As mentioned in the info pages of gas, the '.align' pseudo op's
interpretation of the alignment value is architecture specific.
It might either be a byte value or taken to the power of two.

On ARM it's actually the latter which leads to unnecessary large
alignments of 16 bytes for 32 bit builds or 256 bytes for 64 bit
builds.

Fix this by switching to '.balign' instead which is consistent
across all architectures.

On arm64, the EFI stub and the kernel proper are essentially the same
binary, although the EFI stub executes at a different virtual address
as the kernel. For this reason, the EFI stub is restricted in the
symbols it can link to, which is ensured by prefixing all EFI stub
symbols with __efistub_ (and emitting __efistub_ prefixed aliases for
routines that may be shared between the core kernel and the stub)

These symbols are leaking into kallsyms, polluting the namespace, so
let's filter them explicitly.

gcc on aarch64 may emit synbols of type 'n' if the kernel is built with
'-frecord-gcc-switches'.  In most cases, those symbols are reported with
nm as

	000000000000000e n $d

and with objdump as

	0000000000000000 l    d  .GCC.command.line	0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
	000000000000000e l       .GCC.command.line	0000000000000000 $d

Those symbols are detected in is_arm_mapping_symbol() and ignored.
However, if "--prefix-symbols=<prefix>" is configured as well, the
situation is different.  For example, in efi/libstub, arm64 images are
built with

	'--prefix-alloc-sections=.init --prefix-symbols=__efistub_'.

In combination with '-frecord-gcc-switches', the symbols are now reported
by nm as:

	000000000000000e n __efistub_$d
and by objdump as:
	0000000000000000 l    d  .GCC.command.line	0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
	000000000000000e l       .GCC.command.line	0000000000000000 __efistub_$d

Those symbols are no longer ignored and included in the base address
calculation.  This results in a base address of 000000000000000e, which
in turn causes kallsyms to abort with

    kallsyms failure:
	relative symbol value 0xffffff900800a000 out of range in relative mode

The problem is seen in little endian arm64 builds with CONFIG_EFI
enabled and with '-frecord-gcc-switches' set in KCFLAGS.

Explicitly ignore symbols of type 'n' since those are clearly debug
symbols.

This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit
vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel
where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs
being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at
runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)

For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following:

 - introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS

 - adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols
   as references into the .rodata section

 - making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols
   by the section index (SHN_ABS)

 - making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix

On ARM, the linker may emit veneers to deal with relative branch
instructions that appear too far away from their targets. Since the
second kallsyms pass results in an increase of the kernel size, it may
result in additional veneers to be emitted, potentially affecting the
output of kallsyms itself if these symbols are visible to it, and for
that reason, symbols whose names end in '_veneer' are ignored explicitly.

However, when building Thumb2 kernels, such veneers are named differently
if they also incur a mode switch, and since they are not filtered by
kallsyms, they may cause the build to fail. So filter symbols whose names
end in '_from_arm' or '_from_thumb' as well.

Similar to how relative extables are implemented, it is possible to emit
the kallsyms table in such a way that it contains offsets relative to
some anchor point in the kernel image rather than absolute addresses.

On 64-bit architectures, it cuts the size of the kallsyms address table
in half, since offsets between kernel symbols can typically be expressed
in 32 bits.  This saves several hundreds of kilobytes of permanent
.rodata on average.  In addition, the kallsyms address table is no
longer subject to dynamic relocation when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is in
effect, so the relocation work done after decompression now doesn't have
to do relocation updates for all these values.  This saves up to 24
bytes (i.e., the size of a ELF64 RELA relocation table entry) per value,
which easily adds up to a couple of megabytes of uncompressed __init
data on ppc64 or arm64.  Even if these relocation entries typically
compress well, the combined size reduction of 2.8 MB uncompressed for a
ppc64_defconfig build (of which 2.4 MB is __init data) results in a ~500
KB space saving in the compressed image.

Since it is useful for some architectures (like x86) to retain the
ability to emit absolute values as well, this patch also adds support
for capturing both absolute and relative values when
KALLSYMS_ABSOLUTE_PERCPU is in effect, by emitting absolute per-cpu
addresses as positive 32-bit values, and addresses relative to the
lowest encountered relative symbol as negative values, which are
subtracted from the runtime address of this base symbol to produce the
actual address.

Support for the above is enabled by default for all architectures except
IA-64 and Tile-GX, whose symbols are too far apart to capture in this
manner.

Commit c6bda7c9 ("kallsyms: fix percpu vars on x86-64 with
relocation") overloaded the 'A' (absolute) symbol type to signify that a
symbol is not subject to dynamic relocation.  However, the original A
type does not imply that at all, and depending on the version of the
toolchain, many A type symbols are emitted that are in fact relative to
the kernel text, i.e., if the kernel is relocated at runtime, these
symbols should be updated as well.

For instance, on sparc32, the following symbols are emitted as absolute
(kindly provided by Guenter Roeck):

  f035a420 A _etext
  f03d9000 A _sdata
  f03de8c4 A jiffies
  f03f8860 A _edata
  f03fc000 A __init_begin
  f041bdc8 A __init_text_end
  f0423000 A __bss_start
  f0423000 A __init_end
  f044457d A __bss_stop
  f044457d A _end

On x86_64, similar behavior can be observed:

  ffffffff81a00000 A __end_rodata_hpage_align
  ffffffff81b19000 A __vvar_page
  ffffffff81d3d000 A _end

Even if only a couple of them pass the symbol range check that results
in them to be taken into account for the final kallsyms symbol table, it
is obvious that 'A' does not mean the symbol does not need to be updated
at relocation time, and overloading its meaning to signify that is
perhaps not a good idea.

