Ricardo Ribalda 013027918a kexec: support purgatories with .text.hot sections
commit 8652d44f46 upstream.

Patch series "kexec: Fix kexec_file_load for llvm16 with PGO", v7.

When upreving llvm I realised that kexec stopped working on my test
platform.

The reason seems to be that due to PGO there are multiple .text sections
on the purgatory, and kexec does not supports that.


This patch (of 4):

Clang16 links the purgatory text in two sections when PGO is in use:

  [ 1] .text             PROGBITS         0000000000000000  00000040
       00000000000011a1  0000000000000000  AX       0     0     16
  [ 2] .rela.text        RELA             0000000000000000  00003498
       0000000000000648  0000000000000018   I      24     1     8
  ...
  [17] .text.hot.        PROGBITS         0000000000000000  00003220
       000000000000020b  0000000000000000  AX       0     0     1
  [18] .rela.text.hot.   RELA             0000000000000000  00004428
       0000000000000078  0000000000000018   I      24    17     8

And both of them have their range [sh_addr ... sh_addr+sh_size] on the
area pointed by `e_entry`.

This causes that image->start is calculated twice, once for .text and
another time for .text.hot. The second calculation leaves image->start
in a random location.

Because of this, the system crashes immediately after:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
