The toc field in the mod_arch_specific struct isn't actually used
anywhere, so remove it.
Also the ftrace-specific fields are now common between 32-bit and
64-bit, so simplify the struct definition a bit by moving them out of
the __powerpc64__ #ifdef.

With -mprofile-kernel, we always save the full register state in
ftrace_caller(). While this works, this is inefficient if we're not
interested in the register state, such as when we're using the function
tracer.
Rename the existing ftrace_caller() as ftrace_regs_caller() and provide
a simpler implementation for ftrace_caller() that is used when registers
are not required to be saved.

If you build the kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n, then install the

handles symbol CRCs differently from a non-relocatable kernel.
Although it's possible we could try and detect this situation and

We are moving towards separate kernel and module function descriptor
dereference callbacks. This patch enables it for powerpc64.
For pointers that belong to the kernel
- Added __start_opd and __end_opd pointers, to track the kernel
.opd section address range;
- Added dereference_kernel_function_descriptor(). Now we
will dereference only function pointers that are within
[__start_opd, __end_opd);
For pointers that belong to a module
- Added dereference_module_function_descriptor() to handle module
function descriptor dereference. Now we will dereference only
pointers that are within [module->opd.start, module->opd.end).

On powerpc we can build the kernel with two different ABIs for mcount(), which
is used by ftrace. Kernels built with one ABI do not know how to load modules
built with the other ABI. The new style ABI is called "mprofile-kernel", for
want of a better name.
Currently if we build a module using the old style ABI, and the kernel with
mprofile-kernel, when we load the module we'll oops something like:
# insmod autofs4-no-mprofile-kernel.ko

The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us
to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to
associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value.
This has a couple of downsides:
- Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes
for each CRC on 64 bit architectures,
- On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE
relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it
as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime
load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we
explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the
core module code)
- Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space
each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for
CRCs.
Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most
of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities
that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note
that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values
are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if
the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations
are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on
powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC
references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC
value is stored.
So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the
__CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using
inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use
32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately
resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid
potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy
toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained
for 32-bit architectures.
Note that this mostly reverts commit d4703aefdb ("module: handle ppc64
relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y")

Merge the ftrace changes to support -mprofile-kernel on ppc64le. This is
a prerequisite for live patching, the support for which will be merged
via the livepatch tree based on this topic branch.
When a module is loaded, calls out to the kernel go via a stub which is
generated at runtime. One of these stubs is used to call _mcount(),
which is the default target of tracing calls generated by the compiler
with -pg.
If dynamic ftrace is enabled (which it typically is), another stub is
used to call ftrace_caller(), which is the target of tracing calls when
ftrace is actually active.
ftrace then wants to disable the calls to _mcount() at module startup,
and enable/disable the calls to ftrace_caller() when enabling/disabling
tracing - all of these it does by patching the code.
As part of that code patching, the ftrace code wants to confirm that the
branch it is about to modify, is in fact a call to a module stub which
calls _mcount() or ftrace_caller().
Currently it does that by inspecting the instructions and confirming
they are what it expects. Although that works, the code to do it is
pretty intricate because it requires lots of knowledge about the exact
format of the stub.
We can make that process easier by marking the generated stubs with a
magic value, and then looking for that magic value. Altough this is not
as rigorous as the current method, I believe it is sufficient in
practice.

Currently we generate the module stub for ftrace_caller() at the bottom
of apply_relocate_add(). However apply_relocate_add() is potentially
called more than once per module, which means we will try to generate
the ftrace_caller() stub multiple times.
Although the current code deals with that correctly, ie. it only
generates a stub the first time, it would be clearer to only try to
generate the stub once.
Note also on first reading it may appear that we generate a different
stub for each section that requires relocation, but that is not the
case. The code in stub_for_addr() that searches for an existing stub
uses sechdrs[me->arch.stubs_section], ie. the single stub section for
this module.
A cleaner approach is to only generate the ftrace_caller() stub once,
from module_finalize(). Although the original code didn't check to see
if the stub was actually generated correctly, it seems prudent to add a
check, so do that. And an additional benefit is we can clean the ifdefs
up a little.
Finally we must propagate the const'ness of some of the pointers passed
to module_finalize(), but that is also an improvement.

Module CRCs are implemented as absolute symbols that get resolved by
a linker script. We build an intermediate .o that contains an
unresolved symbol for each CRC. genksysms parses this .o, calculates
the CRCs and writes a linker script that "resolves" the symbols to
the calculated CRC.
Unfortunately the ppc64 relocatable kernel sees these CRCs as symbols
that need relocating and relocates them at boot. Commit d4703aef
(module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)
added a hook to reverse the bogus relocations. Part of this patch
created a symbol at 0x0:
# head -2 /proc/kallsyms
0000000000000000 T reloc_start
c000000000000000 T .__start
This reloc_start symbol is causing lots of confusion to perf. It
thinks reloc_start is a massive function that stretches from 0x0 to
0xc000000000000000 and we get various cryptic errors out of perf,
including:
problem incrementing symbol count, skipping event
This patch removes the reloc_start linker script label and instead
defines it as PHYSICAL_START. We also need to wrap it with
CONFIG_PPC64 because the ppc32 kernel can set a non zero
PHYSICAL_START at compile time and we wouldn't want to subtract
it from the CRCs in that case.

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.
