From 80e5302e4bc85a6b685b7668c36c6487b5f90e9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Naveen N. Rao" Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2019 00:08:01 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] recordmcount: Fix spurious mcount entries on powerpc An impending change to enable HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT on powerpc leads to warnings such as the following: # modprobe kprobe_example ftrace-powerpc: Not expected bl: opcode is 3c4c0001 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 227 at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:2001 ftrace_bug+0x90/0x318 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 227 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 5.2.0-rc6-00678-g1c329100b942 #2 NIP: c000000000264318 LR: c00000000025d694 CTR: c000000000f5cd30 REGS: c000000001f2b7b0 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted (5.2.0-rc6-00678-g1c329100b942) MSR: 900000010282b033 CR: 28228222 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c0000000002642fc IRQMASK: 0 NIP [c000000000264318] ftrace_bug+0x90/0x318 LR [c00000000025d694] ftrace_process_locs+0x4f4/0x5e0 Call Trace: [c000000001f2ba40] [0000000000000004] 0x4 (unreliable) [c000000001f2bad0] [c00000000025d694] ftrace_process_locs+0x4f4/0x5e0 [c000000001f2bb90] [c00000000020ff10] load_module+0x25b0/0x30c0 [c000000001f2bd00] [c000000000210cb0] sys_finit_module+0xc0/0x130 [c000000001f2be20] [c00000000000bda4] system_call+0x5c/0x70 Instruction dump: 419e0018 2f83ffff 419e00bc 2f83ffea 409e00cc 4800001c 0fe00000 3c62ff96 39000001 39400000 386386d0 480000c4 <0fe00000> 3ce20003 39000001 3c62ff96 ---[ end trace 4c438d5cebf78381 ]--- ftrace failed to modify [] 0xc0080000012a0008 actual: 01:00:4c:3c Initializing ftrace call sites ftrace record flags: 2000000 (0) expected tramp: c00000000006af4c Looking at the relocation records in __mcount_loc shows a few spurious entries: RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [__mcount_loc]: OFFSET TYPE VALUE 0000000000000000 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .text.unlikely+0x0000000000000008 0000000000000008 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .text.unlikely+0x0000000000000014 0000000000000010 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .text.unlikely+0x0000000000000060 0000000000000018 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .text.unlikely+0x00000000000000b4 0000000000000020 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .init.text+0x0000000000000008 0000000000000028 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .init.text+0x0000000000000014 The first entry in each section is incorrect. Looking at the relocation records, the spurious entries correspond to the R_PPC64_ENTRY records: RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text.unlikely]: OFFSET TYPE VALUE 0000000000000000 R_PPC64_REL64 .TOC.-0x0000000000000008 0000000000000008 R_PPC64_ENTRY *ABS* 0000000000000014 R_PPC64_REL24 _mcount The problem is that we are not validating the return value from get_mcountsym() in sift_rel_mcount(). With this entry, mcountsym is 0, but Elf_r_sym(relp) also ends up being 0. Fix this by ensuring mcountsym is valid before processing the entry. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
