Revision be0f272bfc83797f70d44faca86954df62e2bbc0 authored by Ard Biesheuvel on 20 November 2017, 17:41:30 UTC, committed by Will Deacon on 01 December 2017, 13:04:59 UTC
When building the arm64 kernel with both CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS and
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE enabled, the ftrace-mod.o object file is built
with the kernel and contains a trampoline that is linked into each
module, so that modules can be loaded far away from the kernel and
still reach the ftrace entry point in the core kernel with an ordinary
relative branch, as is emitted by the compiler instrumentation code
dynamic ftrace relies on.

In order to be able to build out of tree modules, this object file
needs to be included into the linux-headers or linux-devel packages,
which is undesirable, as it makes arm64 a special case (although a
precedent does exist for 32-bit PPC).

Given that the trampoline essentially consists of a PLT entry, let's
not bother with a source or object file for it, and simply patch it
in whenever the trampoline is being populated, using the existing
PLT support routines.

# Stage one of module building created the following:
# a) The individual .o files used for the module
# b) A <module>.o file which is the .o files above linked together
# c) A <module>.mod file in $(MODVERDIR)/, listing the name of the
#    the preliminary <module>.o file, plus all .o files

# Stage 2 is handled by this file and does the following
# 1) Find all modules from the files listed in $(MODVERDIR)/
# 2) modpost is then used to
# 3)  create one <module>.mod.c file pr. module
# 4)  create one Module.symvers file with CRC for all exported symbols
# 5) compile all <module>.mod.c files
# 6) final link of the module to a <module.ko> file

# Step 3 is used to place certain information in the module's ELF
# section, including information such as:
#   Version magic (see include/linux/vermagic.h for full details)
#     - Kernel release
#     - SMP is CONFIG_SMP
#     - PREEMPT is CONFIG_PREEMPT
#     - GCC Version
#   Module info
#     - Module version (MODULE_VERSION)
#     - Module alias'es (MODULE_ALIAS)
#     - Module license (MODULE_LICENSE)
#     - See include/linux/module.h for more details

# Step 4 is solely used to allow module versioning in external modules,
# where the CRC of each module is retrieved from the Module.symvers file.

# KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN can be set to avoid error out in case of undefined
# symbols in the final module linking stage
# KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL can be set to skip the final link of modules.
# This is solely useful to speed up test compiles
