x86/boot: Split off PE/COFF .data section

commit 34951f3c28bdf6481d949a20413b2ce7693687b2 upstream.

Describe the code and data of the decompressor binary using separate
.text and .data PE/COFF sections, so that we will be able to map them
using restricted permissions once we increase the section and file
alignment sufficiently. This avoids the need for memory mappings that
are writable and executable at the same time, which is something that
is best avoided for security reasons.

x86/boot: Derive file size from _edata symbol

x86/boot: Derive file size from _edata symbol

commit aeb92067f6ae994b541d7f9752fe54ed3d108bcc upstream.

Tweak the linker script so that the value of _edata represents the
decompressor binary's file size rounded up to the appropriate alignment.
This removes the need to calculate it in the build tool, and will make
it easier to refer to the file size from the header directly in
subsequent changes to the PE header layout.

While adding _edata to the sed regex that parses the compressed
vmlinux's symbol list, tweak the regex a bit for conciseness.

This change has no impact on the resulting bzImage binary when
configured with CONFIG_EFI_STUB=y.

actually uses the value anywhere. So remove this code.

While discussing to change the visibility of X86_FEATURE_NAMES (see Link)
in order to remove CONFIG_EMBEDDED, Boris suggested to simply make the
X86_FEATURE_NAMES functionality unconditional.

As the need for really tiny kernel images has gone away and kernel images
with !X86_FEATURE_NAMES are hardly tested, remove this config and the whole
ifdeffery in the source code.

x86: kmsan: disable instrumentation of unsupported code

Instrumenting some files with KMSAN will result in kernel being unable to
link, boot or crashing at runtime for various reasons (e.g. infinite
recursion caused by instrumentation hooks calling instrumented code
again).

Completely omit KMSAN instrumentation in the following places:
- arch/x86/boot and arch/x86/realmode/rm, as KMSAN doesn't work for i386;
- arch/x86/entry/vdso, which isn't linked with KMSAN runtime;
- three files in arch/x86/kernel - boot problems;
- arch/x86/mm/cpu_entry_area.c - recursion.

x86: link vdso and boot with -z noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments

Users of GNU ld (BFD) from binutils 2.39+ will observe multiple
instances of a new warning when linking kernels in the form:

ld: warning: arch/x86/boot/pmjump.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
ld: warning: arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions

Generally, we would like to avoid the stack being executable. Because
there could be a need for the stack to be executable, assembler sources
have to opt-in to this security feature via explicit creation of the
.note.GNU-stack feature (which compilers create by default) or command
line flag --noexecstack. Or we can simply tell the linker the
production of such sections is irrelevant and to link the stack as
--noexecstack.

LLVM's LLD linker defaults to -z noexecstack, so this flag isn't
strictly necessary when linking with LLD, only BFD, but it doesn't hurt
to be explicit here for all linkers IMO. --no-warn-rwx-segments is
currently BFD specific and only available in the current latest release,
so it's wrapped in an ld-option check.

While the kernel makes extensive usage of ELF sections, it doesn't use
permissions from ELF segments.

x86/boot: Modernize genimage script; hdimage+EFI support

The image generation scripts in arch/x86/boot are pretty out of date,
except for the isoimage target. Update and clean up the
genimage.sh script, and make it support an arbitrary number of
initramfs files in the image.

Add a "hdimage" target, which can be booted by either BIOS or
EFI (if the kernel is compiled with the EFI stub.) For EFI to be able
to pass the command line to the kernel, we need the EFI shell, but the
firmware builtin EFI shell, if it even exists, is pretty much always
the last resort boot option, so search for OVMF or EDK2 and explicitly
include a copy of the EFI shell.

To make this all work, use bash features in the script. Furthermore,
this version of the script makes use of some mtools features,
especially mpartition, that might not exist in very old version of
mtools, but given all the other dependencies on this script this
doesn't seem such a big deal.

Finally, put a volume label ("LINUX_BOOT") on all generated images.

bzlilo is an installation target because it copies files to
$(INSTALL_PATH)/, then runs 'lilo'. However, arch/x86/Makefile and
arch/x86/boot/Makefile have it depend on vmlinux and $(obj)/bzImage,
respectively.

'make bzlilo' may update some build artifacts in the source tree.

As commit

19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux")

explained, this should not happen.

