This mostly a rebase update of the livepatch klp-convert tool used to
generate klp-relocation types (explained in the summary below).

I'm marking this as an RFC as it hasn't been extensively tested for all
livepatch supported arches.  There are may be a few symbol annotation
changes pending what may be implemented for the FGKASLR patchset, I've
left a few TODO and // question? marks in the code, etc.  At the same
time, I think "CET/IBT support and live-patches" highlighted a potential
need for this tooling, so I'm posting it in its current format for
discussion.  I'll reply to individual patches to highlight a few points
of interest.


Summary
-------

Livepatches may use symbols which are not contained in its own scope,
and, because of that, may end up compiled with relocations that will
only be resolved during module load. Yet, when the referenced symbols
are not exported, solving this relocation requires information on the
object that holds the symbol (either vmlinux or modules) and its
position inside the object, as an object may contain multiple symbols
with the same name.  Providing such information must be done accordingly
to what is specified in Documentation/livepatch/module-elf-format.txt.

Currently, there is no trivial way to embed the required information as
requested in the final livepatch elf object. klp-convert solves this
problem in two different forms: (i) by relying on a symbol map, which is
built during kernel compilation, to automatically infer the relocation
targeted symbol, and, when such inference is not possible (ii) by using
annotations in the elf object to convert the relocation accordingly to
the specification, enabling it to be handled by the livepatch loader.

Given the above, add support for symbol mapping in the form of a
symbols.klp file; add klp-convert tool; integrate klp-convert tool into
kbuild; make livepatch modules discernible during kernel compilation
pipeline; add data-structure and macros to enable users to annotate
livepatch source code; make modpost stage compatible with livepatches;
update livepatch-sample and update documentation.

The patch was tested under three use-cases:

use-case 1: There is a relocation in the lp that can be automatically
resolved by klp-convert.  For example. see the saved_command_line
variable in lib/livepatch/test_klp_convert2.c.

use-case 2: There is a relocation in the lp that cannot be automatically
resolved, as the name of the respective symbol appears in multiple
objects. The livepatch contains an annotation to enable a correct
relocation.  See the KLP_MODULE_RELOC / KLP_SYMPOS annotation sections
in lib/livepatch/test_klp_convert{1,2}.c.

use-case 3: There is a relocation in the lp that cannot be automatically
resolved similarly as 2, but no annotation was provided in the
livepatch, triggering an error during compilation.  Reproducible by
removing the KLP_MODULE_RELOC / KLP_SYMPOS annotation sections in
lib/livepatch/test_klp_convert{1,2}.c.

Selftests have been added to exercise these klp-convert use-cases
through several tests.

  To: live-patching, linux-kernel, linux-kbuild

From: Joao Moreira <jmoreira@suse.de>

For automatic resolution of livepatch relocations, a file called
symbols.klp is used. This file maps symbols within every compiled kernel
object allowing the identification of symbols whose name is unique, thus
relocation can be automatically inferred, or providing information that
helps developers when code annotation is required for solving the
matter.

Add support for creating symbols.klp in the main Makefile. First, ensure
that built-in is compiled when CONFIG_LIVEPATCH is enabled (as required
to achieve a complete symbols.klp file). Define the command to build
symbols.klp (cmd_klp_map) and hook it in the modules rule.

As it is undesirable to have symbols from livepatch objects inside
symbols.klp, make livepatches discernible by modifying
scripts/Makefile.build to create a .livepatch file for each livepatch in
$(MODVERDIR). This file then used by cmd_klp_map to identify and bypass
livepatches.

For identifying livepatches during the build process, a flag variable
LIVEPATCH_$(basetarget).o is considered in scripts/Makefile.build. This
way, set this flag for the livepatch sample Makefile in
samples/livepatch/Makefile.

Finally, Add a clean rule to ensure that symbols.klp is removed during
clean.

