After direct call is enabled for arm64, ftrace selftest enters a dead loop:
IIUC this means that patch 1 alone is broken, and presumably this patch should have been part of it?
<trace_selftest_dynamic_test_func>: 00 bti c 01 mov x9, x30 <trace_direct_tramp>: 02 bl <trace_direct_tramp> ----------> ret | lr/x30 is 03, return to 03 | 03 mov w0, #0x0 <-----------------------------| | | | dead loop! | | | 04 ret ---- lr/x30 is still 03, go back to 03 ----|
The reason is that when the direct caller trace_direct_tramp() returns to the patched function trace_selftest_dynamic_test_func(), lr is still the address after the instrumented instruction in the patched function, so when the patched function exits, it returns to itself!
To fix this issue, we need to restore lr before trace_direct_tramp() exits, so rewrite a dedicated trace_direct_tramp() for arm64.
As mentioned on patch 1 I'd prefer we solved this through indirection, which would avoid the need for this and would make things more robust generally by keeping the unusual calling convention private to the patch-site and regular trampoline.
Thanks, Mark.
