[PATCH 2/4] arm64: implement support for static call trampolines
From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Mon Oct 25 2021 - 08:21:17 EST
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx>
Implement arm64 support for the 'unoptimized' static call variety, which
routes all calls through a single trampoline that is patched to perform a
tail call to the selected function.
It is expected that the direct branch instruction will be able to cover
the common case. However, given that static call targets may be located
in modules loaded out of direct branching range, we need a fallback path
that loads the address into R16 and uses a branch-to-register (BR)
instruction to perform an indirect call.
Unlike on x86, there is no pressing need on arm64 to avoid indirect
calls at all cost, but hiding it from the compiler as is done here does
have some benefits:
- the literal is located in .text, which gives us the same robustness
advantage that code patching does;
- no performance hit on CFI enabled Clang builds that decorate compiler
emitted indirect calls with branch target validity checks.