Notes:

To achieve a correct symbols.klp file, all kernel objects must be
considered, thus, its construction require these objects to be priorly
built. On the other hand, invoking scripts/Makefile.modpost without
having a complete symbols.klp in place would occasionally lead to
in-tree livepatches being post-processed incorrectly. To prevent this
from becoming a circular dependency, the construction of symbols.klp
uses non-post-processed kernel objects and such does not cause harm as
the symbols normally referenced from within livepatches are visible at
this stage. Also due to these requirements, the spot in-between modules
compilation and the invocation of scripts/Makefile.modpost was picked
for hooking cmd_klp_map.

The approach based on .livepatch files was proposed as an alternative to
using MODULE_INFO statements. This approach was originally proposed by
Miroslav Benes as a workaround for identifying livepathes without
depending on modinfo during the modpost stage. It was moved to this
patch as the approach also shown to be useful while building
symbols.klp.

Livepatches may use symbols which are not contained in its own scope,
and, because of that, may end up compiled with relocations that will
only be resolved during module load. Yet, when the referenced symbols
are not exported, solving this relocation requires information on the
object that holds the symbol (either vmlinux or modules) and its
position inside the object, as an object may contain multiple symbols
with the same name. Providing such information must be done accordingly
to what is specified in Documentation/livepatch/module-elf-format.txt.

Currently, there is no trivial way to embed the required information as
requested in the final livepatch elf object. klp-convert solves this
problem in two different forms: (i) by relying on symbols.klp, which is
built during kernel compilation, to automatically infer the relocation
targeted symbol, and, when such inference is not possible (ii) by using
annotations in the elf object to convert the relocation accordingly to
the specification, enabling it to be handled by the livepatch loader.

Given the above, create scripts/livepatch to hold tools developed for
livepatches and add source files for klp-convert there.

The core file of klp-convert is scripts/livepatch/klp-convert.c, which
implements the heuristics used to solve the relocations and the
conversion of unresolved symbols into the expected format, as defined in
[1].

klp-convert receives as arguments the symbols.klp file, an input
livepatch module to be converted and the output name for the converted
livepatch. When it starts running, klp-convert parses symbols.klp and
builds two internal lists of symbols, one containing the exported and
another containing the non-exported symbols. Then, by parsing the rela
sections in the elf object, klp-convert identifies which symbols must be
converted, which are those unresolved and that do not have a
corresponding exported symbol, and attempts to convert them accordingly
to the specification.

By using symbols.klp, klp-convert identifies which symbols have names
that only appear in a single kernel object, thus being capable of
resolving these cases without the intervention of the developer. When
various homonymous symbols exist through kernel objects, it is not
possible to infer the right one, thus klp-convert falls back into using
developer annotations. If these were not provided, then the tool will
print a list with all acceptable targets for the symbol being processed.

Annotations in the context of klp-convert are accessible as struct
klp_module_reloc entries in sections named .klp.module_relocs.<objname>.
These entries are pairs of symbol references and positions which are to
be resolved against definitions in <objname>.

Define the structure klp_module_reloc in include/linux/uapi/livepatch.h
allowing developers to annotate the livepatch source code with it.

klp-convert relies on libelf and on a list implementation. Add files
scripts/livepatch/elf.c and scripts/livepatch/elf.h, which are a libelf
interfacing layer and scripts/livepatch/list.h, which is a list
implementation.

Update Makefiles to correctly support the compilation of the new tool,
update MAINTAINERS file and add a .gitignore file.

  To: live-patching, linux-kernel, linux-kbuild

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>

Add a new livepatch sample in samples/livepatch/ to make use of symbols
that must be post-processed to enable load-time relocation resolution.
As the new sample is to be used as an example, it is annotated with
KLP_MODULE_RELOC and with KLP_SYMPOS macros.

The livepatch sample updates the function cmdline_proc_show to print the
string referenced by the symbol saved_command_line appended by the
string "livepatch=1".

Update livepatch-sample.c to remove livepatch MODULE_INFO statement.

