[PATCH v9 0/6] Introduce 64b relocatable kernel

[Alexandre Ghiti]

After multiple attempts, this patchset is now based on the fact that the
64b kernel mapping was moved outside the linear mapping.

The first patch allows to build relocatable kernels but is not selected
by default. That patch is a requirement for KASLR.
The second and third patches take advantage of an already existing powerpc
script that checks relocations at compile-time, and uses it for riscv.

This patchset is rebased on top of:

riscv: Use PUD/P4D/PGD pages for the linear mapping
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-riscv/list/?series=733603)
base-commit-tag: v6.3-rc1

Changes in v9:
  * Fix gcc/llvm compilation errors by adding patch 1, thanks to Bjorn
  * Move a patch to move rela.dyn outside of init (patch 2): it is a
    separate patch to clearly explain why
  * To effectively move rela.dyn to init, we need to add patch 6: separate patch since we may be
    able at some point to revert (along with patch 2).
  * Add a lot of orphan sections to the linker script

Changes in v8:
  * Fix UEFI boot by moving rela.dyn section into the data so that PE/COFF
    loader actually copies the relocations too
  * Fix check that used PGDIR instead of PUD which was not correct
    for sv48 and sv57
  * Fix PE/COFF header data size definition as it led to size of 0

Changes in v7:
  * Rebase on top of v5.15
  * Fix LDFLAGS_vmlinux which was overriden when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE was
    set
  * Make relocate_kernel static
  * Add Ack from Michael

Changes in v6:
  * Remove the kernel move to vmalloc zone
  * Rebased on top of for-next
  * Remove relocatable property from 32b kernel as the kernel is mapped in
    the linear mapping and would then need to be copied physically too
  * CONFIG_RELOCATABLE depends on !XIP_KERNEL
  * Remove Reviewed-by from first patch as it changed a bit

Changes in v5:
  * Add "static __init" to create_kernel_page_table function as reported by
    Kbuild test robot
  * Add reviewed-by from Zong
  * Rebase onto v5.7

Changes in v4:
  * Fix BPF region that overlapped with kernel's as suggested by Zong
  * Fix end of module region that could be larger than 2GB as suggested by Zong
  * Fix the size of the vm area reserved for the kernel as we could lose
    PMD_SIZE if the size was already aligned on PMD_SIZE
  * Split compile time relocations check patch into 2 patches as suggested by Anup
  * Applied Reviewed-by from Zong and Anup

Changes in v3:
  * Move kernel mapping to vmalloc

Changes in v2:
  * Make RELOCATABLE depend on MMU as suggested by Anup
  * Rename kernel_load_addr into kernel_virt_addr as suggested by Anup
  * Use __pa_symbol instead of __pa, as suggested by Zong
  * Rebased on top of v5.6-rc3
  * Tested with sv48 patchset
  * Add Reviewed/Tested-by from Zong and Anup

Alexandre Ghiti (6):
  riscv: Prepare EFI header for relocatable kernels

  riscv: Introduce CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
  powerpc: Move script to check relocations at compile time in scripts/
  riscv: Check relocations at compile time
  riscv: Use --emit-relocs in order to move .rela.dyn in init
