recordmcount: support >64k sections

When compiling a kernel with Clang and LTO, we need to run
recordmcount on vmlinux.o with a large number of sections, which
currently fails as the program doesn't understand extended
section indexes. This change adds support for processing binaries
with >64k sections.

recordmcount: Fix nop_mcount() function

The removal of the longjmp code in recordmcount.c mistakenly made the return
of make_nop() being negative an exit of nop_mcount(). It should not exit the
routine, but instead just not process that part of the code. By exiting with
an error code, it would cause the update of recordmcount to fail some files
which would fail the build if ftrace function tracing was enabled.

recordmcount: Remove redundant cleanup() calls

Redundant cleanup calls were introduced when transitioning from
the old error/success handling via setjmp/longjmp -- the longjmp
ensured the cleanup() call only happened once but replacing
the success_file()/fail_file() calls with cleanup() meant that
multiple cleanup() calls can happen as we return from function
calls.

In do_file(), looking just before and after the "goto out" jumps we
can see that multiple cleanups() are being performed. We remove
cleanup() calls from the nested functions because it makes the code
easier to review -- the resources being cleaned up are generally
allocated and initialized in the callers so freeing them there
makes more sense.

Other redundant cleanup() calls:

mmap_file() is only called from do_file() and, if mmap_file() fails,
then we goto out and do cleanup() there too.

write_file() is only called from do_file() and do_file()
calls cleanup() unconditionally after returning from write_file()
therefore the cleanup() calls in write_file() are not necessary.

find_secsym_ndx(), called from do_func()'s for-loop, when we are
cleaning up here it's obvious that we break out of the loop and
do another cleanup().

__has_rel_mcount() is called from two parts of do_func()
and calls cleanup(). In theory we move them into do_func(), however
these in turn prove redundant so another simplification step
removes them as well.

recordmcount: Rewrite error/success handling

Recordmcount uses setjmp/longjmp to manage control flow as
it reads and then writes the ELF file. This unusual control
flow is hard to follow and check in addition to being unlike
kernel coding style.

So we rewrite these paths to use regular return values to
indicate error/success. When an error or previously-completed object
file is found we return an error code following kernel
coding conventions -- negative error values and 0 for success when
we're not returning a pointer. We return NULL for those that fail
and return non-NULL pointers otherwise.

One oddity is already_has_rel_mcount -- there we use pointer comparison
rather than string comparison to differentiate between
previously-processed object files and returning the name of a text
section.

recordmcount: Remove unused fd from uwrite() and ulseek()

uwrite() works within the pseudo-mapping and extends it as necessary
without needing the file descriptor (fd) parameter passed to it.
Similarly, ulseek() doesn't need its fd parameter. These parameters
were only added because the functions bear a conceptual resemblance
to write() and lseek(). Worse, they obscure the fact that at the time
uwrite() and ulseek() are called fd_map is not a valid file descriptor.

Remove the unused file descriptor parameters that make it look like
fd_map is still valid.

The first entry in each section is incorrect. Looking at the
relocation records, the spurious entries correspond to the
R_PPC64_ENTRY records:

<snip>

The problem is that we are not validating the return value from
get_mcountsym() in sift_rel_mcount(). With this entry, mcountsym is 0,
but Elf_r_sym(relp) also ends up being 0. Fix this by ensuring
mcountsym is valid before processing the entry.

recordmcount/MIPS: Fix possible incorrect mcount_loc table entries in modules

On MIPS calls to _mcount in modules generate 2 instructions to load
the _mcount address (and therefore 2 relocations). The mcount_loc
table should only reference the first of these, so the second is
filtered out by checking the relocation offset and ignoring ones that
immediately follow the previous one seen.

However if a module has an _mcount call at offset 0, the second
relocation would not be filtered out due to old_r_offset == 0
being taken to mean that the current relocation is the first one
seen, and both would end up in the mcount_loc table.

This results in ftrace_make_nop() patching both (adjacent)
instructions to branches over the _mcount call sequence like so:

0xffffffffc08a8000: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8014
0xffffffffc08a8004: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8018
0xffffffffc08a8008: 2d 08 e0 03 move at,ra
...

The second branch is in the delay slot of the first, which is
defined to be unpredictable - on the platform on which this bug was
encountered, it triggers a reserved instruction exception.

Fix by initializing old_r_offset to ~0 and using that instead of 0
to determine whether the current relocation is the first seen.

recordmcount: Fix handling of elf64 big-endian objects.

In ELF64, the sh_flags field is 64-bits wide. recordmcount was
erroneously treating it as a 32-bit wide field. For little endian
objects this works because the flags of interest (SHF_EXECINSTR)
reside in the lower 32 bits of the word, and you get the same result
with either a 32-bit or 64-bit read. Big endian objects on the
other hand do not work at all with this error.

The fix: Correctly treat sh_flags as 64-bits wide in elf64 objects.

The symptom I observed was that my
__start_mcount_loc..__stop_mcount_loc was empty even though ftrace
function tracing was enabled.

ftrace/recordmcount: Avoid STT_FUNC symbols as base on ARM

While find_secsym_ndx often finds the unamed local STT_SECTION, if a
section has only one function in it, the ARM toolchain generates the
STT_FUNC symbol before the STT_SECTION, and recordmcount finds this
instead.

This is problematic on ARM because in ARM ELFs, "if a [STT_FUNC] symbol
addresses a Thumb instruction, its value is the address of the
instruction with bit zero set (in a relocatable object, the section
offset with bit zero set)". This leads to incorrect mcount addresses
being recorded.

Fix this by not using STT_FUNC symbols as the base on ARM.

ftrace/recordmcount: Add warning logic to warn on mcount not recorded

There's some sections that should not have mcount recorded and should not have
modifications to the that code. But currently they waste some time by calling
mcount anyway (which simply returns). As the real answer should be to
either whitelist the section or have gcc ignore it fully.

This change adds a option to recordmcount to warn when it finds a section
that is ignored by ftrace but still contains mcount callers. This is not on
by default as developers may not know if the section should be completely
ignored or added to the whitelist.

ftrace/recordmcount: Make ignored mcount calls into nops at compile time

There are sections that are ignored by ftrace for the function tracing because
the text is in a section that can be removed without notice. The mcount calls
in these sections are ignored and ftrace never sees them. The downside of this
is that the functions in these sections still call mcount. Although the mcount
function is defined in assembly simply as a return, this added overhead is
unnecessary.

The solution is to convert these callers into nops at compile time.
A better solution is to add 'notrace' to the section markers, but as new sections
come up all the time, it would be nice that they are delt with when they
are created.

Later patches will deal with finding these sections and doing the proper solution.

Thanks to H. Peter Anvin for giving me the right nops to use for x86.