Make 'bzlilo' not depend on any build artifact.

x86/*/Makefile: Use -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to suppress .eh_frame sections

While discussing a patch to discard .eh_frame from the compressed
vmlinux using the linker script, Fangrui Song pointed out [1] that these
sections shouldn't exist in the first place because arch/x86/Makefile
uses -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables.

It turns out this is because the Makefiles used to build the compressed
kernel redefine KBUILD_CFLAGS, dropping this flag.

Add the flag to the Makefile for the compressed kernel, as well as the
EFI stub Makefile to fix this.

Also add the flag to boot/Makefile and realmode/rm/Makefile so that the
kernel's boot code (boot/setup.elf) and realmode trampoline
(realmode/rm/realmode.elf) won't be compiled with .eh_frame sections,
since their linker scripts also just discard them.

efi/x86: Add true mixed mode entry point into .compat section

Currently, mixed mode is closely tied to the EFI handover protocol
and relies on intimate knowledge of the bootparams structure, setup
header etc, all of which are rather byzantine and entirely specific
to x86.

Even though no other EFI supported architectures are currently known
that could support something like mixed mode, it still makes sense to
abstract a bit from this, and make it part of a generic Linux on EFI
boot protocol.

To that end, add a .compat section to the mixed mode binary, and populate
it with the PE machine type and entry point address, allowing firmware
implementations to match it to their native machine type, and invoke
non-native binaries using a secondary entry point.

kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.

It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.

This commit renames like follows:

always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs

So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:

always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)

I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.

The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

x86/boot/compressed: Relax sed symbol type regex for LLVM ld.lld

The final build stage of the x86 kernel captures some symbol
addresses from the decompressor binary and copies them into zoffset.h.
It uses sed with a regular expression that matches the address, symbol
type and symbol name, and mangles the captured addresses and the names
of symbols of interest into #define directives that are added to
zoffset.h

The symbol type is indicated by a single letter, which we match
strictly: only letters in the set 'ABCDGRSTVW' are matched, even
though the actual symbol type is relevant and therefore ignored.

Commit bc7c9d620 ("efi/libstub/x86: Force 'hidden' visibility for
extern declarations") made a change to the way external symbol
references are classified, resulting in 'startup_32' now being
emitted as a hidden symbol. This prevents the use of GOT entries to
refer to this symbol via its absolute address, which recent toolchains
(including Clang based ones) already avoid by default, making this
change a no-op in the majority of cases.

However, as it turns out, the LLVM linker classifies such hidden
symbols as symbols with static linkage in fully linked ELF binaries,
causing tools such as NM to output a lowercase 't' rather than an upper
case 'T' for the type of such symbols. Since our sed expression only
matches upper case letters for the symbol type, the line describing
startup_32 is disregarded, resulting in a build error like the following

arch/x86/boot/header.S:568:18: error: symbol 'ZO_startup_32' can not be
undefined in a subtraction expression
init_size: .long (0x00000000008fd000 - ZO_startup_32 +
(((0x0000000001f6361c + ((0x0000000001f6361c >> 8) + 65536)
- 0x00000000008c32e5) + 4095) & ~4095)) # kernel initialization size

Given that we are only interested in the value of the symbol, let's match
any character in the set 'a-zA-Z' instead.

x86/boot: Introduce kernel_info

The relationships between the headers are analogous to the various data
sections:

setup_header = .data
boot_params/setup_data = .bss

What is missing from the above list? That's right:

kernel_info = .rodata

We have been (ab)using .data for things that could go into .rodata or .bss for
a long time, for lack of alternatives and -- especially early on -- inertia.
Also, the BIOS stub is responsible for creating boot_params, so it isn't
available to a BIOS-based loader (setup_data is, though).

setup_header is permanently limited to 144 bytes due to the reach of the
2-byte jump field, which doubles as a length field for the structure, combined
with the size of the "hole" in struct boot_params that a protected-mode loader
or the BIOS stub has to copy it into. It is currently 119 bytes long, which
leaves us with 25 very precious bytes. This isn't something that can be fixed
without revising the boot protocol entirely, breaking backwards compatibility.

boot_params proper is limited to 4096 bytes, but can be arbitrarily extended
by adding setup_data entries. It cannot be used to communicate properties of
the kernel image, because it is .bss and has no image-provided content.

kernel_info solves this by providing an extensible place for information about
the kernel image. It is readonly, because the kernel cannot rely on a
bootloader copying its contents anywhere, but that is OK; if it becomes
necessary it can still contain data items that an enabled bootloader would be
expected to copy into a setup_data chunk.

