[PATCH v4 0/8] recordmcount cleanups

[PATCH v4 0/8] recordmcount cleanups

[Matt Helsley]

recordmcount presents unnecessary challenges to reviewers:

	It pretends to wrap access to the ELF file in
	uread/uwrite/ulseek functions which aren't related
	the way you might think (i.e. not the way read, write,
	and lseek are releated to each other).

	It uses setjmp/longjmp to handle errors (and success)
	during processing of the object files. This makes it
	hard to review what functions are doing, how globals
	change over time, etc.

	There are some kernel style nits.

This series addresses all of those by removing un-helper functions,
unused parameters, and rewriting the error/success handling to
better resemble regular kernel C code.

--

This series was formerly part of a v3 posted under the subject
"Cleanup recordmcount and begin objtool conversion". I am
reposting it split into two series: these cleanups of recordmcount
and a second series that begins the conversion of the cleaned-up
recordmcount into an objtool subcommand called mcount.

v4:
   Addressed feedback on v3 from Steven Rostedt:
       Moved already_has_mcount into recordmcount.c to avoid
                unnecessary multiple definitions.
       Changed return semantics of find_secsym_ndx() to avoid
                need for missing_sym (and multiple definitions)
                and to separate the returned symbol info
                (value, index) from success/failure indication.
       Fixed up local variable declaration to follow inverted
		christmas tree style.

[PATCH v4 1/8] recordmcount: Remove redundant strcmp

[Matt Helsley]

The strcmp is unnecessary since .text is already accepted as a
prefix in the strncmp().

[PATCH v4 2/8] recordmcount: Remove uread()

[Matt Helsley]

uread() is only used to initialize the ELF file's pseudo
private-memory mapping while uwrite() and ulseek() work within
the pseudo-mapping and extend it as necessary.  Thus it is not
a complementary function to uwrite() and ulseek(). It also makes
no sense to do cleanups inside uread() when its only caller,
mmap_file(), is doing the relevant allocations and associated
initializations.

Therefore it's clearer to use a plain read() call to initialize the
data in mmap_file() and remove uread().

[PATCH v4 3/8] recordmcount: Remove unused fd from uwrite() and ulseek()

[Matt Helsley]

uwrite() works within the pseudo-mapping and extends it as necessary
without needing the file descriptor (fd) parameter passed to it.
Similarly, ulseek() doesn't need its fd parameter. These parameters
were only added because the functions bear a conceptual resemblance
to write() and lseek(). Worse, they obscure the fact that at the time
uwrite() and ulseek() are called fd_map is not a valid file descriptor.

Remove the unused file descriptor parameters that make it look like
fd_map is still valid.

[PATCH v4 4/8] recordmcount: Rewrite error/success handling

[Matt Helsley]

Recordmcount uses setjmp/longjmp to manage control flow as
it reads and then writes the ELF file. This unusual control
flow is hard to follow and check in addition to being unlike
kernel coding style.

So we rewrite these paths to use regular return values to
indicate error/success. When an error or previously-completed object
file is found we return an error code following kernel
coding conventions -- negative error values and 0 for success when
we're not returning a pointer. We return NULL for those that fail
and return non-NULL pointers otherwise.

One oddity is already_has_rel_mcount -- there we use pointer comparison
rather than string comparison to differentiate between
previously-processed object files and returning the name of a text
section.

This is 3f1df12019f333442b12c3b5d110b8fc43eb0b36 in mainline now.

I have the following problem:

	$ make ARCH=arm arch/arm/crypto/
	  Using /home/uwe/gsrc/linux as source for kernel
	  GEN     Makefile
	  CALL    /home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
	  CALL    /home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
	  CC      arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o
	arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o: failed
	make[2]: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:281: arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o] Error 1
	make[2]: *** Deleting file 'arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o'
	make[1]: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/Makefile:1792: arch/arm/crypto/] Error 2
	make: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/Makefile:179: sub-make] Error 2

and bisection points to 3f1df12019f333442b12c3b5d110b8fc43eb0b36.