-5. Symbol table and Elf section access
+5. Automatic conversion of unresolved relocations
+=================================================
+Sometimes livepatches may operate on symbols which are not self-contained nor
+exported. When this happens, these symbols remain unresolved in the elf object
+and will trigger an error during the livepatch instantiation.
+
+Whenever possible, the kernel building infrastructure solves this problem
+automatically. First, a symbol database containing information on all compiled
+objects is built. Second, this database - a file named symbols.klp, placed in
+the kernel source root directory - is used to identify targets for unresolved
+relocations, converting them in the livepatch elf accordingly to the
+specifications above-described. While the first stage is fully handled by the
+building system, the second is done by a tool called klp-convert, which can be
+found in "scripts/livepatch".
+
+When an unresolved relocation has as target a symbol whose name is also used by
+different symbols throughout the kernel, the relocation cannot be resolved
+automatically. In these cases, the livepatch developer must add annotations to
+the livepatch, making it possible for the system to identify which is the
+correct target amongst multiple homonymous symbols. Such annotations must be
+done through a data structure as follows:::
+
+	struct KLP_MODULE_RELOC(object) data_structure_name[] = {
+		KLP_SYMPOS(symbol, pos)
+	};
+
+In the above example, object refers to the object file which contains the
+symbol, being vmlinux or a module; symbol refers to the symbol name that will
+be relocated and pos is its position in the object.
+
+When a data structure like this is added to the livepatch, the resulting elf
+will hold symbols that will be identified by klp-convert and used to solve name
+ambiguities.
+
+6. Symbol table and Elf section access
 ======================================
 A livepatch module's symbol table is accessible through module->symtab.

  To: live-patching, linux-kernel, linux-kbuild

Add a test case in which klp-convert needs to convert a symbol that is
shared across ELF sections.  Special sections like .altinstructions do
this.  It is possible that symbols may be shared across various .text
sections as well.

GCC can rename symbols like static data and optimized functions, adding
a suffix that includes illegal C characters.  Extend the klp-convert
examples to demonstrate how to use __asm__ renaming from C code to
create klp-relocations to such renamed symbols.

Add a test which creates a variety of klp-data-relocations.  Note that
this test case exercises late-klp-relocations for references to data.
For this, we only need to adjust pointer storage classes (and not the
target data) to affect where the relocation ends up.

From: Joe Lawrence @ 2022-02-16 16:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: live-patching, linux-kernel, linux-kbuild

Add a livepatch kselftest that exercises klp-convert support for static
keys:

  - Use static_branch_(un)likely() on vmlinux-defined keys, forcing
    .rela__jump_table klp-relocations for them.

  - Use only static_key_enable() on module-defined keys, creating .text
    klp-relocations for them.

I wasn't sure if relocations in .rela.<read-only> sections should be
supported or not, particularly in the late relocation use case.  For
most, I think they can be easily avoided by the livepatch author
changing the storage class for the C pointer that is relocated.  On the
other hand, this may be disruptive to automated tools like
kpatch-build... or maybe there is no issue at all for late relocating
.rela.<read-only>?

This was a hack I added to force a consistent width for the symbol
pointer in case the user was building for 32-bit.  The actual void
*sym64 value itself is not so interesting as it's only needed for the
compiler to create a relocation (later resolved by klp-convert).  That
said, sympos is used by klp-convert, and I bet it's not endian-safe
here.

Better suggestions welcome :)

I'm not sure how portable it is using __asm__("new.name"), but it seems
to work with versions of GCC that I've tried.  Other tools like
kpatch-build can manipulate such symbols directly, but for anything that
needs to feed the C compiler, some kind of workaround is needed to
create klp-relocations for them.

FWIW, the trick works through the KLP_SYMPOS macro annotations as well,
for example:

  void pfn_valid_part_0(void) __asm__("pfn_valid.part.0");
  KLP_MODULE_RELOC(kvm) kvm_main_relocs[] = {
  	KLP_SYMPOS(pfn_valid_part_0, 0),
  };

This started getting a bit repetitive, and maybe belongs to its own set
of klp-convert unit tests (as the selftests seem closer to integration
type tests).

