[PATCH 6.2 0973/1001] riscv: ftrace: Fixup panic by disabling preemption

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

 



From: Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8547649981e6631328cd64f583667501ae385531 upstream.

In RISCV, we must use an AUIPC + JALR pair to encode an immediate,
forming a jump that jumps to an address over 4K. This may cause errors
if we want to enable kernel preemption and remove dependency from
patching code with stop_machine(). For example, if a task was switched
out on auipc. And, if we changed the ftrace function before it was
switched back, then it would jump to an address that has updated 11:0
bits mixing with previous XLEN:12 part.

p: patched area performed by dynamic ftrace
ftrace_prologue:
p|      REG_S   ra, -SZREG(sp)
p|      auipc   ra, 0x? ------------> preempted
					...
				change ftrace function
					...
p|      jalr    -?(ra) <------------- switched back
p|      REG_L   ra, -SZREG(sp)
func:
	xxx
	ret
