Subject: [PATCH v6 00/29] Warn on orphan section placement

Hi Ingo,

Based on my testing, this is ready to go. I've reviewed the feedback on
v5 and made a few small changes, noted below.


https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git/log/?h=linker/orphans/warn/v6

v6:
- rebase to -tip x86/boot
- remove 0-sized NOLOAD
- move .got.plt to end with INFO (NOLOAD warns)
- add Reviewed-bys
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200731230820.1742553-1-keescook@chromium.org/
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200629061840.4065483-1-keescook@chromium.org/

A recent bug[1] was solved for builds linked with ld.lld, and tracking
it down took way longer than it needed to (a year). Ultimately, it
boiled down to differences between ld.bfd and ld.lld's handling of
orphan sections. Similar situation have continued to recur, and it's
clear the kernel build needs to be much more explicit about linker
sections. Similarly, the recent FGKASLR series brought up orphan section
handling too[2]. In all cases, it would have been nice if the linker was
running with --orphan-handling=warn so that surprise sections wouldn't
silently get mapped into the kernel image at locations up to the whim
of the linker's orphan handling logic. Instead, all desired sections
should be explicitly identified in the linker script (to be either kept,
discarded, or verified to be zero-sized) with any orphans throwing a
warning. The powerpc architecture has actually been doing this for some
time, so this series just extends that coverage to x86, arm, and arm64.

This has gotten sucecssful build testing under the following matrix:

compiler/linker: gcc+ld.bfd, clang+ld.lld
targets: defconfig, allmodconfig
architectures: x86, i386, arm64, arm
versions: -tip x86/boot

All three architectures depend on the first several commits to
vmlinux.lds.h. x86 depends on Arvind's GOT series (in -tip x86/boot now).
arm64 depends on the efi/libstub patch. As such, I'd like to land this
series as a whole. Ingo has suggested he'd take it into -tip.

Thanks!

-Kees
