so instead keep a running total and add to it for every new relocation.

When an ELF object uses extended symbol section indexes (IOW it has a .symtab_shndx section), these must be kept in sync with the regular symbol table (.symtab). So for every new symbol we emit, make sure to also emit a .symtab_shndx value to keep the arrays of equal size. Note: since we're writing an UNDEF symbol, most GElf_Sym fields will be 0 and we can repurpose one (st_size) to host the 0 for the xshndx value.

Currently objtool has 5 hashtables and sizes them 16 or 20 bits depending on the --vmlinux argument. However, a single side doesn't really work well for the 5 tables, which among them, cover 3 different uses. Also, while vmlinux is larger, there is still a very wide difference between a defconfig and allyesconfig build, which again isn't optimally covered by a single size. Another aspect is the cost of elf_hash_init(), which for large tables dominates the runtime for small input files. It turns out that all it does it assign NULL, something that is required when using malloc(). However, when we allocate memory using mmap(), we're guaranteed to get zero filled pages. Therefore, rewrite the whole thing to: 1) use more dynamic sized tables, depending on the input file, 2) avoid the need for elf_hash_init() entirely by using mmap(). This speeds up a regular kernel build (100s to 98s for x86_64-defconfig), and potentially dramatically speeds up vmlinux processing.

Provide: partial-order; less() based: - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached total-order; cmp() based: - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first() - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two Inlining and constant propagation should see the compiler inline the whole thing, including the various compare functions.

Currently objtool headers are being included either by their base name or included via ../ from a parent directory. In case of a base name usage: #include "warn.h" #include "arch_elf.h" it does not make it apparent from which directory the file comes from. To make it slightly better, and actually to avoid name clashes some arch specific files have "arch_" suffix. And files from an arch folder have to revert to including via ../ e.g: #include "../../elf.h" With additional architectures support and the code base growth there is a need for clearer headers naming scheme for multiple reasons: 1. to make it instantly obvious where these files come from (objtool itself / objtool arch|generic folders / some other external files), 2. to avoid name clashes of objtool arch specific headers, potential obtool arch generic headers and the system header files (there is /usr/include/elf.h already), 3. to avoid ../ includes and improve code readability. 4. to give a warm fuzzy feeling to developers who are mostly kernel developers and are accustomed to linux kernel headers arranging scheme. Doesn't this make it instantly obvious where are these files come from? #include <objtool/warn.h> #include <arch/elf.h> And doesn't it look nicer to avoid ugly ../ includes? Which also guarantees this is elf.h from the objtool and not /usr/include/elf.h. #include <objtool/elf.h> This patch defines and implements new objtool headers arranging scheme. Which is: - all generic headers go to include/objtool (similar to include/linux) - all arch headers go to arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/arch (to get arch prefix). This is similar to linux arch specific "asm/*" headers but we are not abusing "asm" name and calling it what it is. This also helps to prevent name clashes (arch is not used in system headers or kernel exports). To bring objtool to this state the following things are done: 1. current top level tools/objtool/ headers are moved into include/objtool/ subdirectory, 2. arch specific headers, currently only arch/x86/include/ are moved into arch/x86/include/arch/ and were stripped of "arch_" suffix, 3. new -I$(srctree)/tools/objtool/include include path to make includes like <objtool/warn.h> possible, 4. rewriting file includes, 5. make git not to ignore include/objtool/ subdirectory.

Building with the Clang assembler shows the following warning: arch/x86/kernel/ftrace_64.o: warning: objtool: missing symbol for insn at offset 0x16 The Clang assembler strips section symbols. That ends up giving objtool's find_func_containing() much more test coverage than normal. Turns out, find_func_containing() doesn't work so well for overlapping symbols: 2: 000000000000000e 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 fgraph_trace 3: 000000000000000f 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 trace 4: 0000000000000000 165 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 __fentry__ 5: 000000000000000e 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 ftrace_stub The zero-length NOTYPE symbols are inside __fentry__(), confusing the rbtree search for any __fentry__() offset coming after a NOTYPE. Try to avoid this problem by not adding zero-length symbols to the rbtree. They're rare and aren't needed in the rbtree anyway. One caveat, this actually might not end up being the right fix. Non-empty overlapping symbols, if they exist, could have the same problem. But that would need bigger changes, let's see if we can get away with the easy fix for now.

Add the inline static call implementation for x86-64. The generated code is identical to the out-of-line case, except we move the trampoline into it's own section. Objtool uses the trampoline naming convention to detect all the call sites. It then annotates those call sites in the .static_call_sites section. During boot (and module init), the call sites are patched to call directly into the destination function. The temporary trampoline is then no longer used.

Also, keep "rela" in the struct because it encodes a specific type of relocation we currently expect.

In preparation to parallelize certain parts of objtool, map out which uses of various data structures are read-only vs. read-write. As a first step constify 'struct elf' pointer passing, most of the secondary uses of it in find_symbol_*() methods are read-only. Also, while at it, better group the 'struct elf' handling methods in elf.h.

Sometimes, WARN_FUNC() and other users of symbol_by_offset() will associate the first instruction of a symbol with the symbol preceding it. This is because symbol->offset + symbol->len is already outside of the symbol's range.

When doing kbuild tests to see if the objtool changes affected those I found that there was a measurable regression: pre post real 1m13.594 1m16.488s user 34m58.246s 35m23.947s sys 4m0.393s 4m27.312s Perf showed that for small files the increased hash-table sizes were a measurable difference. Since we already have -l "vmlinux" to distinguish between the modes, make it also use a smaller portion of the hash-tables. This flips it into a small win: real 1m14.143s user 34m49.292s sys 3m44.746s Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: NMiroslav Benes <mbenes@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: NAlexandre Chartre <alexandre.chartre@oracle.com> Acked-by: NJosh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200416115119.167588731@infradead.orgSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Perf shows there is significant time in find_rela_by_dest(); this is because we have to iterate the address space per byte, looking for relocation entries. Optimize this by reducing the address space granularity. This reduces objtool on vmlinux.o runtime from 4.8 to 4.4 seconds.

Perf showed that __hash_init() is a significant portion of read_sections(), so instead of doing a per section rela_hash, use an elf-wide rela_hash. Statistics show us there are about 1.1 million relas, so size it accordingly. This reduces the objtool on vmlinux.o runtime to a third, from 15 to 5 seconds.
