haven't been reviewed (they are new). Thought honestly the reverts don't really
need a review.

Julien, Stefano, I dropped Julien's Ack on

 [PATCH v8.1 11/27] xsplice: Implement payload loading

as Jan's expressed a desire not to have BITS_PER_LONG exposed
in the public headers. I've put CONFIG_ARM_32 in there. On IRC
Stefano was OK (relucantly) with it.

Patchset has been tested on ARM (tweaking the Kconfig to build xSplice and then
booting and using it under ARM CubieTruck - granted there is no patching
yet but the hypercalls work), ARM64 (only built it), and x86 (legacy and EFI)

*VERSION_OP being reverted?*

Ian (thank you taking the stressful role of tiebreaker) pointed out that
at the end of the day - less code from a maintaince perspective is easier.
Hence the revert. We can always revisit this in Xen 4.8 :-)

*Are there any TODOs left from v5,v6,v7 reviews?*

Just how the sysctl.h definition for 'struct xsplice_patch_func' should be:

#define XSPLICE_PAYLOAD_VERSION 1
/*
 * .xsplice.funcs structure layout defined in the `Payload format`
 * section in the xSplice design document.
 *
 * The size should be exactly 64 bytes (64) or 52 bytes (32).
 *
 * We guard this with __XEN__ as toolstacks do not need to use it.
 */
#ifdef __XEN__
struct xsplice_patch_func {
    const char *name;       /* Name of function to be patched. */
#if CONFIG_ARM_32
    uint32_t new_addr;
    uint32_t old_addr;
#else
    uint64_t new_addr;
    uint64_t old_addr;      /* Can be zero and name will be looked up. */
#endif
    uint32_t new_size;
    uint32_t old_size;
    uint8_t version;        /* MUST be XSPLICE_PAYLOAD_VERSION. */
    uint8_t pad[31];        /* MUST be zero filled. */
};
typedef struct xsplice_patch_func xsplice_patch_func_t;
#endif

Please note the __XEN__ so even if toolstack does include the public/sysctl.h
it won't find it the structure.

With this I am able to compile early-test-cases-prototype-work xSplice on ARM32.

*What is xSplice?*

A mechanism to binarily patch the running hypervisor with new
opcodes that have come about due to primarily security updates.

*What will this patchset do once I've it*

Patch the hypervisor.

*Why are you emailing me?*

Please please review as many patches as possible.

*OK, what do you have?*

They are located at a git tree:
  git://xenbits.xen.org/people/konradwilk/xen.git   xsplice.v8.drop_VERSION_op

(Copying from Ross's email):

Much of the work is implementing a basic version of the Linux kernel module
loader. The code:
* Loading of xSplice ELF payloads.
* Copying allocated sections into a new executable region of memory.
* Resolving symbols.
* Applying relocations.
* Patching of altinstructions.
* Special handling of bug frames and exception tables.
* Unloading of xSplice ELF payloads.
* Compiling a sample xSplice ELF payload
* Resolving symbols
* Using build-id dependencies
* Support for shadow variable framework
* Support for executing ELF payload functions on load/unload.

The other main bit of this work is applying and reverting the patches safely.
As implemented, the code is patched with each CPU waiting in the
return-to-guest path (i.e. with no stack) or on the cpu-idle path
which appears to be the safest way of patching. While it is safe we should
still (in the next wave of patches) to verify to not patch cetain critical
sections (say the code doing the patching)

All of the following should work:
* Applying patches safely.
* Reverting patches safely.
* Replacing patches safely (e.g. reverting any applied patches and applying
   a new patch).
* Bug frames as part of modules. This means adding or
  changing WARN, ASSERT, BUG, and run_in_exception_handler works correctly.
  Line number only changes _are ignored_.
* Exception tables as part of modules. E.g. wrmsr_safe and copy_to_user work
  correctly when used in a patch module.
* Stacking of patches on top of each other
* Resolving symbols (even of patches)

*Limitations*

The above is enough to fully implement an update system where multiple source
patches are combined (using combinediff) and built into a single binary
which then atomically replaces any existing loaded patches
(this is why Ross added a REPLACE operation). This is the approach used
by kPatch and kGraft.

Multiple completely independent patches can also be loaded but unexpected
interactions may occur.

As it stands, the patches are statically linked which means that independent
patches cannot be linked against one another (e.g. if one introduces a
new symbol). Using the combinediff approach above fixes this.

Backtraces containing functions from a patch module do not show the symbol name.

There is no checking that a patch which is loaded is built for the
correct hypervisor (need to use build-id).

Binary patching works at the function level.

*Testing*

You can use the example code included in this patchset:

# xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : -unstable
# xen-xsplice load /usr/lib/debug/xen_hello_world.xsplice
Uploading /usr/lib/debug/xen_hello_world.xsplice (2071 bytes)
Performing check: completed
Performing apply:. completed
# xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : Hello World
# xen-xsplice revert xen_hello_world
Performing revert:. completed
# xen-xsplice unload xen_hello_world
Performing unload: completed
# xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : -unstable

Or you can use git://xenbits.xen.org/people/konradwilk/xsplice-build-tools.git
which generates the ELF payloads.

This link has a nice description of how to use the tool:

This reverts commit d275ec9ca8a86f7c9c213f3551194d471ce90fbd.

As we prefer to still utilize the old XENVER_ hypercall.

This reverts commit 2716d875379d538c1dfccad78a99ca7db2e09f90.

As it was decided that the existing XENVER hypercall - while having
grown organically over the years can still be expanded.

A mechanism is required to binarily patch the running hypervisor with new
opcodes that have come about due to primarily security updates.

This document describes the design of the API that would allow us to
upload to the hypervisor binary patches.

This document has been shaped by the input from:
  Martin Pohlack <mpohlack@amazon.de>
  Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>

Thank you!

v1-2: review
v3: Split document in v1 and v2 (todo) to simplify implementation goals.
 - Add const on some structures. Truncate size to uint16_t where it makes sense.
 - Convert 'id' to 'name', Add Ross's comments about what is implemented.
 - Wei's and Ross's reviews.
 - Jan's review comments.
 - Jan's review comments.
    s/int32_t state/uint32_t state/ now that return code is in seperate
    field (rc). Add various other types, such as R_X86_64_PC64 in the list.
    Mention the need for compiler check.
v4:
 - Drop the LOADED->CHECKED state and go directly to CHECKED state. Drop
    LOADED.
v5: Julien mentioned ARM 32-bit would not use ELF64, so make the .xsplice.func
    use uintXX_t types instead of ELF ones. Remove the OUT on idx subfield.
    Mention that 'nr' being zero can be used for probing the number of payloads.
    Update what 'idx' means.
v6: Update what 'idx' means again!
    Move the "Interdependencies section" to make it easier to in the design
    doc the movement of text (when the patch implements it).
    Add also 'version' field to payload.

