[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH 3/3] objtool: Support stack layout changes in alternatives
The ORC unwinder showed a warning [1] which revealed the stack layout
didn't match what was expected. The problem was that paravirt patching
had replaced "CALL *pv_ops.irq.save_fl" with "PUSHF;POP". That changed
the stack layout between the PUSHF and the POP, so unwinding from an
interrupt which occurred between those two instructions would fail.
Part of the agreed upon solution was to rework the custom paravirt
patching code to use alternatives instead, since objtool already knows
how to read alternatives (and converging runtime patching infrastructure
is always a good thing anyway). But the main problem still remains,
which is that runtime patching can change the stack layout.
Making stack layout changes in alternatives was disallowed with commit
7117f16bf460 ("objtool: Fix ORC vs alternatives"), but now that paravirt
is going to be doing it, it needs to be supported.
One way to do so would be to modify the ORC table when the code gets
patched. But ORC is simple -- a good thing! -- and it's best to leave
it alone.
Instead, support stack layout changes by "flattening" all possible stack
states (CFI) from parallel alternative code streams into a single set of
linear states. The only necessary limitation is that CFI conflicts are
disallowed at all possible instruction boundaries.
For example, this scenario is allowed:
Alt1 Alt2 Alt3
0x00 CALL *pv_ops.save_fl CALL xen_save_fl PUSHF
0x01 POP %RAX
0x02 NOP
...
0x05 NOP
...
0x07 <insn>
The unwind information for offset-0x00 is identical for all 3
alternatives. Similarly offset-0x05 and higher also are identical (and
the same as 0x00). However offset-0x01 has deviating CFI, but that is
only relevant for Alt3, neither of the other alternative instruction
streams will ever hit that offset.
This scenario is NOT allowed:
Alt1 Alt2
0x00 CALL *pv_ops.save_fl PUSHF
0x01 NOP6
...
0x07 NOP POP %RAX
The problem here is that offset-0x7, which is an instruction boundary in
both possible instruction patch streams, has two conflicting stack
layouts.
[ The above examples were stolen from Peter Zijlstra. ]
The new flattened CFI array is used both for the detection of conflicts
(like the second example above) and the generation of linear ORC
entries.
BTW, another benefit of these changes is that, thanks to some related
cleanups (new fake nops and alt_group struct) objtool can finally be rid
of fake jumps, which were a constant source of headaches.

-10. file.o: warning: func()+0x5c: alternative modifies stack
-
- This means that an alternative includes instructions that modify the
- stack. The problem is that there is only one ORC unwind table, this means
- that the ORC unwind entries must be valid for each of the alternatives.
- The easiest way to enforce this is to ensure alternatives do not contain
- any ORC entries, which in turn implies the above constraint.

+ This means that in the use of the alternative() or ALTERNATIVE()
+ macro, the code paths have conflicting modifications to the stack.
+ The problem is that there is only one ORC unwind table, which means
