The text section stays in memory without ever leaving. With the exception of modules, but modules know how to handle that case. With the dynamic ftrace tracer, we need to make sure that it does not try to modify code that no longer exists. The only safe section is .text. This patch changes the recordmcount script to only record the mcount calls in the .text sections. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

# recordmcount.pl - makes a section called __mcount_loc that holds
|
|
# all the offsets to the calls to mcount.
|
|
#
|
|
#
|
|
# What we want to end up with is a section in vmlinux called
|
|
# __mcount_loc that contains a list of pointers to all the
|
|
# call sites in the kernel that call mcount. Later on boot up, the kernel
|
|
# will read this list, save the locations and turn them into nops.
|
|
# When tracing or profiling is later enabled, these locations will then
|
|
# be converted back to pointers to some function.
|
|
#
|
|
# This is no easy feat. This script is called just after the original
|
|
# object is compiled and before it is linked.
|
|
#
|
|
# The references to the call sites are offsets from the section of text
|
|
# that the call site is in. Hence, all functions in a section that
|
|
# has a call site to mcount, will have the offset from the beginning of
|
|
# the section and not the beginning of the function.
|
|
#
|
|
# The trick is to find a way to record the beginning of the section.
|
|
# The way we do this is to look at the first function in the section
|
|
# which will also be the location of that section after final link.
|
|
# e.g.
|
|
#
|
|
# .section ".text.sched"
|
|
# .globl my_func
|
|
# my_func:
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# call mcount (offset: 0x5)
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# ret
|
|
# other_func:
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# call mcount (offset: 0x1b)
|
|
# [...]
|
|
#
|
|
# Both relocation offsets for the mcounts in the above example will be
|
|
# offset from .text.sched. If we make another file called tmp.s with:
|
|
#
|
|
# .section __mcount_loc
|
|
# .quad my_func + 0x5
|
|
# .quad my_func + 0x1b
|
|
#
|
|
# We can then compile this tmp.s into tmp.o, and link it to the original
|
|
# object.
|
|
#
|
|
# But this gets hard if my_func is not globl (a static function).
|
|
# In such a case we have:
|
|
#
|
|
# .section ".text.sched"
|
|
# my_func:
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# call mcount (offset: 0x5)
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# ret
|
|
# .globl my_func
|
|
# other_func:
|
|
# [...]
|
|
# call mcount (offset: 0x1b)
|
|
# [...]
|
|
#
|
|
# If we make the tmp.s the same as above, when we link together with
|
|
# the original object, we will end up with two symbols for my_func:
|
|
# one local, one global. After final compile, we will end up with
|
|
# an undefined reference to my_func.
|
|
#
|
|
# Since local objects can reference local variables, we need to find
|
|
# a way to make tmp.o reference the local objects of the original object
|
|
# file after it is linked together. To do this, we convert the my_func
|
|
# into a global symbol before linking tmp.o. Then after we link tmp.o
|
|
# we will only have a single symbol for my_func that is global.
|
|
# We can convert my_func back into a local symbol and we are done.
|
|
#
|
|
# Here are the steps we take:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1) Record all the local symbols by using 'nm'
|
|
# 2) Use objdump to find all the call site offsets and sections for
|
|
# mcount.
|
|
# 3) Compile the list into its own object.
|
|
# 4) Do we have to deal with local functions? If not, go to step 8.
|
|
# 5) Make an object that converts these local functions to global symbols
|
|
# with objcopy.
|
|
# 6) Link together this new object with the list object.
|
|
# 7) Convert the local functions back to local symbols and rename
|
|
# the result as the original object.
|
|
# End.
|
|
# 8) Link the object with the list object.
|
|
# 9) Move the result back to the original object.
|
|
# End.