+# xSplice Design v1
+
+## Rationale
+
+A mechanism is required to binarily patch the running hypervisor with new
+opcodes that have come about due to primarily security updates.
+
+This document describes the design of the API that would allow us to
+upload to the hypervisor binary patches.
+
+The document is split in four sections:
+
+ * Detailed descriptions of the problem statement.
+ * Design of the data structures.
+ * Design of the hypercalls.
+ * Implementation notes that should be taken into consideration.
+
+
+## Glossary
+
+ * splice - patch in the binary code with new opcodes
+ * trampoline - a jump to a new instruction.
+ * payload - telemetries of the old code along with binary blob of the new
+   function (if needed).
+ * reloc - telemetries contained in the payload to construct proper trampoline.
+
+## History
+
+The document has gone under various reviews and only covers v1 design.
+
+The end of the document has a section titled `Not Yet Done` which
+outlines ideas and design for the future version of this work.
+
+## Multiple ways to patch
+
+The mechanism needs to be flexible to patch the hypervisor in multiple ways
+and be as simple as possible. The compiled code is contiguous in memory with
+no gaps - so we have no luxury of 'moving' existing code and must either
+insert a trampoline to the new code to be executed - or only modify in-place
+the code if there is sufficient space. The placement of new code has to be done
+by hypervisor and the virtual address for the new code is allocated dynamically.
+
+This implies that the hypervisor must compute the new offsets when splicing
+in the new trampoline code. Where the trampoline is added (inside
+the function we are patching or just the callers?) is also important.
+
+To lessen the amount of code in hypervisor, the consumer of the API
+is responsible for identifying which mechanism to employ and how many locations
+to patch. Combinations of modifying in-place code, adding trampoline, etc
+has to be supported. The API should allow read/write any memory within
+the hypervisor virtual address space.
+
+We must also have a mechanism to query what has been applied and a mechanism
+to revert it if needed.
+
+## Workflow
+
+The expected workflows of higher-level tools that manage multiple patches
+on production machines would be:
+
+ * The first obvious task is loading all available / suggested
+   hotpatches when they are available.
+ * Whenever new hotpatches are installed, they should be loaded too.
+ * One wants to query which modules have been loaded at runtime.
+ * If unloading is deemed safe (see unloading below), one may want to
+   support a workflow where a specific hotpatch is marked as bad and
+   unloaded.
+
+## Patching code
+
+The first mechanism to patch that comes in mind is in-place replacement.
+That is replace the affected code with new code. Unfortunately the x86
+ISA is variable size which places limits on how much space we have available
+to replace the instructions. That is not a problem if the change is smaller
+than the original opcode and we can fill it with nops. Problems will
+appear if the replacement code is longer.
+
+The second mechanism is by ti replace the call or jump to the
+old function with the address of the new function.
+
+A third mechanism is to add a jump to the new function at the
+start of the old function. N.B. The Xen hypervisor implements the third
+mechanism. See `Trampoline (e9 opcode)` section for more details.
+
+### Example of trampoline and in-place splicing
+
+As example we will assume the hypervisor does not have XSA-132 (see
+*domctl/sysctl: don't leak hypervisor stack to toolstacks*
+4ff3449f0e9d175ceb9551d3f2aecb59273f639d) and we would like to binary patch
+the hypervisor with it. The original code looks as so:
+
+<pre>
+   48 89 e0                  mov    %rsp,%rax  
+   48 25 00 80 ff ff         and    $0xffffffffffff8000,%rax  
+</pre>
+
+while the new patched hypervisor would be:
+
+<pre>
+   48 c7 45 b8 00 00 00 00   movq   $0x0,-0x48(%rbp)  
+   48 c7 45 c0 00 00 00 00   movq   $0x0,-0x40(%rbp)  
+   48 c7 45 c8 00 00 00 00   movq   $0x0,-0x38(%rbp)  
+   48 89 e0                  mov    %rsp,%rax  
+   48 25 00 80 ff ff         and    $0xffffffffffff8000,%rax  
+</pre>
+
+This is inside the arch_do_domctl. This new change adds 21 extra
+bytes of code which alters all the offsets inside the function. To alter
+these offsets and add the extra 21 bytes of code we might not have enough
+space in .text to squeeze this in.
+
+As such we could simplify this problem by only patching the site
+which calls arch_do_domctl:
+
+<pre>
+do_domctl:  
+ e8 4b b1 05 00          callq  ffff82d08015fbb9 <arch_do_domctl>  
+</pre>
+
+with a new address for where the new `arch_do_domctl` would be (this
+area would be allocated dynamically).
+
+Astute readers will wonder what we need to do if we were to patch `do_domctl`
+- which is not called directly by hypervisor but on behalf of the guests via
+the `compat_hypercall_table` and `hypercall_table`.
+Patching the offset in `hypercall_table` for `do_domctl:
+(ffff82d080103079 <do_domctl>:)
+
+<pre>
+
+ ffff82d08024d490:   79 30  
+ ffff82d08024d492:   10 80 d0 82 ff ff   
+
+</pre>
+
+with the new address where the new `do_domctl` is possible. The other
+place where it is used is in `hvm_hypercall64_table` which would need
+to be patched in a similar way. This would require an in-place splicing
+of the new virtual address of `arch_do_domctl`.
+
+In summary this example patched the callee of the affected function by
+ * allocating memory for the new code to live in,
+ * changing the virtual address in all the functions which called the old
+   code (computing the new offset, patching the callq with a new callq).
+ * changing the function pointer tables with the new virtual address of
+   the function (splicing in the new virtual address). Since this table
+   resides in the .rodata section we would need to temporarily change the
+   page table permissions during this part.
+
+However it has drawbacks - the safety checks which have to make sure
+the function is not on the stack - must also check every caller. For some
+patches this could mean - if there were an sufficient large amount of
+callers - that we would never be able to apply the update.
+
+Having the patching done at predetermined instances where the stacks
+are not deep mostly solves this problem.
+
+### Example of different trampoline patching.
+
+An alternative mechanism exists where we can insert a trampoline in the
+existing function to be patched to jump directly to the new code. This
+lessens the locations to be patched to one but it puts pressure on the
+CPU branching logic (I-cache, but it is just one unconditional jump).
+
+For this example we will assume that the hypervisor has not been compiled
+with fe2e079f642effb3d24a6e1a7096ef26e691d93e (XSA-125: *pre-fill structures
+for certain HYPERVISOR_xen_version sub-ops*) which mem-sets an structure
+in `xen_version` hypercall. This function is not called **anywhere** in
+the hypervisor (it is called by the guest) but referenced in the
+`compat_hypercall_table` and `hypercall_table` (and indirectly called
+from that). Patching the offset in `hypercall_table` for the old
+`do_xen_version` (ffff82d080112f9e <do_xen_version>)
+
+</pre>
+ ffff82d08024b270 <hypercall_table>:   
+ ...  
+ ffff82d08024b2f8:   9e 2f 11 80 d0 82 ff ff  
+
+</pre>
+
+with the new address where the new `do_xen_version` is possible. The other
+place where it is used is in `hvm_hypercall64_table` which would need
+to be patched in a similar way. This would require an in-place splicing
+of the new virtual address of `do_xen_version`.
+
+An alternative solution would be to patch insert a trampoline in the
+old `do_xen_version' function to directly jump to the new `do_xen_version`.
+
+<pre>
+ ffff82d080112f9e do_xen_version:  
+ ffff82d080112f9e:       48 c7 c0 da ff ff ff    mov    $0xffffffffffffffda,%rax  
+ ffff82d080112fa5:       83 ff 09                cmp    $0x9,%edi  
+ ffff82d080112fa8:       0f 87 24 05 00 00       ja     ffff82d0801134d2 ; do_xen_version+0x534  
+</pre>
+
+with:
+
+<pre>
+ ffff82d080112f9e do_xen_version:  
+ ffff82d080112f9e:       e9 XX YY ZZ QQ          jmpq   [new do_xen_version]  
+</pre>
+
+which would lessen the amount of patching to just one location.
+
+In summary this example patched the affected function to jump to the
+new replacement function which required:
+ * allocating memory for the new code to live in,
+ * inserting trampoline with new offset in the old function to point to the
+   new function.
+ * Optionally we can insert in the old function a trampoline jump to an function
+   providing an BUG_ON to catch errant code.
+
+The disadvantage of this are that the unconditional jump will consume a small
+I-cache penalty. However the simplicity of the patching and higher chance
+of passing safety checks make this a worthwhile option.
+
+This patching has a similar drawback as inline patching - the safety
+checks have to make sure the function is not on the stack. However
+since we are replacing at a higher level (a full function as opposed
+to various offsets within functions) the checks are simpler.
+
+Having the patching done at predetermined instances where the stacks
+are not deep mostly solves this problem as well.
+
+### Security
+
+With this method we can re-write the hypervisor - and as such we **MUST** be
+diligent in only allowing certain guests to perform this operation.
+
+Furthermore with SecureBoot or tboot, we **MUST** also verify the signature
+of the payload to be certain it came from a trusted source and integrity
+was intact.
+
+As such the hypercall **MUST** support an XSM policy to limit what the guest
+is allowed to invoke. If the system is booted with signature checking the
+signature checking will be enforced.
+
+## Design of payload format
+
+The payload **MUST** contain enough data to allow us to apply the update
+and also safely reverse it. As such we **MUST** know:
+
+ * The locations in memory to be patched. This can be determined dynamically
+   via symbols or via virtual addresses.
+ * The new code that will be patched in.
+
+This binary format can be constructed using an custom binary format but
+there are severe disadvantages of it:
+
+ * The format might need to be changed and we need an mechanism to accommodate
+   that.
+ * It has to be platform agnostic.
+ * Easily constructed using existing tools.
+
+As such having the payload in an ELF file is the sensible way. We would be
+carrying the various sets of structures (and data) in the ELF sections under
+different names and with definitions.
+
+Note that every structure has padding. This is added so that the hypervisor
+can re-use those fields as it sees fit.
+
+Earlier design attempted to ineptly explain the relations of the ELF sections
+to each other without using proper ELF mechanism (sh_info, sh_link, data
+structures using Elf types, etc). This design will explain the structures
+and how they are used together and not dig in the ELF format - except mention
+that the section names should match the structure names.
+
+The xSplice payload is a relocatable ELF binary. A typical binary would have:
+
+ * One or more .text sections.
+ * Zero or more read-only data sections.
+ * Zero or more data sections.
+ * Relocations for each of these sections.
+
+It may also have some architecture-specific sections. For example:
+
+ * Alternatives instructions.
+ * Bug frames.
+ * Exception tables.
+ * Relocations for each of these sections.
+
+The xSplice core code loads the payload as a standard ELF binary, relocates it
+and handles the architecture-specifc sections as needed. This process is much
+like what the Linux kernel module loader does.
+
+The payload contains a section (xsplice_patch_func) with an array of structures
+describing the functions to be patched:
+
+<pre>
+struct xsplice_patch_func {  
+    const char *name;  
+    uint64_t new_addr;  
+    uint64_t old_addr;  
+    uint32_t new_size;  
+    uint32_t old_size;  
+    uint8_t version;  
+    uint8_t pad[31];  
+};  
+</pre>
+
+The size of the structure is 64 bytes.
+
+* `name` is the symbol name of the old function. Only used if `old_addr` is
+   zero, otherwise will be used during dynamic linking (when hypervisor loads
+   the payload).
+
+* `old_addr` is the address of the function to be patched and is filled in at
+  payload generation time if hypervisor function address is known. If unknown,
+  the value *MUST* be zero and the hypervisor will attempt to resolve the address.
+
+* `new_addr` is the address of the function that is replacing the old
+  function. The address is filled in during relocation. The value **MUST** be
+  the address of the new function in the file.
+
+* `old_size` and `new_size` contain the sizes of the respective functions in bytes.
+   The value of `old_size` **MUST** not be zero.
+
+* `version` is to be one.
+
+* `pad` **MUST** be zero.
+
+The size of the `xsplice_patch_func` array is determined from the ELF section
+size.
+
+When applying the patch the hypervisor iterates over each `xsplice_patch_func`
+structure and the core code inserts a trampoline at `old_addr` to `new_addr`.
+The `new_addr` is altered when the ELF payload is loaded.
+
+When reverting a patch, the hypervisor iterates over each `xsplice_patch_func`
+and the core code copies the data from the undo buffer (private internal copy)
+to `old_addr`.
+
+## Hypercalls
+
+We will employ the sub operations of the system management hypercall (sysctl).
+There are to be four sub-operations:
+
+ * upload the payloads.
+ * listing of payloads summary uploaded and their state.
+ * getting an particular payload summary and its state.
+ * command to apply, delete, or revert the payload.
+
+Most of the actions are asynchronous therefore the caller is responsible
+to verify that it has been applied properly by retrieving the summary of it
+and verifying that there are no error codes associated with the payload.
+
+We **MUST** make some of them asynchronous due to the nature of patching
+it requires every physical CPU to be lock-step with each other.
+The patching mechanism while an implementation detail, is not an short
+operation and as such the design **MUST** assume it will be an long-running
+operation.
+
+The sub-operations will spell out how preemption is to be handled (if at all).
+
+Furthermore it is possible to have multiple different payloads for the same
+function. As such an unique name per payload has to be visible to allow proper manipulation.
+
+The hypercall is part of the `xen_sysctl`. The top level structure contains
+one uint32_t to determine the sub-operations and one padding field which
+*MUST* always be zero.
+
+<pre>
+struct xen_sysctl_xsplice_op {  
+    uint32_t cmd;                   /* IN: XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_*. */  
+    uint32_t pad;                   /* IN: Always zero. */  
+	union {  
+          ... see below ...  
+        } u;  
+};  
+
+</pre>
+while the rest of hypercall specific structures are part of the this structure.
+
+### Basic type: struct xen_xsplice_name
+
+Most of the hypercalls employ an shared structure called `struct xen_xsplice_name`
+which contains:
+
+ * `name` - pointer where the string for the name is located.
+ * `size` - the size of the string
+ * `pad` - padding - to be zero.
+
+The structure is as follow:
+
+<pre>
+/*  
+ *  Uniquely identifies the payload.  Should be human readable.  
+ * Includes the NUL terminator  
+ */  
+#define XEN_XSPLICE_NAME_SIZE 128  
+struct xen_xsplice_name {  
+    XEN_GUEST_HANDLE_64(char) name;         /* IN, pointer to name. */  
+    uint16_t size;                          /* IN, size of name. May be upto   
+                                               XEN_XSPLICE_NAME_SIZE. */  
+    uint16_t pad[3];                        /* IN: MUST be zero. */ 
+};  
+</pre>
+
+### XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_UPLOAD (0)
+
+Upload a payload to the hypervisor. The payload is verified
+against basic checks and if there are any issues the proper return code
+will be returned. The payload is not applied at this time - that is
+controlled by *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_ACTION*.
+
+The caller provides:
+
+ * A `struct xen_xsplice_name` called `name` which has the unique name.
+ * `size` the size of the ELF payload (in bytes).
+ * `payload` the virtual address of where the ELF payload is.
+
+The `name` could be an UUID that stays fixed forever for a given
+payload. It can be embedded into the ELF payload at creation time
+and extracted by tools.
+
+The return value is zero if the payload was succesfully uploaded.
+Otherwise an -XEN_EXX return value is provided. Duplicate `name` are not supported.
+
+The `payload` is the ELF payload as mentioned in the `Payload format` section.
+
+The structure is as follow:
+
+<pre>
+struct xen_sysctl_xsplice_upload {  
+    xen_xsplice_name_t name;            /* IN, name of the patch. */  
+    uint64_t size;                      /* IN, size of the ELF file. */  
+    XEN_GUEST_HANDLE_64(uint8) payload; /* IN: ELF file. */  
+};  
+</pre>
+
+### XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET (1)
+
+Retrieve an status of an specific payload. This caller provides:
+
+ * A `struct xen_xsplice_name` called `name` which has the unique name.
+ * A `struct xen_xsplice_status` structure. The member values will
+   be over-written upon completion.
+
+Upon completion the `struct xen_xsplice_status` is updated.
+
+ * `status` - indicates the current status of the payload:
+   * *XSPLICE_STATUS_CHECKED*  (1) loaded and the ELF payload safety checks passed.
+   * *XSPLICE_STATUS_APPLIED* (2) loaded, checked, and applied.
+   *  No other value is possible.
+ * `rc` - -XEN_EXX type errors encountered while performing the last
+   XSPLICE_ACTION_* operation. The normal values can be zero or -XEN_EAGAIN which
+   respectively mean: success or operation in progress. Other values
+   imply an error occurred. If there is an error in `rc`, `status` will **NOT**
+   have changed.
+
+The return value of the hypercall is zero on success and -XEN_EXX on failure.
+(Note that the `rc`` value can be different from the return value, as in
+rc=-XEN_EAGAIN and return value can be 0).
+
+For example, supposing there is an payload:
+
+<pre>
+ status: XSPLICE_STATUS_CHECKED
+ rc: 0
+</pre>
+
+We apply an action - XSPLICE_ACTION_REVERT - to revert it (which won't work
+as we have not even applied it. Afterwards we will have:
+
+<pre>
+ status: XSPLICE_STATUS_CHECKED
+ rc: -XEN_EINVAL
+</pre>
+
+It has failed but it remains loaded.
+
+This operation is synchronous and does not require preemption.
+
+The structure is as follow:
+
+<pre>
+struct xen_xsplice_status {  
+#define XSPLICE_STATUS_CHECKED      1  
+#define XSPLICE_STATUS_APPLIED      2  
+    uint32_t state;                 /* OUT: XSPLICE_STATE_*. */  
+    int32_t rc;                     /* OUT: 0 if no error, otherwise -XEN_EXX. */  
+};  
+
+struct xen_sysctl_xsplice_get {  
+    xen_xsplice_name_t name;        /* IN, the name of the payload. */  
+    xen_xsplice_status_t status;    /* IN/OUT: status of the payload. */  
+};  
+</pre>
+
+### XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_LIST (2)
+
+Retrieve an array of abbreviated status and names of payloads that are loaded in the
+hypervisor.
+
+The caller provides:
+
+ * `version`. Version of the payload. Caller should re-use the field provided by
+    the hypervisor. If the value differs the data is stale.
+ * `idx` index iterator. The index into the hypervisor's payload count. It is
+    recommended that on first invocation zero be used so that `nr` (which the
+    hypervisor will update with the remaining payload count) be provided.
+    Also the hypervisor will provide `version` with the most current value.
+ * `nr` the max number of entries to populate. Can be zero which will result
+    in the hypercall being a probing one and return the number of payloads
+    (and update the `version`).
+ * `pad` - *MUST* be zero.
+ * `status` virtual address of where to write `struct xen_xsplice_status`
+   structures. Caller *MUST* allocate up to `nr` of them.
+ * `name` - virtual address of where to write the unique name of the payload.
+   Caller *MUST* allocate up to `nr` of them. Each *MUST* be of
+   **XEN_XSPLICE_NAME_SIZE** size. Note that **XEN_XSPLICE_NAME_SIZE** includes
+   the NUL terminator.
+ * `len` - virtual address of where to write the length of each unique name
+   of the payload. Caller *MUST* allocate up to `nr` of them. Each *MUST* be
+   of sizeof(uint32_t) (4 bytes).
+
+If the hypercall returns an positive number, it is the number (upto `nr`
+provided to the hypercall) of the payloads returned, along with `nr` updated
+with the number of remaining payloads, `version` updated (it may be the same
+across hypercalls - if it varies the data is stale and further calls could
+fail). The `status`, `name`, and `len`' are updated at their designed index
+value (`idx`) with the returned value of data.
+
+If the hypercall returns -XEN_E2BIG the `nr` is too big and should be
+lowered.
+
+If the hypercall returns an zero value there are no more payloads.
+
+Note that due to the asynchronous nature of hypercalls the control domain might
+have added or removed a number of payloads making this information stale. It is
+the responsibility of the toolstack to use the `version` field to check
+between each invocation. if the version differs it should discard the stale
+data and start from scratch. It is OK for the toolstack to use the new
+`version` field.
+
+The `struct xen_xsplice_status` structure contains an status of payload which includes:
+
+ * `status` - indicates the current status of the payload:
+   * *XSPLICE_STATUS_CHECKED*  (1) loaded and the ELF payload safety checks passed.
+   * *XSPLICE_STATUS_APPLIED* (2) loaded, checked, and applied.
+   *  No other value is possible.
+ * `rc` - -XEN_EXX type errors encountered while performing the last
+   XSPLICE_ACTION_* operation. The normal values can be zero or -XEN_EAGAIN which
+   respectively mean: success or operation in progress. Other values
+   imply an error occurred. If there is an error in `rc`, `status` will **NOT**
+   have changed.
+
+The structure is as follow:
+
+<pre>
+struct xen_sysctl_xsplice_list {  
+    uint32_t version;                       /* OUT: Hypervisor stamps value.
+                                               If varies between calls, we are

+### XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_ACTION (3)
+
+Perform an operation on the payload structure referenced by the `name` field.
+The operation request is asynchronous and the status should be retrieved
+by using either **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET** or **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_LIST** hypercall.
+
+The caller provides:
+
+ * A 'struct xen_xsplice_name` `name` containing the unique name.
+ * `cmd` the command requested:
+  * *XSPLICE_ACTION_CHECK* (1) check that the payload will apply properly.
+    This also verfies the payload - which may require SecureBoot firmware
+    calls. This is the initial state an payload is in.
+  * *XSPLICE_ACTION_UNLOAD* (2) unload the payload.
+   Any further hypercalls against the `name` will result in failure unless
+   **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_UPLOAD** hypercall is perfomed with same `name`.
+  * *XSPLICE_ACTION_REVERT* (3) revert the payload. If the operation takes
+  more time than the upper bound of time the `rc` in `xen_xsplice_status'
+  retrieved via **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET** will be -XEN_EBUSY.
+  * *XSPLICE_ACTION_APPLY* (4) apply the payload. If the operation takes
+  more time than the upper bound of time the `rc` in `xen_xsplice_status'
+  retrieved via **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET** will be -XEN_EBUSY.
+  * *XSPLICE_ACTION_REPLACE* (5) revert all applied payloads and apply this
+  payload. If the operation takes more time than the upper bound of time
+  the `rc` in `xen_xsplice_status' retrieved via **XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET**
+  will be -XEN_EBUSY.
+ * `time` the upper bound of time (ms) the cmd should take. Zero means infinite.
+   If within the time the operation does not succeed the operation would go in
+   error state.
+ * `pad` - *MUST* be zero.
+
+The return value will be zero unless the provided fields are incorrect.
+
+The structure is as follow:

+#define XSPLICE_ACTION_CHECK   1

+                                            /* for operation to take. */  
+};  
+
+</pre>
+
+## State diagrams of XSPLICE_ACTION commands.
+
+There is a strict ordering state of what the commands can be.
+The XSPLICE_ACTION prefix has been dropped to easy reading and
+does not include the XSPLICE_STATES:
+
+<pre>
+              /->\  
+              \  /  
+ UNLOAD <--- CHECK ---> REPLACE|APPLY --> REVERT --\  
+                \                                  |  
+                 \-------------------<-------------/  
+
+</pre>
+## State transition table of XSPLICE_ACTION commands and XSPLICE_STATUS.
+
+Note that:
+
+ - The CHECKED state is the starting one achieved with *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_UPLOAD* hypercall.
+ - The REVERT operation on success will automatically move to the CHECKED state.
+ - There are two STATES: CHECKED and APPLIED.
+ - There are five actions (aka commands): CHECK, APPLY, REPLACE, REVERT, and UNLOAD.
+
+The state transition table of valid states and action states:
+
+<pre>
+
++---------+---------+--------------------------------+-------+--------+
+| ACTION  | Current | Result                         | Next STATE:    |

++---------+---------+--------------------------------+-------+--------+
+| CHECK   | CHECKED | Check payload (once more, with |       |        |

