addend_arm_rel() processes R_ARM_THM_CALL, R_ARM_THM_JUMP24,
R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 in a wrong way.
Here, test code.
[test code for R_ARM_THM_JUMP24]
.section .init.text,"ax"
bar:
bx lr
.section .text,"ax"
.globl foo
foo:
b bar
[test code for R_ARM_THM_CALL]
.section .init.text,"ax"
bar:
bx lr
.section .text,"ax"
.globl foo
foo:
push {lr}
bl bar
pop {pc}
If you compile it with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y, modpost will show the
symbol name, (unknown).
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: foo (section: .text) -> (unknown) (section: .init.text)
(You need to use GNU linker instead of LLD to reproduce it.)
Fix the code to make modpost show the correct symbol name. I checked
arch/arm/kernel/module.c to learn the encoding of R_ARM_THM_CALL and
R_ARM_THM_JUMP24. The module does not support R_ARM_THM_JUMP19, but
I checked its encoding in ARM ARM.
The '+4' is the compensation for pc-relative instruction. It is
documented in "ELF for the Arm Architecture" [1].
"If the relocation is pc-relative then compensation for the PC bias
(the PC value is 8 bytes ahead of the executing instruction in Arm
state and 4 bytes in Thumb state) must be encoded in the relocation
by the object producer."
