powerpc has a number of read-only sections and tables that are put after
RO_DATA(). Move the __end_rodata symbol to cover these as well.
Setting memory to read-only at boot is done using __init_begin, change
that to use __end_rodata.
This makes is_kernel_rodata() exactly cover the read-only region, as
well as other things using __end_rodata (e.g., kernel/dma/debug.c).

Currently __init_begin is used as the boundary for strict RWX between
executable/read-only text and data, and non-executable (after boot) code
and data.
But that's a little subtle, so add an explicit symbol to document that
the SRWX boundary lies there, and add a comment making it clear that
__init_begin must also begin there.

When ld detects unaligned relocations, it emits R_PPC64_UADDR64
relocations instead of R_PPC64_RELATIVE. Currently R_PPC64_UADDR64 are
detected by arch/powerpc/tools/relocs_check.sh and expected not to work.
Below is a simple chunk to trigger this behaviour (this disables
optimization for the demonstration purposes only, this also happens with
-O1/-O2 when CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y, for example):
\#pragma GCC push_options
\#pragma GCC optimize ("O0")
struct entry {
const char *file;
int line;
} __attribute__((packed));
static const struct entry e1 = { .file = __FILE__, .line = __LINE__ };
static const struct entry e2 = { .file = __FILE__, .line = __LINE__ };
...
prom_printf("e1=%s %lx %lx\n", e1.file, (unsigned long) e1.file, mfmsr());
prom_printf("e2=%s %lx\n", e2.file, (unsigned long) e2.file);
\#pragma GCC pop_options
This adds support for UADDR64 for 64bit. This reuses __dynamic_symtab
from the 32bit code which supports more relocation types already.
Because RELACOUNT includes only R_PPC64_RELATIVE, this replaces it with
RELASZ which is the size of all relocation records.

This patch future-proofs the kernel against linker changes that might
put the toc pointer at some location other than .got+0x8000, by
replacing __toc_start+0x8000 with .TOC. throughout. If the kernel's
idea of the toc pointer doesn't agree with the linker, bad things
happen.
prom_init.c code relocating its toc is also changed so that a symbolic
__prom_init_toc_start toc-pointer relative address is calculated
rather than assuming that it is always at toc-pointer - 0x8000. The
length calculations loading values from the toc are also avoided.
It's a little incestuous to do that with unreloc_toc picking up
adjusted values (which is fine in practice, they both adjust by the
same amount if all goes well).
I've also changed the way .got is aligned in vmlinux.lds and
zImage.lds, mostly so that dumping out section info by objdump or
readelf plainly shows the alignment is 256. This linker script
feature was added 2005-09-27, available in FSF binutils releases from
2.17 onwards. Should be safe to use in the kernel, I think.
Finally, put *(.got) before the prom_init.o entry which only needs
*(.toc), so that the GOT header goes in the correct place. I don't
believe this makes any difference for the kernel as it would for
dynamic objects being loaded by ld.so. That change is just to stop
lusers who blindly copy kernel scripts being led astray. Of course,
this change needs the prom_init.c changes.
Some notes on .toc and .got.
.toc is a compiler generated section of addresses. .got is a linker
generated section of addresses, generally built when the linker sees
R_*_*GOT* relocations. In the case of powerpc64 ld.bfd, there are
multiple generated .got sections, one per input object file. So you
can somewhat reasonably write in a linker script an input section
statement like *prom_init.o(.got .toc) to mean "the .got and .toc
section for files matching *prom_init.o". On other architectures that
doesn't make sense, because the linker generally has just one .got
section. Even on powerpc64, note well that the GOT entries for
prom_init.o may be merged with GOT entries from other objects. That
means that if prom_init.o references, say, _end via some GOT
relocation, and some other object also references _end via a GOT
relocation, the GOT entry for _end may be in the range
__prom_init_toc_start to __prom_init_toc_end and if the kernel does
something special to GOT/TOC entries in that range then the value of
_end as seen by objects other than prom_init.o will be affected. On
the other hand the GOT entry for _end may not be in the range
__prom_init_toc_start to __prom_init_toc_end. Which way it turns out
is deterministic but a detail of linker operation that should not be
relied on.
A feature of ld.bfd is that input .toc (and .got) sections matching
one linker input section statement may be sorted, to put entries used
by small-model code first, near the toc base. This is why scripts for
powerpc64 normally use *(.got .toc) rather than *(.got) *(.toc), since
the first form allows more freedom to sort.
Another feature of ld.bfd is that indirect addressing sequences using
the GOT/TOC may be edited by the linker to relative addressing. In
many cases relative addressing would be emitted by gcc for
-mcmodel=medium if you appropriately decorate variable declarations
with non-default visibility.

