arm64: vdso: remove two .altinstructions related symbols The two symbols __alt_instructions and __alt_instructions_end are not used, since the vDSO patching code looks for the '.altinstructions' ELF section directly.

arm64/vdso: Discard .note.gnu.property sections in vDSO The arm64 assembler in binutils 2.32 and above generates a program property note in a note section, .note.gnu.property, to encode used x86 ISAs and features. But the kernel linker script only contains a single NOTE segment: PHDRS { text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5) FILEHDR PHDRS; /* PF_R|PF_X */ dynamic PT_DYNAMIC FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */ note PT_NOTE FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */ } The NOTE segment generated by the vDSO linker script is aligned to 4 bytes. But the .note.gnu.property section must be aligned to 8 bytes on arm64. $ readelf -n vdso64.so Displaying notes found in: .note Owner Data size Description Linux 0x00000004 Unknown note type: (0x00000000) description data: 06 00 00 00 readelf: Warning: note with invalid namesz and/or descsz found at offset 0x20 readelf: Warning: type: 0x78, namesize: 0x00000100, descsize: 0x756e694c, alignment: 8 Since the note.gnu.property section in the vDSO is not checked by the dynamic linker, discard the .note.gnu.property sections in the vDSO. Similar to commit 4caffe6a28d31 ("x86/vdso: Discard .note.gnu.property sections in vDSO"), but for arm64.

arm64: vdso: disable .eh_frame_hdr via /DISCARD/ instead of --no-eh-frame-hdr Currently with ld.lld we emit an empty .eh_frame_hdr section (and a corresponding program header) into the vDSO. With ld.bfd the section is not emitted but the program header is, with p_vaddr set to 0. This can lead to unwinders attempting to interpret the data at whichever location the program header happens to point to as an unwind info header. This happens to be mostly harmless as long as the byte at that location (interpreted as a version number) has a value other than 1, causing both libgcc and LLVM libunwind to ignore the section (in libunwind's case, after printing an error message to stderr), but it could lead to worse problems if the byte happened to be 1 or the program header points to non-readable memory (e.g. if the empty section was placed at a page boundary). Instead of disabling .eh_frame_hdr via --no-eh-frame-hdr (which also has the downside of being unsupported by older versions of GNU binutils), disable it by discarding the section, and stop emitting the program header that points to it. I understand that we intend to emit valid unwind info for the vDSO at some point. Once that happens this patch can be reverted.

arm64/vdso: Add time namespace page Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages. Provide __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the code-relative position of VVARs on that special page. If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path. The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again. If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the special VVAR page. The time-namespace page isn't allocated on !CONFIG_TIME_NAMESPACE, but vma is the same size, which simplifies criu/vdso migration between different kernel configs.

arm64: vdso: move data page before code pages Andy pointed out that binutils generates additional sections in the vdso image (e.g. section string table) which, if our .text section gets big enough, could cross a page boundary and end up screwing up the location where the kernel expects to put the data page. This patch solves the issue in the same manner as x86_32, by moving the data page before the code pages.
