.rodata is implicitly included in the PT_DYNAMIC segment due to inheriting the segment of the preceding .dynamic section (in both GNU ld and LLD). When the .rodata section's size is not a multiple of 16 bytes on riscv64, llvm-readelf will report a "PT_DYNAMIC dynamic table is invalid" warning. Note: in the presence of the .dynamic section, GNU readelf and llvm-readelf's -d option decodes the dynamic section using the section. This issue arose after commit 8f8c1ff ("riscv: vdso.lds.S: remove hardcoded 0x800 .text start addr"), which placed .rodata directly after .dynamic by removing .eh_frame. This patch resolves the implicit inclusion into PT_DYNAMIC by explicitly specifying the :text output section phdr.

the `__runtime_fixup_32` function does not handle the case where `val` is zero correctly (as might occur when patching a nommu kernel and referring to a physical address below the 4GiB boundary whose upper 32 bits are all zero) because nothing in the existing logic prevents the code from taking the `else` branch of both nop-checks and emitting two `nop` instructions. This leaves random garbage in the register that is supposed to receive the upper 32 bits of the pointer instead of zero that when combined with the value for the lower 32 bits yields an invalid pointer and causes a kernel panic when that pointer is eventually accessed. The author clearly considered the fact that if the `lui` is converted into a `nop` that the second instruction needs to be adjusted to become an `li` instead of an `addi`, hence introducing the `addi_insn_mask` variable, but didn't follow that logic through fully to the case where the `else` branch executes. To fix it just adjust the logic to ensure that the second `else` branch is not taken if the first instruction will be patched to a `nop`.

…scall wrapper As recently pointed out by Thomas, if a register is forced for two different register variables, among them one is used as "+" (both input and output) and another is only used as input, Clang would treat the conflicting input parameters as undefined behaviour and optimize away the argument assignment. Instead use "=r" (only output) for the output parameter and "r" (only input) for the input parameter. While the example from the GCC documentation uses "0" for the input parameter, this is not necessary as confirmed by the GCC developers and "r" matches what the other architectures' vDSO implementations are using.

When running the raid6 user-space test program on RISC-V QEMU, there's a segmentation fault which seems caused by accessing a NULL pointer, which is the pointer variable p/q in raid6_rvv*_gen/xor_syndrome_real(), p/q should have been equal to dptr[x], but when I use GDB command to see its value, which was 0x10 like below: " Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0000000000011062 in raid6_rvv2_xor_syndrome_real (disks=<optimized out>, start=0, stop=<optimized out>, bytes=4096, ptrs=<optimized out>) at rvv.c:386 (gdb) p p $1 = (u8 *) 0x10 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0x10> " The issue was found to be related with: 1) Compile optimization There's no segmentation fault if compiling the raid6test program with the optimization flag -O0. 2) The RISC-V vector command vsetvli If not used t0 as the first parameter in vsetvli, there's no segmentation fault either. This patch selects the 2nd solution to fix the issue. [Palmer: The actual issue here is a missing clobber in the vsetvli code. It's a little tricky: we've already probed for VLENB so we don't need to look at the output register, we just need to have an X register in the instruction as that's the form required to actually set VL. Thus we clobber a register, and without describing that we end up breaking compilers.] Fixes: 6093faa ("raid6: Add RISC-V SIMD syndrome and recovery calculations") Signed-off-by: Chunyan Zhang <zhangchunyan@iscas.ac.cn> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250610101234.1100660-3-zhangchunyan@iscas.ac.cn Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@dabbelt.com>

After the combination of commit c217157 ("riscv: Implement HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS"), which starts using '-fpatchable-function-entry=M,N', and commit d0262e9 ("riscv: ftrace: support PREEMPT"), which allows CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE to be enabled by allmodconfig, allmodconfig builds with clang-16 begin crashing in the generic LLVM kCFI pass (see [1] for the stack trace). clang-17 avoids this crash by moving to target-specific lowering of the kCFI operand bundles [2]. Require clang-17 to select CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to avoid this crash.
