[PATCH 16/32] x86/vdso: Generate vdso{,32}-timens.lds

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As it has been discussed on timens RFC, adding a new conditional branch
`if (inside_time_ns)` on VDSO for all processes is undesirable.
It will add a penalty for everybody as branch predictor may mispredict
the jump. Also there are instruction cache lines wasted on cmp/jmp.

Those effects of introducing time namespace are very much unwanted
having in mind how much work have been spent on micro-optimisation
vdso code.

Addressing those problems, there are two versions of VDSO's .so:
for host tasks (without any penalty) and for processes inside of time
namespace with clk_to_ns() that subtracts offsets from host's time.

Unfortunately, to allow changing VDSO VMA on a running process,
the entry points to VDSO should have the same offsets (addresses).
That's needed as i.e. application that calls setns() may have already
resolved VDSO symbols in GOT/PLT.

Provide two linker scripts:
- *-timens.lds for building VDSO for processes inside time namespace
  (it has bigger functions and needs to build firstly)
- *.lds for host processes VDSO
  (it has smaller functions and entry addresses should be adjusted
  with the linker script magic to fit with entries from timens)
