libs/libc/elf: Fix two ways an FDPIC module failed to relocate. Running one for the first time turned up two holes in the ET_DYN path. Neither shows up in a build. An undefined symbol is resolved with libelf_findglobal(), which searches only the table of globally registered symbols. The export table that exec() hands its caller went no further than the ET_REL path, so an ET_DYN module could not import anything the caller supplied. Invisible while such modules resolved everything internally; an FDPIC module imports its libc, and every import failed with "Unable to resolve addr of ext ref printf" although the caller had passed a table containing printf. The export table is now threaded into libelf_relocatedyn() and consulted when the global table has no answer, leaving the existing lookup order intact. A relocation naming a symbol defined inside the object was dropped silently. The code handles a relocation with no symbol, and one against an undefined symbol, but a defined symbol fell through both. That was harmless while every dynamic relocation arriving here had symbol index zero, which is the case for R_ARM_RELATIVE. FDPIC brings the first ones that do not: a pointer to a static function is emitted against the *section* symbol, so the value is the section base and the offset within it -- including the Thumb bit -- is carried as the addend. Deriving a value from the word being patched, as the no-symbol case does, would translate that addend as though it were an address. Confirmed against a real module: .text at 0x23c plus an addend of 0x95 gives 0x2d1, which is the function with its Thumb bit. Also stop libelf_symname() reporting a nameless symbol as an error. A section symbol has no name, and libelf_findsymbol() walks the whole table looking for optional entries such as nx_stacksize, so it meets these routinely and checks for -ESRCH itself. At error level it printed ten or more lines per module load and buried the diagnostics that matter. Built and run on lm3s6965-ek with the examples/elf ROMFS. The ET_REL test modules load as before, and an FDPIC module now loads, relocates, resolves printf and puts from the table exec() supplied, and calls through a function descriptor of its own.

libs/libc/machine/arm: Relocate FDPIC function descriptors. A function pointer under FDPIC is not a code address. Because each PT_LOAD segment is placed independently, a pointer has to carry the data base its callee will need, so it is a two-word descriptor: the entry point, and the base to install in the PIC register before branching. R_ARM_FUNCDESC_VALUE says "the thing you are patching is such a descriptor", and R_ARM_FUNCDESC says "manufacture one and give me its address". Both need state a relocation cannot carry. A descriptor's second word is the *object's* data base, from DT_PLTGOT, and R_ARM_FUNCDESC carves descriptors from a pool whose cursor has to survive from one relocation to the next. up_relocate() is handed only a relocation, a resolved symbol and an address to patch. arch_data is the existing channel for exactly this -- RISC-V already uses it to remember a HI20 relocation while its LO12 partner is processed -- but nothing has ever put loader state into it: it is declared zeroed and written only by up_relocate() itself. So ARCH_ELFDATA_INIT and ARCH_ELFDATA_FINI are added, seeding the block from the loadinfo before the relocation loop and reading the cursor back after. Both default to nothing, so an architecture that does not define them is unaffected, and RISC-V's use of arch_data is untouched. libelf_relocatedyn() walks both dynamic tables under one arch_data, so the cursor spans the whole object. The addend handling is the part that is easy to get wrong. REL format keeps the addend in place, in the word about to become the entry point, and a pointer to a static function is referenced through its *section* symbol -- the value is the section base and the offset, including the Thumb bit, is entirely in the addend. Dropping it yields an even address and the core faults trying to execute it as ARM code. The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

Both are set in libelf_loadfile(), after the sections are placed, so gotbase is the address the object will be read at rather than the one it was linked for. The GOT walk in libelf_loadfile() now runs only when there is a base, which also keeps it off an FDPIC object.

