RISC-V NOMMU flat binaries cannot tolerate a gap between the text and
data section as the toolchain fully resolves at compile time the PC
relative global pointer (__global_pointer$ value loaded in gp register).
Without a relocation entry provided, the flat bin loader cannot fix the
value if a gap is introduced and executables fail to run.
This series fixes this problem by allowing an architecture to request
the flat loader to suppress the gap between the text and data sections.
The first patch fixes binfmt_flat flat_load_file() using the new
configuration option CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP. The second
patch enables this option for RISCV NOMMU builds.
These patches do not change the binfmt_flat loader behavior for other
architectures.
Changes from v1:
* Replace FLAT_TEXT_DATA_NO_GAP macro with
CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP config option (patch 1).
* Remove the addition of riscv/include/asm/flat.h and set
CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP for RISCV and !MMU

As a result, since MAX_SHARED_LIBS is never 0, a gap between the text and data sections always exists. For architectures which cannot support a such gap between the text and data sections (e.g. riscv nommu), flat binary programs cannot be executed. To allow an architecture to request contiguous text and data sections, introduce the config option CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP. Using this new option, the macro DATA_GAP_WORDS is conditionally defined in binfmt_flat.c to MAX_SHARED_LIBS for architectures tolerating the text-to-data gap (CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP disabled case) and to 0 when CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP is enabled. DATA_GAP_WORDS is used in load_flat_file() to calculate the data section length and start position. An architecture enabling CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_TEXT_DATA_GAP also prevents the use of the separate text/data load case (when the flat file header flags FLAT_FLAG_RAM and FLAT_FLAG_GZIP are not set with NOMMU kernels) and forces the use of a single RAM region for loading (equivalent to FLAT_FLAG_RAM being set).

FWIW, my involvement with binfmt_flat had been pretty much nil - the least trivial had been "binfmt_flat: flat_{get,put}_addr_from_rp() should be able to fail" about 4 years ago and that fell out of hunting for places where __get_user() had been used without checking error values. It's in fs/*, but I've no way to test it and I have pretty much zero familiarity with the guts of that one, so I can't give any useful feedback on that series. So consider the Christoph's comment seconded - you want it reviewed by gerg et.al., and it probably ought to go via gerg/uclinux.git tree. I'm reasonably familiar with binfmt_{elf,misc,script}; anything else gets touched as part of larger series and only with sanity checks from other folks, if the changes are not entirely trivial. _______________________________________________ linux-riscv mailing list linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread
