Looking at functions with large stack frames across all architectures led me discovering that BUG() suffers from the same problem as fortify_panic(), which I've added a workaround for already. In short, variables that go out of scope by calling a noreturn function or __builtin_unreachable() keep using stack space in functions afterwards. A workaround that was identified is to insert an empty assembler statement just before calling the function that doesn't return. I'm adding a macro "barrier_before_unreachable()" to document this, and insert calls to that in all instances of BUG() that currently suffer from this problem. The files that saw the largest change from this had these frame sizes before, and much less with my patch: fs/ext4/inode.c:82:1: warning: the frame size of 1672 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/namei.c:434:1: warning: the frame size of 904 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/super.c:2279:1: warning: the frame size of 1160 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/ext4/xattr.c:146:1: warning: the frame size of 1168 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] fs/f2fs/inode.c:152:1: warning: the frame size of 1424 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c:1195:1: warning: the frame size of 1068 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c:395:1: warning: the frame size of 1084 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c:298:1: warning: the frame size of 928 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.c:418:1: warning: the frame size of 908 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.c:718:1: warning: the frame size of 960 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c:1500:1: warning: the frame size of 1088 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] In case of ARC and CRIS, it turns out that the BUG() implementation actually does return (or at least the compiler thinks it does), resulting in lots of warnings about uninitialized variable use and leaving noreturn functions, such as: block/cfq-iosched.c: In function 'cfq_async_queue_prio': block/cfq-iosched.c:3804:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] include/linux/dmaengine.h: In function 'dma_maxpq': include/linux/dmaengine.h:1123:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] This makes them call __builtin_trap() instead, which should normally dump the stack and kill the current process, like some of the other architectures already do.

Sometimes we know that it's safe to do potentially out-of-bounds access because we know it won't cross a page boundary. Still, KASAN will report this as a bug.

This fixes the following warning with GCC 4.6: mm/migrate.o: warning: objtool: migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()+0x71: unreachable instruction The problem is that the compiler merged identical annotate_unreachable() inline asm blocks, resulting in a missing 'unreachable' annotation. This problem happened before, and was partially fixed with: 3d1e2360 ("objtool: Prevent GCC from merging annotate_unreachable()") That commit tried to ensure that each instance of the annotate_unreachable() inline asm statement has a unique label. It used the __LINE__ macro to generate the label number. However, even the line number isn't necessarily unique when used in an inline function with multiple callers (in this case, __alloc_pages_node()'s use of VM_BUG_ON).

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

lockless_dereference() is a nice idea, but it gained little traction in kernel code since its introduction three years ago. This is partly because it's a pain to type, but also because using READ_ONCE() instead has worked correctly on all architectures apart from Alpha, which is a fully supported but somewhat niche architecture these days. Now that READ_ONCE() has been upgraded to contain an implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and the few callers of lockless_dereference() have been converted, we can remove lockless_dereference() altogether.

linux/compiler.h is included indirectly by linux/types.h via uapi/linux/types.h -> uapi/linux/posix_types.h -> linux/stddef.h -> uapi/linux/stddef.h and is needed to provide a proper definition of offsetof. Unfortunately, compiler.h requires a definition of smp_read_barrier_depends() for defining lockless_dereference() and soon for defining READ_ONCE(), which means that all users of READ_ONCE() will need to include asm/barrier.h to avoid splats such as: In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0, from include/linux/stddef.h:4, from arch/h8300/kernel/asm-offsets.c:11: include/linux/list.h: In function 'list_empty': >> include/linux/compiler.h:343:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_read_barrier_depends' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] smp_read_barrier_depends(); /* Enforce dependency ordering from x */ \ ^ A better alternative is to include asm/barrier.h in linux/compiler.h, but this requires a type definition for "bool" on some architectures (e.g. x86), which is defined later by linux/types.h. Type "bool" is also used directly in linux/compiler.h, so the whole thing is pretty fragile. This patch splits compiler.h in two: compiler_types.h contains type annotations, definitions and the compiler-specific parts, whereas compiler.h #includes compiler-types.h and additionally defines macros such as {READ,WRITE.ACCESS}_ONCE(). uapi/linux/stddef.h and linux/linkage.h are then moved over to include linux/compiler_types.h, which fixes the build for h8 and blackfin.