++---------+---------+--------------------------------+-------+--------+
+</pre>
+
+All the other state transitions are invalid.
+
+## Sequence of events.
+
+The normal sequence of events is to:
+
+ 1. *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_UPLOAD* to upload the payload. If there are errors *STOP* here.
+ 2. *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET* to check the `->rc`. If *-XEN_EAGAIN* spin. If zero go to next step.
+ 3. *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_ACTION* with *XSPLICE_ACTION_APPLY* to apply the patch.
+ 4. *XEN_SYSCTL_XSPLICE_GET* to check the `->rc`. If in *-XEN_EAGAIN* spin. If zero exit with success.
+
+
+## Addendum
+
+Implementation quirks should not be discussed in a design document.
+
+However these observations can provide aid when developing against this
+document.
+
+
+### Alternative assembler
+
+Alternative assembler is a mechanism to use different instructions depending
+on what the CPU supports. This is done by providing multiple streams of code
+that can be patched in - or if the CPU does not support it - padded with
+`nop` operations. The alternative assembler macros cause the compiler to
+expand the code to place a most generic code in place - emit a special
+ELF .section header to tag this location. During run-time the hypervisor
+can leave the areas alone or patch them with an better suited opcodes.
+
+Note that patching functions that copy to or from guest memory requires
+to support alternative support. For example this can be due to SMAP
+(specifically *stac* and *clac* operations) which is enabled on Broadwell
+and later architectures. It may be related to other alternative instructions.
+
+### When to patch
+
+During the discussion on the design two candidates bubbled where
+the call stack for each CPU would be deterministic. This would
+minimize the chance of the patch not being applied due to safety
+checks failing. Safety checks such as not patching code which
+is on the stack - which can lead to corruption.
+
+#### Rendezvous code instead of stop_machine for patching
+
+The hypervisor's time rendezvous code runs synchronously across all CPUs
+every second. Using the stop_machine to patch can stall the time rendezvous
+code and result in NMI. As such having the patching be done at the tail
+of rendezvous code should avoid this problem.
+
+However the entrance point for that code is
+do_softirq->timer_softirq_action->time_calibration
+which ends up calling on_selected_cpus on remote CPUs.
+
+The remote CPUs receive CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR IPI and execute the
+desired function.
+
+#### Before entering the guest code.
+
+Before we call VMXResume we check whether any soft IRQs need to be executed.
+This is a good spot because all Xen stacks are effectively empty at
+that point.
+
+To randezvous all the CPUs an barrier with an maximum timeout (which
+could be adjusted), combined with forcing all other CPUs through the
+hypervisor with IPIs, can be utilized to execute lockstep instructions
+on all CPUs.
+
+The approach is similar in concept to stop_machine and the time rendezvous
+but is time-bound. However the local CPU stack is much shorter and
+a lot more deterministic.
+
+This is implemented in the Xen Project hypervisor.
+
+### Compiling the hypervisor code
+
+Hotpatch generation often requires support for compiling the target
+with -ffunction-sections / -fdata-sections.  Changes would have to
+be done to the linker scripts to support this.
+
+### Generation of xSplice ELF payloads
+
+The design of that is not discussed in this design.
+
+This is implemented in a seperate tool which lives in a seperate
+GIT repo.
+
+Currently it resides at https://github.com/rosslagerwall/xsplice-build
+
+### Exception tables and symbol tables growth
+
+We may need support for adapting or augmenting exception tables if
+patching such code.  Hotpatches may need to bring their own small
+exception tables (similar to how Linux modules support this).
+
+If supporting hotpatches that introduce additional exception-locations
+is not important, one could also change the exception table in-place
+and reorder it afterwards.
+
+As found almost every patch (XSA) to a non-trivial function requires
+additional entries in the exception table and/or the bug frames.
+
+This is implemented in the Xen Project hypervisor.
+
+### .rodata sections
+
+The patching might require strings to be updated as well. As such we must be
+also able to patch the strings as needed. This sounds simple - but the compiler
+has a habit of coalescing strings that are the same - which means if we in-place
+alter the strings - other users will be inadvertently affected as well.
+
+This is also where pointers to functions live - and we may need to patch this
+as well. And switch-style jump tables.
+
+To guard against that we must be prepared to do patching similar to
+trampoline patching or in-line depending on the flavour. If we can
+do in-line patching we would need to:
+
+ * alter `.rodata` to be writeable.
+ * inline patch.
+ * alter `.rodata` to be read-only.
+
+If are doing trampoline patching we would need to:
+
+ * allocate a new memory location for the string.
+ * all locations which use this string will have to be updated to use the
+   offset to the string.
+ * mark the region RO when we are done.
+
+The trampoline patching is implemented in the Xen Project hypervisor.
+
+### .bss and .data sections.
+
+In place patching writable data is not suitable as it is unclear what should be done
+depending on the current state of data. As such it should not be attempted.
+
+However, functions which are being patched can bring in changes to strings
+(.data or .rodata section changes), or even to .bss sections.
+
+As such the ELF payload can introduce new .rodata, .bss, and .data sections.
+Patching in the new function will end up also patching in the new .rodata
+section and the new function will reference the new string in the new
+.rodata section.
+
+This is implemented in the Xen Project hypervisor.
+
+### Security
+
+Only the privileged domain should be allowed to do this operation.
+
+
+# Not Yet Done
+
+This is for further development of xSplice.
+
+## TODO Goals
+
+The implementation must also have a mechanism for (in no particular order):
+
+ * Be able to lookup in the Xen hypervisor the symbol names of functions from the ELF payload.
+ * Be able to patch .rodata, .bss, and .data sections.
+ * Deal with NMI/MCE checks during patching instead of ignoring them.
+ * Further safety checks (blacklist of which functions cannot be patched, check
+   the stack, make sure the payload is built with same compiler as hypervisor).
+   Specifically we want to make sure that xSplice codepaths cannot be patched.
+ * NOP out the code sequence if `new_size` is zero.
+ * Deal with other relocation types:  R_X86_64_[8,16,32,32S], R_X86_64_PC[8,16,64] in payload file.
+ * An dependency mechanism for the payloads. To use that information to load:
+    - The appropiate payload. To verify that payload is built against the
+      hypervisor. This can be done via the `build-id`
+      or via providing an copy of the old code - so that the hypervisor can
+       verify it against the code in memory.
+    - To construct an appropiate order of payloads to load in case they
+      depend on each other.
+
+### Handle inlined __LINE__
+
+This problem is related to hotpatch construction
+and potentially has influence on the design of the hotpatching
+infrastructure in Xen.
+
+For example:
+
+We have file1.c with functions f1 and f2 (in that order).  f2 contains a
+BUG() (or WARN()) macro and at that point embeds the source line number
+into the generated code for f2.
+
+Now we want to hotpatch f1 and the hotpatch source-code patch adds 2
+lines to f1 and as a consequence shifts out f2 by two lines.  The newly
+constructed file1.o will now contain differences in both binary
+functions f1 (because we actually changed it with the applied patch) and
+f2 (because the contained BUG macro embeds the new line number).
+
+Without additional information, an algorithm comparing file1.o before
+and after hotpatch application will determine both functions to be
+changed and will have to include both into the binary hotpatch.
+
+Options:
+
+1. Transform source code patches for hotpatches to be line-neutral for
+   each chunk.  This can be done in almost all cases with either
+   reformatting of the source code or by introducing artificial
+   preprocessor "#line n" directives to adjust for the introduced
+   differences.
+
+   This approach is low-tech and simple.  Potentially generated
+   backtraces and existing debug information refers to the original
+   build and does not reflect hotpatching state except for actually
+   hotpatched functions but should be mostly correct.
+
+2. Ignoring the problem and living with artificially large hotpatches
+   that unnecessarily patch many functions.
+
+   This approach might lead to some very large hotpatches depending on
+   content of specific source file.  It may also trigger pulling in
+   functions into the hotpatch that cannot reasonable be hotpatched due
+   to limitations of a hotpatching framework (init-sections, parts of
+   the hotpatching framework itself, ...) and may thereby prevent us
+   from patching a specific problem.
+
+   The decision between 1. and 2. can be made on a patch--by-patch
+   basis.
+
+3. Introducing an indirection table for storing line numbers and
+   treating that specially for binary diffing. Linux may follow
+   this approach.
+
+   We might either use this indirection table for runtime use and patch
+   that with each hotpatch (similarly to exception tables) or we might
+   purely use it when building hotpatches to ignore functions that only
+   differ at exactly the location where a line-number is embedded.
+
+For BUG(), WARN(), etc., the line number is embedded into the bug frame, not
+the function itself.
+
+Similar considerations are true to a lesser extent for __FILE__, but it
+could be argued that file renaming should be done outside of hotpatches.
+
+### xSplice interdependencies
+
+xSplice patches interdependencies are tricky.
+
+There are the ways this can be addressed:
+ * A single large patch that subsumes and replaces all previous ones.
+   Over the life-time of patching the hypervisor this large patch
+   grows to accumulate all the code changes.
+ * Hotpatch stack - where an mechanism exists that loads the hotpatches
+   in the same order they were built in. We would need an build-id
+   of the hypevisor to make sure the hot-patches are build against the
+   correct build.
+ * Payload containing the old code to check against that. That allows
+   the hotpatches to be loaded indepedently (if they don't overlap) - or
+   if the old code also containst previously patched code - even if they
+   overlap.
+
+The disadvantage of the first large patch is that it can grow over
+time and not provide an bisection mechanism to identify faulty patches.
+
+The hot-patch stack puts stricts requirements on the order of the patches
+being loaded and requires an hypervisor build-id to match against.
+
+The old code allows much more flexibility and an additional guard,
+but is more complex to implement.
+
+## Signature checking requirements.
+
+The signature checking requires that the layout of the data in memory
+**MUST** be same for signature to be verified. This means that the payload
+data layout in ELF format **MUST** match what the hypervisor would be
+expecting such that it can properly do signature verification.
+
+The signature is based on the all of the payloads continuously laid out
+in memory. The signature is to be appended at the end of the ELF payload
+prefixed with the string '~Module signature appended~\n', followed by
+an signature header then followed by the signature, key identifier, and signers
+name.
+
+Specifically the signature header would be:
+
+<pre>
+#define PKEY_ALGO_DSA       0  
+#define PKEY_ALGO_RSA       1  
+
+#define PKEY_ID_PGP         0 /* OpenPGP generated key ID */  
+#define PKEY_ID_X509        1 /* X.509 arbitrary subjectKeyIdentifier */  
+
+#define HASH_ALGO_MD4          0  
+#define HASH_ALGO_MD5          1  
+#define HASH_ALGO_SHA1         2  
+#define HASH_ALGO_RIPE_MD_160  3  
+#define HASH_ALGO_SHA256       4  
+#define HASH_ALGO_SHA384       5  
+#define HASH_ALGO_SHA512       6  
+#define HASH_ALGO_SHA224       7

+#define HASH_ALGO_WP_512      13  
+#define HASH_ALGO_TGR_128     14  
+#define HASH_ALGO_TGR_160     15  
+#define HASH_ALGO_TGR_192     16  
+
+
+struct elf_payload_signature {  
+	u8	algo;		/* Public-key crypto algorithm PKEY_ALGO_*. */  
+	u8	hash;		/* Digest algorithm: HASH_ALGO_*. */  
+	u8	id_type;	/* Key identifier type PKEY_ID*. */  
+	u8	signer_len;	/* Length of signer's name */  
+	u8	key_id_len;	/* Length of key identifier */  
+	u8	__pad[3];  
+	__be32	sig_len;	/* Length of signature data */  
+};
+
+</pre>
+(Note that this has been borrowed from Linux module signature code.).
+
+
+### .bss and .data sections.
+
+In place patching writable data is not suitable as it is unclear what should be done
+depending on the current state of data. As such it should not be attempted.
+
+That said we should provide hook functions so that the existing data
+can be changed during payload application.
+
+
+### Inline patching
+
+The hypervisor should verify that the in-place patching would fit within
+the code or data.
+
+### Trampoline (e9 opcode)
+
+The e9 opcode used for jmpq uses a 32-bit signed displacement. That means
+we are limited to up to 2GB of virtual address to place the new code
+from the old code. That should not be a problem since Xen hypervisor has
+a very small footprint.
+
+However if we need - we can always add two trampolines. One at the 2GB
+limit that calls the next trampoline.
+
+Please note there is a small limitation for trampolines in
+function entries: The target function (+ trailing padding) must be able
+to accomodate the trampoline. On x86 with +-2 GB relative jumps,
+this means 5 bytes are required.
+
+Depending on compiler settings, there are several functions in Xen that
+are smaller (without inter-function padding).
+
+<pre> 
+readelf -sW xen-syms | grep " FUNC " | \
+    awk '{ if ($3 < 5) print $3, $4, $5, $8 }'
+
+...
+3 FUNC LOCAL wbinvd_ipi
+3 FUNC LOCAL shadow_l1_index
+...
+</pre>
+A compile-time check for, e.g., a minimum alignment of functions or a
+runtime check that verifies symbol size (+ padding to next symbols) for
+that in the hypervisor is advised.
+
+The tool for generating payloads currently does perform a compile-time
+check to ensure that the function to be replaced is large enough.

The implementation does not actually do any patching.

It just adds the framework for doing the hypercalls,
keeping track of ELF payloads, and the basic operations:
 - query which payloads exist,
 - query for specific payloads,
 - check*1, apply*1, replace*1, and unload payloads.

*1: Which of course in this patch are nops.

The functionality is disabled on ARM until all arch
components are implemented.

Also by default it is disabled until the implementation
is in place.

We also use recursive spinlocks to so that the find_payload
function does not need to have a 'lock' and 'non-lock' variant.

v2: Rebased on keyhandler: rework keyhandler infrastructure
v3: Fixed XSM.
 - Removed REVERTED state.
    Split status and error code.
    Add REPLACE action.
    Separate payload data from the payload structure.
    s/XSPLICE_ID_../XSPLICE_NAME_../
 - Add xsplice and CONFIG_XSPLICE build toption.
    Fix code per Jan's review.
    Update the sysctl.h (change bits to enum like)
 - Rebase on Kconfig changes.
 - Add missing pad checks. Re-order keyhandler.h to build on ARM.
 - Rebase on build: hook the schedulers into Kconfig
 - s/id/name/; s/payload_list_lock/payload_lock/
 - Put #ifdef CONFIG_XSPLICE in header file per Doug review.
 - Andrew review:
    - use recursive spinlocks, change name to xsplice_op,
      sprinkle new-lines, add local variable block, include
      state diagram, squash two goto labels, use vzalloc instead of
      alloc_xenheap_pages.
    - change 'state' from int32 to uint32_t
    - remove the err label out of xsplice_upload
    - use void* instaed of uint8_t
    - move code around to make it easier to read.
    - Add vmap.h to compiler under ARM.
 - Add missing Copyright in header file
 - Dropped LOADED state, make the payload go in CHECKED.
v4: Made it only work on x86 per Julien's (ARM) maintainer request.
v5: Dropped the load->check state example in sysctl.h
    Made the ->nr=0 call work. Remove rc=0 in lots of cases. Update
    header from design doc.
v6: Update what 'idx' means. Don't drop lock in find_payload. Make
    find_name copy data.
v7: Don't print -EINVAL when payload_cnt is zero (and toolstack provides
    idx as zero). Change return code to -ENOSYS, so change callback setting
    based on -ENOSYS and -EOPNOTSUPP.
    Add extra printk in keyhandler.
    Use if (..) else in  xsplice_upload instead of two 'if'.
    Remove #ifdef in XSM machinery.
    Add Andrew's Reviewed-by.
    Rebase on x86/cpu: Sysctl and common infrastructure for levelling context switching
    and xen+tools: Export maximum host and guest cpu featuresets via SYSCTL

The underlaying toolstack code to do the basic
operations when using the XEN_XSPLICE_op syscalls:
 - upload the payload,
 - get status of an payload,
 - list all the payloads,
 - apply, check, replace, and revert the payload.

v2: Actually set zero for the _pad entries.
v3: Split status into state and error code.
    Add REPLACE action.
 - Use timeout and utilize pads.
 - Update per Wei's review.
 - Extra space slipped in, remove it
v4: Add Wei's review, update comment and Ack.
v7: Sprinkle errno=-EINVAL on all the 'if (!len)', etc checks.
    Added Reviewed-by from Andrew.

