      ARM: module: Fix function kallsyms on Thumb-2 · 93d77e7f
      Vincent Whitchurch authored 
      Thumb-2 functions have the lowest bit set in the symbol value in the
symtab.  When kallsyms are generated for the vmlinux, the kallsyms are
generated from the output of nm, and nm clears the lowest bit.

 $ arm-linux-gnueabihf-readelf -a vmlinux | grep show_interrupts
  95947: 8015dc89   686 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT    2 show_interrupts
 $ arm-linux-gnueabihf-nm vmlinux | grep show_interrupts
 8015dc88 T show_interrupts
 $ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep show_interrupts
 8015dc88 T show_interrupts

However, for modules, the kallsyms uses the values in the symbol table
without modification, so for functions in modules, the lowest bit is set
in kallsyms.

 $ arm-linux-gnueabihf-readelf -a drivers/net/tun.ko | grep tun_get_socket
    333: 00002d4d    36 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT    1 tun_get_socket
 $ arm-linux-gnueabihf-nm drivers/net/tun.ko | grep tun_get_socket
 00002d4c T tun_get_socket
 $ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep tun_get_socket
 7f802d4d t tun_get_socket      [tun]

Because of this, the symbol+offset of the crashing instruction shown in
oopses is incorrect when the crash is in a module.  For example, given a
tun_get_socket which starts like this,

 00002d4c <tun_get_socket>:
     2d4c:       6943            ldr     r3, [r0, #20]
     2d4e:       4a07            ldr     r2, [pc, #28]
     2d50:       4293            cmp     r3, r2

a crash when tun_get_socket is called with NULL results in:

 PC is at tun_xdp+0xa3/0xa4 [tun]
 pc : [<7f802d4c>]

As can be seen, the "PC is at" line reports the wrong symbol name, and
the symbol+offset will point to the wrong source line if it is passed to
gdb.

To solve this, add a way for archs to fixup the reading of these module
kallsyms values, and use that to clear the lowest bit for function
symbols on Thumb-2.

After the fix:

 # cat /proc/kallsyms | grep tun_get_socket
 7f802d4c t tun_get_socket       [tun]

 PC is at tun_get_socket+0x0/0x24 [tun]
 pc : [<7f802d4c>]

      module: Overwrite st_size instead of st_info · 5439c985
      Vincent Whitchurch authored 
      st_info is currently overwritten after relocation and used to store the
elf_type().  However, we're going to need it fix kallsyms on ARM's
Thumb-2 kernels, so preserve st_info and overwrite the st_size field
instead.  st_size is neither used by the module core nor by any
architecture.

      module: make it clearer when we're handling kallsyms symbols vs exported symbols · 2d25bc55
      Jessica Yu authored 
      The module loader internally works with both exported symbols
represented as struct kernel_symbol, as well as Elf symbols from a
module's symbol table. It's hard to distinguish sometimes which type of
symbol we're handling given that some helper function names are not
consistent or helpful. Take get_ksymbol() for instance - are we
looking for an exported symbol or a kallsyms symbol here? Or symname()
and kernel_symbol_name() - which function handles an exported symbol and
which one an Elf symbol?

Clean up and unify the function naming scheme a bit to make it clear
which kind of symbol we're handling. This change only affects static
functions internal to the module loader.