Commit c7acec71 ("kernel.h: handle pointers to arrays better in container_of()") made use of __compiletime_assert() from container_of() thus increasing the usage of this macro, allowing developers to notice type conflicts in usage of container_of() at compile time. However, the implementation of __compiletime_assert relies on compiler optimizations to report an error. This means that if a developer uses "-O0" with any code that performs container_of(), the compiler will always report an error regardless of whether there is an actual problem in the code. This patch disables compile_time_assert when optimizations are disabled to allow such code to compile with CFLAGS="-O0".

Objtool doesn't consider UD2 to be fatal unless it's annotated with unreachable(). So it considers the GCC-generated UD2 to be non-fatal, and it tries to follow the control flow past the UD2 and gets confused. Previously, objtool *did* assume UD2 was always a dead end. That changed with the following commit: d1091c7f ("objtool: Improve detection of BUG() and other dead ends") The motivation behind that change was that Peter was planning on using UD2 for __WARN(), which is *not* a dead end. However, it turns out that some emulators rely on UD2 being fatal, so he ended up using 'ud0' instead: 9a93848f ("x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0") For GCC 4.5+, it should be safe to go back to the previous assumption that UD2 is fatal, even when it's not annotated with unreachable(). But for pre-4.5 versions of GCC, the unreachable() macro isn't supported, so such cases of UD2 need to be explicitly annotated as reachable.

This marks most of the layout of task_struct as randomizable, but leaves thread_info and scheduler state untouched at the start, and thread_struct untouched at the end. Other parts of the kernel use unnamed structures, but the 0-day builder using gcc-4.4 blows up on static initializers. Officially, it's documented as only working on gcc 4.6 and later, which further confuses me: https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/C11Status The structure layout randomization already requires gcc 4.7, but instead of depending on the plugin being enabled, just check the gcc versions for wider build testing. At Linus's suggestion, the marking is hidden in a macro to reduce how ugly it looks. Additionally, indenting is left unchanged since it would make things harder to read. Randomization of task_struct is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

This randstruct plugin is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. The randstruct GCC plugin randomizes the layout of selected structures at compile time, as a probabilistic defense against attacks that need to know the layout of structures within the kernel. This is most useful for "in-house" kernel builds where neither the randomization seed nor other build artifacts are made available to an attacker. While less useful for distribution kernels (where the randomization seed must be exposed for third party kernel module builds), it still has some value there since now all kernel builds would need to be tracked by an attacker. In more performance sensitive scenarios, GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE can be selected to make a best effort to restrict randomization to cacheline-sized groups of elements, and will not randomize bitfields. This comes at the cost of reduced randomization. Two annotations are defined,__randomize_layout and __no_randomize_layout, which respectively tell the plugin to either randomize or not to randomize instances of the struct in question. Follow-on patches enable the auto-detection logic for selecting structures for randomization that contain only function pointers. It is disabled here to assist with bisection. Since any randomized structs must be initialized using designated initializers, __randomize_layout includes the __designated_init annotation even when the plugin is disabled so that all builds will require the needed initialization. (With the plugin enabled, annotations for automatically chosen structures are marked as well.) The main differences between this implemenation and grsecurity are: - disable automatic struct selection (to be enabled in follow-up patch) - add designated_init attribute at runtime and for manual marking - clarify debugging output to differentiate bad cast warnings - add whitelisting infrastructure - support gcc 7's DECL_ALIGN and DECL_MODE changes (Laura Abbott) - raise minimum required GCC version to 4.7 Earlier versions of this patch series were ported by Michael Leibowitz.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of clutter as possible. Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled CONFIG_KPROBES. Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES, this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely. Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them. Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without bringing the full kitchen sink of header files. Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added. We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless kprobes have been enabled. In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from include/linux/kprobes.h. During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

When running the likely/unlikely profiler, one of the results did not look accurate. It noted that the unlikely() in link_path_walk() was 100% incorrect. When I added a trace_printk() to see what was happening there, it became 80% correct! Looking deeper into what whas happening, I found that gcc split that if statement into two paths. One where the if statement became a constant, the other path a variable. The other path had the if statement always hit (making the unlikely there, always false), but since the #define unlikely() has: #define unlikely() (__builtin_constant_p(x) ? !!(x) : __branch_check__(x, 0)) Where constants are ignored by the branch profiler, the "constant" path made by the compiler was ignored, even though it was hit 80% of the time. By just passing the constant value to the __branch_check__() function and tracing it out of line (as always correct, as likely/unlikely isn't a factor for constants), then we get back the accurate readings of branches that were optimized by gcc causing part of the execution to become constant.