A simple tool that allows an system admin to perform
basic xsplice operations:

 - Upload a xsplice file (with an unique name)
 - List all the xsplice payloads loaded.
 - Apply, revert, replace, or unload the payload using the
   unique name.
 - Do all two - upload, and apply the payload in one go (load).
   Also will use the name of the file as the <name>

v2:
 - Removed REVERTED state.
 - Fixed bugs handling XSPLICE_STATUS_PROGRESS.
 - Split status into state and error.
   Add REPLACE action.
v3:
 - Utilize the timeout and use the default one (let the hypervisor
   pick it).
 - Change the s/all/load and infer the <id> from name of file.
 - s/id/name/
 - Don't use hypercall buffer in upload_func, instead do it in libxc
 - Remove the debug printk.
 - Remove goto's (per Wei's review)
 - Use fprintf(stderr in error paths.
 - Add local variable block.
 - Syntax, expand comment, and don't overwrite rc if xc_xsplice_upload failed.
v4:
 - Remove LOADED state. Only have CHECKED state.

During execution of the hypervisor we have two regions of
executable code - stext -> _etext, and _sinittext -> _einitext.

The later is not needed after bootup.

We also have various built-in macros and functions to search
in between those two swaths depending on the state of the system.

That is either for bug_frames, exceptions (x86) or symbol
names for the instruction.

With xSplice in the picture - we need a mechanism for new payloads
to searched as well for all of this.

Originally we had extra 'if (xsplice)...' but that gets
a bit tiring and does not hook up nicely.

This 'struct virtual_region' and virtual_region_list provide a
mechanism to search for the bug_frames, exception table,
and symbol names entries without having various calls in
other sub-components in the system.

Code which wishes to participate in bug_frames and exception table
entries search has to only use two public APIs:
 - register_virtual_region
 - unregister_virtual_region

to let the core code know.

If the ->lookup_symbol is not then the default internal symbol lookup
mechanism is used.

v4: New patch.
v5:
 - Rename to virtual_region.
 - Ditch the 'skip' function.
 - Remove the _stext.
 - Use RCU lists.
 - Add a search function.
 - Remove extern, add rcu_read_lock. remove __ from name.
v6: s/search_for_text/find_text_region/.
 - Drop the uaccess.h need. Make setup_virtual_regions accept two parameters.
   Remove #ifdef.
 - Constify struct exception_table_entry.
 - Remove some newlines.
 - Change header file guard #define to proper name.

For those users who want to use the virtual addresses that
are in the hypervisor's code/data/ region address space -
these three new functions allow that.

Implementation wise the vmap API keeps track of two virtual
address regions now:
 a) VMAP_VIRT_START
 b) Any provided virtual address space (need start and end).

The a) one is the default one and the existing behavior
for users of vmalloc, vmap, etc is the same.

If however one wishes to use the b) one only has to use
the vm_init_type to initialize and the vmalloc_type to utilize it.

This allows users (such as xSplice) to provide their own
mechanism to change the the page flags, and also use virtual
addresses closer to the hypervisor virtual addresses (at least
on x86) while not having to deal with the allocation of
pages.

For example of users, see patch titled "xsplice: Implement payload
loading", where we parse the payload's ELF relocations - which
is defined to be signed 32-bit (so max displacement is 2GB virtual
spacE). The displacement of the hypervisor virtual addresses to the
vmalloc (on x86) is more than 32-bits - which means that ELF relocations
would truncate the 34 and 33th bit. Hence this alternate API.

We also add add extra checks in case the b) range has not been initialized.

v4: New patch.
v5: Update per Jan's comments.
v6: Drop the stray parentheses on typedefs.
    Ditch the vunmap callback. Stash away the virtual addresses in lists.
    Ditch the vmap callback. Just provide virtual address.
    Ditch the vmalloc_range. Require users of alternative virtual address
    to call vmap_init_type first.
v7: Don't expose the vmalloc_type and such. Instead provide an wrapper
    called vmalloc_xen for those.
    Rename the enum, change one of the names.
    Moved the vunmap_type around in c file so we don't have to declare
    it in the header.

  Cc: George Dunlap, Jan Beulich, Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk

From: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

To simply change the permissions on existing Xen mappings.  The existing
destroy_xen_mappings() is altered to support a change the PTE permissions.

A new destroy_xen_mappings() is introduced, as the special case of not passing
_PAGE_PRESENT to modify_xen_mappings().

As cleanup (and an ideal functional test), the boot logic which remaps Xen's
code and data with reduced permissions is altered to use
modify_xen_mappings(), rather than map_pages_to_xen() passing the same mfn's
back in.

v7: New
v8:
 * Allow callers to pass PAGE_HYPERVISOR_xxx constants, for consistently with
   similar functions.
 * Replace one opencoded 0 with its logical equivalent, _PAGE_NONE.
 * Add check for creating new mappings of 4K entries.
 * Correct the continue logic.  Invert the sense of the comment to match the
   code.
 * Added Reviewed-by George and Jan. Fix missing "are" in comment.

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Add Elf routines and data structures in preparation for loading an
xSplice payload.

We make an assumption that the max number of sections an ELF payload
can have is 64. We can in future make this be dependent on the
names of the sections and verifying against a list, but for right now
this suffices.

Also we a whole lot of checks to make sure that the ELF payload
file is not corrupted nor that the offsets point past the file.

For most of the checks we print an message if the hypervisor is built
with debug enabled.

v2: - With the #define ELFSIZE in the ARM file we can use the common
     #defines instead of using #ifdef CONFIG_ARM_32. Moved to another
    patch.
    - Add checks for ELF file.
    - Add name to be printed.
    - Add len for easier ELF checks.
    - Expand on the checks. Add macro.
v3: Remove the return_ macro
  - Add return_ macro back but make it depend on debug=y
  - Per Andrew review: add local variable. Fix memory leak in
    elf_resolve_sections, Remove macro and use dprintk. Fix alignment.
    Use void* instead of uint8_t to handle raw payload.
v4 - Fix memory leak in elf_get_sym
  - Add XSPLICE to printk/dprintk
v5: Sprinkle newlines.
v6: Squash the ELF header checks from 'xsplice: Implement payload loading' here,
    Do better job at checking string sections and the users of them (sh_size),
    Use XSPLICE as a string literal,
    Move some checks outside the loop,
    Make sure that SHT_STRTAB are really what they say
    Sprinkle consts.
v7:
    Check sh_entsize and sh_offset.
    Added Andrew's Reviewed-by and Ian's Acked-by
    Redo check on sh_entsize to not be !=
v8: Make all the dprintk(XENLOG_DEBUG be XENLOG_ERR

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Add support for loading xsplice payloads. This is somewhat similar to
the Linux kernel module loader, implementing the following steps:
- Verify the elf file.
- Parse the elf file.
- Allocate a region of memory mapped within a free area of
  [xen_virt_end, XEN_VIRT_END].
- Copy allocated sections into the new region. Split them in three
  regions - .text, .data, and .rodata. MUST have at least .text.
- Resolve section symbols. All other symbols must be absolute addresses.
  (Note that patch titled "xsplice,symbols: Implement symbol name resolution
   on address" implements that)
- Perform relocations.
- Secure the the regions (.text,.data,.rodata) with proper permissions.

We capitalize on the vmalloc callback API (see patch titled:
"rm/x86/vmap: Add vmalloc_xen, vfree_xen and vm_init_type") to allocate
a region of memory within the [xen_virt_end, XEN_VIRT_END] for the code.

We also use the "x86/mm: Introduce modify_xen_mappings()"
to change the virtual address page-table permissions.

v2: - Change the 'xsplice_patch_func' structure layout/size.
    - Add more error checking. Fix memory leak.
    - Move elf_resolve and elf_perform relocs in elf file.
    - Print the payload address and pages in keyhandler.
v3:
    - Make it build under ARM
    - Build it without using the return_ macro.
    - Add fixes from Ross.
    - Add the _return macro back - but only use it during debug builds.
    - Remove the macro, prefix arch_ on arch specific calls.
v4:
    - Move alloc_payload to arch specific file.
    - Use void* instead of uint8_t, use const
    - Add copyrights
    - Unroll the vmap code to add ASSERT. Change while to not incur
      potential long error loop
   - Use vmalloc/vfree cb APIs
   - Secure .text pages to be RX instead of RWX.
v5:
  - Fix allocation of virtual addresses only allowing one page to be allocated.
  - Create .text, .data, and .rodata regions with different permissions.
  - Make the find_space_t not a typedef to pointer to a function.
  - Allocate memory in here.
v6: Drop parentheses on typedefs.
  - s/an xSplice/a xSplice/
  - Rebase on "vmap: Add vmalloc_cb"
  - Rebase on "vmap: Add vmalloc_type and vm_init_type"
  - s/uint8_t/void/ on load_addr
  - Set xsplice_elf on stack without using memset.
v7:
  - Changed the check on delta = elf->hdr->e_shoff + elf->hdr->e_shnum * elf->hdr->e_shentsize;
    The sections can be right at the back of the file (different linker!), so the failing conditional
    for 'if (delta >= elf->len)' is incorrect and should have been '>'.
  - Changed dprintk(XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR, then back to DEBUG. Converted
    some of the printk to dprintk.
  - Rebase on " arm/x86/vmap: Add vmalloc_xen, vfree_xen and vm_init_type"
  - Changed some of the printk XENLOG_ERR to XENLOG_DEBUG
  - Check the idx in the relocation to make sure it is within bounds and
    implemented.
  - Use "x86/mm: Introduce modify_xen_mappings()"
  - Introduce PRIxElfAddr
  - Check for overflow in R_X86_64_PC32
  - Return -EOPNOTSUPP if we don't support types in ELF64_R_TYPE
v8:
  - Change dprintk and printk XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR
  - Convert four of the printks in dprintk.

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Implement support for the apply, revert and replace actions.

To perform and action on a payload, the hypercall sets up a data
structure to schedule the work.  A hook is added in the reset_stack_and_jump
to check for work and execute it if needed (specifically we check an
per-cpu flag to make this as quick as possible).

In this way, patches can be applied with all CPUs idle and without
stacks.  The first CPU to run check_for_xsplice_work() becomes the
master and triggers a reschedule softirq to trigger all the other CPUs
to enter check_for_xsplice_work() with no stack.  Once all CPUs
have rendezvoused, all CPUs disable IRQs and NMIs are ignored.
The system is then quiscient and the master performs the action.
After this, all CPUs enable IRQs and NMIs are re-enabled.

Note that it is unsafe to patch do_nmi and the xSplice internal functions.
Patching functions on NMI/MCE path is liable to end in disaster.
This is not addressed in this patch and is mentioned in the
design doc as a further TODO.

The action to perform is one of:
- APPLY: For each function in the module, store the first 5 bytes of the
  old function and replace it with a jump to the new function.
- REVERT: Copy the previously stored bytes into the first 5 bytes of the
  old function.
- REPLACE: Revert each applied module and then apply the new module.

To prevent a deadlock with any other barrier in the system, the master
will wait for up to 30ms before timing out.
Measurements found that the patch application to take about 100 μs on a
72 CPU system, whether idle or fully loaded.

We also add an BUILD_ON to make sure that the size of the structure
of the payload is not inadvertly changed and that the offsets are
correct on both 32 and 64-bit hypervisor (ARM32 and ARM64).
To make this work, we make the public header use architecture
neutral members (xen_ulong_t) but for per-architecture have to
fiddle with padding.

v2: - Pluck the 'struct xsplice_patch_func' in this patch.
    - Modify code per review comments.
    - Add more data in the keyboard handler.
    - Redo the patching code, split it in functions.
v3: - Add return_ macro for debug builds.
    - Move s/payload_list_lock/payload_list/ to earlier patch
    - Remove const and use ELF types for xsplice_patch_func
     - Add check routine to do simple sanity checks for various
      sections.
    - s/%p/PRIx64/ as ARM builds complain.
    - Move code around. Add more dprintk. Add XSPLICE in front of all
      printks/dprintk.
      Put the NMIs back if we fail patching.
      Add per-cpu to lessen contention for global structure.
      Extract from xsplice_do_single patching code into xsplice_do_action
      Squash xsplice_do_single and check_for_xsplice_work together to
      have all rendezvous in one place.
      Made XSPLICE_ACTION_REPLACE work again (wrong list iterator)
      s/find_special_sections/prepare_payload/
      Use list_del_init and INIT_LIST_HEAD for applied_list
v4:
   - Add comment, adjust spacing for "Timed out on CPU semaphore"
   - Added CR0.WP manipulations when altering the .text of hypervisor.
   - Added fix from Andrew for CR0.WP manipulation.
v5: - Made xsplice_patch_func use uintXX_t instead of ELF_ types to easy
      making it work under ARM (32bit). Add more BUILD-BUG-ON checks.
    - Add more BUILD_ON checks. Sprinkle newlines.
v6: Rebase on "arm/x86: Alter nmi_callback_t typedef"
   - Drop the recursive spinlock usage.
   - Move NMI callbacks in arch specific.
   - Fold the 'check_for_xsplice_work' in reset_stack_and_jump
   - Add arch specific check for .xsplice.funcs.
   - Seperate external and internal structure of .xsplice.funcs.
   - Changed per Jan's review
   - Modified the .xsplice.funcs checks
v7:
   - Modified old_ptr to void* instead of uint8_t*
   - Modified the xsplice_patch_func_internal for ARM32 to have padding.
   - Used #if BITS_PER_LONG == 64 for the xsplice_patch_func_internal along
     with ifndef CONFIG_ARM for the undo (which may be different size on ARM64)
v8:
  - Add "is empty" if special sections are in fact empty.
  - Added Andrew's Reviewed-by:
  - Rebase on v7.2 of  x86/mm: Introduce modify_xen_mappings()
  - Change some of printk to dprintk and some of the dprintk to printk.
  - Make the xsplice_patch_func (and the internal) structure have uint32_t
    (instead of uint64_t) if BITS_PER_LONG==32. This makes the size and
    offset different so note that in the design and common code.
  - Add #undef ACTION
  - Guard struct xsplice_patch_func in sysctl.h with __XEN__ as toolstacks
    will fail to compile. We do have BITS_PER_LONG defined in xc_bitops.h but
    that will go away (and also that macro uses sizeof and the pre-processor
    will choke on that).
  - Dropped Julien's Acked as I replaced BITS_PER_LONG/CONFIG_ARM_32.
    (Stefano is OK with it, but would prefer BITS_PER_LONG, Jan does not want
    BITS_PER_LONG).

This change demonstrates how to generate an xSplice ELF payload.

The idea here is that we want to patch in the hypervisor
the 'xen_version_extra' function with an function that will
return 'Hello World'. The 'xl info | grep extraversion'
will reflect the new value after the patching.

To generate this ELF payload file we need:
 - C code of the new code (xen_hello_world_func.c).
 - C code generating the .xsplice.funcs structure
   (xen_hello_world.c)
 - The address of the old code (xen_extra_version). We
   retrieve it by  using 'nm --defined' on xen-syms.
 - The size of the new and old code for which we use
   nm --defined -S on our code and xen-syms respectively.

There are two C files and one header files generated
during build. One could make this one C file if the
size of the newly patched function size was known in
advance (or an random value was choosen).