FAR struct mod_loadinfo_s *loadinfo,
libs/libc/elf: Fix two ways an FDPIC module failed to relocate. Running one for the first time turned up two holes in the ET_DYN path. Neither shows up in a build. An undefined symbol is resolved with libelf_findglobal(), which searches only the table of globally registered symbols. The export table that exec() hands its caller went no further than the ET_REL path, so an ET_DYN module could not import anything the caller supplied. Invisible while such modules resolved everything internally; an FDPIC module imports its libc, and every import failed with "Unable to resolve addr of ext ref printf" although the caller had passed a table containing printf. The export table is now threaded into libelf_relocatedyn() and consulted when the global table has no answer, leaving the existing lookup order intact. A relocation naming a symbol defined inside the object was dropped silently. The code handles a relocation with no symbol, and one against an undefined symbol, but a defined symbol fell through both. That was harmless while every dynamic relocation arriving here had symbol index zero, which is the case for R_ARM_RELATIVE. FDPIC brings the first ones that do not: a pointer to a static function is emitted against the *section* symbol, so the value is the section base and the offset within it -- including the Thumb bit -- is carried as the addend. Deriving a value from the word being patched, as the no-symbol case does, would translate that addend as though it were an address. Confirmed against a real module: .text at 0x23c plus an addend of 0x95 gives 0x2d1, which is the function with its Thumb bit. Also stop libelf_symname() reporting a nameless symbol as an error. A section symbol has no name, and libelf_findsymbol() walks the whole table looking for optional entries such as nx_stacksize, so it meets these routinely and checks for -ESRCH itself. At error level it printed ten or more lines per module load and buried the diagnostics that matter. Built and run on lm3s6965-ek with the examples/elf ROMFS. The ET_REL test modules load as before, and an FDPIC module now loads, relocates, resolves printf and puts from the table exec() supplied, and calls through a function descriptor of its own.

libs/libc/elf: Read the dynamic tags an FDPIC object needs. libelf_relocatedyn() reads the handful of DT_* tags it needs to walk the relocation tables and ignores the rest. Three more matter now. DT_PLTGOT is where the object's data base lives. An FDPIC module runs with that in the PIC base register, and every function descriptor built for it names the same base as the one its callee should run with, so without it there is nothing to put in a descriptor's second word. The DT_*_ARRAY tags are the constructor and destructor tables. These are already found through the section headers a few lines further down, and that path is kept, but the dynamic tags are the authoritative copy and an object is not obliged to carry section headers at all. Both paths now translate through libelf_addr(), so they agree on the answer rather than depending on which ran last. The tag values themselves were missing from include/elf.h and are added. Sizing the descriptor pool has to happen here rather than later. R_ARM_FUNCDESC asks the loader to manufacture a descriptor and hand back its address, which means the space must exist by the time the relocation is applied, and by then the segment has been placed. So libelf_elfsize() reserves it behind the writable data, bounded by the relocation count -- one relocation cannot ask for more than one descriptor. That bound has slack in it, but a descriptor is two words and modules are small, which is cheaper than walking every relocation twice to get an exact count. Nothing here runs for a non-FDPIC object.

libs/libc/machine/arm: Relocate FDPIC function descriptors. A function pointer under FDPIC is not a code address. Because each PT_LOAD segment is placed independently, a pointer has to carry the data base its callee will need, so it is a two-word descriptor: the entry point, and the base to install in the PIC register before branching. R_ARM_FUNCDESC_VALUE says "the thing you are patching is such a descriptor", and R_ARM_FUNCDESC says "manufacture one and give me its address". Both need state a relocation cannot carry. A descriptor's second word is the *object's* data base, from DT_PLTGOT, and R_ARM_FUNCDESC carves descriptors from a pool whose cursor has to survive from one relocation to the next. up_relocate() is handed only a relocation, a resolved symbol and an address to patch. arch_data is the existing channel for exactly this -- RISC-V already uses it to remember a HI20 relocation while its LO12 partner is processed -- but nothing has ever put loader state into it: it is declared zeroed and written only by up_relocate() itself. So ARCH_ELFDATA_INIT and ARCH_ELFDATA_FINI are added, seeding the block from the loadinfo before the relocation loop and reading the cursor back after. Both default to nothing, so an architecture that does not define them is unaffected, and RISC-V's use of arch_data is untouched. libelf_relocatedyn() walks both dynamic tables under one arch_data, so the cursor spans the whole object. The addend handling is the part that is easy to get wrong. REL format keeps the addend in place, in the word about to become the entry point, and a pointer to a static function is referenced through its *section* symbol -- the value is the section base and the offset, including the Thumb bit, is entirely in the addend. Dropping it yields an even address and the core faults trying to execute it as ARM code. The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

