There are three usercopy warnings which are currently being silenced for gcc 4.6 and newer: 1) "copy_from_user() buffer size is too small" compile warning/error This is a static warning which happens when object size and copy size are both const, and copy size > object size. I didn't see any false positives for this one. So the function warning attribute seems to be working fine here. Note this scenario is always a bug and so I think it should be changed to *always* be an error, regardless of CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS. 2) "copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct" compile warning This is another static warning which happens when I enable __compiletime_object_size() for new compilers (and CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS). It happens when object size is const, but copy size is *not*. In this case there's no way to compare the two at build time, so it gives the warning. (Note the warning is a byproduct of the fact that gcc has no way of knowing whether the overflow function will be called, so the call isn't dead code and the warning attribute is activated.) So this warning seems to only indicate "this is an unusual pattern, maybe you should check it out" rather than "this is a bug". I get 102(!) of these warnings with allyesconfig and the __compiletime_object_size() gcc check removed. I don't know if there are any real bugs hiding in there, but from looking at a small sample, I didn't see any. According to Kees, it does sometimes find real bugs. But the false positive rate seems high. 3) "Buffer overflow detected" runtime warning This is a runtime warning where object size is const, and copy size > object size. All three warnings (both static and runtime) were completely disabled for gcc 4.6 with the following commit: 2fb0815c ("gcc4: disable __compiletime_object_size for GCC 4.6+") That commit mistakenly assumed that the false positives were caused by a gcc bug in __compiletime_object_size(). But in fact, __compiletime_object_size() seems to be working fine. The false positives were instead triggered by #2 above. (Though I don't have an explanation for why the warnings supposedly only started showing up in gcc 4.6.) So remove warning #2 to get rid of all the false positives, and re-enable warnings #1 and #3 by reverting the above commit. Furthermore, since #1 is a real bug which is detected at compile time, upgrade it to always be an error. Having done all that, CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS is no longer needed.

For more targeted fuzzing, it's better to disable kernel-wide instrumentation and instead enable it on a per-subsystem basis. This follows the pattern of UBSAN and allows you to compile in the kcov driver without instrumenting the whole kernel. To instrument a part of the kernel, you can use either # for a single file in the current directory KCOV_INSTRUMENT_filename.o := y or # for all the files in the current directory (excluding subdirectories) KCOV_INSTRUMENT := y or # (same as above) ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV) or # for all the files in the current directory (including subdirectories) subdir-ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1464008380-11405-1-git-send-email-vegard.nossum@oracle.comSigned-off-by: NVegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

That file may define its own versions of various functions, and define HAVE_* symbols (no CONFIG_ prefix!) to suppress the generic ones. Included is a self-test (in lib/test_hash.c) that verifies the basics. It is NOT in general required that the arch-specific functions compute the same thing as the generic, but if a HAVE_* symbol is defined with the value 1, then equality is tested.

Nothing prevents a dentry found by path lookup before a return of __debugfs_remove() to actually get opened after that return. Now, after the return of __debugfs_remove(), there are no guarantees whatsoever regarding the memory the corresponding inode's file_operations object had been kept in. Since __debugfs_remove() is seldomly invoked, usually from module exit handlers only, the race is hard to trigger and the impact is very low. A discussion of the problem outlined above as well as a suggested solution can be found in the (sub-)thread rooted at http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20130401203445.GA20862@ZenIV.linux.org.uk ("Yet another pipe related oops.") Basically, Greg KH suggests to introduce an intermediate fops and Al Viro points out that a pointer to the original ones may be stored in ->d_fsdata. Follow this line of reasoning: - Add SRCU as a reverse dependency of DEBUG_FS. - Introduce a srcu_struct object for the debugfs subsystem. - In debugfs_create_file(), store a pointer to the original file_operations object in ->d_fsdata. - Make debugfs_remove() and debugfs_remove_recursive() wait for a SRCU grace period after the dentry has been delete()'d and before they return to their callers. - Introduce an intermediate file_operations object named "debugfs_open_proxy_file_operations". It's ->open() functions checks, under the protection of a SRCU read lock, whether the dentry is still alive, i.e. has not been d_delete()'d and if so, tries to acquire a reference on the owning module. On success, it sets the file object's ->f_op to the original file_operations and forwards the ongoing open() call to the original ->open(). - For clarity, rename the former debugfs_file_operations to debugfs_noop_file_operations -- they are in no way canonical. The choice of SRCU over "normal" RCU is justified by the fact, that the former may also be used to protect ->i_private data from going away during the execution of a file's readers and writers which may (and do) sleep. Finally, introduce the fs/debugfs/internal.h header containing some declarations internal to the debugfs implementation.

kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible. Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior (UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected) __ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message. So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements ubsan handlers printing errors.

This patch adds a third argument to macros which create function definitions for page flags. This argument defines how page-flags helpers behave on compound functions. For now we define four policies: - PF_ANY: the helper function operates on the page it gets, regardless if it's non-compound, head or tail. - PF_HEAD: the helper function operates on the head page of the compound page if it gets tail page. - PF_NO_TAIL: only head and non-compond pages are acceptable for this helper function. - PF_NO_COMPOUND: only non-compound pages are acceptable for this helper function. For now we use policy PF_ANY for all helpers, which matches current behaviour. We do not enforce the policy for TESTPAGEFLAG, because we have flags checked for random pages all over the kernel. Noticeable exception to this is PageTransHuge() which triggers VM_BUG_ON() for tail page. Signed-off-by: NKirill A.