Anyway, I left in the .rela.<read-only> type relocations as mentioned in
the [RFC PATCH v6 03/12] livepatch: Add klp-convert tool [1].  We can
talk about whether such sections should be supported over there.

As for this test, it currently crashes ppc64le as it generates a late
klp-relocation type R_PPC64_ADDR64 in a section that was marked RO.
(IIRC such ppc64le data relocations to other .rela.<text> sections are
safe as they aren't marked RO.)

A general (selftests) question: is there any build mechanism in the
kernel tree that is used to *expect* build failure?

Under certain circumstances, we would need klp-convert to fail and it
would be helpful to test for that.  At the moment I am considered out of
tree tests that could exercise the code this way, but definitely prefer
anything that is already in-tree.

Thanks,

I do not see the related code in scripts/Makefile.build.

Honestly, I do not understand what it exactly means that "in-tree
livepatches would occasionally be post-processed incorrectly".

Is it the problem that modpost is not able to handle the unresolved
symbols that have to be updated by klp-convert?

All the tricky code is removed in the 5th patch. My understanding is
that the problem causing the cyclic dependency is solved by modifying
modpost.

It looks like this patch is outdated and mostly obsoleted. On the
other hand, the commit message in 5th patch is too short.

What about merging the two patches and updating the commit message?

All the update_*() functions have the same pattern. They replace
the original buffer with a bigger one when needed. And the pointer
to the original buffer gets lost.

I guess that the original buffer could not be freed because
it is part of a bigger allocated blob. Or it might even be
a file mapped to memory.

It looks like a memory leak. We could probably ignore it.
But there is another related danger, see below.

We do not free the bigger buffers when something goes wrong.
Also this is not that important. But it is easy to fix:

We might do:

	int ret_shstrtab = 0;
	int ret_strtab = 0;
	int ret_symtab = 0;
	int ret_relas = 0;

	if (ret_strtab < 0) {
		ret = ret_strtab;
		goto out;
	}

	if (ret_symtab < 0) {
		ret = ret_symtab;
		goto out;
	}

	if (ret_relas < 0) {
		ret = ret_relas;
		goto out;
	}

	Continue even when write_file(elf, file) returns an error.

out:

> +	if (ret_relas > 0)
> +		free_relas(elf);

Another problem is that the free_*() functions release the
bigger buffers. But they do not put back the original ones. Also
all the updated offsets and indexes point to the bigger buffers.
As a result the structures can't be made consistent any longer.

I am not sure if there is an easy way to fix it. IMHO, proper solution
is not worth a big effort. klp-convert frees everthing after writing
the elf file.

Well, we should at least make a comment above elf_write_file() about
that the structures are damaged in this way.


Finally, my main concern:

It brings a question whether the written data were consistent.

I am not familiar with the elf format. I quess that it is rather
stable. But there might still be some differences between
architectures or some new extensions that might need special handing.

I do not see any big consistency checks in the gelf_update_ehdr(),
elf_update(), or elf_end() functions that are used when writing
the changes.

But there seems to be some thorough consistency checks provided by:

    readelf --enable-checks

It currently see these warnings:

$> readelf --lint lib/livepatch/test_klp_convert2.ko >/dev/null
readelf: Warning: Section '.note.GNU-stack': has a size of zero - is this intended ?

$> readelf --lint lib/livepatch/test_klp_callbacks_mod.ko >/dev/null
readelf: Warning: Section '.data': has a size of zero - is this intended ?
readelf: Warning: Section '.note.GNU-stack': has a size of zero - is this intended ?

readelf: Warning: Section '.data': has a size of zero - is this intended ?
readelf: Warning: Section '.note.GNU-stack': has a size of zero - is this intended ?

But I see this warnings even without this patchset. I wonder if it
might really help to find problems introduced by klp-convert or
if it would be a waste of time.

