static_call: Add call depth tracking support When indirect calls are switched to direct calls then it has to be ensured that the call target is not the function, but the call thunk when call depth tracking is enabled. But static calls are available before call thunks have been set up. Ensure a second run through the static call patching code after call thunks have been created. When call thunks are not enabled this has no side effects.

static_call: Properly initialise DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() When a static call is updated with __static_call_return0() as target, arch_static_call_transform() set it to use an optimised set of instructions which are meant to lay in the same cacheline.

static_call: Relax static_call_update() function argument type static_call_update() had stronger type requirements than regular C, relax them to match. Instead of requiring the @func argument has the exact matching type, allow any type which C is willing to promote to the right (function) pointer type. Specifically this allows (void *) arguments.

static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_key When exporting static_call_key; with EXPORT_STATIC_CALL*(), the module can use static_call_update() to change the function called. This is not desirable in general. Not exporting static_call_key however also disallows usage of static_call(), since objtool needs the key to construct the static_call_site. Solve this by allowing objtool to create the static_call_site using the trampoline address when it builds a module and cannot find the static_call_key symbol. The module loader will then try and map the trampole back to a key before it constructs the normal sites list. Doing this requires a trampoline -> key associsation, so add another magic section that keeps those.

static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() DECLARE_STATIC_CALL() must pass the original function targeted for a given static call. But DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() may want to initialize it as off. In this case we can't pass NULL (for functions without return value) or __static_call_return0 (for functions returning a value) directly to DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() as that may trigger a static call redeclaration with a different function prototype. Type casts neither can work around that as they don't get along with typeof(). The proper way to do that for functions that don't return a value is to use DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(). But functions returning a actual value don't have an equivalent yet. Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() to solve this situation.

static_call/x86: Add __static_call_return0() Provide a stub function that return 0 and wire up the static call site patching to replace the CALL with a single 5 byte instruction that clears %RAX, the return value register. The function can be cast to any function pointer type that has a single %RAX return (including pointers). Also provide a version that returns an int for convenience. We are clearing the entire %RAX register in any case, whether the return value is 32 or 64 bits, since %RAX is always a scratch register anyway.

static_call: Add inline static call infrastructure Add infrastructure for an arch-specific CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE option, which is a faster version of CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL. At runtime, the static call sites are patched directly, rather than using the out-of-line trampolines. Compared to out-of-line static calls, the performance benefits are more modest, but still measurable. Steven Rostedt did some tracepoint measurements: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181126155405.72b4f718@gandalf.local.home This code is heavily inspired by the jump label code (aka "static jumps"), as some of the concepts are very similar.

static_call: Add basic static call infrastructure Static calls are a replacement for global function pointers. They use code patching to allow direct calls to be used instead of indirect calls. They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with improved performance. This is especially important for cases where retpolines would otherwise be used, as retpolines can significantly impact performance. The concept and code are an extension of previous work done by Ard Biesheuvel and Steven Rostedt: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181005081333.15018-1-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181006015110.653946300@goodmis.org There are two implementations, depending on arch support: 1) out-of-line: patched trampolines (CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL) 2) basic function pointers For more details, see the comments in include/linux/static_call.h.
