After final linking, the vmlinux will have within .init.data the 12# list of all callers to mcount between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc. 13# Later on boot up, the kernel will read this list, save the locations and turn 14# them into nops. When tracing or profiling is later enabled, these locations 15# will then be converted back to pointers to some function. 16# 17# This is no easy feat. This script is called just after the original 18# object is compiled and before it is linked. 19# 20# When parse this object file using 'objdump', the references to the call 21# sites are offsets from the section that the call site is in. Hence, all 22# functions in a section that has a call site to mcount, will have the 23# offset from the beginning of the section and not the beginning of the 24# function. 25# 26# But where this section will reside finally in vmlinx is undetermined at 27# this point. So we can't use this kind of offsets to record the final 28# address of this call site. 29# 30# The trick is to change the call offset referring the start of a section to 31# referring a function symbol in this section. During the link step, 'ld' will 32# compute the final address according to the information we record. 33# 34# e.g. 35# 36# .section ".sched.text", "ax" 37# [...] 38# func1: 39# [...] 40# call mcount (offset: 0x10) 41# [...] 42# ret 43# .globl fun2 44# func2: (offset: 0x20) 45# [...] 46# [...] 47# ret 48# func3: 49# [...] 50# call mcount (offset: 0x30) 51# [...] 52# 53# Both relocation offsets for the mcounts in the above example will be 54# offset from .sched.text. If we choose global symbol func2 as a reference and 55# make another file called tmp.s with the new offsets: 56# 57# .section __mcount_loc 58# .quad func2 - 0x10 59# .quad func2 + 0x10 60# 61# We can then compile this tmp.s into tmp.o, and link it back to the original 62# object. 63# 64# In our algorithm, we will choose the first global function we meet in this 65# section as the reference. But this gets hard if there is no global functions 66# in this section. In such a case we have to select a local one. E.g. func1: 67# 68# .section ".sched.text", "ax" 69# func1: 70# [...] 71# call mcount (offset: 0x10) 72# [...] 73# ret 74# func2: 75# [...] 76# call mcount (offset: 0x20) 77# [...] 78# .section "other.section" 79# 80# If we make the tmp.s the same as above, when we link together with 81# the original object, we will end up with two symbols for func1: 82# one local, one global. After final compile, we will end up with 83# an undefined reference to func1 or a wrong reference to another global 84# func1 in other files. 85# 86# Since local objects can reference local variables, we need to find 87# a way to make tmp.o reference the local objects of the original object 88# file after it is linked together. To do this, we convert func1 89# into a global symbol before linking tmp.o. Then after we link tmp.o 90# we will only have a single symbol for func1 that is global. 91# We can convert func1 back into a local symbol and we are done. 92# 93# Here are the steps we take: 94# 95# 1) Record all the local and weak symbols by using 'nm' 96# 2) Use objdump to find all the call site offsets and sections for 97# mcount. 98# 3) Compile the list into its own object. 99# 4) Do we have to deal with local functions? If not, go to step 8. 100# 5) Make an object that converts these local functions to global symbols 101# with objcopy. 102# 6) Link together this new object with the list object. 103# 7) Convert the local functions back to local symbols and rename 104# the result as the original object. 105# 8) Link the object with the list object. 106# 9) Move the result back to the original object. 107# 108 109use warnings; 110use strict; 111 112my $P = $0; 113$P =~ s@.*/@@g; 114 115my $V = '0.1'; 116 117if ($#ARGV != 11) { 118 print "usage: $P arch endian bits objdump objcopy cc ld nm rm mv is_module inputfile\n"; 119 print "version: $V\n"; 120 exit(1); 121} 122 123my ($arch, $endian, $bits, $objdump, $objcopy, $cc, 124 $ld, $nm, $rm, $mv, $is_module, $inputfile) = @ARGV; 125 126# This file refers to mcount and shouldn't be ftraced, so lets' ignore it 127if ($inputfile =~ m,kernel/trace/ftrace\.o$,) { 128 exit(0); 129} 130 131# Acceptable sections to record. 