[PATCH][v6][RFC] livepatch/ppc: Enable livepatching on powerpc

Wed Mar 9 17:59:40 AEDT 2016
The previous revision was nacked by Torsten, but compared to the alternatives
at hand I think we should test this approach. Ideally we want all the complexity
of live-patching in the live-patching code and not in the patch. The other option
is to accept v4 and document the limitation to patch writers of not patching
functions > 8 arguments or marking such functions as notrace or equivalent
Changelog v6:
1. Experimental changes -- need loads of testing
Based on the assumption that very far TOC and LR values
indicate the call happened through a stub and the
stub return works differently from a local call which
uses klp_return_helper.
2. This now runs the test case posted by Petr
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=145745300216069&w=2
Changelog v5:
1. Removed the mini-stack frame created for klp_return_helper.
As a result of the mini-stack frame, function with > 8
arguments could not be patched
2. Removed camel casing in the comments
Changelog v4:
1. Renamed klp_matchaddr() to klp_get_ftrace_location()
and used it just to convert the function address.
2. Synced klp_write_module_reloc() with s390(); made it
inline, no error message, return -ENOSYS
3. Added an error message when including
powerpc/include/asm/livepatch.h without HAVE_LIVEPATCH
4. Update some comments.
Changelog v3:
1. Moved -ENOSYS to -EINVAL in klp_write_module_reloc
2. Moved klp_matchaddr to use ftrace_location_range
Changelog v2:
1. Implement review comments by Michael
2. The previous version compared _NIP from the
wrong location to check for whether we
are going to a patched location
This patch enables live patching for powerpc. The current patch
is applied on top of topic/mprofile-kernel at
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git/
This patch builds on top of ftrace with regs changes and the
-mprofile-kernel changes. It detects a change in NIP after
the klp subsystem has potentially changes the NIP as a result
of a livepatch. In that case it saves the TOC in the parents
stack and the offset of the return address from the TOC in
the reserved (CR+4) space. This hack allows us to provide the
complete frame of the calling function as is to the caller
without having to create a mini-frame
Upon return from the patched function, the TOC and correct
LR is restored.
I tested the sample in the livepatch and an additional sample
that patches int_to_scsilun. I'll post out that sample if there
is interest later. I also tested ftrace functionality on the
command line to check for breakage
