When building with KASAN and LKDTM, clang may implictly generate an asan.module_ctor function in the LKDTM rodata object. The Makefile moves the lkdtm_rodata_do_nothing() function into .rodata by renaming the file's .text section to .rodata, and consequently also moves the ctor function into .rodata, leading to a boot time crash (splat below) when the ctor is invoked by do_ctors().
Let's prevent this by marking the function as noinstr rather than notrace, and renaming the file's .noinstr.text to .rodata. Marking the function as noinstr will prevent tracing and kprobes, and will inhibit any undesireable compiler instrumentation.
The ctor function (if any) will be placed in .text and will work correctly.

Oh, eek. Why was a ctor generated at all? But yes, this looks good. Greg, can you pick this up please?
Acked-by: Kees Cook keescook@chromium.org
Now picked up, thanks.
Can this be backported to 5.4 and 5.10 stable trees? I just ran across this trying to use kasan on 5.4 with lkdtm and it blows up early. This patch applies on 5.4 cleanly but doesn't compile because it's missing noinstr. Here's a version of the patch that introduces noinstr on 5.4.97 so this patch can be picked to 5.4 stable trees.
----8<---- From: Thomas Gleixner tglx@linutronix.de Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2020 22:47:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] vmlinux.lds.h: Create section for protection against instrumentation
commit 6553896666433e7efec589838b400a2a652b3ffa upstream.
Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected against instrumentation for various reasons:
- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.
Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check later.
Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end()
These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls into regular instrumentable text section as safe.
The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a kernel compiled with this option.
