2021-04-09static_call: Relax static_call_update() function argument typePeter Zijlstra
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. This cleans up a bunch of static_call_update() callers for PREEMPT_DYNAMIC and should get around silly GCC11 warnings for free.

2021-03-11static_call: Add function to query current functionJuergen Gross
Some users of paravirtualized functions need to query which function has been specified in a pv_ops vector element. In order to be able to switch such paravirtualized functions to static_calls instead, there needs to be a function to query the function which will be called via static_call().

2021-03-11static_call: Move struct static_call_key definition to static_call_types.hJuergen Gross
Having the definition of static_call() in static_call_types.h makes no sense as long struct static_call_key isn't defined there, as the generic implementation of static_call() is referencing this structure. So move the definition of struct static_call_key to static_call_types.h.

2021-02-17static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_keyJosh Poimboeuf
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.

2021-02-17static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0()Frederic Weisbecker
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.

2021-02-17static_call/x86: Add __static_call_return0()Peter Zijlstra
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.

2020-10-02static_call: Fix return type of static_call_initNathan Chancellor
Functions that are passed to early_initcall should be of type initcall_t, which expects a return type of int. This is not currently an error but a patch in the Clang LTO series could change that in the future.

2020-09-01static_call: Allow early initPeter Zijlstra
In order to use static_call() to wire up x86_pmu, we need to initialize earlier, specifically before memory allocation works; copy some of the tricks from jump_label to enable this. Primarily we overload key->next to store a sites pointer when there are no modules, this avoids having to use kmalloc() to initialize the sites and allows us to run much earlier.

2020-09-01static_call: Handle tail-callsPeter Zijlstra
GCC can turn our static_call(name)(args...) into a tail call, in which case we get a JMP.d32 into the trampoline (which then does a further tail-call). Teach objtool to recognise and mark these in .static_call_sites and adjust the code patching to deal with this.

2020-09-01static_call: Add static_call_cond()Peter Zijlstra
Extend the static_call infrastructure to optimize the following common pattern: if (func_ptr) func_ptr(args...) For the trampoline (which is in effect a tail-call), we patch the JMP.d32 into a RET, which then directly consumes the trampoline call. For the in-line sites we replace the CALL with a NOP5. NOTE: this is 'obviously' limited to functions with a 'void' return type. NOTE: DEFINE_STATIC_COND_CALL() only requires a typename, as opposed to a full function.

2020-09-01static_call: Add inline static call infrastructureJosh Poimboeuf
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.

2020-09-01static_call: Add basic static call infrastructureJosh Poimboeuf
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.