There is also a strict order of compiling:
 1) xen_hello_world_func.c
 2) config.h - extract the size of the new function,
    the old function and the old function address.
 3) xen_hello_world.c - which contains the .xsplice.funcs
    structure.
 4) Link the object files in an xen_hello_world.xsplice file.

The use-case is simple:

$xen-xsplice load /usr/lib/debug/xen_hello_world.xsplice
$xen-xsplice list
 ID                                     | status
----------------------------------------+------------
xen_hello_world                           APPLIED
$xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : Hello World
$xen-xsplice revert xen_hello_world
Performing revert: completed
$xen-xsplice unload xen_hello_world
Performing unload: completed
$xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : -unstable

v2: Do it using hypervisor Makefiles
v3: Remove the stale linker file.
    Add Copyright and local definition block
    s/name/xen_hello_world_name/
v6: Remove the 'install', and 'uninstall' destinations.
    Remove xen/config.h from files.
v7: Made the build target be called 'tests'.
    Changed the .name to have 'xen_extra_version' to be consistent

  Cc: Keir Fraser, Jan Beulich, Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

If in the payload we do not have the old_addr we can resolve
the virtual address based on the UNDEFined symbols.

We also use an boolean flag: new_symbol to track symbols. The usual
case this is used is by:

* A payload may introduce a new symbol
* A payload may override an existing symbol (introduced in Xen or another
  payload)
* Overriding symbols must exist in the symtab for backtraces.
* A payload must always link against the object which defines the new symbol.

Considering that payloads may be loaded in any order it would be incorrect to
link against a payload which simply overrides a symbol because you could end
up with a chain of jumps which is inefficient and may result in the expected
function not being executed.

Also we include a local definition block in the symbols.c file.

v1: Ross original version.
v2: Include test-case and document update.
v2: s/size_t/ssize_t/
    Include core_text_size, core_text calculation
v4: Cast on dprintk to uint64_t to make ELF 32bit build.
v6: Rebase where the spinlock is no more recursive. Drop the spinlock
    usage in xsplice_symbols_lookup_by_name
v7: Add Andrew's Reviewed-by
    Initialize addr and symname to zero as xensyms_read uses it.
v8: Change one XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR.
    Change printk to dprintk on symbols and one error case.

The current mechanism is geared towards fast virtual address ->
symbol names lookup. This is fine for the normal use cases
(BUG_ON, WARN_ON, etc), but for xSplice - where we need to find
hypervisor symbols - it is slow.

To understand this patch, a description of the existing
method is explained first. For folks familar go to 'NEW CODE:'.

HOW IT WORKS:

The symbol table lookup mechanism uses a simple encoding mechanism
where it extracts the common ascii characters that the symbol's use.

This saves us space. The lookup mechanism is geared towards looking
up symbols based on address. We have one 0..N (where N is
the number of symbols, so 6849 for example) table:

symbols_addresses[0..N]

And an 1-1 (in a loose fashion) of the symbols (encoded) in a
symbols_names stream of size N.

The N is variable (later on that below)

The symbols_names are sorted based on symbols_addresses, which
means that the decoded entries inside symbols_names are not in
ascending or descending order.

There is also the encoding mechanism - the table of 255 entries
called symbols_token_index[]. And the symbols_token_table which
is an stream of ASCIIZ characters, such as (it really
is not a table as the values are variable):

@0   .asciz  "credit"
@6   .asciz  "mask"
..
@300 .asciz  "S"

And the symbols_token_index:
@0        .short  0
@1        .short  7
@2        .short  12
@4        .short  16
...
@84         .short  300

The relationship between them is that the symbols_token_index
gives us the offset to symbols_token_table.

The symbol_names[] array is a stream of encoded values. Each value
follows the same pattern - <len> followed by <encoding values>.
And the another <len> followed by <encoding values>.

Hence to find the right one you need to read <len>, add <len>
(to skip over), read <len>, add <len>, and so on until one
finds the right tuple offset.

The <encoding values> are the indicies into the symbols_token_index.

Meaning if you have:
  0x04, 0x54, 0xda, 0xe2, 0x74
  [4, 84, 218, 226, 116 in human numbering]

The 0x04 tells us that the symbol is four bytes past this one (so next
symbol offset starts at 5). If we lookup symbols_token_index[84] we get 300.
symbols_token[300] gets us the "S". And so on, the string eventually
end up being decode to be 'S_stext'. The first character is the type,
then optionally follwed by the filename (and # right after filename)
and then lastly the symbol, such as:

tvpmu_intel.c#core2_vpmu_do_interrupt

Keep in mind that there are two fixed sized tables:
symbols_addresses[0..symbols_num_syms], and
symbols_markers[0..symbols_num_syms/255].

The symbols_markers is used to speed searching for the right address.
It gives us the offsets within symbol_names that start at the <len><encoded value>.

The way to find a symbol based on the address is:
1) Figure out the 'tuple offset' from symbols_address[0..symbols_num_syms].
   This table is sorted by virtual addresses so finding the value is simple.
2) Get starting offset of symbol_names by retrieving value of
   symbol_markers['tuple offset' / 255].
3). Iterate up to 'tuple_offset & 255' in symbols_markers stream starting
   at 'offset'.
4). Decode the <len><encoded value>

This however does not work very well if we want to search the other
way - we have the symbol name and want to find the address.

NEW CODE:

To make that work we add three tables:
1) symbols_addresses_index_sorted[0..symbols_num_syms]. The values are
 indicies into symbols_addresses array. This is a 1-1 table:

 symbols_addresses_index_sorted:
     .long   6315
     .long   6097

 To get the address of a symbol at offset 0 in symbols_name_sorted
 (see below) we look in symbols_addresses_index_sorted[0] to get
 6315 and then look in symbols_addresses_index[6315] to find it.

2) The symbols_names_sorted stream - same format as symbols_names but
 constructued by sorting the <type>[filename#]<symbol> by <symbol>,
 then [filename#] and lastly type. Recall that symbol_names is sorted
 based on addresses of the symbols.

3) To make it simpler to search we also add an symbols_markers_sorted
 array (of size symbols_num_syms/255).

Searching for symbols is simplified as we can do a binary search
on symbol_names_sorted (and using symbols_markers_sorted). Since the
symbols are sorted it takes on average 13 calls to symbols_expand_symbol.

Doing small tests (search for five different symbols) using the old
and new mechanism show 2ms vs 0ms improvement.

 - Remove the debug code
 - Return the 'mid' index in symbol_addresses, not the 'low'.

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Naturally the backtrace is presented when an instruction
hits an bug_frame or %p is used.

The payloads do not support bug_frames yet - however the functions
the payloads call could hit an BUG() or WARN().

The traps.c has logic to scan for it this - and eventually it will
find the correct bug_frame and the walk the stack using %p to print
the backtrace. For %p and symbols to print a string -  the
'is_active_kernel_text' is consulted which uses an 'struct virtual_region'.

Therefore we register our start->end addresses so that
'is_active_kernel_text' will include our payload address.

We also register our symbol lookup table function so that it can
scan the list of payloads and retrieve the correct name.

Lastly we change vsprintf to take into account s and namebuf.
For core code they are the same, but for payloads they are different.
This gets us:

Xen call trace:
   [<ffff82d080a00041>] revert_hook+0x31/0x35 [xen_hello_world]
   [<ffff82d0801431bd>] xsplice.c#revert_payload+0x86/0xc6
   [<ffff82d080143502>] check_for_xsplice_work+0x233/0x3cd
   [<ffff82d08017a0b2>] domain.c#continue_idle_domain+0x9/0x1f

Which is great if payloads have similar or same symbol names.

v2: Add missing full stop.
v3: s/module/payload/
v4: Expand comment and include registration of 'virtual_region'
    Redo the vsprintf handling of payload name.
    Drop the ->skip function
v6: Add comment explaining the purpose behind the strcmp.
    Redid per Jan's review.
v7: Add Andrew's Review-by
    Drop the strcmp and just do pointer checks.

Add support for handling bug frames contained with xsplice modules. If a
trap occurs search either the kernel bug table or an applied payload's
bug table depending on the instruction pointer.

v2:- s/module/payload/
   - add build time check in case amount of bug frames expands.
   - add define for the number of bug-frames.
v3:
  - add missing BUGFRAME_NR, squash s/core_size/core/ in earlier patch.
  - Moved code around.
  - Changed per Andrew's recommendation.
  - Fixed style changes.
  - Made it compile under ARM (PRIu32,PRIu64)
v4: Use 'struct virtual_region'
  - Rip more of the is_active_text code.
  - Use one function for the ->skip
  - Include test-case
v5: Rip out the ->skip function.
v7: Add a text check as well.
    Add Andrew's Reviewed-by.
v8: Changed dprintk XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Add support for exception tables contained within xSplice payloads. If an
exception occurs search either the main exception table or a particular
active payload's exception table depending on the instruction pointer.

Also we add an test-case to make sure we have an exception that
is handled.

To not grow the code-base if xSplice is not compiled in we add
certain #define to help in determining if code needs to be __init
or not.

v3:
 - s/module/payload/
 - sanity checks.
 - Move code around.
 - s/module/payload/
v4: Use 'struct virtual_region'
v5:
  - Expand test-case.
  - Deal with struct exception_table_entry being const.
v6:
 - Make the code have __init if not compiled with xSplice
 - Remove not needed declarations.
v7:
 - Make the non_canonical_addr be 0xdead000000000000ULL
 - Remove casts
 - Add Reviewed-by from Andrew
 - Change ifdef to be !ARM
v8:
 - Change dprintk XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR on dprintk.

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

Add support for applying alternative sections within xsplice payload.
At payload load time, apply an alternative sections that are found.

Also we add an test-case exercising a rather useless alternative
(patching a NOP with a NOP) - but it does exercise the code-path.

v2: Make a new alternative function that does not ASSERT on IRQs and
    don't disable IRQs in the code when loading payload.
v4: Include test-case
    Include check for size of alternatives and that it is not a 0 size
    section.
v6: Add #define INIT to preserve __initness on alternative code.
    Double check that alt_instr are only patching payload code.
v7: Move cr0 manipulation in apply_alternatives.
    ifdef around alternative.o in Makefile
    Pick X86_FEATURE_LM in test-case
    Drop casting from load_addr
    It is alternative.init.o, not alternative_init.o (thanks Andrew!)
v8: Change XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR on dprintk.

This patch enables the Elf to be built with the build-id
and provide in the Xen hypervisor the code to extract it.

The man-page for ld --build-id says it is:

"Request the creation of a ".note.gnu.build-id" ELF note
section or a ".build-id" COFF section.  The contents of the
note are unique bits identifying this linked file. style can be
"uuid" to use 128 random bits, "sha1" to use a 160-bit SHA1 hash
on the normative parts of the output contents, ..."

One can also retrieve the value of the build-id by doing
'readelf -n xen-syms'.

For EFI builds we re-use the same build-id that the xen-syms
was built with.

The version of ld that first implemented --build-id is v2.18.
We check for to see if the linker supports the --build-id
parameter and if so use it.

For x86 we have two binaries - the xen-syms and the xen - an
smaller version with lots of sections removed. To make it possible
for readelf -n xen we also modify mkelf32 and xen.lds.S to include
the PT_NOTE ELF section.

The EFI binary is more complicated. We only build one type of
binary and expanding the amount of sections the EFI binary has to
include an .note one is pointless - as there is no concept of
PT_NOTE. The best we can do is move this .note in the .rodata section.

Further development wise should move it to .buildid section
so that DataDirectory debug data nor CodeView can view it.
(The author has no clue what those are).

Note that in earlier patches the linker script had:

 __note_gnu_build_id_start = .;
 *(.rodata.note.gnu.build-id)
 __note_gnu_build_id_end = .;
 *(.note)
 *(.note.*)

Which meant you could have different ELF notes _outside_ the
__note_gnu_build_id_end. However for EFI builds we take the whole
.note* section and jam it in the EFI to be between
__note_gnu_build_id_start and __note_gnu_build_id_end.
To not make this happend we make on the ELF build the section
be called .note.gnu.build-id  (instead of just .note).
If there is a need for a different type of note other folks
can add it as a different section name.

Note that we do call --binary-id=sha1 on all linker invocations.
We have to do to enforce that the symbol offsets don't changes
(the side effect is that we we would have multiple binary ids -
except that the last one is the final one).

Without this working the symbol table embedded in Xen ends
up incorrect - some of the values it contains would be offset by the
size of the included build id.

This obviously causes problems when resolving symbols.

We also define the NT_GNU_BUILD_ID in the elfstructs.h as we
need to use it in various places.

v1: Rebase it on Martin's initial patch
v2: Move it to XENVER hypercall
v3: Fix EFI building (Ross's fix)
    Don't use the third argument for length.
    Use new structure for XENVER_build_id with variable buf.
    Include Ross's fix.
    Include detection of bin-utils for build-id support, add
    probing for size, and return -EPERM for XSM denied calls.
    Build xen_build_id under ARM, required adding ELFSIZE in proper file.
    Rebase on top XSM version class.
v4:
    Include the build-id .note in the xen ELF binary.
    s/build_id/build_id_linker/
    For EFI build, moved the --build-id values in .data section
    Rebase on staging.
    Split patch in two. Always do --build-id call. Include the .note in
    .rodata. USe const void * and ssize_t
    Use -S to make build_id.o and objcopy differently (Andrew suggested)
v5: Put back the #ifdef LOCK_PROFILE on ARM. (Bad change). Move the _erodata
    around. s/ssize_t/unsigned int/
v6: Redid it per Jan's review.
v7: Move build-id note in .rodata.note for EFI builds only.
    Move build-id note in .rodata for EFI builds only. Retain
    it in .note. Change name of object file used by EFI builds to notes.o
    Make on ELF builds the PT_NOTE section name be .note.gnu.build-id and
    ingest that in ELF build.
    Define NT_GNU_BUILD_ID in elfstructs.h

If the hypervisor was built with build-ids we can expose the
build-id value to the toolstack (if it is not built with
it will just return -ENODATA). This is a priviligied operation
so only the controlling stack is able to request this.

v1: Rebase it on Martin's initial patch
v2: Move it to XENVER hypercall
v3: Don't use the third argument for length.
   - Use new structure for XENVER_build_id with variable buf.
v8: Resurrected from v3!

v2: Include HAVE_*, use libxl_zalloc, s/rc/ret/
v3: Retry with different size if 1020 is not enough.
v4: Use VERSION_OP subops instead of the XENVER_ subops
v5: Change it per Wei's review. s/VERSION_OP/VERSION/
    And actually use the proper Style!
v8: VERSION_OP was reverted, resurrect v3 version.

We now expect that the ELF payloads be built with the
--build-id.

Also the .xsplice.deps section has to have the contents
of the hypervisor (or a preceding payload) build-id.

We already have the code to verify the Elf_Note build-id
so export parts of it.

This dependency means the hypervisor MUST be compiled with
--build-id - so we gate the build of xSplice on the availability
of said functionality.

This does not impact the ordering of how the payloads can
be loaded, but it does enforce an STRICT ordering when the
payloads are applied. Also the REPLACE is special - we need
to check that its dependency against the hypervisor - not
the last applied patch.

To make this easier to test we also add an extra test-case
to be used - which can only be applied on top of the
xen_hello_world payload.

As in, one can apply xen_hello_world and then xen_bye_world
on top of that. Not the other way.