This effectively promotes IORESOURCE_BUSY to IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE semantics by default. If userspace really believes it is safe to access the memory region it can also perform the extra step of disabling an active driver. This protects device address ranges with read side effects and otherwise directs userspace to use the driver. Persistent memory presents a large "mistake surface" to /dev/mem as now accidental writes can corrupt a filesystem. In general if a device driver is busily using a memory region it already informs other parts of the kernel to not touch it via request_mem_region(). /dev/mem should honor the same safety restriction by default. Debugging a device driver from userspace becomes more difficult with this enabled. Any application using /dev/mem or mmap of sysfs pci resources will now need to perform the extra step of either: 1/ Disabling the driver, for example: echo <device id> > /dev/bus/<parent bus>/drivers/<driver name>/unbind 2/ Rebooting with "iomem=relaxed" on the command line 3/ Recompiling with CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM=n Traditional users of /dev/mem like dosemu are unaffected because the first 1MB of memory is not subject to the IO_STRICT_DEVMEM restriction. Legacy X configurations use /dev/mem to talk to graphics hardware, but that functionality has since moved to kernel graphics drivers.

Workqueue stalls can happen from a variety of usage bugs such as missing WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag or concurrency managed work item indefinitely staying RUNNING. These stalls can be extremely difficult to hunt down because the usual warning mechanisms can't detect workqueue stalls and the internal state is pretty opaque. To alleviate the situation, this patch implements workqueue lockup detector. It periodically monitors all worker_pools periodically and, if any pool failed to make forward progress longer than the threshold duration, triggers warning and dumps workqueue state as follows. BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 31s! Showing busy workqueues and worker pools: workqueue events: flags=0x0 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=17/256 pending: monkey_wrench_fn, e1000_watchdog, cache_reap, vmstat_shepherd, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, cgroup_release_agent workqueue events_power_efficient: flags=0x80 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256 pending: check_lifetime, neigh_periodic_work workqueue cgroup_pidlist_destroy: flags=0x0 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1 pending: cgroup_pidlist_destroy_work_fn ...

This module allows to insert errors in some of netdevice's notifier events. All network drivers use these notifiers to signal various events and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using this module. Here's an example: $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/netdev $ echo -22 > actions/NETDEV_CHANGEMTU/error $ ip link set eth0 mtu 1024 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument CC: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> CC: "David S.

This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by: NRasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Reviewed-by: NKees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When the kernel compiled with KASAN=y, GCC adds redzones for each variable on stack. This enlarges function's stack frame and causes: 'warning: the frame size of X bytes is larger than Y bytes' The worst case I've seen for now is following: ../net/wireless/nl80211.c: In function `nl80211_send_wiphy': ../net/wireless/nl80211.c:1731:1: warning: the frame size of 5448 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] That kind of warning becomes useless with KASAN=y. It doesn't necessarily indicate that there is some problem in the code, thus we should turn it off. (The KASAN=y stack size in increased from 16k to 32k for this reason) Signed-off-by: NAndrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Reported-by: NFengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Acked-by: NAbylay Ospan <aospan@netup.ru> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@samsung.com> Cc: Kozlov Sergey <serjk@netup.ru> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita, we really have very little debugging capabilities - except for relying on tglx's eye half the time. By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery, we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time. Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of this. There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

Grace-period scans of the rcu_node combining tree normally proceed quite quickly, so that it is very difficult to reproduce races against them. This commit therefore allows grace-period pre-initialization and cleanup to be artificially slowed down, increasing race-reproduction probability. A pair of pairs of new Kconfig parameters are provided, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT to enable the slowing down of propagating CPU-hotplug changes up the combining tree along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY to specify the delay in jiffies, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP to enable the slowing down of the end-of-grace-period cleanup scan along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY to specify the delay in jiffies. Boot-time parameters named rcutree.gp_preinit_delay and rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay allow these delays to be specified at boot time. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

In a misguided attempt to avoid an #ifdef, the use of the gp_init_delay module parameter was conditioned on the corresponding RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT Kconfig variable, using IS_ENABLED() at the point of use in the code. This meant that the compiler always saw the delay, which meant that RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY had to be unconditionally defined. This in turn caused "make oldconfig" to ask pointless questions about the value of RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY in cases where it was not even used. This commit avoids these pointless questions by defining gp_init_delay under #ifdef. In one branch, gp_init_delay is initialized to RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY and is also a module parameter (thus allowing boot-time modification), and in the other branch gp_init_delay is a const variable initialized by default to zero. This approach also simplifies the code at the delay point by eliminating the IS_DEFINED(). Because gp_init_delay is constant zero in the no-delay case intended for production use, the "gp_init_delay > 0" check causes the delay to become dead code, as desired in this case. In addition, this commit replaces magic constant "10" with the preprocessor variable PER_RCU_NODE_PERIOD, which controls the number of grace periods that are allowed to elapse at full speed before a delay is inserted.
