"make vdso_install" installs unstripped versions of the vdso objects
for the benefit of the debugger. This was broken by checkin:
6f121e548f x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time C
The filenames are different now, so update the Makefile to cope.
This still installs the 64-bit vdso as vdso64.so. We believe this
will be okay, as the only known user is a patched gdb which is known
to use build-ids, but if it turns out to be a problem we may have to
add a link.
Inspired by a patch from Sam Ravnborg.

The Go runtime has a buggy vDSO parser that currently segfaults.
This writes an empty SHT_DYNSYM entry that causes Go's runtime to
malfunction by thinking that the vDSO is empty rather than
malfunctioning by running off the end and segfaulting.
This affects x86-64 only as far as we know, so we do not need this for
the i386 and x32 vdsos.

One final use of the macros from <endian.h> which are not available on
older system. In this case we had one sole case of *writing* a
littleendian number, but the number is SHN_UNDEF which is the constant
zero, so rather than dealing with the general case of littleendian
puts here, just document that the constant is zero and be done with
it.

Make it a little clearer what the littleendian access macros in
vdso2c.[ch] actually do. This way they can probably also be moved to
a central location (e.g. tools/include) for the benefit of other host
tools.
We should avoid implementation namespace symbols when writing code
that is compiling for the compiler host, so avoid names starting with
double underscore or underscore-capital.

Using arch_vma_name to give special mappings a name is awkward. x86
currently implements it by comparing the start address of the vma to
the expected address of the vdso. This requires tracking the start
address of special mappings and is probably buggy if a special vma
is split or moved.
Improve _install_special_mapping to just name the vma directly. Use
it to give the x86 vvar area a name, which should make CRIU's life
easier.
As a side effect, the vvar area will show up in core dumps. This
could be considered weird and is fixable.
[hpa: I say we accept this as-is but be prepared to deal with knocking
out the vvars from core dumps if this becomes a problem.]

The oops can be triggered in qemu using -no-hpet (but not nohpet) by
reading a couple of pages past the end of the vdso text. This
should send SIGBUS instead of OOPSing.

Date: Mon Mar 17 23:22:09 2014 +0100
x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 32 bit kernel
which is new in 3.15.
This will be fixed separately in 3.15, but that patch will not apply
to tip/x86/vdso. This is the equivalent fix for tip/x86/vdso and,
presumably, 3.16.

Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination
of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF
parsers in the kernel. Replace all of that with plain C code that
runs at build time.
All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and
linked in to the kernel image.
This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO
images are stripped more heavily than they used to be. Everything
outside the loadable segment is dropped. In particular, this causes
the section table and section name strings to be missing. This
should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these
tables anyway. The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's
--strip-sections option.
The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings
to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment. Currently,
it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after
the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or
hpet page. This happens whenever the load segment is just under a
multiple of PAGE_SIZE.
The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with
inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script
that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'. This most
likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol
associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real
dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall. That caused ld to relocate the
reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic
relocation. Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I
now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it
work. vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the
resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't
silently generate bad vdso images.
(Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt
to relocate the vdso.)

x86, vdso: Make the vdso linker script compatible with Gold
Pull x86 vdso changes from Peter Anvin:
"This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups.
This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have
in the 64-bit vdso. Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to
remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come.
This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration
variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will
produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty.
Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was
unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release.
This is not the end of the vdso cleanups. Stefani and Andy have
agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has
already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this
cycle.
An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures
that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed. It wasn't
before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS
or the bootloader. Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space
this had the potential of information leaks"

This replaces a decent amount of incomprehensible and buggy code
with much more straightforward code. It also brings the 32-bit vdso
more in line with the 64-bit vdsos, so maybe someday they can share
even more code.
This wastes a small amount of kernel .data and .text space, but it
avoids a couple of allocations on startup, so it should be more or
less a wash memory-wise.

This patch add the VDSO time support for the IA32 Emulation Layer.
Due the nature of the kernel headers and the LP64 compiler where the
size of a long and a pointer differs against a 32 bit compiler, there
is some type hacking necessary for optimal performance.
The vsyscall_gtod_data struture must be a rearranged to serve 32- and
64-bit code access at the same time:
- The seqcount_t was replaced by an unsigned, this makes the
vsyscall_gtod_data intedepend of kernel configuration and internal functions.
- All kernel internal structures are replaced by fix size elements
which works for 32- and 64-bit access
- The inner struct clock was removed to pack the whole struct.
The "unsigned seq" would be handled by functions derivated from seqcount_t.

The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain
compatibility with a small range of glibc versions.
This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.
This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.
