Just fail on align type. Kernel modules loader didn't do relax
like linker, it is difficult to remove or migrate the code,
but the remnant nop instructions harm the performaace of module.
We expect the building module with the no-relax option.

For CALL_PLT, emit the plt entry only when offset is more than 32-bit.
For PCREL_LO12, it uses the location of corresponding HI20 to
get the address of external symbol. It should check the HI20 type
is the PCREL_HI20 or GOT_HI20, because sometime the location will
have two or more relocation types.
For example:
0: 00000797 auipc a5,0x0
0: R_RISCV_ALIGN *ABS*
0: R_RISCV_GOT_HI20 SYMBOL
4: 0007b783 ld a5,0(a5) # 0 <SYMBOL>
4: R_RISCV_PCREL_LO12_I .L0
4: R_RISCV_RELAX *ABS*

Separate the function symbol address from .plt to .got.plt section.
The original plt entry has trampoline code with symbol address,
there is a 32-bit padding bwtween jar instruction and symbol address.
Extract the symbol address to .got.plt to reduce the module size.

The address of external symbols will locate more than 32-bit offset
in 64-bit kernel with sv39 or sv48 virtual addressing.
Module loader emits the GOT and PLT entries for data symbols and
function symbols respectively.
The PLT entry is a trampoline code for jumping to the 64-bit
real address. The GOT entry is just the data symbol address.

Atomics present the same issue with locking: release and acquire
variants need to be strengthened to meet the constraints defined
by the Linux-kernel memory consistency model [1].
Atomics present a further issue: implementations of atomics such
as atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_add_unless() rely on LR/SC pairs,
which do not give full-ordering with .aqrl; for example, current
implementations allow the "lr-sc-aqrl-pair-vs-full-barrier" test
below to end up with the state indicated in the "exists" clause.
In order to "synchronize" LKMM and RISC-V's implementation, this
commit strengthens the implementations of the atomics operations
by replacing .rl and .aq with the use of ("lightweigth") fences,
and by replacing .aqrl LR/SC pairs in sequences such as:
0: lr.w.aqrl %0, %addr
bne %0, %old, 1f
...
sc.w.aqrl %1, %new, %addr
bnez %1, 0b
1:
with sequences of the form:
0: lr.w %0, %addr
bne %0, %old, 1f
...
sc.w.rl %1, %new, %addr /* SC-release */
bnez %1, 0b
fence rw, rw /* "full" fence */
1:
following Daniel's suggestion.
These modifications were validated with simulation of the RISC-V
memory consistency model.

Current implementations map locking operations using .rl and .aq
annotations. However, this mapping is unsound w.r.t. the kernel
memory consistency model (LKMM) [1]:
Referring to the "unlock-lock-read-ordering" test reported below,
Daniel wrote:
"I think an RCpc interpretation of .aq and .rl would in fact
allow the two normal loads in P1 to be reordered [...]
The intuition would be that the amoswap.w.aq can forward from
the amoswap.w.rl while that's still in the store buffer, and
then the lw x3,0(x4) can also perform while the amoswap.w.rl
is still in the store buffer, all before the l1 x1,0(x2)
executes. That's not forbidden unless the amoswaps are RCsc,
unless I'm missing something.
Likewise even if the unlock()/lock() is between two stores.
A control dependency might originate from the load part of
the amoswap.w.aq, but there still would have to be something
to ensure that this load part in fact performs after the store
part of the amoswap.w.rl performs globally, and that's not
automatic under RCpc."
Simulation of the RISC-V memory consistency model confirmed this
expectation.
In order to "synchronize" LKMM and RISC-V's implementation, this
commit strengthens the implementations of the locking operations
by replacing .rl and .aq with the use of ("lightweigth") fences,
resp., "fence rw, w" and "fence r , rw".

