Subject: [PATCH 02/12] arm64: alternatives: Add dynamic patching feature
Git-commit: dea5e2a4c5bcf196f879a66cebdcca07793e8ba4
Patch-mainline: v4.17-rc1
References: bsc#1085308
We've so far relied on a patching infrastructure that only gave us
a single alternative, without any way to provide a range of potential
replacement instructions. For a single feature, this is an all or
nothing thing.
It would be interesting to have a more flexible grained way of patching
the kernel though, where we could dynamically tune the code that gets
injected.
In order to achive this, let's introduce a new form of dynamic patching,
assiciating a callback to a patching site. This callback gets source and
target locations of the patching request, as well as the number of
instructions to be patched.
Dynamic patching is declared with the new ALTERNATIVE_CB and alternative_cb
directives:
asm volatile(ALTERNATIVE_CB("mov %0, #0\n", callback)
: "r" (v));
or
alternative_cb callback
mov x0, #0
alternative_cb_end
where callback is the C function computing the alternative.
