2022-05-16kselftest/arm64: Explicitly build no BTI tests with BTI disabledMark Brown1-1/+1
In case a distribution enables branch protection by default do as we do for the main kernel and explicitly disable branch protection when building the test case for having BTI disabled to ensure it doesn't get turned on by the toolchain defaults.

2022-05-16kselftest/arm64: bti: force static linkingAndre Przywara1-2/+2
The "bti" selftests are built with -nostdlib, which apparently automatically creates a statically linked binary, which is what we want and need for BTI (to avoid interactions with the dynamic linker). However this is not true when building a PIE binary, which some toolchains (Ubuntu) configure as the default. When compiling btitest with such a toolchain, it will create a dynamically linked binary, which will probably fail some tests, as the dynamic linker might not support BTI: =================== TAP version 13 1..18 not ok 1 nohint_func/call_using_br_x0 not ok 2 nohint_func/call_using_br_x16 not ok 3 nohint_func/call_using_blr .... =================== To make sure we create static binaries, add an explicit -static on the linker command line. This forces static linking even if the toolchain defaults to PIE builds, and fixes btitest runs on BTI enabled machines.

2021-05-10kselftest/arm64: Add missing stddef.h include to BTI testsMark Brown1-0/+1
Explicitly include stddef.h when building the BTI tests so that we have a definition of NULL, with at least some toolchains this is not done implicitly by anything else: test.c: In function ‘start’: test.c:214:25: error: ‘NULL’ undeclared (first use in this function) 214 | sigaction(SIGILL, &sa, NULL); | ^~~~ test.c:20:1: note: ‘NULL’ is defined in header ‘<stddef.h>’; did you forget to ‘#include <stddef.h>’?

2021-03-24kselftest: arm64: Add BTI testsMark Brown15-0/+636
Add some tests that verify that BTI functions correctly for static binaries built with and without BTI support, verifying that SIGILL is generated when expected and is not generated in other situations. Since BTI support is still being rolled out in distributions these tests are built entirely free standing, no libc support is used at all so none of the standard helper functions for kselftest can be used and we open code everything. This also means we aren't testing the kernel support for the dynamic linker, though the test program can be readily adapted for that once it becomes something that we can reliably build and run. These tests were originally written by Dave Martin, I've adapted them for kselftest, mainly around the build system and the output format.