We also print the dependency and payloads build_in the keyhandler.

v4: Andrew fix against the build_id.o mutilations.
    Andrew fix to not include extra symbols in binary.id
v5: s/ssize_t/unsigned int/
v6: s/an NT_GNU../a NT_GNU/
   - Squash "xsplice: Print dependency and payloads build_id in the keyhandler"
     in this patch.
   - Add in xen_build_id_check size of section for better checking.
v7: Added Andrew's reviewed-by.
    Change the .name in test-case to adhere to spec.
    Dropped NT_GNU_BUILD_ID and moved that to earlier patch
    (build_id: Provide ld-embedded build-ids)
    Amended spec and code to only have one of .xsplice.depends and
    .note.gnu.build-id
    Expanded comment about note.o and why we don't use arch/x86/note.o.bin
    Moved xen_build_id_check definition to xsplice.h from version.h
    (and dropping the #include's in version.h)
    Sort header files in tests.
v8:
 - Change two of the dprinkt from XENLOG_DEBUG to XENLOG_ERR

+ * The build-id of the payload it depends on (extracted from the

With this third payload one can do:

-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice load xen_hello_world.xsplice
Uploading xen_hello_world.xsplice (10148 bytes)
Performing check: completed
Performing apply:. completed

[xen_hello_world depends on hypervisor build-id]
-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice load xen_bye_world.xsplice
Uploading xen_bye_world.xsplice (7076 bytes)
Performing check: completed
Performing apply:. completed
[xen_bye_world depends on xen_hello_world build-id]
-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice upload xen_replace_world xen_replace_world.xsplice
Uploading xen_replace_world.xsplice (7148 bytes)
-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice list
 ID                                     | status
----------------------------------------+------------
xen_hello_world                         | APPLIED
xen_bye_world                           | APPLIED
xen_replace_world                       | CHECKED
-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice replace xen_replace_world
Performing replace:. completed
-bash-4.1# xl info | grep extra
xen_extra              : Hello Again World!
-bash-4.1# xen-xsplice list
 ID                                     | status
----------------------------------------+------------
xen_hello_world                         | CHECKED
xen_bye_world                           | CHECKED
xen_replace_world                       | APPLIED

and revert both of the previous payloads and apply
the xen_replace_world.

All the magic of this is in the Makefile - we extract
the build-id from the hypervisor (xen-syms) and jam it
in the xen_replace_world as .xsplice.depends.

It would have been really nice if you had added the missing "are" ...

Jan suggested to just drop the uint32_t and uint64_t business and use
a void pointer. It is nicer so I've put a new version up with this.

The interdiff between this (v8.1) and (v9) is:


Julien, Stefano,

Are you guys OK with this? It does compile under ARM/ARM64 without
trouble. If you are OK I will re-instate Julien's Ack on the 
patch that uses and introduces this:
(xsplice: Implement support for applying/reverting/replacing patches.)

I would go further an explicitly declare this API unstable, as patches
must be built against an exact hypervisor source.  This also gives us
leaway in the future.

Why use a conditional expression here when its condition already is a boolean one
just needing negating?

Is there a particular reason why you open code copy_from_guest() here? And
considering that you now also read the string here, isn't the function name
somewhat off?

I generally advocate for not doing allocations with locks held, and I don't think
it would severely complicate the code here doing so.

It will present a problem to the xsplice-tools.git which are outside
the tree. Right now they have their own header file (which mirrors this
one). But if we make it unstable and start mucking around then folks
using the tool would need to pass parameters for 'what version' is
this.

I would rather not have this happen - and now that we do not need
the #ifdef BITS_PER_LONG we can also remove the __XEN__ conditional.

Either way, this is something that can be done later.

B/c I thought you would want it this way.

I changed it to

466         if ( ret != -ENOSYS && ret != -EOPNOTSUPP )
467             copyback = 1;

But I don't think this what you meant by 'negating'? As in:

 copyback = !rc ?

But one of the subops returns the number of items and we definitly
want copyback=1 for that.

Yes. In the earlier versions I only verified the name->name and
then later on made the copy. You pointed out that in effect I had
invalidated the earlier checks. Also you asked to make the 
name have a NUL padding - so I put that together - the verification
here checks the name for this. And since to verify I need to copy it in first..

I will change the name of the function to 'get_name'

I can certainly unlock and then lock again (when adding
it to the list).

That has the positive aspect that in the later patches when
we do vzalloc for the payload we can do it without holding locks.

I don't think that's the case: The mere use of pointer types in there makes it
so the type shouldn't be exposed to entities executing outside of hypervisor
context.

What I mean with "negating" was

copyback = (ret != -ENOSYS && ret != -EOPNOTSUPP);

That would create a race again afaict. Instead what I have been trying to hint
at is that the allocation should be done before taking the lock, freeing the object
again if in the end it turned out it's not going to be needed. Hence the referral to
possibly complicating the code.

Is that really the case? I think it was Andrew who suggested to not expose a
second variant of vfree(), as the address type can be inferred from the address.

How about ASSERT()ing that t is in range before using it as an array index?

With the address/type parameter redundancy dropped at the very least from
the non-internal functions, I think everything else here is fine.

Why not also -EINVAL? I don't think the standard permits empty string table

Casting away constness is one of the main reasons I complain about casts in
general. If you really need to modify some fields in the section header, you should
imo cast away constness just there. But even better would be if you left the
section header alone.

Allowing delta to be zero here seems suspicious: Are you doing that because
some sections come without data (and hence without offset)? In that case you'd
better skip the check on those section types (e.g. SHT_NOBITS) only. In fact
the offset being below the end of the ELF header would likely indicate a broken
image.

Isn't this redundant with the check in elf_resolve_sections()? Or is this needed
because the one here runs before that other one?

Now here I don't see why you special case delta being zero, the more with the

If this check is needed, then >=. But I think it should be redundant with the more
complete one in elf_resolve_sections().

Yes. That ends up being checked in xsplice_header_check. Added comment

In earlier reviews you said that casting away constness in

The loop (earlier) had started at 0 so the delta could have been zero.
Anyhow that not being the case anymore I will just do:

We don't verify sh_name in elf_resolve_sections.

This is where we check that sh_name is within the shstrtab.

That will make 'xsplice_elf_resolve_symbols' unhappy:

elf->sym[i].sym->st_value = (unsigned
long)symbols_lookup_by_name(elf->sym[i].name);

Unless I cast away constness.

 This should be added in the main section, somewhere ahead of the xstate.o
still visible in context.

int64_t and int32_t please (for consistency); I actually doubt the cast on the left

According to the most recent version of that patch, shouldn't you use the values in

What is the idea behind having this hook (instead of generic code just calling

So this is one of the places (the only one?) where the section header gets
altered. Are you not expecting problems down the road resulting from
overwriting this field? After all it's used not just in control sections...

Is there any reason to have four loops here, with quite a bit of redundancy in
the if()s, instead of just one loop with a if/else sequence?

Also it's not really clear whether you really mean to honor non-progbits, non-
nobits sections with SHF_ALLOC set. Perhaps such would better be refused
for the now at least.

"else memset();" is what I would have expected here. Now I see that the
allocation function clears the pages (in a bogusly open coded way, instead
of using vzalloc()), but why is that so?

If you really mean to check this, shouldn't this be done earlier, avoiding needless

With this the variable name "rela" is bogus (as it suggests RELA only).

With the adjustment above - who is y? (But perhaps this needs taking care of in

As said, I'd suggest making this even more strict by checking at least against
the ELF header size.

I don't think so - there's no overflow being checked for here at all, this is
just a within bounds check. Just compare with the other one.

What if I get -ENOMEM and that the user supplied an payload we already
have? In that case I would return -ENOMEM while I would expect us to
return -EEXIST.

Unless I add some extra checks to continue on?

Also one could do a bit of memory DoS (perhaps by mistake) by continously
uploading the same and same payload and us first allocating the memory,
and then doing the check for the payload existence (which would then
free the memory). Since the allocation is outside the lock we can
eat a bit of memory.

Or unless you didn't check the allocation result right after the allocation call,
but only where you check it now.

Why that? You'd free the memory right away on the error path.

Again (and I won't make further comments to that effect, the more that this was

The reference to MCE is misleading here: You don't redirect the latter here, so its

     Misplaced hunk (belongs in an earlier patch, and matches exactly what I had asked
for there).

Why do you, btw, need two of them? I would seem to me that having just one
for both purposes should be fine.

To conserve stack space, use a bool_t array instead and do the check-and-exit
here instead of in a second loop.

Why is there a second ("internal") variant of this structure now? What
guarantees it to remain in sync with the non-"internal" one?

Since the string literal occurs at least twice, I'd suggest having a #define for it.

Following to our discussion yesterday - can't we (ab)use the section merge
flag here to report the structure size, along the lines of what relocation
sections do for their elements?

The recurring (from the design doc) use of the wording "with no stack" has been
puzzling me from the beginning. Nothing really executes with no stack. How
about "without deep call stack" or some such?

Also - aren't we in common code here? If so, a reference to NMI doesn't belong
here (and a reference to MCE should really be added if the comment got moved
elsewhere).

Is "the only one" really a precise, architecture independent statement? Aren't
we getting here perhaps with at least one more return address on the stack
(the transition back from C to assembly code)?

Doesn't this need to move one line up? There's no further write following here,

CPUID, as mentioned before, does not do any i-cache flushing.

put_cpu_maps() is a spin unlock, i.e. a write barrier anyway.

Iirc the initial acquire now intentionally is a try-lock. Hence it's quite clear
that this one can't be anything else either.

Putting aside the usefulness of this comment, the items in parentheses aren't

This is getting really odd. I can only hope all this goes away with ...

... this getting folded back into the public header version.

Which is OK for data = xzalloc(struct payload);
That is not much data.

The issue is later (the 'Implement payload loading') is the allocation
of the raw_data which wants memory of size by ELF file.

This can be say 100kB or such.

Why do these two need doing in order? And why can't $(XSPLICE) not just depend
on its to object files, without needing explict make invocation to generate them?

To give a good example, I think this would better include the respective

Pointless parentheses (also btw on the new_addr initializer, which would be
nice to get fixed in the earlier patch).

I continue to think that this initializer is pointless. And if this or a variant filling
just the first byte was needed, then please be consistent with the rest of the
function and either use '\0' here or plain 0 in the other two relevant places.

Do you need symbols other than those marked "new_symbol" past the loading
of the module? If not, wouldn't it be worthwhile to shrink the symbol table to just
those, likely speeding up the lookup?

The two casts make me wonder whether the two functions shouldn't return
void *, and then whether struct xsplice_symbol's value field shouldn't then
perhaps be void * too.

So one thing I'm realizing only now: Is there no support for using <symbol>+<offset>
to fill ->old_addr?

Why "checked"? The only thing happening further down is this possibly
getting overwritten with 1.

With its current return value, the cast is pointless. But this makes clear that either
here or above a cast is going to be needed. So perhaps just keep it as is, except
for this unnecessary cast.

I don't see this field being used for anything, it seems to only ever get written to.

Why three? Two (or a single one with element pairs) ought to be sufficient:
Afaict you could just have (symbol-address,symbol-offset) pairs which you
then sort and search by name (using symbols_expand_symbol() on
symbol-offset, which in turn you store using the result of get_symbol_offset()
during setup of the table).

Why would you treat the <filename># prefix specially? The full thing is the

What does "2m vs 0ms" improvement mean here? If you mean to say that on
some symbols there's no gain at all, then I'd question whether millisecond
granularity is enough to see an improvement.

With the basic data question above I'm not going to look at the actual code
for now; I'll leave this until either I understand why the suggested variant
can't work, or until a future version implementing that one.

Considering this, "best" would probably also better be unsigned int, and
you could then set and compare it to data->nsyms or UINT_MAX.

Again makes questionable whether region's start and end fields wouldn't better be
const void *.

What if you crash while applying or reverting a patch? Is the list update at

I'm generally opposed to new symbols with double underscores in front of
them. Maybe (considering the non-xSplice case) in this case they're warranted,
but I'd prefer something along the lines of Linux'es __init_or_module (without
the double underscores then of course).

The second half is misleading - there's no such requirement for early boot
patching. The requirement is that the code must not currently be executing
(which at that time is guaranteed by there only being a single CPU, which
is in a well defined region of code).

So to cover the issue pointed out above you should be patching a longer

Also if you printed the message outside of the conditional, expected and actual
values would likely disagree anyway (as soon as there are multiple entries), so
some editing of the text would be nice too.

 The placement makes it somewhat non-obvious that this is an option passed

This, btw, should be accompanied by an adjustment to the clean target, for the
case where a build gets interrupted before the rule above manages to delete the

__read_mostly? Also these variables are kind of pointless to have in a build-id-
less build. But I guess that's going to be rare anyway.

Coming back to the remark on the much earlier patch: The latest here it should
become pretty clear that this explicit invocation of make is getting unwieldy.

These three checks could be done by two ones, and for one more correctly:
First check that the addition doesn't overflow, and then do the latter check.
But then it looks like the addition should also include sizeof(*n) (and then
use > instead of >=)?

So if namesz is 3, this will (I think wrongly) pass as it seems.

Checking for zero on a _loaded_ module seems pointless now that you
require build IDs. Independent of that you anyway need

data->id.len != payload->id.len ||

Or else this is possibly accessing out of bounds data.

new_symbol indicates whether it is newly introduced in this binary patch 
or whether it overrides a symbol in a previous binary patch (or the core 
binary). Either way, the symbol will be used when resolving a backtrace.

To have an symmetry with the allocation one. I don't know enough about
ARM to know whether this logic above can be hoisted in the common code
and hence called (or compiled) on ARM.

Let me try.

Oh. I was somehow under the impression you liked size_t more than

The 'man elf' tells me :
"Some  sections  hold a table of fixed-sized entries, such as a symbol
table.  For such a section, this member gives the size in bytes for each entry.
 This member contains zero if the section does not hold  a  table  of 
fixed-size entries."

We may have an value for an payload with one symbol but we don't depend
on this value having any value and just re-use.

We could change the logic to save the aligned size (which would then alter
the amount of pages to allocate along with the amount of bytes to copy)
in some 'per-section' temporary variable (so adding an extra field in
'struct xsplice_elf_sec').

Let me prototype that.

There was a historical reason - we wre re-using 'size' but that is no

B/c we end up having vzalloc_xen (oh wait, we made that go away). Yes
we do need an memset or introduce vzalloc_xen (and keep vmalloc_xen?).

Your call - memset or introduce vzalloc_xen ?

Right! Will move those  checks right above the switch statement.

OK, and re-reading above you say "imo cast away constness just there."
so you are OK then with functions casting away constness if they
need to modify the structure.

I am not sure I understand you. Initially I thought you mean the
p_filesz (which is the program header) - but this ELF file is not a
program - it is an relocatable object so there are no program header.

Ah, I think I mislead you! (with the 'if (!delta)..')The code will have:
if ( !delta )
	return -EINVAL;
if ( delta + sec[i].sec->sh_size > elf->len )
	return -EINVAL;

(Or rather a combination of these and make the printk print the right warning).

So earlier (in common/xsplice, verify_payload) there was a check on the
size of the payload (up to 2MB), hence my check here would catch the
overflow violation ((-1U) > 2(MB), but it is not very clear.

I modified this above to be:

303     if ( elf->hdr->e_shoff > ULONG_MAX - elf->hdr->e_shoff )                    
304     {                                                                           
305         dprintk(XENLOG_ERR, XSPLICE "%s: Bogus e_shoff!\n", elf->name);         
306         return -EINVAL;                                                         
307     }                                                                           
308             

I can also add back the  elf->hdr->e_shoff > elf->len in this
conditional if you would like (along with the comment about 2(MB))

That is b/c the the xen_hello_world.c depends on the generation of
config.h.

I _think_ I can do:
xsplice: config.h xen_hello_world_func.o

As the xen_hello_world_func.c should be able to be built without any
dependencies.