The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields. These specific functions have been selected because they are init functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of latent entropy.

My previous commit: 112dc0c8 ("locking/barriers: Suppress sparse warnings in lockless_dereference()") caused sparse to complain that (in radix-tree.h) we use sizeof(void) since that rcu_dereference()s a void *. Really, all we need is to have the expression *p in here somewhere to make sure p is a pointer type, and sizeof(*p) was the thing that came to my mind first to make sure that's done without really doing anything at runtime. Another thing I had considered was using typeof(*p), but obviously we can't just declare a typeof(*p) variable either, since that may end up being void. Declaring a variable as typeof(*p)* gets around that, and still checks that typeof(*p) is valid, so do that. This type construction can't be done for _________p1 because that will actually be used and causes sparse address space warnings, so keep a separate unused variable for it.

After Peter's commit: 331b6d8c ("locking/barriers: Validate lockless_dereference() is used on a pointer type") ... we get a lot of sparse warnings (one for every rcu_dereference, and more) since the expression here is assigning to the wrong address space. Instead of validating that 'p' is a pointer this way, instead make it fail compilation when it's not by using sizeof(*(p)). This will not cause any sparse warnings (tested, likely since the address space is irrelevant for sizeof), and will fail compilation when 'p' isn't a pointer type. Tested-by: NPaul E.

gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute __malloc__. Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function declaration. This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002 [1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated the exact same code with and without this attribute. This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL) can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the call. Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting text: The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has undefined content*. [...] Standard functions with this property include malloc and *calloc*. (emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]: This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects occur in any storage addressed by P. What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined contents (__GFP_ZERO). But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the memory with existing pointers. So unless someone is doing something pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

In C programming language, we don't have a easy way to privatize a member of a structure. However in kernel, sometimes there is a need to privatize a member in case of potential bugs or misuses. Fortunately, the noderef attribute of sparse is a way to privatize a member, as by defining a member as noderef, the address-of operator on the member will produce a noderef pointer to that member, and if anyone wants to dereference that kind of pointers to read or modify the member, sparse will yell. Based on this, __private modifier and related operation ACCESS_PRIVATE() are introduced, which could help detect undesigned public uses of private members of structs. Here is an example of sparse's output if it detect an undersigned public use: | kernel/rcu/tree.c:4453:25: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different modifiers) | kernel/rcu/tree.c:4453:25: expected struct raw_spinlock [usertype] *lock | kernel/rcu/tree.c:4453:25: got struct raw_spinlock [noderef] *<noident> Also, this patch improves compiler.h a little bit by adding comments for "#else" and "#endif".

In my randconfig tests, I came across a bug that involves several components: * gcc-4.9 through at least 5.3 * CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL enabling -fprofile-arcs for all files * CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES overriding every if() * The optimized implementation of do_div() that tries to replace a library call with an division by multiplication * code in drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.c doing u32 adc_clock = 450560; /* 45.056 MHz */ if (state->config.adc_clock) adc_clock = state->config.adc_clock; do_div(value, adc_clock); In this case, gcc fails to determine whether the divisor in do_div() is __builtin_constant_p(). In particular, it concludes that __builtin_constant_p(adc_clock) is false, while __builtin_constant_p(!!adc_clock) is true. That in turn throws off the logic in do_div() that also uses __builtin_constant_p(), and instead of picking either the constant- optimized division, and the code in ilog2() that uses __builtin_constant_p() to figure out whether it knows the answer at compile time. The result is a link error from failing to find multiple symbols that should never have been called based on the __builtin_constant_p(): dvb-frontends/zl10353.c:138: undefined reference to `____ilog2_NaN' dvb-frontends/zl10353.c:138: undefined reference to `__aeabi_uldivmod' ERROR: "____ilog2_NaN" [drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.ko] undefined! ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.ko] undefined! This patch avoids the problem by changing __trace_if() to check whether the condition is known at compile-time to be nonzero, rather than checking whether it is actually a constant. I see this one link error in roughly one out of 1600 randconfig builds on ARM, and the patch fixes all known instances.
