Changes: - patch v2: - Adapt patch to work post KPTI and compiler changes - Redo all performance testing with latest configs and compilers - Simplify mov macro on PIE (MOVABS now) - Reduce GOT footprint - patch v1: - Simplify ftrace implementation. - Use gcc mstack-protector-guard-reg=%gs with PIE when possible. - rfc v3: - Use --emit-relocs instead of -pie to reduce

These patches make the changes necessary to build the kernel as Position Independent Executable (PIE) on x86_64. A PIE kernel can be relocated below the top 2G of the virtual address space. It allows to optionally extend the KASLR randomization range from 1G to 3G. Thanks a lot to Ard Biesheuvel & Kees Cook on their feedback on compiler changes, PIE support and KASLR in general. Thanks to

Changes: - patch v3: - Update on message to describe longer term PIE goal. - Minor change on ftrace if condition. - Changed code using xchgq. - patch v2: - Adapt patch to work post KPTI and compiler changes - Redo all performance testing with latest configs and compilers - Simplify mov macro on PIE (MOVABS now) - Reduce GOT footprint - patch v1: - Simplify ftrace

Changes: - patch v1: - Simplify ftrace implementation. - Use gcc mstack-protector-guard-reg=%gs with PIE when possible. - rfc v3: - Use --emit-relocs instead of -pie to reduce dynamic relocation space on mapped memory. It also simplifies the relocation process. - Move the start the module section next to the kernel. Remove the need for -mcmodel=large on modules. Extends