libs/libc/machine/arm: Relocate FDPIC function descriptors. A function pointer under FDPIC is not a code address. Because each PT_LOAD segment is placed independently, a pointer has to carry the data base its callee will need, so it is a two-word descriptor: the entry point, and the base to install in the PIC register before branching. R_ARM_FUNCDESC_VALUE says "the thing you are patching is such a descriptor", and R_ARM_FUNCDESC says "manufacture one and give me its address". Both need state a relocation cannot carry. A descriptor's second word is the *object's* data base, from DT_PLTGOT, and R_ARM_FUNCDESC carves descriptors from a pool whose cursor has to survive from one relocation to the next. up_relocate() is handed only a relocation, a resolved symbol and an address to patch. arch_data is the existing channel for exactly this -- RISC-V already uses it to remember a HI20 relocation while its LO12 partner is processed -- but nothing has ever put loader state into it: it is declared zeroed and written only by up_relocate() itself. So ARCH_ELFDATA_INIT and ARCH_ELFDATA_FINI are added, seeding the block from the loadinfo before the relocation loop and reading the cursor back after. Both default to nothing, so an architecture that does not define them is unaffected, and RISC-V's use of arch_data is untouched. libelf_relocatedyn() walks both dynamic tables under one arch_data, so the cursor spans the whole object. The addend handling is the part that is easy to get wrong. REL format keeps the addend in place, in the word about to become the entry point, and a pointer to a static function is referenced through its *section* symbol -- the value is the section base and the offset, including the Thumb bit, is entirely in the addend. Dropping it yields an even address and the core faults trying to execute it as ARM code. The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

libs/libc/elf: Fix two ways an FDPIC module failed to relocate. Running one for the first time turned up two holes in the ET_DYN path. Neither shows up in a build. An undefined symbol is resolved with libelf_findglobal(), which searches only the table of globally registered symbols. The export table that exec() hands its caller went no further than the ET_REL path, so an ET_DYN module could not import anything the caller supplied. Invisible while such modules resolved everything internally; an FDPIC module imports its libc, and every import failed with "Unable to resolve addr of ext ref printf" although the caller had passed a table containing printf. The export table is now threaded into libelf_relocatedyn() and consulted when the global table has no answer, leaving the existing lookup order intact. A relocation naming a symbol defined inside the object was dropped silently. The code handles a relocation with no symbol, and one against an undefined symbol, but a defined symbol fell through both. That was harmless while every dynamic relocation arriving here had symbol index zero, which is the case for R_ARM_RELATIVE. FDPIC brings the first ones that do not: a pointer to a static function is emitted against the *section* symbol, so the value is the section base and the offset within it -- including the Thumb bit -- is carried as the addend. Deriving a value from the word being patched, as the no-symbol case does, would translate that addend as though it were an address. Confirmed against a real module: .text at 0x23c plus an addend of 0x95 gives 0x2d1, which is the function with its Thumb bit. Also stop libelf_symname() reporting a nameless symbol as an error. A section symbol has no name, and libelf_findsymbol() walks the whole table looking for optional entries such as nx_stacksize, so it meets these routinely and checks for -ESRCH itself. At error level it printed ten or more lines per module load and buried the diagnostics that matter. Built and run on lm3s6965-ek with the examples/elf ROMFS. The ET_REL test modules load as before, and an FDPIC module now loads, relocates, resolves printf and puts from the table exec() supplied, and calls through a function descriptor of its own.