Commit 9d1988ca87 ("powerpc/64: treat low kernel text as irqs
soft-masked") ends up catching too much code, including ret_from_fork,
and parts of interrupt and syscall return that do not expect to be
interrupts to be soft-masked. If an interrupt gets marked pending,
and then the code proceeds out of the implicit soft-masked region it
will fail to deal with the pending interrupt.
Fix this by adding a new table of addresses which explicitly marks
the regions of code that are soft masked. This table is only checked
for interrupts that below __end_soft_masked, so most kernel interrupts
will not have the overhead of the table search.

The exception table fixup adjusts a failed page fault's interrupt return
location if it was taken at an address specified in the exception table,
to a corresponding fixup handler address.
Introduce a variation of that idea which adds a fixup table for NMIs and
soft-masked asynchronous interrupts. This will be used to protect
certain critical sections that are sensitive to being clobbered by
interrupts coming in (due to using the same SPRs and/or irq soft-mask
state).

The L1D flush fallback functions are not recoverable vs interrupts,
yet the scv entry flush runs with MSR[EE]=1. This can result in a
timer (soft-NMI) or MCE or SRESET interrupt hitting here and overwriting

scv return.
Fix this by disabling RI and EE for the scv entry fallback flush.

This is a bug that causes early crashes in builds with an .exit.text
section smaller than a page and an .init.text section that ends in the
beginning of a physical page (this is kinda random, which might
explain why this wasn't really encountered before).
The init sections are ordered like this:
.init.text
.exit.text
.init.data
Currently, these sections aren't page aligned.
Because the init code might become read-only at runtime and because
the .init.text section can potentially reside on the same physical
page as .init.data, the beginning of .init.data might be mapped
read-only along with .init.text.
Then when the kernel tries to modify a variable in .init.data (like
kthreadd_done, used in kernel_init()) the kernel panics.
To avoid this, make _einittext page aligned and also align .exit.text
to make sure .init.data is always seperated from the text segments.

Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected
against instrumentation for various reasons:
- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.
Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling
that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark
functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check
later.
Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end()
These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls
into regular instrumentable text section as safe.
The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is
enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging
the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a
kernel compiled with this option.

Simplify gen_btf logic to make it work with llvm-objcopy. The existing
'file format' and 'architecture' parsing logic is brittle and does not
work with llvm-objcopy/llvm-objdump.
'file format' output of llvm-objdump>=11 will match GNU objdump, but
'architecture' (bfdarch) may not.
.BTF in .tmp_vmlinux.btf is non-SHF_ALLOC. Add the SHF_ALLOC flag
because it is part of vmlinux image used for introspection. C code
can reference the section via linker script defined __start_BTF and
__stop_BTF. This fixes a small problem that previous .BTF had the
SHF_WRITE flag (objcopy -I binary -O elf* synthesized .data).
Additionally, `objcopy -I binary` synthesized symbols
_binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_start and _binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_stop (not
used elsewhere) are replaced with more commonplace __start_BTF and
__stop_BTF.
Add 2>/dev/null because GNU objcopy (but not llvm-objcopy) warns
"empty loadable segment detected at vaddr=0xffffffff81000000, is this intentional?"
We use a dd command to change the e_type field in the ELF header from
ET_EXEC to ET_REL so that lld will accept .btf.vmlinux.bin.o. Accepting
ET_EXEC as an input file is an extremely rare GNU ld feature that lld
does not intend to support, because this is error-prone.
The output section description .BTF in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h
avoids potential subtle orphan section placement issues and suppresses
--orphan-handling=warn warnings.

The Program Header identifiers are internal to the linker scripts. In
preparation for moving the NOTES segment declaration into RO_DATA,
standardize the identifier for the PT_NOTE entry to "note" as used by
all other architectures that emit PT_NOTE.
Note that there was discussion about changing all architectures to use
"notes" instead, but I prefer to avoid that at this time. Changing only
powerpc is the smallest change to standardize the entire kernel. And
while this standardization does use singular "note" for a section that
has more than one note in it, this is just an internal identifier. It
matches the ELF "PT_NOTE", and is 4 characters (like "text", and "data")
for pretty alignment. The more exposed macro, "NOTES", use the more
sensible plural wording.