Or maybe I can do:

xen_hello_world.o: config.h
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $@
	^^^ - copy-n-paste from Rules.mk

xsplice: config.h xen_hello_world.o xen_hello_world_func.o

But I recall having issues with the $(CC).. I recall that
I tried the same thing as what Rules.mk has for %.o build (as in
copy-n-paste) but it had issues. But it may have been an earlier
bug in my code that I tripped over.

Let me play with this a bit.

If it's really just one exceptional place where this happens, I guess it's okay as,
well, an exception. Otherwise the const would need to be dropped wherever
necessary to avoid having to cast it away in certain places.

Right, and I indeed mean the ELF header: The section headers clearly can't
start inside it.

That's what I had understood, and the first if() is which I'd like to see made
slightly more strict.

Something's clearly wrong here, with e_shoff used on both sides.

It's not because I like it, but for consistency with all the other elf->len checks.

When used where actually talking about sizes, I indeed prefer size_t. But
here we have a count which we know will be much lower than UINT_MAX.

My main concern is that SHF_MERGE sections (i.e. ordinary data ones) also
already use this field.

The latter would be my preference.

But why would you want to duplicate the rule? All you need is representation
of the dependency.

OK. Let me add the 'offset' member (in xsplice_elf_sec) to store the value.

Albeit it only gets used during move_payload. And later that offset value
can easily computed using ->load_addr minus ->data.

Perhaps I should introduce an temporary array to hold this value instead?

Ross hopefully answered that to your satisfaction?

So I did try that and it all worked nicely on x86. However on ARM32:

arm <konrad@localhost:~/xen/xen> make -j8 1>1
symbols.c: In function 'symbols_lookup_by_name':
symbols.c:287:20: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size
[-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]

275     uint64_t addr = 0; /* MUST be initialized. */                               

286         if ( !strcmp(name, symname) )                                           
287             return (void *)addr; 

Which is rather unfortunate. I think I will have to make it unsigned
long.

No. Just <symbol>. I updated the design document to outline this missing

OK, I also did it (in the later patches) for the .xsplice.depends
and .gnu....

In other words - the xsplice-tools.git and the test-cases (in
arch/x86/xen/test) would modify the sec->sh_entsize to have the
sizeof(xsplice_patch_func) aka 64 (0x40) ?

[Note this could also extend to .xsplice.hooks.load and
.xsplice.hooks.unload]

The xsplice-tools.git could surely do it, but the built-in test-cases -
not so much. I would need to do some in-place binary handrolling - unless you
know of some tool or some __section modifiers?

Yes! We only add the struct payload to this applied_list _after_ the
patching has been done.` Hence if we crashed the list would not contain the
struct payload that was patching  - but would be safe to traverse.

As in: 
obj-$(CONFIG_XSPLICE) += alternative.o xsplice.o 

.. but then how do I define an build for alternative.init.o?

ifndef CONFIG_XSPLICE
 obj-bin-$(CONFIG_XSPLICE) += alternative.init.o  
endif

Why would I want to print the message outside the conditional?
Or did you mean:

             dprintk(XENLOG_ERR, XSPLICE "%s: Size of .alt_instr is not multiple of %zu!\n",
                     elf->name, sizeof(*a));

I couldn't find the localized entries for binutils, but that may change
in the future.

Do you think it would be better to go back to the version check?

Or look at this at some pointer later - since you mentioned you were
OK with giving an Ack even as is?

Whichever is more feasible / less convoluted, I would say.

Well, that's why I suggest (ab) using the SHF_MERGE flag, i.e. to
see whether we can make gas do what we want. Fiddling with the
binary I would not recommend, i.e. if we can't get gas to do what
we want we should rather stay with what there is.

Well, why would any kind of address be uint64_t on ARM32?

Well, that only partly answers the question. Patch application to me
means the entire process, i.e. up to and including adding the new
patch to the list (read: the crash could also happen there). Hence
I'd still like it to be made sure that even if the addition has got done
only partially, the list remains traversable. Or IOW, I'm not sure the
standard list macros make any guarantees like that.

alternative-y := alternative.init.o
alternative-$(CONFIG_XSPLICE) :=
obj-$(CONFIG_XSPLICE) += alternative.o xsplice.o
obj-bin-y += $(alternative-y)

The main goal with this purely list based approach being that this
way it doesn't matter whether CONFIG_XSPLICE is undefined,
defined but empty, or CONFIG_XSPLICE=n.

You wouldn't want to. This was just mentioned to help explain
the issue. But maybe I managed to confuse you.

Indeed that's what I meant to get at.

No, definitely not. Just that you shouldn't look at textual output
imo, but at the linker actually groking the option.

Yes, looking at this later is fine, as long as it doesn't get forgotten.

Oh, the xensyms_read - which is used in a hypercalls (for reading the
symbols) as well - requires an pointer to an uint64_t as an argument. Hence
the need for using that type.

I can certainly muck with it so that it can do xen_pfn_t.

Which also is a 64-bit type on ARM, and which would be really wrong
to use here. There's really no point in xensyms_read() taking other
than an unsigned long *, and if the sysctl wants a uint64_t, then it
should use a temporary variable to do the conversion.

The big problem I ran in was that I had to do casting in
'modify_payload'. To lower the amount of casting I ended making

load_addr be void * (if it was const void * I would have to cast away
the constness in xsplice_elf.c):

 elf->sec[i].load_addr = (void *)buf + offset[i];

where 'buf' is:
  buf = payload->text_addr;

(and buf it also a const void *).

So I am coming back to this. The ones that this hits are:
Symbol's  section .note.GNU-stack is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .comment is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_aranges is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_pubnames is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_info is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_abbrev is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_line is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_frame is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_str is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_loc is !SHF_ALLOC
Symbol's  section .debug_pubtypes is !SHF_ALLOC

I am not sure what to make out of it. As in the code ignores
these sections. I tried to ake the test code strip these out:

strip -d 

But that stripped out the relocation entries out to!
Doing just:

strip -R .comment

Did the same exact thing (ripped out .rela*).

Keep in mind that this code above does not set 'rc' at all - so
the rc is 0 by default and we just ignore this specific section.

I would rather keep it this way - otherwise I have to make the
test code go through an hand-rolled linker script -  I can't use
Xen's (xen.lds.S) as it has the ASSERTS that get triggered:

#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
ASSERT(kexec_reloc_size - kexec_reloc <= PAGE_SIZE, "kexec_reloc is too
large")
#endif

As the object file has none of these entries in it.

What's your preference? Leave it as is (so skip over those
sections), or be pedantic on them and require no !SHF_ALLOC sections?

And also bail out if any of the sections don't have an st_type that we
implement, such as .comment:

 [28] .comment          PROGBITS 0000000000000000  000002a4
       000000000000005a  0000000000000001  MS       0     0     1

Or let them be but not do anything to them (whcih is what we currently

Hence (taking all of the above) without any cast and with load_addr
being const void *, text_addr could be so, too. Or else the picture
above isn't the complete one.

With all of the ..snip..-s above, it's now really hard to answer this:

Right, because these sections are of no interest to the loading
process. And hence none of the symbols (if there really are any)
in those sections should be of any interest either.

I'm not sure I'm with you here: I didn't ask for anything to be removed
or added, all I had asked is whether that check shouldn't be moved up.

If I did that I will need to uncast constness when memcpy data in (a couple of lines below in move_payload). And also when doing relocation.

Yes. Maybe the version I have is buggy.

Makes the .xsplice.funcs have sh_entsize have the size of 64 bytes:

Unfortunatly the compilation throws this:

This is with:
binutils-2.20.51.0.2-15.fc13.x86_64
and with:
binutils-2.25-9.fc22.x86_64

Ideas?

I could try to wrap the definition of these
struct xsplice_patch_func __section(".xsplice.funcs") xsplice_xen_hello_world 
using an macro - but that did not work very well (I couldn't manage it
to take the value of say XSPLICE_PAYLOAD_VERSION).

Perhaps skip this?

Added it on http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XSplice#Hypervisor so I will not

The payload will typically have many entries like:

      9: 0000000000000000     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    5 .LC1
     10: 0000000000000006     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    5 .LC2
     11: 000000000000000d     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    5 .LC3
     12: 0000000000000028     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    4 .LC4
     13: 0000000000000058     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    4 .LC5

used when referencing strings (due to the use of -fPIC). While it is not 
a problem for them to go into the symbol table, if more than one payload 
is loaded, there will be duplicate conflicting symbols. So, to prevent 
these symbols from going into the symbol table, I disallowed STT_NOTYPE. 
Perhaps not the best solution but...

Ehem - no, not really. This is what the patch has:

    uint8_t *buf;
...
    buf = arch_xsplice_alloc_payload(size);
...
            elf->sec[i].load_addr = buf + elf->sec[i].sec->sh_entsize;
...
                memcpy(elf->sec[i].load_addr, elf->sec[i].data,
                       elf->sec[i].sec->sh_size);

So all it would take is to substitute the first argument to memcpy()
by an expression involving buf (i.e. the right side of the earlier
assignment, or some intermediate variable used to avoid having
the same expression twice).

> And also when doing relocation.

There it would then be really unavoidable. That's a place where I
would say casting away constness could be considered acceptable,
but I'd like to come back to your earlier reply first: You refer to
modify_payload() and an expression involving "buf + offset[i]",
neither of which I can spot anywhere in this patch. Oh, looks like
you mean this

            if ( (elf->sec[i].sec->sh_flags & SHF_EXECINSTR) )
                 buf = payload->text_addr;
            else if ( (elf->sec[i].sec->sh_flags & SHF_WRITE) )
                buf = payload->rw_addr;
             else
                buf = payload->ro_addr;

            elf->sec[i].load_addr = buf + elf->sec[i].sec->sh_entsize;

in move_payload(). But that's the same as above then - by using
suitable intermediate variables you can deal with the structure
fields pointing to const quite easily, since the loop the above is in
is preceded by

    payload->text_addr = buf;
    payload->rw_addr = payload->text_addr + PAGE_ALIGN(payload->text_size);
    payload->ro_addr = payload->rw_addr + PAGE_ALIGN(payload->rw_size);

and buf points to non-const.

Bottom line: While doing the loading it is clear that some of the
image needs to be modified, and hence you need pointers to
non-const, or cast away constness under rare circumstances.
But since for the whole rest of the lifetime of the module you
do want to express that the image pieces are not supposed to
change, the goal ought to be to have as many as possible
pointers to const in the control structure.

And I'm really sorry for being this picky, you simply suffer from
me having written more than one image loader as well as a linker
and object file analysis/massaging tools in the past.

Well, this presumably being a redundant .section directive
somewhere it would require seeing the full .c together with the
intermediate .s in order to tell. But I guess to avoid you spending
more time on this secondary aspect, let's just drop this for now
and just put it on the todo list (as long as the thing is tech preview
we can still alter requirements we place on the actual payloads).

First of all symbols starting with .L aren't meant to and up in the
symbol table at all (i.e. even that of any intermediate .o file). So
there's likely (but not necessarily) something wrong with the tool
chain used (i.e. normally such symbols wouldn't be needed for e.g.
relocations, as those should get converted to section relative ones).

Yet _if_ such symbols make it into the symbol table of a .o, then
there is no reason for them to not also make it into the runtime
symbol table. Of course similar ones from different modules then
shouldn't conflict with one another, and as these are local symbols
perhaps the reason for them conflicting is that in the process of
creating the runtime symbol table entries you neglect to prefix
them with their source or object file names, as is done by
xen/tools/symbols.c for the core symbol table? Quite obviously
the symbol name generation should match between core and
modules...

This is not particular to the xsplice build process. Any version of 
GCC+binutils that I've tested with will generate .LC
symbols for strings into the .o file. Clang generates similar .L.str* 
symbols, in addition to other useless ones like 'NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT
ABS X86_FEATURE_FFXSR'...

Maybe it uses these .LC symbols rather than section relative ones
because they point to a mergeable string section, and merging string
sections would be harder with section relative references?

The build tool does prefix the required functions and objects with their
source/object file names. The problem is that these are generated
symbols, so even if you had e.g. keyhandler.c#.LC0, keyhandler.c#.LC1,
in the symbol table, they might be completed unrelated if you change the
source even slightly. Having these entries in the symbol table would not
make any sense.

Rather than ignoring STT_NOTYPE, an alternative would be to ignore 
symbols starting with ".L".

I can confirm the symbols getting generated in the .s file, ...

... but I can't confirm them making it into the .o file, not to speak
of being used for relocations. I've tried gcc 4.3.4 as well as 5.3.0
(with and without -fPIC).

Why not? They could still serve as anchor for subsequent patches.

That's an option, but as said before, the rules for which symbols to
enter into the symbol table should be consistent for core and modules.

It does. I've copied-n-pasted the list_add_tail hacking it have an
BUG_ON(1):

+static inline void __list_add_crash(struct list_head *new,
+                              struct list_head *prev, /* applied list */
+                              struct list_head *next /* applied_list */)
+{
+    next->prev = new; /* applied_list->prev = new */
+    new->next = next; /* new->next = applied_list */
+    new->prev = prev; /* new->prev = applied_list */
+    BUG_ON(1);
+    prev->next = new; /* applied_list->next=new */
+}
+static inline void list_add_tail_crash(struct list_head *new, struct
list_head *head)
+{
+    __list_add_crash(new, head->prev /* applied_list */, head /* applied_list */);
+}
 static int apply_payload(struct payload *data)
 {
     unsigned int i;
@@ -967,7 +981,7 @@ static int apply_payload(struct payload *data)
 
     arch_xsplice_patching_leave();
 
-    list_add_tail(&data->applied_list, &applied_list);
+    list_add_tail_crash(&data->applied_list, &applied_list);
     register_virtual_region(&data->region);
 
     return 0;


And we get:

(XEN) xsplice: xen_hello_world: Applying 1 functions
(XEN) Xen BUG at xsplice.c:963
(XEN) *** DOUBLE FAULT ***

A bit more debugging shows that "is_patch" does not iterate over
the list - (which is inline with what I expected!) - so the insertion
is safe when crashing.

Now why I get a double fault.. will have to investigate that at some
point.

This doesn't mean anything - in the absence of the BUG_ON() the
compiler is free to re-order all four assignments.

How does that match up with

bool_t is_patch(const void *ptr)
{
    struct payload *data;

    /*
     * No locking since this list is only ever changed during apply or revert
     * context.
     */
    list_for_each_entry ( data, &applied_list, applied_list )
    ...

i.e. where we started from here? I really think you want to at least
consider using list_add_rcu() at the insertion site, as your main
concern is that prev->next shouldn't get updated before new->next.

Oddly enough - no. The 11th rune in .gitignore may be doing it:
     11 *.bin

But then we also have other:
120 tools/firmware/*.bin
200 tools/tests/x86_emulator/blowfish.bin
243 xen/arch/x86/boot/reloc.bin

Which seem to be pointless - I removed them (and had the files) and
'git status' still didn't register the *.bin files.

Ah, this happens only with optimization, and I had tried only
without. Looks to indeed be connected to these strings getting
put into mergeable string sections, instead of just plain .rodata.

Above .o file was a core one, and doesn't tell anyway whether in the
runtime symbol table the local symbols would be properly prefixed by
file name. Or did I misunderstand you?

Yes to "Tech Preview". I put it on http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XSplice#Hypervisor
so I would not forget.

The thing that makes it "safe" (in lieu of your comment about
re-ordering) is that the trap code does:

1289     /* WARN, BUG or ASSERT: decode the filename pointer and line number. */
1290     filename = bug_ptr(bug);
1291     if ( !is_kernel(filename) && !is_patch(filename) )
1292         goto die;

Which means we first try 'is_kernel'. Since the list addition cannot be
part of the payload it will always be part of the hypervisor.

