      powerpc/imc-pmu: Fix use of mutex in IRQs disabled section · 76d588dd
      Kajol Jain authored 
      Current imc-pmu code triggers a WARNING with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING enabled, while running a thread_imc event.

Command to trigger the warning:

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 5':

The above warning triggered because the current imc-pmu code uses mutex
lock in interrupt disabled sections. The function mutex_lock()
internally calls __might_resched(), which will check if IRQs are
disabled and in case IRQs are disabled, it will trigger the warning.

Fix the issue by changing the mutex lock to spinlock.

      powerpc/boot: Fix incorrect version calculation issue in ld_version · 3287ebd7
      Ojaswin Mujoo authored 
      The ld_version() function computes the wrong version value for certain
ld versions such as the following:

  $ ld --version
  GNU ld (GNU Binutils; SUSE Linux Enterprise 15)
  2.37.20211103-150100.7.37

For input 2.37.20211103, the value computed is 202348030000 which is
higher than the value for a later version like 2.39.0, which is
23900000.

This issue was highlighted because with the above ld version, the
powerpc kernel build started failing with ld error: "unrecognized option
--no-warn-rwx-segments". This was caused due to the recent commit
579aee9f ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker
versions") which added the --no-warn-rwx-segments linker flag if the ld
version is greater than 2.39.

Due to the bug in ld_version(), ld version 2.37.20111103 is wrongly
calculated to be greater than 2.39 and the unsupported flag is added.

To fix it, if version is of the form x.y.z and length(z) == 8, then most
probably it is a date [yyyymmdd] commonly used for release snapshots and
not an actual new version. Hence, ignore the date part replacing it with
0.

      powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Don't discard .comment · be5f95c8
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Although the powerpc linker script mentions .comment in the DISCARD
section, that has never actually caused it to be discarded, because the
earlier ELF_DETAILS macro (previously STABS_DEBUG) explicitly includes
.comment.

However commit 99cb0d91 ("arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and
riscv") introduced an earlier use of DISCARD as part of the RO_DATA
macro. With binutils < 2.36 that causes the DISCARD directives later in
the script to be applied earlier, causing .comment to actually be
discarded.

It's confusing to explicitly include and discard .comment, and even more
so if the behaviour depends on the toolchain version. So don't discard
.comment in order to maintain the existing behaviour in all cases.

      powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Don't discard .rela* for relocatable builds · 07b050f9
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Relocatable kernels must not discard relocations, they need to be
processed at runtime. As such they are included for CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
builds in the powerpc linker script (line 340).

However they are also unconditionally discarded later in the
script (line 414). Previously that worked because the earlier inclusion
superseded the discard.

However commit 99cb0d91 ("arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and
riscv") introduced an earlier use of DISCARD as part of the RO_DATA
macro (line 137). With binutils < 2.36 that causes the DISCARD
directives later in the script to be applied earlier, causing .rela* to
actually be discarded at link time, leading to build warnings and a
kernel that doesn't boot:

  ld: warning: discarding dynamic section .rela.init.rodata

Fix it by conditionally discarding .rela* only when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
is disabled.

      powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT · 4b9880db
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      The powerpc linker script explicitly includes .exit.text, because
otherwise the link fails due to references from __bug_table and
__ex_table. The code is freed (discarded) at runtime along with
.init.text and data.

That has worked in the past despite powerpc not defining
RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT because DISCARDS appears late in the powerpc linker
script (line 410), and the explicit inclusion of .exit.text
earlier (line 280) supersedes the discard.

However commit 99cb0d91 ("arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and
riscv") introduced an earlier use of DISCARD as part of the RO_DATA
macro (line 136). With binutils < 2.36 that causes the DISCARD
directives later in the script to be applied earlier [1], causing
.exit.text to actually be discarded at link time, leading to build
errors:

  '.exit.text' referenced in section '__bug_table' of crypto/algboss.o: defined in
  discarded section '.exit.text' of crypto/algboss.o
  '.exit.text' referenced in section '__ex_table' of drivers/nvdimm/core.o: defined in
  discarded section '.exit.text' of drivers/nvdimm/core.o

Fix it by defining RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT, which causes the generic
DISCARDS macro to not include .exit.text at all.
