Currently, if a section has a relocation to '_mcount' symbol, a new
__mcount_loc entry will be added whatever the relocation type is.
This is problematic when a relocation to '_mcount' is in the middle of a
section and is not a call for ftrace use.
Such relocation could be generated with below code for example:
bool is_mcount(unsigned long addr)
{
return (target == (unsigned long) &_mcount);
}
With this snippet of code, ftrace will try to patch the mcount location
generated by this code on module load and fail with:
Call trace:
ftrace_bug+0xa0/0x28c
ftrace_process_locs+0x2f4/0x430
ftrace_module_init+0x30/0x38
load_module+0x14f0/0x1e78
__do_sys_finit_module+0x100/0x11c
__arm64_sys_finit_module+0x28/0x34
el0_svc_common+0x88/0x194
el0_svc_handler+0x38/0x8c
el0_svc+0x8/0xc
---[ end trace d828d06b36ad9d59 ]---
ftrace failed to modify
[<ffffa2dbf3a3a41c>] 0xffffa2dbf3a3a41c
actual: 66:a9:3c:90
Initializing ftrace call sites
ftrace record flags: 2000000
(0)
expected tramp: ffffa2dc6cf66724
So Limit the relocation type to R_AARCH64_CALL26 as in perl version of
recordmcount.
Fixes: ed60453fa8f8 ("ARM: 6511/1: ftrace: add ARM support for C version of recordmcount")

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree. Please read:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.

I'd rather have this go through the arm64 tree, as they can test it
better than I can.

Thanks Steve.
Should I send a V2 to add 'Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org' in the commit
description or can someone take care of it when adding the commit to
the tree?

If I was taking it, I would simply add the Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
to the commit log, and no resend would be needed.
It's up to the ARM64 maintainers to decide in this case.

Thanks for catching this.
It should be as below instead:
Fixes: af64d2aa872a ("ftrace: Add arm64 support to recordmcount")
Should I send a V2?

Hi Gregory,
As a general thing, for patches affecting arm64 could you please Cc the
linx-arm-kernel mailing list (linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org).
Some folk working on arm/arm64 aren't subscribed to LKML, and it means
patches like this may get missed.

Which code specifically is this triggering for? Is this something in an
upstream kernel, or out-of-tree patches?
Can you say which toolchain you're using, too?

Given our patching code expects each callsite to be:
bl _mcount
... this looks sane to me, and I *think* that's sound for modules too.

That's a 32-bit arm commit. I suspect that was meant to be:
Fixes: af64d2aa872a1747 ("ftrace: Add arm64 support to recordmcount")

As above, I think this is sound, but if you could answer my questions
that'd be helpful.

We faced this issue while porting Ksplice on ARM64 architecture. So
that's an out-of-tree module. And we got this issue because we have
multiple references to '_mcount' like the one described in the commit
description of this patch.

We are using native gcc version: gcc (GCC) 7.3.0 20180125 (Red Hat 7.3.0-5)
And native binutils 2.31.1.
