      elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf interpreter mappings · 9b2f72cc
      Chen Jingwen authored 
      In commit b212921b ("elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf
executable mappings") we still leave MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in place for
load_elf_interp.

Unfortunately, this will cause kernel to fail to start with:

    1 (init): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00003ffff7ffd000 requested but the memory is mapped already
    Failed to execute /init (error -17)

The reason is that the elf interpreter (ld.so) has overlapping segments.

  readelf -l ld-2.31.so
  Program Headers:
    Type           Offset             VirtAddr           PhysAddr
                   FileSiz            MemSiz              Flags  Align

                   0x00000000000021e8 0x0000000000002320  RW     0x10000

The reason for this problem is the same as described in commit
ad55eac7 ("elf: enforce MAP_FIXED on overlaying elf segments").

Not only executable binaries, elf interpreters (e.g. ld.so) can have
overlapping elf segments, so we better drop MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE and go
back to MAP_FIXED in load_elf_interp.

      objtool: print out the symbol type when complaining about it · 7fab1c12
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The objtool warning that the kvm instruction emulation code triggered
wasn't very useful:

    arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception

in that it helpfully tells you which symbol name it had trouble figuring
out the relocation for, but it doesn't actually say what the unknown
symbol type was that triggered it all.

In this case it was because of missing type information (type 0, aka
STT_NOTYPE), but on the whole it really should just have printed that
out as part of the message.

Because if this warning triggers, that's very much the first thing you
want to know - why did reloc2sec_off() return failure for that symbol?

So rather than just saying you can't handle some type of symbol without
saying what the type _was_, just print out the type number too.

      kvm: fix objtool relocation warning · 291073a5
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The recent change to make objtool aware of more symbol relocation types
(commit 24ff6525: "objtool: Teach get_alt_entry() about more
relocation types") also added another check, and resulted in this
objtool warning when building kvm on x86:

    arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception

The reason seems to be that kvm_fastop_exception() is marked as a global
symbol, which causes the relocation to ke kept around for objtool.  And
at the same time, the kvm_fastop_exception definition (which is done as
an inline asm statement) doesn't actually set the type of the global,
which then makes objtool unhappy.

The minimal fix is to just not mark kvm_fastop_exception as being a
global symbol.  It's only used in that one compilation unit anyway, so
it was always pointless.  That's how all the other local exception table
labels are done.

I'm not entirely happy about the kinds of games that the kvm code plays
with doing its own exception handling, and the fact that it confused
objtool is most definitely a symptom of the code being a bit too subtle
and ad-hoc.  But at least this trivial one-liner makes objtool no longer
upset about what is going on.
