[PATCH v3 12/15] objtool: Alternatives vs ORC, the hard way
From: Juergen Gross
Date: Thu Dec 17 2020 - 04:33:53 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Alternatives pose an interesting problem for unwinders because from
the unwinders PoV we're just executing instructions, it has no idea
the text is modified, nor any way of retrieving what with.
Therefore the stance has been that alternatives must not change stack
state, as encoded by commit: 7117f16bf460 ("objtool: Fix ORC vs
alternatives"). This obviously guarantees that whatever actual
instructions end up in the text, the unwind information is correct.
However, there is one additional source of text patching that isn't
currently visible to objtool: paravirt immediate patching. And it
turns out one of these violates the rule.
As part of cleaning that up, the unfortunate reality is that objtool
now has to deal with alternatives modifying unwind state and validate
the combination is valid and generate ORC data to match.
The problem is that a single instance of unwind information (ORC) must
capture and correctly unwind all alternatives. Since the trivially
correct mandate is out, implement the straight forward brute-force
approach:
1) generate CFI information for each alternative
2) unwind every alternative with the merge-sort of the previously
generated CFI information -- O(n^2)
3) for any possible conflict: yell.
4) Generate ORC with merge-sort
Specifically for 3 there are two possible classes of conflicts:
- the merge-sort itself could find conflicting CFI for the same
offset.
- the unwind can fail with the merged CFI.
In specific, this allows us to deal with:
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.

V3:
- new patch; there is still an ongoing discussion whether this patch
couldn't be made simpler, but I'm including it here nevertheless, as
there is some solution required in objtool for the following patches
of the series.