So instead, add a new percpu_absolute member to struct sym_entry, and
when --absolute-percpu is in effect, use it to record symbols whose
addresses should be emitted as final values rather than values that
still require relocation at runtime.  That way, we can drop the check
against the 'A' type.

When linking large kernels on ARM, the linker will insert veneers
(i.e., PLT like stubs) when function symbols are out of reach for
the ordinary relative branch/branch-and-link instructions.

However, due to the fact that the kallsyms region sits in .rodata,
which is between .text and .init.text, additional veneers may be
emitted in the second pass due to the fact that the size of the
kallsyms region itself has pushed the .init.text section further
apart, requiring even more veneers.

So ignore the veneers when generating the symbol table. Veneers
have no corresponding source code, and they will not turn up in
backtraces anyway.

This patch also lightly refactors the symbol_valid() function
to use a local 'sym_name' rather than the obfuscated 'sym + 1'

Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it
to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly
complicated.

x86-64 has a problem: per-cpu variables are actually represented by
their absolute offsets within the per-cpu area, but the symbols are
not emitted as absolute.  Thus kallsyms naively creates them as offsets
from _text, meaning their values change if the kernel is relocated
(especially noticeable with CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE):

 $ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.nokaslr
 0000000000000000 D __per_cpu_start
 0000000000004000 D gdt_page
 0000000000014280 D __per_cpu_end
 ffffffff810001c8 T _stext
 ffffffff81ee53c0 D __per_cpu_offset
 $ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr1
 000000001f200000 D __per_cpu_start

 000000001f214280 D __per_cpu_end
 ffffffffa02001c8 T _stext
 ffffffffa10e53c0 D __per_cpu_offset

Making them absolute symbols is the Right Thing, but requires fixes to
the relocs tool.  So for the moment, we add a --absolute-percpu option
which makes them absolute from a kallsyms perspective:

 $ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /proc/kallsyms # no KASLR
 0000000000000000 A __per_cpu_start

Currently symbols that are absolute addresses are incorrectly displayed

Description:
This bug hardly appears during real kernel compiling,
 because the vmlinux symbols table is huge.

But we can still catch it under strict condition , as follows.
   $ echo "c101b97b T do_fork" | ./scripts/kallsyms --all-symbols
   #include <asm/types.h>
   ......
   ......
   .globl kallsyms_token_table
           ALGN
   kallsyms_token_table:
   Segmentation fault (core dumped)
   $

If symbols table is small, all entries in token_profit[0x10000] may
decrease to 0 after several calls of compress_symbols() in optimize_result().
In that case, find_best_token() always return 0 and
best_table[i] is set to "\0\0" and best_table_len[i] is set to 2.

As a result, expand_symbol(best_table[0]="\0\0", best_table_len[0]=2, buf)
in write_src() will run in infinite recursion until stack overflows,
causing segfault.

This patch checks the find_best_token() return value. If all entries in
token_profit[0x10000] become 0 according to return value, it breaks the loop
in optimize_result().
And expand_symbol() works well when best_table_len[i] is 0.

The cause is the introduction of prefix_underscores_count() which attempts

it just uselessly runs past the end of the buffer until it crashes:

  CC      init/version.o

This simplifies the logic and just does a straightforward count.

The Blackfin arch has a discontiguous .text layout due to having on-chip
instruction memory and no virtual memory support.  As such, we need to
add explicit checks for these additional .text regions.

Impact: bugfix, output more reliable symbol lookup result

Debug tools(dump_stack(), ftrace...) are like to print out symbols.
But it is always print out the first aliased symbol.(Aliased symbols
are symbols with the same address), and the first aliased symbol is
sometime not proper.

 # echo function_graph > current_tracer
 # cat trace
......
 1)   1.923 us    |    select_nohz_load_balancer();
 1) + 76.692 us   |  }
 1)               |  default_idle() {
 1)   ==========> |    __irqentry_text_start() {
 1)   0.000 us    |      native_apic_mem_write();
 1)               |      irq_enter() {
 1)   0.000 us    |        idle_cpu();
 1)               |        tick_check_idle() {
 1)   0.000 us    |          tick_check_oneshot_broadcast();
 1)               |          tick_nohz_stop_idle() {
......

It's very embarrassing, it ouputs "__irqentry_text_start()",
actually, it should output "smp_apic_timer_interrupt()".
(these two symbol are the same address, but "__irqentry_text_start"
is deemed to the first aliased symbol by scripts/kallsyms)

This patch puts symbols like "__irqentry_text_start" to the second
aliased symbols. And a more proper symbol name becomes the first.

Aliased symbols mostly come from linker script. The solution is
guessing "is this symbol defined in linker script", the symbols
defined in linker script will not become the first aliased symbol.

And if symbols are found to be equal in this "linker script provided"
criteria, symbols are sorted by the number of prefix underscores.

This reverts commit ad7a953c.

And commit: ("allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL")
            9bb48247

These stripping patches has caused a set of issues:

1) People have reported compatibility issues with binutils due to
   lack of support for `--strip-unneeded-symbols' with objcopy 2.15.92.0.2
   Reported by: Wenji
2) ccache and distcc no longer works as expeced
   Reported by: Ted, Roland, + others
3) The installed modules increased a lot in size
   Reported by: Ted, Davej + others

Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch
introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64)
kernels I tested with.

The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms-
internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking
stage.

While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to
scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure
here is.
