Hi there,
Am researching using the cool faddr2line script to help debug Oops'es
from kernel modules..
I find it works just fine when used against the unstripped vmlinux
with debug symbols.
My use case is for a kernel module which Oopses, though. Here's my scenario:
I built a module on a custom debug kernel (5.10.60) with most debug
options enabled...
KASLR is enabled by default as well.
A test kernel module Oopses on my x86_64 guest running this kernel with:
RIP: 0010:do_the_work+0x15b/0x174 [oops_tryv2]
So, i try this:
$ <...>/linux-5.10.60/scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko do_the_work+0x15b/0x174
bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000
$
(It works fine with addr2line though!).
Now I think I've traced the faddr2line script's failure to locate
anything down to this:
...
done < <(${NM} -n $objfile | awk -v fn=$func -v end=$file_end '$3 ==
fn { found=1; line =$0; start=$1; next } found == 1 { found=0;
print line, "0x"$1 } END {if (found == 1) print line, end; }')
The nm output is:
$ nm -n ./oops_tryv2.ko |grep -i do_the_work
0000000000000000 t do_the_work
$
nm shows the text addr as 0x0; this is obviously incorrect (same 0x0
with objdump -d on the module).
Am I missing something? Any suggestions as to what I can try, to get
faddr2line working?
TIA,
Regards,
Kaiwan.

Hi Kaiwan,
Thanks for reporting this issue. The module text address of 0x0 is not
necessarily incorrect, as the address is relative the the module, where
all text usually starts at zero.
I was able to recreate this problem using a module which only has a
single function in .text. Does this fix it?

Actually, that patch has other problems. Try this one?

From: Josh Poimboeuf <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH] scripts/faddr2line: Only look for text symbols when
calculating function size
With the following commit:
efdb4167e676 ("scripts/faddr2line: Fix "size mismatch" error")
... it was discovered that faddr2line can't just read a function's ELF
size, because that wouldn't match the kallsyms function size which is
printed in the stack trace. The kallsyms size includes any padding
after the function, whereas the ELF size does not.
So faddr2line has to manually calculate the size of a function similar
to how kallsyms does. It does so by starting with a sorted list of
symbols and subtracting the function address from the subsequent
symbol's address.
That calculation is broken in the case where the function is the last
(or only) symbol in the .text section. The next symbol in the sorted
list might actually be a data symbol, which can break the function size
detection:
$ scripts/faddr2line sound/soundcore.ko sound_devnode+0x5/0x35
bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000
Similar breakage can occur when reading from a .o file.
Fix it by only looking for text symbols.

Hi Josh,
Actually your first patch - the one you mentioned had other issues -
worked perfectly when applied:
scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko do_the_work+0x16f/0x194
do_the_work+0x16f/0x0000000000000194:
do_the_work at <...>/oops_tryv2/oops_tryv2.c:62
The second one still failed in the same manner:
scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko do_the_work+0x16f/0x194
bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000
So, is it possible to fixup issues with the first version?
What are these issues?
Thanks,
Kaiwan.

The first patch basically reverts the fix in commit efdb4167e676
("scripts/faddr2line: Fix "size mismatch" error"). That would be nice
as it's simpler and more robust, but unfortunately it would cause a lot
of "size mismatch" errors with vmlinux symbols.
Can you give the output of 'nm -n ./oops_tryv2.ko'? There must be some
text symbol immediately after the do_the_work() symbol which is either
out of order, or part of another section.
Is do_the_work() in the .text section?

I see... if it comes to it, could there be a workaround where the
script detects a vmlinux image and works in a given manner,
else in this manner for other images - in effect, for modules?

Yes...
Here's the output I get:
$ nm -n ./oops_tryv2.ko |grep -C5 do_the_work

I think I misspoke about the vmlinux behavior being different, so I
don't think that would work.

Ok, it looks like the symbols aren't sorted like the code expects. I
need to do a more robust fix.

Ok, please try this instead. This takes a much more robust approach to
the function size calculation, using readelf to confine the symbol
search to the section matching the original symbol.
This actually has multiple fixes and cleanups, so it'll eventually be
split up into a patch set.

Great. Am facing a few issues though:
1. Not sure if it's me but am having issues applying your patches; it
seems to fail:
$ patch -p1 --dry-run < ./fa1.patch
checking file scripts/faddr2line
Hunk #1 FAILED at 97.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 110.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 189.
3 out of 3 hunks FAILED
$
Against which ver are you generating the patch?
(Am using 5.10.60; i noticed the last commit in mainline was f5f67cc
in Nov 2018, so vanilla 5.10.60 should be fine, no?).
2. I manually applied your patch :) This is the output I then get:
$ <...>linux-5.10.60/scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko do_the_work+0x16f/0x194
awk: not an option: --bignum
bad symbol size: addr: 0x0000000000000000
$
(Not sure if this helps but am running on Ubuntu 20.04; my awk is mawk
v 1.3.4.20200120-2).
Thanks,
Kaiwan.

Hm, did you happen to have the older patch already applied? This should
be applied instead of that one. Though it's definitely possible I
messed the patch up somehow.
When saving the patch, make sure to preserve the original whitespace.
I'm adding the new patch here as an attachment, if that helps.

It was against a newer kernel, but yes, applying it against 5.10.60
should also work.

Sorry, I didn't realize mawk was still a thing :-)
Try this one?

That helped! I think my stubbornly using Gmail perhaps caused issues
when i copy-pasted the earlier patches... thanks.

Definitely better !
This is the o/p i now get:
$ <...>linux-5.10.60/scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko
do_the_work.cold+0x68/0x126
do_the_work.cold+0x68/0x126:
delay_sec at <...>/oops_tryv2/../../convenient.h:279
$
The source file+line-no doesn't show up here though... (as it's a foo.cold()?).
(I'm unsure why the line delay_sec at <...>convenient.h:279 shows up
; i don't call this delay_sec() func directly... anyway, that's my
problem.)
Thanks.

Hi Josh,
<gentle ping>
I understand you must be busy, just checking...
any update on the faddr2line script?
Thanks,

addr2line works correctly.
And, so does the patched faddr2line, when i tried it out now on
another VM! Lemme check some more and get back, thanks.

It works !
$ .../linux-5.10.60/scripts/faddr2line ./oops_tryv2.ko do_the_work+0x124
do_the_work+0x124/0x15e:
do_the_work at .../oops_tryv2.c:62
$
Will you now upstream this patch?
Thanks!
