objtool: Support GCC 8 switch tables
With GCC 8, some issues were found with the objtool switch table detection. 1) In the .rodata section, immediately after the switch table, there can be another object which contains a pointer to the function which had the switch statement. In this case objtool wrongly considers the function pointer to be part of the switch table. Fix it by: a) making sure there are no pointers to the beginning of the function; and b) making sure there are no gaps in the switch table. Only the former was needed, the latter adds additional protection for future optimizations. 2) In find_switch_table(), case 1 and case 2 are missing the check to ensure that the .rodata switch table data is anonymous, i.e. that it isn't already associated with an ELF symbol. Fix it by adding the same find_symbol_containing() check which is used for case 3. This fixes the following warnings with GCC 8: drivers/block/virtio_blk.o: warning: objtool: virtio_queue_rq()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+72 net/ipv6/icmp.o: warning: objtool: icmpv6_rcv()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+64 drivers/usb/core/quirks.o: warning: objtool: quirks_param_set()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+48 drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_hynix.o: warning: objtool: hynix_nand_decode_id()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+24 drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_samsung.o: warning: objtool: samsung_nand_decode_id()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+32 drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/top/gk104.o: warning: objtool: gk104_top_oneinit()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+8 cfa2=7+64 Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]> Reported-by: kbuild test robot <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <[email protected]> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <[email protected]> Cc: David Laight <[email protected]> Cc: Greg KH <[email protected]> Cc: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Randy Dunlap <[email protected]> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Cc: damian <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180510224849.xwi34d6tzheb5wgw@treble Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