Do not bump setup_header version in arch/x86/boot/header.S because it
will be followed by additional changes coming into the Linux/x86 boot
protocol.

arch/x86/boot: Use prefix map to avoid embedded paths

It was observed that the kernel embeds the absolute build path in the
x86 boot image when the __FILE__ macro is expanded.

> From https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13458:

If you turn on the buildpaths QA test, or try a reproducible build, you
discover that the kernel image contains build paths.

$ strings bzImage-5.0.19-yocto-standard |grep tmp/
out of pgt_buf in
/data/poky-tmp/reproducible/tmp/work-shared/qemux86-64/kernel-source/arch/x86/boot/compressed/kaslr_64.c!?

But what's this in the top-level Makefile:

$ git grep prefix-map
Makefile:KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call
cc-option,-fmacro-prefix-map=$(srctree)/=)

So the __FILE__ shouldn't be using the full path. However
arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile has this:

KBUILD_CFLAGS := -m$(BITS) -O2

So that clears KBUILD_FLAGS, removing the -fmacro-prefix-map option.

Use -fmacro-prefix-map to have relative paths in the boot image too.

[ bp: Massage commit message and put the KBUILD_CFLAGS addition in
..boot/Makefile after the KBUILD_AFLAGS assignment because gas
doesn't support -fmacro-prefix-map. ]

x86/build: Specify elf_i386 linker emulation explicitly for i386 objects

The kernel uses the OUTPUT_FORMAT linker script command in it's linker
scripts. Most of the time, the -m option is passed to the linker with
correct architecture, but sometimes (at least for x86_64) the -m option
contradicts the OUTPUT_FORMAT directive.

Specifically, arch/x86/boot and arch/x86/realmode/rm produce i386 object
files, but are linked with the -m elf_x86_64 linker flag when building
for x86_64.

The GNU linker manpage doesn't explicitly state any tie-breakers between
-m and OUTPUT_FORMAT. But with BFD and Gold linkers, OUTPUT_FORMAT
overrides the emulation value specified with the -m option.

LLVM lld has a different behavior, however. When supplied with
contradicting -m and OUTPUT_FORMAT values it fails with the following
error message:

ld.lld: error: arch/x86/realmode/rm/header.o is incompatible with elf_x86_64

Therefore, just add the correct -m after the incorrect one (it overrides
it), so the linker invocation looks like this:

ld -m elf_x86_64 -z max-page-size=0x200000 -m elf_i386 --emit-relocs -T \
realmode.lds header.o trampoline_64.o stack.o reboot.o -o realmode.elf

This is not a functional change for GNU ld, because (although not
explicitly documented) OUTPUT_FORMAT overrides -m EMULATION.

Tested by building x86_64 kernel with GNU gcc/ld toolchain and booting
it in QEMU.

x86/build: Factor out fdimage/isoimage generation commands to standalone script

The build messages for fdimage/isoimage generation are pretty unstructured,
just the raw shell command blocks are printed.

Emit shortened messages similar to existing kbuild messages, and move
the Makefile commands into a separate shell script - which is much
easier to handle.

This patch factors out the commands used for fdimage/isoimage generation
from arch/x86/boot/Makefile to a new script arch/x86/boot/genimage.sh.
Then it adds the new kbuild command 'genimage' which invokes the new script.
All fdimages/isoimage files are now generated by a call to 'genimage' with
different parameters.

Now 'make isoimage' becomes:

x86/boot/build: Remove always empty $(USERINCLUDE)

Commmit b6eea87fc685:

("x86, boot: Explicitly include autoconf.h for hostprogs")

correctly noted:

[...] that because $(USERINCLUDE) isn't exported by
the top-level Makefile it's actually empty in arch/x86/boot/Makefile.

So let's do the sane thing and remove the reference to that make variable.

Kbuild: arch: look for generated headers in obtree

There are very few files that need add an -I$(obj) gcc for the preprocessor
or the assembler. For C files, we add always these for both the objtree and
srctree, but for the other ones we require the Makefile to add them, and
Kbuild then adds it for both trees.

As a preparation for changing the meaning of the -I$(obj) directive to
only refer to the srctree, this changes the two instances in arch/x86 to use
an explictit $(objtree) prefix where needed, otherwise we won't find the
headers any more, as reported by the kbuild 0day builder.