This doesn't affect all files, most compile just fine. After calling the
compiler by hand to get aes-cipher-glue.o back I have:

uwe@taurus:~/arietta/kbuild$ ./scripts/recordmcount "arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o"
arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o: failed

I didn't debug this further, if you have problems reproducing or need more
infos tell me. The defconfig I'm using is attached.

Best regards
Uwe

This is 3f1df12019f333442b12c3b5d110b8fc43eb0b36 in mainline now.

I have the following problem:

	$ make ARCH=arm arch/arm/crypto/
	  Using /home/uwe/gsrc/linux as source for kernel
	  GEN     Makefile
	  CALL    /home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
	  CALL    /home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
	  CC      arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o
	arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o: failed
	make[2]: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:281: arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o] Error 1
	make[2]: *** Deleting file 'arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o'
	make[1]: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/Makefile:1792: arch/arm/crypto/] Error 2
	make: *** [/home/uwe/gsrc/linux/Makefile:179: sub-make] Error 2

and bisection points to 3f1df12019f333442b12c3b5d110b8fc43eb0b36.

This doesn't affect all files, most compile just fine. After calling the
compiler by hand to get aes-cipher-glue.o back I have:

uwe@taurus:~/arietta/kbuild$ ./scripts/recordmcount "arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o"
arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.o: failed

I didn't debug this further, if you have problems reproducing or need more
infos tell me. The defconfig I'm using is attached.

Best regards
Uwe

[PATCH v4 5/8] recordmcount: Kernel style function signature formatting

[Matt Helsley]

The uwrite() and ulseek() functions are formatted inconsistently
with the rest of the file and the kernel overall. While we're
making other changes here let's fix this.

[PATCH v4 6/8] recordmcount: Kernel style formatting

[Matt Helsley]

Fix up the whitespace irregularity in the ELF switch
blocks.

Swapping the initial value of gpfx allows us to
simplify all but one of the one-line switch cases even
further.

[PATCH v4 7/8] recordmcount: Remove redundant cleanup() calls

[Matt Helsley]

Redundant cleanup calls were introduced when transitioning from
the old error/success handling via setjmp/longjmp -- the longjmp
ensured the cleanup() call only happened once but replacing
the success_file()/fail_file() calls with cleanup() meant that
multiple cleanup() calls can happen as we return from function
calls.

In do_file(), looking just before and after the "goto out" jumps we
can see that multiple cleanups() are being performed. We remove
cleanup() calls from the nested functions because it makes the code
easier to review -- the resources being cleaned up are generally
allocated and initialized in the callers so freeing them there
makes more sense.

Other redundant cleanup() calls:

mmap_file() is only called from do_file() and, if mmap_file() fails,
then we goto out and do cleanup() there too.

write_file() is only called from do_file() and do_file()
calls cleanup() unconditionally after returning from write_file()
therefore the cleanup() calls in write_file() are not necessary.

find_secsym_ndx(), called from do_func()'s for-loop, when we are
cleaning up here it's obvious that we break out of the loop and
do another cleanup().

__has_rel_mcount() is called from two parts of do_func()
and calls cleanup(). In theory we move them into do_func(), however
these in turn prove redundant so another simplification step
removes them as well.

[PATCH v4 8/8] recordmcount: Clarify what cleanup() does

[Matt Helsley]

cleanup() mostly frees/unmaps the malloc'd/privately-mapped
copy of the ELF file recordmcount is working on, which is
set up in mmap_file(). It also deals with positioning within
the pseduo prive-mapping of the file and appending to the ELF
file.

Split into two steps:
	mmap_cleanup() for the mapping itself
	file_append_cleanup() for allocations storing the
		appended ELF data.

Also, move the global variable initializations out of the main,
per-object-file loop and nearer to the alloc/init (mmap_file())
and two cleanup functions so we can more clearly see how they're
related.

I applied these patches to my queue.

I pushed them to my repo on branch ftrace/core

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace.git

But note, that this branch will rebase, probably on top of v5.3-rc3
when it comes out.
