The KCOV handler __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() uses the PACA, so initialise the PACA first. This fixes a hang during boot when KASAN and KCOV are both enabled, where the coverage tracer in kasan_early_init() tries to access a field of the (currently null) PACA.
Signed-off-by: Benjamin Gray <bg...@linux.ibm.com> --- I tried annotating kasan_early_init() with 'notrace', but it still seemed to hang. It would also be less robust, because kasan_early_init() may in future call generic code that should keep coverage. --- arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S | 3 --- arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c | 4 ++++ 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S b/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S index f132d8704263..21a78a849ca8 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S @@ -1004,9 +1004,6 @@ start_here_multiplatform: * and SLB setup before we turn on relocation. */ -#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN - bl CFUNC(kasan_early_init) -#endif /* Restore parameters passed from prom_init/kexec */ mr r3,r31 LOAD_REG_ADDR(r12, DOTSYM(early_setup)) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c index 246201d0d879..a3f5decbc041 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c @@ -369,6 +369,10 @@ void __init early_setup(unsigned long dt_ptr) /* -------- printk is now safe to use ------- */ +#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN + kasan_early_init(); +#endif + if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64) && (mfmsr() & MSR_HV)) enable_machine_check(); -- 2.41.0
