[PATCH v3 3/9] livepatch: Add klp-convert tool

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

 



From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx>

Livepatches may use symbols which are not contained in its own scope,
and, because of that, may end up compiled with relocations that will
only be resolved during module load. Yet, when the referenced symbols
are not exported, solving this relocation requires information on the
object that holds the symbol (either vmlinux or modules) and its
position inside the object, as an object may contain multiple symbols
with the same name. Providing such information must be done
accordingly to what is specified in
Documentation/livepatch/module-elf-format.txt.

Currently, there is no trivial way to embed the required information
as requested in the final livepatch elf object. klp-convert solves
this problem in two different forms: (i) by relying on Symbols.list,
which is built during kernel compilation, to automatically infer the
relocation targeted symbol, and, when such inference is not possible
(ii) by using annotations in the elf object to convert the relocation
accordingly to the specification, enabling it to be handled by the
livepatch loader.

Given the above, create scripts/livepatch to hold tools developed for
livepatches and add source files for klp-convert there.

The core file of klp-convert is scripts/livepatch/klp-convert.c, which
implements the heuristics used to solve the relocations and the
conversion of unresolved symbols into the expected format, as defined
in [1].

klp-convert receives as arguments the Symbols.list file, an input
livepatch module to be converted and the output name for the converted
livepatch. When it starts running, klp-convert parses Symbols.list and
builds two internal lists of symbols, one containing the exported and
another containing the non-exported symbols. Then, by parsing the rela
sections in the elf object, klp-convert identifies which symbols must
be converted, which are those unresolved and that do not have a
corresponding exported symbol, and attempts to convert them
accordingly to the specification.

By using Symbols.list, klp-convert identifies which symbols have names
that only appear in a single kernel object, thus being capable of
resolving these cases without the intervention of the developer. When
various homonymous symbols exist through kernel objects, it is not
possible to infer the right one, thus klp-convert falls back into
using developer annotations. If these were not provided, then the tool
will print a list with all acceptable targets for the symbol being
processed.

Annotations in the context of klp-convert are accessible as struct
klp_module_reloc entries in sections named
.klp.module_relocs.<objname>. These entries are pairs of symbol
references and positions which are to be resolved against definitions
in <objname>.

Define the structure klp_module_reloc in
include/linux/uapi/livepatch.h allowing developers to annotate the
livepatch source code with it.

klp-convert relies on libelf and on a list implementation. Add files
scripts/livepatch/elf.c and scripts/livepatch/elf.h, which are a
libelf interfacing layer and scripts/livepatch/list.h, which is a
list implementation.

Update Makefiles to correctly support the compilation of the new tool,
update MAINTAINERS file and add a .gitignore file.