Petr

Yes, please merge those patches.  These '$(shell ...)' side-effect lines in the
definition of 'cmd_klp_map' are quite confusing.

Hi Petr,

Looking at this code, I would agree that it looks very suspicious with
respect to leaking memory.  Then I remembered that I had been testing
with valgrind and it hadn't reported any lost allocations.

I was confused, so to verify, I fired up gdb with conditional
breakpoints (when the passed pointer was one of the clobbered X-Y->d_buf
pointers) on glibc's __GI___libc_free() and found that these buffers
were all handled by libelf's elf_end() function:

	/* The section data is allocated if we couldn't mmap
	   the file.  */
	if (elf->map_address == NULL)
	  free (scn->rawdata_base);

The program, in the name of efficiency or developer expediency (I dunno,
I didn't create it), ends up creating a few file representations:

  1) libelf's internal representation of the input ELF file
  2) klp-convert's structures (see elf.h)
       a) derived from the previous (1)
       b) modified for klp-relocations
  3) klp-convert's new Elf structure for the output ELF file (see
     write_file())
       a) information from (2b) is used to create consistent structures

And so representation (2) ends up with some data values (enums, etc.)
from (1) which is OK.  In a few places, however, it copies the buffer
pointers from (1)... and then as you noticed, may need to realloc them
for step (2b).  Now buffer ownership is muddled and depends on the
runtime situation.

Do you think it would be worth some refactoring to try and keep library
and program allocated memory separate?  In cases where klp-convert only
needs to read memory, perhaps a naming or scoping convention could help.
For those re-allocations, I can't think of anything clever aside from
separate buffers or noting original (ie, library) pointer values.

Yes, that's a good recommendation.  I think this would improve the error
handling and isn't too hard to implement.

The assumption in the code seems to be that elf_write_file() and the
update_*() functions it calls would only ever be done once.

And then, I think, that the new output file Elf structure created by
write_file() and passed to elf_update(), would have consistent offset
and indexes since the klp-converted structures are iterated in order as
appropriate gelf_update_*() are called.

If something else looks amiss, please point it out and I can try to
verify using my tests.

If you have specifics in mind, I can verify empirically and research
if/how libelf abstracts this for us or not (endianness in cross-arch
scenarios, for example).

Interesting, I didn't know about readelf --enable-checks / --lint.  Do
you know if this is any different from elflint?

In any case, I can take a look at those, but as you noticed, it looks
like all of the complaints also crop up outside of klp-convert cases.  I
wonder if kernel linker script is unconditionally creating those
zero-sized sections?

Sure.  Admittedly the kbuild integration is most confusing to me, so I
leaned heavily on Joao's original notes and Masahiro's gracious tips and
refactored code.  I'll try cutting to the final version in later patches
rather than providing all the (confusing) code evolution along the way.

Thanks,

The WARN message could be simplified by mentioning the different position,
something like:

	WARN("Conflicting KLP_SYMPOS definition: %s.%s %d vs. %d.",
	sp->object_name, sp->symbol_name, sp->pos aux->pos);

At this point I believe that sane should be assigned to false to help the user
to know that the specified symbol isn't being used in the livepatch.

Since found is either NULL or points to a symbol, the if condition can be
removed and return found directly.

At this point I believe that it would be good to have a comment about sympos
being 0 means that the symbol wasn't specified by the user, so sympos 0 means
that the symbol is unique.

Hi Joe,

I send reviews to some patches of the v6 batch, but there is currently a v7 in
your github profile. I believe that I sent Rb for patches that are the same
between versions.

The current version is almost one year older already. Do you plan to send v7
soon?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Marcos,

Thanks for the reviews and indeed, it has been a while since v6.

For v7, I would like to rebase on top of v6.2 so it includes the recent
x86/ppc64le relocation fixes from Song/Josh.

There are still a fair number of design questions that I have.. but a
fresh version will be much easier to test and review.  I'll try to get
it posted in the new few weeks.
