klp-diff treats all rodata as uncorrelated, so any reference to it uses
a duplicated copy rather than using a KLP reloc.
For the contents of the data itself, a duplicated copy is fine.
However, pointer comparisons (e.g., f->f_op == &foo_ops) are broken.
Fix it by correlating non-anonymous rodata objects.
Also, use a new find_symbol_containing_inclusive() helper for matching
the end of a symbol so bounds calculations don't get broken, for the
case where an array or other symbol's ending address is used as part of
a bounds calculation.
While these are really two distinct changes, they need to be done in the
same patch so as to avoid introducing bisection regressions.

Objtool is failing to extract text annotations which reference
.altinstr_replacement instructions:
1) Alternative replacement fake symbols are NOTYPE rather than FUNC,
and they don't have sym->included set, thus they aren't recognized
by should_keep_special_sym().
2) .discard.annotate_insn gets processed before .altinstr_replacement,
so the referenced (fake) symbols don't have clones yet.
Fix the first issue by checking for a valid clone instead of
sym->included and by accepting NOTYPE symbols when processing
.discard.annotate_insn.
Fix the second issue by deferring text annotation processing until after
the other special sections have been cloned.

This series cleans up some of the special user copy functions naming and
semantics. In particular, get rid of the (very traditional) double
underscore names and behavior: the whole "optimize away the range check"
model has been largely excised from the other user accessors because
it's so subtle and can be unsafe, but also because it's just not a
relevant optimization any more.
To do that, a couple of drivers that misused the "user" copies as kernel
copies in order to get non-temporal stores had to be fixed up, but that
kind of code should never have been allowed anyway.
The x86-only "nocache" version was also renamed to more accurately
reflect what it actually does.
This was all done because I looked at this code due to a report by Jann
Horn, and I just couldn't stand the inconsistent naming, the horrible
semantics, and the random misuse of these functions. This code should
probably be cleaned up further, but it's at least slightly closer to
normal semantics.
I had a more intrusive series that went even further in trying to
normalize the semantics, but that ended up hitting so many other
inconsistencies between different architectures in this area (eg
'size_t' vs 'unsigned long' vs 'int' as size arguments, and various
iovec check differences that Vasily Gorbik pointed out) that I ended up
with this more limited version that fixed the worst of the issues.

* nocache-cleanup:
x86-64/arm64/powerpc: clean up and rename __copy_from_user_flushcache
x86: rename and clean up __copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache()
x86-64: rename misleadingly named '__copy_user_nocache()' function
This function was a masterclass in bad naming, for various historical
reasons.
It claimed to be a non-cached user copy. It is literally _neither_ of
those things. It's a specialty memory copy routine that uses
non-temporal stores for the destination (but not the source), and that
does exception handling for both source and destination accesses.
Also note that while it works for unaligned targets, any unaligned parts
(whether at beginning or end) will not use non-temporal stores, since
only words and quadwords can be non-temporal on x86.
The exception handling means that it _can_ be used for user space
accesses, but not on its own - it needs all the normal "start user space
access" logic around it.
But typically the user space access would be the source, not the
non-temporal destination. That was the original intention of this,
where the destination was some fragile persistent memory target that
needed non-temporal stores in order to catch machine check exceptions
synchronously and deal with them gracefully.
Thus that non-descriptive name: one use case was to copy from user space
into a non-cached kernel buffer. However, the existing users are a mix
of that intended use-case, and a couple of random drivers that just did
this as a performance tweak.
Some of those random drivers then actively misused the user copying
version (with STAC/CLAC and all) to do kernel copies without ever even
caring about the exception handling, _just_ for the non-temporal
destination.
Rename it as a first small step to actually make it halfway sane, and
change the prototype to be more normal: it doesn't take a user pointer
unless the caller has done the proper conversion, and the argument size
is the full size_t (it still won't actually copy more than 4GB in one
go, but there's also no reason to silently truncate the size argument in
the caller).
Finally, use this now sanely named function in the NTB code, which
mis-used a user copy version (with STAC/CLAC and all) of this interface
despite it not actually being a user copy at all.

Patching a function which references a static key living in a kernel
module is unsupported due to ordering issues inherent to late module
patching:
1) Load a livepatch module which has a __jump_table entry which needs
a klp reloc to reference static key K which lives in module M.
2) The __jump_table klp reloc does *not* get resolved because module M
is not yet loaded.
3) jump_label_add_module() corrupts memory (or causes a panic) when
dereferencing the uninitialized pointer to key K.
validate_special_section_klp_reloc() intends to prevent that from ever
happening by catching it at build time. However, it incorrectly assumes
the special section entry's reloc symbol references have already been
converted from section symbols to object symbols, causing the validation
to miss corruption in extracted static branch/call table entries.
Make sure the references have been properly converted before doing the
validation.

