From e70ccd8a13a9a966df74496fc65a7caa308ae481 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Modra Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2018 13:10:04 +0930 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/vdso: Correct call frame information [ Upstream commit 56d20861c027498b5a1112b4f9f05b56d906fdda ] Call Frame Information is used by gdb for back-traces and inserting breakpoints on function return for the "finish" command. This failed when inside __kernel_clock_gettime. More concerning than difficulty debugging is that CFI is also used by stack frame unwinding code to implement exceptions. If you have an app that needs to handle asynchronous exceptions for some reason, and you are unlucky enough to get one inside the VDSO time functions, your app will crash. What's wrong: There is control flow in __kernel_clock_gettime that reaches label 99 without saving lr in r12. CFI info however is interpreted by the unwinder without reference to control flow: It's a simple matter of "Execute all the CFI opcodes up to the current address". That means the unwinder thinks r12 contains the return address at label 99. Disabuse it of that notion by resetting CFI for the return address at label 99. Note that the ".cfi_restore lr" could have gone anywhere from the "mtlr r12" a few instructions earlier to the instruction at label 99. I put the CFI as late as possible, because in general that's best practice (and if possible grouped with other CFI in order to reduce the number of CFI opcodes executed when unwinding). Using r12 as the return address is perfectly fine after the "mtlr r12" since r12 on that code path still contains the return address. __get_datapage also has a CFI error. That function temporarily saves lr in r0, and reflects that fact with ".cfi_register lr,r0". A later use of r0 means the CFI at that point isn't correct, as r0 no longer contains the return address. Fix that too.
