objtool: Fix ORC vs alternatives
Jann reported that (for instance) entry_64.o:general_protection has very odd ORC data: 0000000000000f40 <general_protection>: #######sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:iret end:0 f40: 90 nop #######sp:(und) bp:(und) type:call end:0 f41: 90 nop f42: 90 nop #######sp:sp+8 bp:(und) type:iret end:0 f43: e8 a8 01 00 00 callq 10f0 <error_entry> #######sp:sp+0 bp:(und) type:regs end:0 f48: f6 84 24 88 00 00 00 testb $0x3,0x88(%rsp) f4f: 03 f50: 74 00 je f52 <general_protection+0x12> f52: 48 89 e7 mov %rsp,%rdi f55: 48 8b 74 24 78 mov 0x78(%rsp),%rsi f5a: 48 c7 44 24 78 ff ff movq $0xffffffffffffffff,0x78(%rsp) f61: ff ff f63: e8 00 00 00 00 callq f68 <general_protection+0x28> f68: e9 73 02 00 00 jmpq 11e0 <error_exit> #######sp:(und) bp:(und) type:call end:0 f6d: 0f 1f 00 nopl (%rax) Note the entry at 0xf41. Josh found this was the result of commit: 764eef4b109a ("objtool: Rewrite alt->skip_orig") Due to the early return in validate_branch() we no longer set insn->cfi of the original instruction stream (the NOPs at 0xf41 and 0xf42) and we'll end up with the above weirdness. In other discussions we realized alternatives should be ORC invariant; that is, due to there being only a single ORC table, it must be valid for all alternatives. The easiest way to ensure this is to not allow any stack modifications in alternatives. When we enforce this latter observation, we get the property that the whole alternative must have the same CFI, which we can employ to fix the former report.

+10. file.o: warning: func()+0x5c: alternative modifies stack
+
+ This means that an alternative includes instructions that modify the
+ stack. The problem is that there is only one ORC unwind table, this means
+ that the ORC unwind entries must be valid for each of the alternatives.
+ The easiest way to enforce this is to ensure alternatives do not contain
+ any ORC entries, which in turn implies the above constraint.
If the error doesn't seem to make sense, it could be a bug in objtool.
Feel free to ask the objtool maintainer for help.