132my %text_sections = ( 133 ".text" => 1, 134 ".init.text" => 1, 135 ".ref.text" => 1, 136 ".sched.text" => 1, 137 ".spinlock.text" => 1, 138 ".irqentry.text" => 1, 139 ".softirqentry.text" => 1, 140 ".kprobes.text" => 1, 141 ".cpuidle.text" => 1, 142 ".text.unlikely" => 1, 143); 144 145# Acceptable section-prefixes to record. 146my %text_section_prefixes = ( 147 ".text." => 1, 148); 149 150# Note: we are nice to C-programmers here, thus we skip the '||='-idiom. 151$objdump = 'objdump' if (!$objdump); 152$objcopy = 'objcopy' if (!$objcopy); 153$cc = 'gcc' if (!$cc); 154$ld = 'ld' if (!$ld); 155$nm = 'nm' if (!$nm); 156$rm = 'rm' if (!$rm); 157$mv = 'mv' if (!$mv); 158 159#print STDERR "running: $P '$arch' '$objdump' '$objcopy' '$cc' '$ld' " . 160# "'$nm' '$rm' '$mv' '$inputfile'\n"; 161 162my %locals; # List of local (static) functions 163my %weak; # List of weak functions 164my %convert; # List of local functions used that needs conversion 165 166my $type; 167my $local_regex; # Match a local function (return function) 168my $weak_regex; # Match a weak function (return function) 169my $section_regex; # Find the start of a section 170my $function_regex; # Find the name of a function 171 # (return offset and func name) 172my $mcount_regex; # Find the call site to mcount (return offset) 173my $mcount_adjust; # Address adjustment to mcount offset 174my $alignment; # The .align value to use for $mcount_section 175my $section_type; # Section header plus possible alignment command 176 177if ($arch =~ /(x86(_64)?)|(i386)/) { 178 if ($bits == 64) { 179 $arch = "x86_64"; 180 } else { 181 $arch = "i386"; 182 } 183} 184 185# 186# We base the defaults off of i386, the other archs may 187# feel free to change them in the below if statements. 188# 189$local_regex = "^[0-9a-fA-F]+\\s+t\\s+(\\S+)"; 190$weak_regex = "^[0-9a-fA-F]+\\s+([wW])\\s+(\\S+)"; 191$section_regex = "Disassembly of section\\s+(\\S+):"; 192$function_regex = "^([0-9a-fA-F]+)\\s+<([^^]*?)>:"; 193$mcount_regex = "^\\s*([0-9a-fA-F]+):.*\\s(mcount|__fentry__)\$"; 194$section_type = '@progbits'; 195$mcount_adjust = 0; 196$type = ".long"; 197 198if ($arch eq "x86_64") { 199 $mcount_regex = "^\\s*([0-9a-fA-F]+):.*\\s(mcount|__fentry__)([+-]0x[0-9a-zA-Z]+)?\$"; 200 $type = ".quad"; 201 $alignment = 8; 202 $mcount_adjust = -1; 203 204 # force flags for this arch 205 $ld .= " -m elf_x86_64"; 206 $objdump .= " -M x86-64"; 207 $objcopy .= " -O elf64-x86-64"; 208 $cc .= " -m64"; 209 210} elsif ($arch eq "i386") { 211 $alignment = 4; 212 $mcount_adjust = -1; 213 214 # force flags for this arch 215 $ld .= " -m elf_i386"; 216 $objdump .= " -M i386"; 217 $objcopy .= " -O elf32-i386"; 218 $cc .= " -m32"; 219 220} elsif ($arch eq "s390" && $bits == 64) { 221 if ($cc =~ /-DCC_USING_HOTPATCH/) { 222 $mcount_regex = "^\\s*([0-9a-fA-F]+):\\s*c0 04 00 00 00 00\\s*(brcl\\s*0,|jgnop\\s*)[0-9a-f]+ <([^\+]*)>\$"; 223 $mcount_adjust = 0; 224 } 225 $alignment = 8; 226 $type = ".quad"; 227 $ld .= " -m elf64_s390"; 228 $cc .= " -m64"; 229 230} elsif ($arch eq "sh") { 231 $alignment = 2; 232 233 # force flags for this arch 234 $ld .= " -m shlelf_linux"; 235 if ($endian eq "big") { 236 $objcopy .= " -O elf32-shbig-linux"; 237 } else { 238 $objcopy .= " -O elf32-sh-linux"; 239 } 240 241} elsif ($arch eq "powerpc") { 242 my $ldemulation; 243 244 $local_regex = "^[0-9a-fA-F]+\\s+t\\s+(\\.?\\S+)"; 245 # See comment in the sparc64 section for why we use '\w'. 246 $function_regex = "^([0-9a-fA-F]+)\\s+<(\\.?\\w*?)>:"; 247 $mcount_regex = "^\\s*([0-9a-fA-F]+):.*\\s\\.?_mcount\$"; 248 249 if ($endian eq "big") { 250 $cc .= " -mbig-endian "; 251 $ld .= " -EB "; 252 $ldemulation = "ppc" 253 } else { 254 $cc .= " -mlittle-endian "; 255 $ld .= " -EL "; 256 $ldemulation = "lppc" 257 } 258 if ($bits == 64) { 259 $type = ".quad"; 260 $cc .= " -m64 "; 261 $ld .= " -m elf64".$ldemulation."