/me nods. Let me look at that.

I'm sorry, but no. The bug hit (and hence the referenced file name)
may be in some other payload, requiring list traversal.

I had 'built_in.o' or 'prelink.o' as the final one in mind - in which the
.LCx are present. But I think you are thinking about 'xen-syms' output.

Looking at the Makefile runes we hit this:
127 $(TARGET)-syms: prelink.o xen.lds $(BASEDIR)/common/symbols-dummy.o
128         $(LD) $(LDFLAGS) -T xen.lds -N prelink.o $(build_id_linker) \
129             $(BASEDIR)/common/symbols-dummy.o -o $(@D)/.$(@F).0

And that ends up causing the .xen-syms.0 file to drop all the .LC0.

However we can't do that. We _have_ to produce an relocatable object
and not do the final linking (so we append -r to the linker invocation).

If we do not:
ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 0000000000400144
xen_hello_world.o:(.xsplice.funcs+0x10): undefined reference to `xen_extra_version'
ld: xen_hello_world.xsplice: hidden symbol `xen_extra_version' isn't defined
make[3]: *** [xen_hello_world.xsplice] Error 1

I tried for fun to use strip:
xen/xen/arch/x86/test> strip --strip-symbol=".LC0" xen_replace_world.xsplice
strip: not stripping symbol `.LC0' because it is named in a relocation

But it has some hard rules about it.

Ah yes! Let me dig in the rcu list to thwart the compiler from
re-ordering.

I've looked into this a little further. The only .LC* symbols left in 
the .o file are the ones which are used in bug_frame relas. These 
symbols do not make it into the core symbol table because the relas are 
dropped when the xen binary is linked just before tools/symbols is run. 
Obviously we can't drop the rela sections for xsplice because it needs 
to be relocatable.

They're not useful because they're autogenerated and the numbering may 
change from build to build. So two patch modules may have conflicting 
symbols just because they happen to use the same .LCx symbol.

Yes. And, as best I can tell, .L symbols are not in the core table so 
this would then make it consistent for modules.

That's odd: I don't know of us telling the linker to do so, and imo
it shouldn't do this by default. But yes, linkers often do strange
things...

Of course.

Which it is rightfully saying.

So with the linker stripping .LC* (and why knows what else), you
stripping them when building the runtime symbol table would be
fine with me, provided we can somehow identify in the linker why
this stripping happens, and which precise set of symbols get
stripped (which you should then match in our code).

Not according to what I see - there are certainly also .text
relocations referencing .LC*.

As per my earlier reply to Konrad, there must be more to this. I.e.
"normal" local symbols won't get dropped together with relocations
referencing them getting resolved.

That's not of interest.

Not if they're, as mentioned before, get properly prefixed with the
respective file name.

But as said in reply to Konrad, I'm fine with them getting dropped
as long as our rule matches ld's (which btw may be arch dependent).

In my case I seem to have one of the test-cases have one the .text
section.
 That is:

File: arch/x86/test/xen_bye_world.xsplice

Relocation section '.rela.text' at offset 0x11a8 contains 1 entries:
  Offset          Info           Type           Sym. Value    Sym. Name + Addend
000000000007  001300000002 R_X86_64_PC32     0000000000000000 .LC0 - 4

Which .. is related to the string:

Disassembly of section .text:

0000000000000000 <xen_bye_world>:
   0:   55                      push   %rbp
   1:   48 89 e5                mov    %rsp,%rbp
   4:   48 8d 05 00 00 00 00    lea    0x0(%rip),%rax        # b <xen_bye_world+0xb>
   b:   c9                      leaveq 
   c:   c3                      retq   

Which we obviously do need.

Here is what I came up using your idea. Do you want me to add 'Suggested-by' Jan on it?

Subject: [PATCH] xsplice, symbols: Implement fast symbol names -> virtual
 addresses lookup

The current mechanism is geared towards fast virtual address ->
symbol names lookup. This is fine for the normal use cases
(BUG_ON, WARN_ON, etc), but for xSplice - where we need to find
hypervisor symbols - it is slow.

To understand this patch, a description of the existing
method is explained first. For folks familar go to 'NEW CODE:'.

HOW IT WORKS:

The symbol table lookup mechanism uses a simple encoding mechanism
where it extracts the common ascii characters that the symbol's use.

This saves us space. The lookup mechanism is geared towards looking
up symbols based on address. We have one 0..N (where N is
the number of symbols, so 6849 for example) table:

symbols_addresses[0..N]

And an 1-1 (in a loose fashion) of the symbols (encoded) in a
symbols_names stream of size N.

The N is variable (later on that below)

The symbols_names are sorted based on symbols_addresses, which
means that the decoded entries inside symbols_names are not in
ascending or descending order.

There is also the encoding mechanism - the table of 255 entries
called symbols_token_index[]. And the symbols_token_table which
is an stream of ASCIIZ characters, such as (it really
is not a table as the values are variable):

@0   .asciz  "credit"
@6   .asciz  "mask"
..
@300 .asciz  "S"

And the symbols_token_index:
@0        .short  0
@1        .short  7
@2        .short  12
@4        .short  16
...
@84         .short  300

The relationship between them is that the symbols_token_index
gives us the offset to symbols_token_table.

The symbol_names[] array is a stream of encoded values. Each value
follows the same pattern - <len> followed by <encoding values>.
And the another <len> followed by <encoding values>.

Hence to find the right one you need to read <len>, add <len>
(to skip over), read <len>, add <len>, and so on until one
finds the right tuple offset.

The <encoding values> are the indicies into the symbols_token_index.

Meaning if you have:
  0x04, 0x54, 0xda, 0xe2, 0x74
  [4, 84, 218, 226, 116 in human numbering]

The 0x04 tells us that the symbol is four bytes past this one (so next
symbol offset starts at 5). If we lookup symbols_token_index[84] we get 300.
symbols_token[300] gets us the "S". And so on, the string eventually
end up being decode to be 'S_stext'. The first character is the type,
then optionally follwed by the filename (and # right after filename)
and then lastly the symbol, such as:

tvpmu_intel.c#core2_vpmu_do_interrupt

Keep in mind that there are two fixed sized tables:
symbols_addresses[0..symbols_num_syms], and
symbols_markers[0..symbols_num_syms/255].

The symbols_markers is used to speed searching for the right address.
It gives us the offsets within symbol_names that start at the <len><encoded value>.

The way to find a symbol based on the address is:
1) Figure out the 'tuple offset' from symbols_address[0..symbols_num_syms].
   This table is sorted by virtual addresses so finding the value is simple.
2) Get starting offset of symbol_names by retrieving value of
   symbol_markers['tuple offset' / 255].
3). Iterate up to 'tuple_offset & 255' in symbols_markers stream starting
   at 'offset'.
4). Decode the <len><encoded value>

This however does not work very well if we want to search the other
way - we have the symbol name and want to find the address.

NEW CODE:

To make that work we add one fixed size table called symbols_sorted_offsets which
has two elements: offset in symbol stream, offset in the symbol-address.

This whole array is sorted on the original symbol name (in case of collision
we also take into account the type).

The values are for example:

symbols_sorted_offsets:
    .long 83363, 6302 # [.bss, len=5]
    .long 80459, 6084 # [.data, len=5]
..
[The # added for clarity]

Which makes it incredibly easy to get in the symbols_names and also
symbols_addresses (or symbols_offsets)

Searching for symbols is simplified as we can do a binary search
on symbols_sorted_offsets. Since the symbols are sorted it takes on
average 13 calls to symbols_expand_symbol.

v8: New
 - Remove the debug code
 - Return the 'mid' index in symbol_addresses, not the 'low'.
v9:
 - Make it return void*
 - Ditch the old implementation. Use a single fixed-size array
   with two uint32_t values - offset in stream and offset in address.

To drop on the casting I changed the instr and replacement to be 'const void *'
(and also made region->start, and end be const void * as well) so this instead
of being %#lx ended up being %p.

The 'semaphore' is used to get all of the CPUs synced up in the code. Once
they have been synced up (so semaphore == total_cpus-1) we go to the next stage
where all of them disable their IRQs -- and the master patches. Once the patching
is done all of them renable their IRQs.

I am not exactly sure how I would reuse the 'semaphore' on the second part of this
(disable IRQs).

Let me ponder this over the weekend with some crayons and paper..

Correct. These .LCx symbols only cover .rodata.* sections. Any other
local symbols:

[konrad@x230 x86]$ readelf --symbols prelink.o |grep bad_hypercall
 8946: 0000000000145549     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    1 compat_bad_hypercall
 8967: 0000000000145c79     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT    1 bad_hypercall

don't get dropped and do show up in the binary (nm --defined finds them).

While .LC matches the type:
 9147: 00000000000008c0     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT   33 .LC5

They are in four other sections:
konrad@x230 x86]$ readelf --symbols prelink.o |grep LC | awk '{print
$7}' | sort | uniq

I spoke over the weekend with Dan Jacobowitz (who in the past worked 
on binutils) who mentioned that ELF visibility is what one should
pay attention to. And that we shouldn't need to look at LOCAL symbols
at all if we are resolving between objects.

Also he mentions that the  handling of .L* symbols is special since
they're intermediate artifacts of assembly.  They're ... "even more local".

Digging in the binutils over the weekend I found:

/* Return whether a symbol name implies a local symbol.  Most targets
   use this function for the is_local_label_name entry point, but some
   override it.  */


_bfd_elf_is_local_label_name (bfd *abfd ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED,
                              const char *name)
{
  /* Normal local symbols start with ``.L''.  */
  if (name[0] == '.' && name[1] == 'L')
    return TRUE; 
..

The function prototype is suppose to adhere to:

DESCRIPTION
        Return TRUE if a symbol with the name @var{name} in the BFD
        @var{abfd} is a compiler generated local label, 


Looking at the callchain I saw:

/* Link an input file into the linker output file.  This function
   handles all the sections and relocations of the input file at once.
   This is so that we only have to read the local symbols once, and
   don't have to keep them in memory.  */

static bfd_boolean
elf_link_input_bfd (..

And inside there is a big loop in which:

   /* See if we are discarding symbols with this name.  */
      if ((flinfo->info->strip == strip_some
           && (bfd_hash_lookup (flinfo->info->keep_hash, name, FALSE, FALSE)
               == NULL))
          || (((flinfo->info->discard == discard_sec_merge
                && (isec->flags & SEC_MERGE) && !flinfo->info->relocatable)
               || flinfo->info->discard == discard_l)
              && bfd_is_local_label_name (input_bfd, name)))
        continue;

Which really matches with what I see - that is the .LCx symbols are in
mergable sections:

And when we do the final linking:

ld    -melf_x86_64  -T xen.lds -N prelink.o --build-id=sha1 \                   
    /tmp/xen/xen/common/symbols-dummy.o -o /tmp/xen/xen/.xen-syms.0             

The xen.lds.S linker has:

.rodata : {
	..
	*(.rodata.*)
} :text

which collapses these.

(For fun I wrote a seperate entry:
	.rodata.str : {
		__lc_start = .;
		*(.rodata.str1.8)
		__lc_end = .;
	    } :text

and sure enough - that section (.rodata.str) is there and looks. There
are no symbols for it - except the __lc_start and __lc_end.

So coming back to this discussion - the code has this:

static bool_t is_payload_symbol(const struct xsplice_elf *elf,
                                const struct xsplice_elf_sym *sym)
{
    if ( sym->sym->st_shndx == SHN_UNDEF ||
         sym->sym->st_shndx >= elf->hdr->e_shnum )
        return 0;

    return (elf->sec[sym->sym->st_shndx].sec->sh_flags & SHF_ALLOC) &&
            (ELF64_ST_TYPE(sym->sym->st_info) == STT_OBJECT ||
             ELF64_ST_TYPE(sym->sym->st_info) == STT_FUNC);
}

You OK with it being the way it is? I would naturally include a 
comment about these local symbols like .L*

?

With some helpful investigation by Konrad, I've found this snippet in 
binutils:

   /* See if we are discarding symbols with this name.  */
   if ((flinfo->info->strip == strip_some
        && (bfd_hash_lookup (flinfo->info->keep_hash, name, FALSE, FALSE)
            == NULL))
       || (((flinfo->info->discard == discard_sec_merge
	&& (isec->flags & SEC_MERGE)
	&& !bfd_link_relocatable (flinfo->info))
        || flinfo->info->discard == discard_l)
        && bfd_is_local_label_name (input_bfd, name)))
     continue;

The default value for info->discard is discard_sec_merge, so:
Local labels referring to a mergeable section are discarded when the 
output is not relocatable.
A local label is defined as:
1) Starts with .X (for i386 unixware compilers)
2) Starts with .L
3) Starts with .. (for SRV4 compilers)
4) Starts with _.L_ (for older buggy GCC)
5) Matches L0^A.*
6) Matches L[0-9]+{^A|^B}[0-9]* (for assembler generated local labels)

So to match what is used by the default hypervisor build, I think we 
should change the check to discard when the symbol matches (2), (5), or 
(6) above and refers to a mergeable section. The above rules are defined 
in _bfd_elf_is_local_label_name and elf_i386_is_local_label_name.

Right now you have

+        timeout = xsplice_work.timeout + NOW();
+        if ( xsplice_spin(&xsplice_work.semaphore, timeout, cpus, "CPU") )
+            goto abort;
+
+        /* All CPUs are waiting, now signal to disable IRQs. */
+        xsplice_work.ready = 1;
+        smp_wmb();
+
+        atomic_inc(&xsplice_work.irq_semaphore);

This atomic_inc() could simply become
atomic_set(&xsplice_work.semaphore, 0), while at the same time
getting moved up ahead of the setting of xsplice_work.ready (with
suitable addition of barriers).

Well, in general that's correct, but xSplice intentionally hooks up to
all the symbols available (including local ones in the core image).

Yes, that's then what we want to match in behavior (as also
suggested by Ross in his reply).

But that's what is there already, or am I overlooking some change
you did to it? I.e. STT_NOTYPE are still not being considered, and
there's still no dependency on the .L name prefix.

Yes. (Note that we don't really care about
elf_i386_is_local_label_name(), as we don't have a 32-bit
hypervisor anymore.)

I'll leave that up to you; it was really just a vague idea that I gave...

This now even more calls for using the common list model, at least as
later cleanup.

Oh, nice - you even do the sorting at build time!

No need for an #ifdef around just a declaration.

It's being used just once, so I don't see the value of this. But if you
want to retain it, please at least make it an array instead of a pointer.

That's unfortunate - why are you filtering these out? (Related to
the earlier comment - this could even be strchr(), with no need at
all for a string literal.)

[<filename>#]<symbol>

And what relevance does the type part of the comment have here?

So looking at this I really don't see why you filter filename prefixed
input names above.

Please put the #ifdef/#else/#endif inside the function body, to
avoid duplicating code as much as possible. Putting them outside
would be needed primarily if the function type varied between the
two instances.

How about just "rc = sym1->type - sym2->type"?

How about making this just a single printf()? Also both are unsigned,
so please at least %u, but even better %#x.

s/extra/name/ ?

Or --sort-by-name?

This was an artificat of the earlier version. Removed it all now.

Artifact of the older version - Where I was searching for #.
.. snip.p
I removed the comment.

I would rather have it as %u. As when debugging this I found it quite
useful for these values to be decimal as I could edit the .xen-sym.0.S file
and see in the editor where it would match up with the symbols_addresses
or the symbol_names in a quite easy way. Doing it in hex means doing extra
calculations.