libs/libc/machine/arm: Relocate FDPIC function descriptors. A function pointer under FDPIC is not a code address. Because each PT_LOAD segment is placed independently, a pointer has to carry the data base its callee will need, so it is a two-word descriptor: the entry point, and the base to install in the PIC register before branching. R_ARM_FUNCDESC_VALUE says "the thing you are patching is such a descriptor", and R_ARM_FUNCDESC says "manufacture one and give me its address". Both need state a relocation cannot carry. A descriptor's second word is the *object's* data base, from DT_PLTGOT, and R_ARM_FUNCDESC carves descriptors from a pool whose cursor has to survive from one relocation to the next. up_relocate() is handed only a relocation, a resolved symbol and an address to patch. arch_data is the existing channel for exactly this -- RISC-V already uses it to remember a HI20 relocation while its LO12 partner is processed -- but nothing has ever put loader state into it: it is declared zeroed and written only by up_relocate() itself. So ARCH_ELFDATA_INIT and ARCH_ELFDATA_FINI are added, seeding the block from the loadinfo before the relocation loop and reading the cursor back after. Both default to nothing, so an architecture that does not define them is unaffected, and RISC-V's use of arch_data is untouched. libelf_relocatedyn() walks both dynamic tables under one arch_data, so the cursor spans the whole object. The addend handling is the part that is easy to get wrong. REL format keeps the addend in place, in the word about to become the entry point, and a pointer to a static function is referenced through its *section* symbol -- the value is the section base and the offset, including the Thumb bit, is entirely in the addend. Dropping it yields an even address and the core faults trying to execute it as ARM code. The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

libs/libc/elf: Translate link-time addresses through one place. The ET_DYN path computes run-time addresses from link-time ones in five places, each open-coding the arithmetic, and two of them disagree about how: libelf_relocatedyn() adds textalloc to a relocation's r_offset in one branch and subtracts datasec before adding datastart in the next, while the value translation a few lines further down picks between those two forms with an explicit test on datasec. Collect that into libelf_addr(), which makes the test once: an address below the data segment's link-time base belongs to text, anything at or above it to data. This changes nothing today. libelf_elfsize() sets segpad = datasec - (text_vaddr + textsize) and libelf_load() then places datastart = textalloc + textsize + segpad so datastart - datasec is textalloc, and the data branch reduces to textalloc + vaddr -- exactly what the text branch returns, and exactly what adding a single load bias did before. The two forms are the same arithmetic written twice. They stop being the same once text and data are placed independently, which is what an FDPIC object requires: its two PT_LOAD segments are relocated separately so that the read-only one can be mapped in place on the media while only the writable one is copied.

libs/libc/machine/arm: Relocate FDPIC function descriptors. A function pointer under FDPIC is not a code address. Because each PT_LOAD segment is placed independently, a pointer has to carry the data base its callee will need, so it is a two-word descriptor: the entry point, and the base to install in the PIC register before branching. R_ARM_FUNCDESC_VALUE says "the thing you are patching is such a descriptor", and R_ARM_FUNCDESC says "manufacture one and give me its address". Both need state a relocation cannot carry. A descriptor's second word is the *object's* data base, from DT_PLTGOT, and R_ARM_FUNCDESC carves descriptors from a pool whose cursor has to survive from one relocation to the next. up_relocate() is handed only a relocation, a resolved symbol and an address to patch. arch_data is the existing channel for exactly this -- RISC-V already uses it to remember a HI20 relocation while its LO12 partner is processed -- but nothing has ever put loader state into it: it is declared zeroed and written only by up_relocate() itself. So ARCH_ELFDATA_INIT and ARCH_ELFDATA_FINI are added, seeding the block from the loadinfo before the relocation loop and reading the cursor back after. Both default to nothing, so an architecture that does not define them is unaffected, and RISC-V's use of arch_data is untouched. libelf_relocatedyn() walks both dynamic tables under one arch_data, so the cursor spans the whole object. The addend handling is the part that is easy to get wrong. REL format keeps the addend in place, in the word about to become the entry point, and a pointer to a static function is referenced through its *section* symbol -- the value is the section base and the offset, including the Thumb bit, is entirely in the addend. Dropping it yields an even address and the core faults trying to execute it as ARM code. The GOT written into a descriptor is the loading object's own, even for an imported function, which is what makes a callback work: when the base firmware's qsort() calls back into a module's comparison function, the module needs its own data base in the PIC register. libelf_relocatedyn()'s imported-symbol path needed a change to suit. It stores the resolved address directly and never calls up_relocate(), which cannot produce a two-word descriptor, so under FDPIC the resolved value now goes through up_relocate() and the relocation type decides what to write. Implemented for armv7-m and armv8-m, the profiles FDPIC targets; the other ARM variants gain the arch_data block but no new relocations. Built and booted mps3-an547:picostest and lm3s6965-ek:qemu-nxflat, the ELF PIC and NXFLAT users of this code, both unchanged.

