Subject: [PATCH v7] scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: Add alias to duplicate symbols for kallsyms
In the kernel environment, situations frequently arise where identical
names are shared among symbols within both the core image and modules.
While this doesn't pose issues for the kernel's binary itself, it
complicates trace or probe operations using tools like kprobe.
This patch introduces "kas_alias" to address this challenge.
During the kernel's build process, just before linking the vmlinux
image in the "scripts/link-vmlinux.sh", symbol name frequencies are
collected.
This collection includes both the core kernel components and modules.
Subsequently, within the same action, the nm data relative to vmlinux
is modified by adding aliases based on the comprehensive symbol
information gathered.
The collection process occurs in two phases:
1. First phase: Executed during the linking of vmlinux, "kas_alias" scans
all symbols provided by the 'nm' data against the vmlinux core image
and all objects used for module linkage. This phase requires all
modules objects to be produced at this stage, thereby adding a vmlinux
dependency for linking modules in 'scripts/Makefile.modfinal'.
2. Second phase: In a subsequent run in the same build, "kas_alias"
processes module objects and injects aliases into the objects' symbol
tables where necessary. This operation is done by modifying
'scripts/Makefile.modfinal' to include an action for each processed
module.
Example:
Consider the symbol "device_show", you can expect an output like the
following:
~ # cat /proc/kallsyms | grep " name_show"
ffffcaa2bb4f01c8 t name_show
ffffcaa2bb4f01c8 t name_show@...nel_irq_irqdesc_c_264

NOTE1:
About the symbols name duplication that happens as consequence of the
inclusion compat_binfmt_elf.c does, it is evident that this corner is
inherently challenging the addr2line approach.
Attempting to conceal this limitation would be counterproductive.
compat_binfmt_elf.c includes directly binfmt_elf.c, addr2line can't help
but report all functions and data declared by that file, coming from
binfmt_elf.c.
My position is that, rather than producing a more complicated pipeline
to handle this corner case, it is better to fix the compat_binfmt_elf.c
anomaly.
This patch does not deal with the two potentially problematic symbols
defined by compat_binfmt_elf.c
Changes from v1:
* Integrated changes requested by Masami to exclude symbols with prefixes
"_cfi" and "_pfx".
* Introduced a small framework to handle patterns that need to be excluded
from the alias production.
* Excluded other symbols using the framework.
* Introduced the ability to discriminate between text and data symbols.
* Added two new config symbols in this version:
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALIAS_DATA, which allows data for data, and
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALIAS_DATA_ALL, which excludes all filters and provides
an alias for each duplicated symbol.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230711151925.1092080-1-alessandro.carminati@gmail.com/
Changes from v2:
* Alias tags are created by querying DWARF information from the vmlinux.
* The filename + line number is normalized and appended to the original
name.
* The tag begins with '@' to indicate the symbol source.
* Not a change, but worth mentioning, since the alias is added to the
existing list, the old duplicated name is preserved, and the livepatch
way of dealing with duplicates is maintained.
* Acknowledging the existence of scenarios where inlined functions
declared in header files may result in multiple copies due to compiler
behavior, though it is not actionable as it does not pose an operational
issue.
* Highlighting a single exception where the same name refers to different
functions: the case of "compat_binfmt_elf.c," which directly includes
"binfmt_elf.c" producing identical function copies in two separate
modules.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230714150326.1152359-1-alessandro.carminati@gmail.com/
Changes from v3:
* kas_alias was rewritten in Python to create a more concise and
maintainable codebase.
* The previous automation process used by kas_alias to locate the vmlinux
and the addr2line has been replaced with an explicit command-line switch
for specifying these requirements.
* addr2line has been added into the main Makefile.
* A new command-line switch has been introduced, enabling users to extend
the alias to global data names.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230828080423.3539686-1-alessandro.carminati@gmail.com/
Changes from v4:
* Fixed the O=<build dir> build issue
* The tool halts execution upon encountering major issues, thereby ensuring
the pipeline is interrupted.
* A cmdline option to specify the source directory added.
* Minor code adjusments.
* Tested on mips32 and i386
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230919193948.465340-1-alessandro.carminati@gmail.com/
Changes from v5:
* Regex filter extended to all symbols
* Alias creation extended to module objects
* Code cleaned and commented
* kas_alias verbose execution via KAS_ALIAS_DEBUG env variable
* CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALIAS_SRCLINE selects KBUILD_BUILTIN to ensure no races
during modules build
* Tested on x86_64, aarch64 and i386
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230927173516.1456594-1-alessandro.carminati@gmail.com/
Changes from v6:
* Generate a file to facilitate the construction of custom OOT modules using aliases.
In this context, it is needed to export the modules.symbfreq file, a product of
the build.
* Previously, kas_alias was intended to run once, executing all tasks within the same
session. In this version, two targets have been introduced to split the work into
distinct phases: one for creating aliases for the core image and another for
generating aliases for modules.
* The module aliases production statement has been inserted in the
scripts/Makefile.modfinal. Instead of being executed individually for each module,
it now runs once for all modules.
* The approach for excluding symbols in .init and .exit ELF sections has undergone a
rewrite.
* kas_alias is now capable of applying aliases to OOT modules. However, for this to
occur, the 'modules.symbfreq' file needs to be accessible during the build.
If it is not found, aliases won't be added.
