Subject: [PATCH] Revised generic dead function optimisation
Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2000 13:53:24 +1000 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000427035324.E46C6509B2@brixi.research.canon.com.au> (raw)

Hello again,

Thanks to Andrew Morton's feedback, I've realised that my previous patch for
dead function optimisation on all architectures was patching a wrong file for
i386, causing a major linker slowdown. It's now fixed.

This is my current latest-and-greatest patch to 2.2.x, with updated rationale:

Dead Function Optimisation
--------------------------

The following patch allows gcc/ld to automatically optimise unused functions
and data out of the kernel. In particular they will now optimise away
functions which aren't ever called, even if other functions in the same object
are. I consider this less error prone than relying on other people to wrap all
combinations of their unused functions in #ifdef CONFIG_..., and it's
particularly good if you're building a kernel for embedded systems which don't
use stuff like /proc fs, support for which isn't always wrapped in #ifdefs.

Doing this has turned out to be distinctly non-trivial, so I've described the
changes in detail below. It's been tested on ppc and i386, but should work on
all architectures in the 2.2.x tree. I'm interested to hear from people who
can try it on other architectures too. Make sure your gcc and binutils support
the -ffunction-sections and --gc-sections flags, or you'll see no effect.

Here is the rational behind what I've done in the patch:

1. enable gcc's -ffunction-sections/-fdata-sections options, and ld's
   --gc-sections option in the top Makefile, which together work all the
   magic. You need a recent enough gcc and binutils to have these flags
   actually turn on.

   That causes a whole host of stuff to break, so fix the resulting damage:

2. The section namespace used by -ffunction-sections (.text.*) clashes with
   those used by all the include/asm/init.h's (e.g. .text.init), so I renamed
   all such sections from .text.x to .x.text. Similarly for .data.x.

3. The user space exception fixup __ex_table search uses a binary chop. This
   relies on references to instructions which may fault on user space accesses
   being in the table in ascending address order. Unfortunately, a bug in all
   previous versions of the linker reverses the order of the orphan .text.*
   sections generated using -ffunction-sections when an intermediate "ld -r"
   is done, causing the binary search to fail.

   I tried a number of approaches to workaround this, including using "ar"
   instead (as I did in the last patch), and asking the binutils folk to fix
   the linker bug, which they have graciously taken on.

   However, my prefered solution (used in this patch) is to put all the
   __ex_table entries from seperate functions into seperate sections named
   __ex_table.__FUNCTION__, mirroring what -ffunction-sections does with
   .text . Since the linker reorders both sets of sections consistently,
   this keeps the __ex_table sorted with respect to the output .text.* section
   ordering both with and without the linker bug fixed.

   Assembler code continues to lump everything in .text, with ex_table entries
   in __ex_table. Hence, the patch won't attempt to optimise away dead
   assembler functions. Not yet, anyway.

4. Mods to the vmlinux.lds files to keep the world in sync:

   Added entries for .text.*, .data.* and __ex_table.* to the .text, .data and
   __ex_table output sections respectively. My previous assertion that you
   could use .text* and .data* instead, and mix and match code compiled with
   and without -ffunction-sections turned out to be totally bogus, partly
   because the intermediate "ld -r" steps use the linker's default .lds file,
   where .text and .data are matched explicitly, but all the .text.* and
   .data.* sections end up as orphans. Sorry. I didn't want to change the
   kernel build procedure that much.

   Changed the .text/data.init et al to .init.text/data, as per init.h

   KEEP the __ex_table and __ksymtab, otherwise they get optimised away.

   Add an explicit ENTRY(_start) in the ppc .lds file to prevent
   everything getting optimised away(!) because no external references exist.
   The other architectures already had ENTRY.
   
   Added the __ksymtab section to arch/ppc/vmlinux.lds, where it was missing.

   Note that arch/i386/vmlinux.lds is generated from arch/i386/vmlinux.lds.S,
   so we patch that instead.

5. I've added a check_exception_table function to check_bugs in the ppc
   to ensure that the table really is in ascending order, since it's not real
   noticable when it's broken until a rogue program passes a bad pointer to
   the kernel. This may be temporary; I'm trying to save space, after all.

6. The __get/put_user_asm macros in include/asm-ppc/uaccess.h were making an
   explicit reference to ".text", rather than using ".previous" like other
   architectures do. This caused me much grief, and should be fixed for
   consistency anyway.

7. There is what looks like a gratuitous ".text" pseudo-op in
   include/asm-mips/semaphore-helper.h. It's likely to break things, so I
   removed it.

8. Updated the commentary in Documentation/exception.txt a tiny bit.

This mucks with the exception table somewhat, so if you want to try this out,
make sure you test that a program which generates a bad user space access
doesn't kernel panic. Something like:

    #include <unistd.h>

    int main()
    {
	printf("bad write returned %d\n", write(1, 0, 1));
	perror("write");
	return 0;
    }

Please let me know what you think!

+The exception table search uses a binary chop, which requires the entries
+in the table pointing to the instructions which may fault on a user space
+access to be in listed in ascending instruction address order. This
+plays some havoc with -ffunction-sections, which puts each function in its
+own section named .text.__FUNCTION__, allowing the linker to perform dead
+function optimisation. The linker has the liberty to move these .text.*
+sections around, so to keep the output __ex_table in sync, the __ex_table
+entries are actually placed in sections named __ex_table.__FUNCTION__, which
+may get moved around in a corresponding manner by the linker.
+
+include/asm-*/uaccess.h use a macro __EX_TABLE rather than the explicitly
+naming __ex_table in the .section references as shown above, to allow this
+behaviour to be turned on and off according to whether -ffunction-sections
+is being used, since old compilers do not support it.