case SHT_DYNAMIC:
libs/libc/elf: Fix two ways an FDPIC module failed to relocate. Running one for the first time turned up two holes in the ET_DYN path. Neither shows up in a build. An undefined symbol is resolved with libelf_findglobal(), which searches only the table of globally registered symbols. The export table that exec() hands its caller went no further than the ET_REL path, so an ET_DYN module could not import anything the caller supplied. Invisible while such modules resolved everything internally; an FDPIC module imports its libc, and every import failed with "Unable to resolve addr of ext ref printf" although the caller had passed a table containing printf. The export table is now threaded into libelf_relocatedyn() and consulted when the global table has no answer, leaving the existing lookup order intact. A relocation naming a symbol defined inside the object was dropped silently. The code handles a relocation with no symbol, and one against an undefined symbol, but a defined symbol fell through both. That was harmless while every dynamic relocation arriving here had symbol index zero, which is the case for R_ARM_RELATIVE. FDPIC brings the first ones that do not: a pointer to a static function is emitted against the *section* symbol, so the value is the section base and the offset within it -- including the Thumb bit -- is carried as the addend. Deriving a value from the word being patched, as the no-symbol case does, would translate that addend as though it were an address. Confirmed against a real module: .text at 0x23c plus an addend of 0x95 gives 0x2d1, which is the function with its Thumb bit. Also stop libelf_symname() reporting a nameless symbol as an error. A section symbol has no name, and libelf_findsymbol() walks the whole table looking for optional entries such as nx_stacksize, so it meets these routinely and checks for -ESRCH itself. At error level it printed ten or more lines per module load and buried the diagnostics that matter. Built and run on lm3s6965-ek with the examples/elf ROMFS. The ET_REL test modules load as before, and an FDPIC module now loads, relocates, resolves printf and puts from the table exec() supplied, and calls through a function descriptor of its own.

libs/libc/elf: Translate link-time addresses through one place. The ET_DYN path computes run-time addresses from link-time ones in five places, each open-coding the arithmetic, and two of them disagree about how: libelf_relocatedyn() adds textalloc to a relocation's r_offset in one branch and subtracts datasec before adding datastart in the next, while the value translation a few lines further down picks between those two forms with an explicit test on datasec. Collect that into libelf_addr(), which makes the test once: an address below the data segment's link-time base belongs to text, anything at or above it to data. This changes nothing today. libelf_elfsize() sets segpad = datasec - (text_vaddr + textsize) and libelf_load() then places datastart = textalloc + textsize + segpad so datastart - datasec is textalloc, and the data branch reduces to textalloc + vaddr -- exactly what the text branch returns, and exactly what adding a single load bias did before. The two forms are the same arithmetic written twice. They stop being the same once text and data are placed independently, which is what an FDPIC object requires: its two PT_LOAD segments are relocated separately so that the read-only one can be mapped in place on the media while only the writable one is copied. Having the translation in one function is what makes that possible without auditing every open-coded expression again. Built for mps3-an547:picostest, which is CONFIG_ELF with CONFIG_PIC, and boots identically to the same configuration without this change.

The ET_DYN path computes run-time addresses from link-time ones in five places, each open-coding the arithmetic, and two of them disagree about how: libelf_relocatedyn() adds textalloc to a relocation's r_offset in one branch and subtracts datasec before adding datastart in the next, while the value translation a few lines further down picks between those two forms with an explicit test on datasec. Collect that into libelf_addr(), which makes the test once: an address below the data segment's link-time base belongs to text, anything at or above it to data. This changes nothing today. libelf_elfsize() sets segpad = datasec - (text_vaddr + textsize) and libelf_load() then places datastart = textalloc + textsize + segpad so datastart - datasec is textalloc, and the data branch reduces to textalloc + vaddr -- exactly what the text branch returns, and exactly what adding a single load bias did before. The two forms are the same arithmetic written twice. They stop being the same once text and data are placed independently, which is what an FDPIC object requires: its two PT_LOAD segments are relocated separately so that the read-only one can be mapped in place on the media while only the writable one is copied. Having the translation in one function is what makes that possible without auditing every open-coded expression again. Built for mps3-an547:picostest, which is CONFIG_ELF with CONFIG_PIC, and boots identically to the same configuration without this change.