Introduce __smp_{store_release,load_acquire}, and rely on the generic

In walk_stackframe, the pc now receives the address from calling
ftrace_graph_ret_addr instead of manual calculation.
Note that the original calculation,
pc = frame->ra - 4
is buggy when the instruction at the return address happened to be a
compressed inst. But since it is not a critical part of ftrace, it is
ignored for now to ease the review process.

Once the function_graph tracer is enabled, a filtered function has the
following call sequence:
* ftracer_caller ==> on/off by ftrace_make_call/ftrace_make_nop
* ftrace_graph_caller
* ftrace_graph_call ==> on/off by ftrace_en/disable_ftrace_graph_caller
* prepare_ftrace_return
Considering the following DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS feature, it would be
more extendable to have a ftrace_graph_caller function, instead of
calling prepare_ftrace_return directly in ftrace_caller.

We now have dynamic ftrace with the following added items:
* ftrace_make_call, ftrace_make_nop (in kernel/ftrace.c)
The two functions turn each recorded call site of filtered functions
into a call to ftrace_caller or nops
* ftracce_update_ftrace_func (in kernel/ftrace.c)
turns the nops at ftrace_call into a call to a generic entry for
function tracers.
* ftrace_caller (in kernel/mcount-dyn.S)
The entry where each _mcount call sites calls to once they are
filtered to be traced.
Also, this patch fixes the semantic problems in mcount.S, which will be
treated as only a reference implementation once we have the dynamic
ftrace.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main scheduler changes in this cycle were:
- NUMA balancing improvements (Mel Gorman)
- Further load tracking improvements (Patrick Bellasi)
- Various NOHZ balancing cleanups and optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)
- Improve blocked load handling, in particular we can now reduce and
eventually stop periodic load updates on 'very idle' CPUs. (Vincent
Guittot)
- On isolated CPUs offload the final 1Hz scheduler tick as well, plus
related cleanups and reorganization. (Frederic Weisbecker)
- Core scheduler code cleanups (Ingo Molnar)"

Error injection is a useful mechanism to fail arbitrary kernel
functions. However, it is often hard to guarantee an error propagates
appropriately to user space programs. By injecting into syscalls, we can
return arbitrary values to user space directly; this increases
flexibility and robustness in testing, allowing us to test user space
error paths effectively.
The following script, for example, fails calls to sys_open() from a
given pid:
from bcc import BPF
from sys import argv
pid = argv[1]
prog = r"""
int kprobe__SyS_open(struct pt_regs *ctx, const char *pathname, int flags)
{
u32 pid = bpf_get_current_pid_tgid();
if (pid == %s)
bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
return 0;
}
""" % pid
b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
b.perf_buffer_poll()
This patch whitelists all syscalls defined with SYSCALL_DEFINE and
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE for error injection. These changes are not
intended to be considered stable, and would normally be configured off.

Shuffle the cond_syscall() entries in kernel/sys_ni.c around so that they
are kept in the same order as in include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h. For
better structuring, add the same comments as in that file, but keep a few
additional comments and extend the commentary where it seems useful.

compat_sys_*() functions are no longer called from within the kernel on
x86 except from the system call table. Linking the system call does not
require compat_sys_*() function prototypes at least on x86. Therefore,
generate compat_sys_*() prototypes on-the-fly within the
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro, and remove x86-specific prototypes from
various header files.

Shuffle the syscall prototypes in include/linux/compat.h around so
that they are kept in the same order as in
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h. The individual entries are kept
the same, and neither modified to bring them in line with kernel coding
style nor wrapped in proper ifdefs -- as an exception to this, add the
prefix "asmlinkage" where it was missing.

As the syscall functions should only be called from the system call table
but not from elsewhere in the kernel, it is sufficient that they are
defined in linux/compat.h.

Same as with other system calls, sys_sigreturn() should return a value
of type long, not unsigned long. This also matches the behaviour for
IA32_EMULATION, see sys32_sigreturn() in arch/x86/ia32/ia32_signal.c .

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_ioperm() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant
as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same
calling convention as sys_ioperm().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see
