parisc: Make RO_DATA page aligned in vmlinux.lds.S

2024-01-28T08:49:46+00:00

The rodata_test program for CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST=y complains if
read-only data does not start at page boundary.

objtool/idle: Validate __cpuidle code as noinstr

2023-01-13T10:48:15+00:00

Idle code is very like entry code in that RCU isn't available. As
such, add a little validation.

Revert "parisc: Fix backtrace to always include init funtion names"

2021-11-22T06:37:31+00:00

This reverts commit 279917e27edc293eb645a25428c6ab3f3bca3f86.

With the CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY option enabled, this patch triggers
kernel bugs at runtime:

  usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to kernel text (offset 2084839, size 6)!
  kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:99!
 Backtrace:
  IAOQ[0]: usercopy_abort+0xc4/0xe8
  [<00000000406ed1c8>] __check_object_size+0x174/0x238
  [<00000000407086d4>] copy_strings.isra.0+0x3e8/0x708

  [<0000000040303eb8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14

The problem is, that we have an init section of at least 2MB size which
starts at _stext and is freed after bootup.

If then later some kernel data is (temporarily) stored in this free
memory, check_kernel_text_object() will trigger a bug since the data
appears to be inside the kernel text (>=_stext) area:
        if (overlaps(ptr, len, _stext, _etext))
                usercopy_abort("kernel text");

parisc: Fix backtrace to always include init funtion names

2021-11-13T21:10:56+00:00

I noticed that sometimes at kernel startup the backtraces did not
included the function names of init functions. Their address were not
resolved to function names and instead only the address was printed.

Debugging shows that the culprit is is_ksym_addr() which is called
by the backtrace functions to check if an address belongs to a function in
the kernel. The problem occurs only for CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.

When looking at is_ksym_addr() one can see that for CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y
the function only tries to resolve the address via is_kernel() function,
which checks like this:
	if (addr >= _stext && addr <= _end)
                return 1;
On parisc the init functions are located before _stext, so this check fails.
Other platforms seem to have all functions (including init functions)
behind _stext.

The following patch moves the _stext symbol at the beginning of the
kernel and thus includes the init section. This fixes the check and does
not seem to have any negative side effects on where the kernel mapping
happens in the map_pages() function in arch/parisc/mm/init.c.

vmlinux.lds.h: Split ELF_DETAILS from STABS_DEBUG

2020-09-01T07:50:35+00:00

The .comment section doesn't belong in STABS_DEBUG. Split it out into a
new macro named ELF_DETAILS. This will gain other non-debug sections
that need to be accounted for when linking with --orphan-handling=warn.

vmlinux.lds.h: Replace RW_DATA_SECTION with RW_DATA

2019-11-04T14:57:41+00:00

Rename RW_DATA_SECTION to RW_DATA. (Calling this a "section" is a lie,
since it's multiple sections and section flags cannot be applied to
the macro.)