`objtool` with Rust 1.84.0 reports:
rust/kernel.o: error: objtool: _RNvXNtNtCsaRPFapPOzLs_6kernel3str9parse_intaNtNtB2_7private12FromStrRadix14from_str_radix()
falls through to next function _RNvXNtNtCsaRPFapPOzLs_6kernel3str9parse_intaNtNtB2_7private12FromStrRadix16from_u64_negated()
This is very similar to commit c18f35e490 ("objtool/rust: add one more
`noreturn` Rust function"), which added `from_ascii_radix_panic` for Rust
1.86.0, except that Rust 1.84.0 ends up needing `from_str_radix_panic`.
Thus add it to the list to fix the warning.

livepatch: Fix having __klp_objects relics in non-livepatch modules
livepatch/klp-build: Require Clang assembler >= 20
Enabling CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG with CONFIG_SAMPLE_LIVEPATCH
results in the following error:
samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.o: error: objtool: static_call: can't find static_call_key symbol: __SCK__WARN_trap
This is caused an extra file->klp sanity check which was added by commit
164c9201e1 ("objtool: Add base objtool support for livepatch
modules"). That check was intended to ensure that livepatch modules
built with klp-build always have full access to their static call keys.
However, it failed to account for the fact that manually built livepatch
modules (i.e., not built with klp-build) might need access to unexported
static call keys, for which read-only access is typically allowed for
modules.
While the livepatch-shadow-fix1 module doesn't explicitly use any static
calls, it does have a memory allocation, which can cause
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG to insert a WARN() call. And WARN() is
now an unexported static call as of commit 860238af7a ("x86_64/bug:
Inline the UD1").
Fix it by removing the overzealous file->klp check, restoring the
original behavior for manually built livepatch modules.

When compiling with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN, vmlinux.o has
__irf_[start|end] before the first FILE entry:
$ readelf -sW vmlinux.o
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 597706 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT UND
1: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 18 __irf_start
2: 0000000000000200 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 18 __irf_end

4: 0000000000000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 18 .init.ramfs
This causes klp-build warnings like:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: no correlation: __irf_start
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: no correlation: __irf_end
The problem is that Clang LTO is stripping the initramfs_data.o FILE
symbol, causing those two symbols to be orphaned and not noticed by
klp-diff's correlation logic. Add a loop to correlate any symbols found
before the first FILE symbol.

Running objtool klp-diff on a changed function which uses WARN() can
fail with:
vmlinux.o: error: objtool: md_run+0x866: failed to convert reloc sym '__bug_table' to its proper format
The problem is that since commit 5b472b6e5b ("x86_64/bug: Implement
__WARN_printf()"), each __WARN_printf() call site now directly
references its bug table entry. klp-diff errors out when it can't
convert such section-based references to object symbols (because bug
table entries don't have symbols).
Luckily, klp-diff already has code to create symbols for bug table
entries. Move that code earlier, before function diffing.

The source file tools/objtool/elf.c defines the macros ALIGN_UP(),
ALIGN_UP_POW2() and MAX(). These macros unnecessarily duplicate
functionality already available under tools/include/, specifically ALIGN(),
roundup_pow_of_two() and max().
More importantly, the definition of ALIGN_UP_POW2() is incorrect when the
input is 1, as it results in a call to __builtin_clz(0), which produces an
undefined result. This issue impacts the function elf_alloc_reloc(). When
adding the first relocation to a section, the function allocates an
undefined number of relocations.
Replace the custom macros with the shared functionality to resolve these
issues.

static libraries lack their dependencies. This causes undefined reference

without its required libbfd and libiberty.
Fix by testing with an actual libopcodes symbol and trying increasingly
complete library combinations until one succeeds.

Having a single large pv_ops array has the main disadvantage of needing all
prototypes of the single array members in one header file. This is adding up
to the need to include lots of otherwise unrelated headers.
In order to allow multiple smaller pv_ops arrays dedicated to one area of the
kernel each, allow multiple arrays in objtool.
For better performance limit the possible names of the arrays to start with
"pv_ops".

Commit 5995330382 ("objtool: Disassemble code with libopcodes instead
of running objdump") added support for using libopcodes for disassembly.
However, the feature detection checks for libbfd availability but then
unconditionally links against libopcodes:
ifeq ($(feature-libbfd),1)
OBJTOOL_LDFLAGS += -lopcodes
endif
This causes build failures in environments where libbfd is installed but
libopcodes is not, since the test-libbfd.c feature test only links
against -lbfd and -ldl, not -lopcodes:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lopcodes: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: *** [Makefile:109: objtool] Error 1
Additionally, the shared feature framework uses $(CC) which is the
cross-compiler in cross-compilation builds. Since objtool is a host tool
that links with $(HOSTCC) against host libraries, the feature detection
can falsely report libopcodes as available when the cross-compiler's
sysroot has it but the host system doesn't.
Fix this by replacing the feature framework check with a direct inline
test that uses $(HOSTCC) to compile and link a test program against
libopcodes, similar to how xxhash availability is detected.

Add a signal handler to objtool which prints an error message like if
the local stack has overflown (for which there's a chance as objtool
makes heavy use of recursion):
drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla2xxx.o: error: SIGSEGV: objtool stack overflow!
or:

Also, re-raise the signal so the core dump still gets triggered.

On an allmodconfig kernel compiled with Clang, objtool is segfaulting in
drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla2xxx.o due to a stack overflow in
validate_branch().
Due in part to KASAN being enabled, the qla2xxx code has a large number
of conditional jumps, causing objtool to go quite deep in its recursion.
By far the biggest offender of stack usage is the recently added
'prev_state' stack variable in validate_insn(), coming in at 328 bytes.
Move that variable (and its tracing usage) to handle_insn_ops() and make
handle_insn_ops() noinline to keep its stack frame outside the recursive
call chain.

The solution to this issue is to define the PACKAGE macro before
