2016-03-22kernel: add kcov code coverageDmitry Vyukov1-1/+10
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.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature (ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation. It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf. The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces. These bugs are hard to detect at the source code level. Such bugs result in incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior. The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool' user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/. The tool's (very simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already upstream). Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style. Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes the instruction stream and interprets it. (Right now objtool supports the x86-64 architecture.) From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt: "The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named objtool which runs at compile time. It has a "check" subcommand which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable. Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files. For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction. It also follows code paths involving special sections, like .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements, for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables." When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs warnings in compiler warning format: warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer ... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them. All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free. Most of them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code. There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well: - To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so that they can be used for optimized live patching. - To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of CFI stack frames at build time. CFI debuginfo is notoriously unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side. The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well, so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching or CFI debuginfo angle" * 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (52 commits) objtool: Only print one warning per function objtool: Add several performance improvements tools: Copy hashtable.h into tools directory objtool: Fix false positive warnings for functions with multiple switch statements objtool: Rename some variables and functions objtool: Remove superflous INIT_LIST_HEAD objtool: Add helper macros for traversing instructions objtool: Fix false positive warnings related to sibling calls objtool: Compile with debugging symbols objtool: Detect infinite recursion objtool: Prevent infinite recursion in noreturn detection objtool: Detect and warn if libelf is missing and don't break the build tools: Support relative directory path for 'O=' objtool: Support CROSS_COMPILE x86/asm/decoder: Use explicitly signed chars objtool: Enable stack metadata validation on 64-bit x86 objtool: Add CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option objtool: Add tool to perform compile-time stack metadata validation x86/kprobes: Mark kretprobe_trampoline() stack frame as non-standard sched: Always inline context_switch() ...

2016-03-15kbuild: Add option to turn incompatible pointer check into errorDaniel Wagner1-0/+3
With the introduction of the simple wait API we have two very similar APIs in the kernel. For example wake_up() and swake_up() is only one character away. Although the compiler will warn happily the wrong usage it keeps on going an even links the kernel. Thomas and Peter would rather like to see early missuses reported as error early on. In a first attempt we tried to wrap all swait and wait calls into a macro which has an compile time type assertion. The result was pretty ugly and wasn't able to catch all wrong usages. woken_wake_function(), autoremove_wake_function() and wake_bit_function() are assigned as function pointers. Wrapping them with a macro around is not possible. Prefixing them with '_' was also not a real option because there some users in the kernel which do use them as well. All in all this attempt looked to intrusive and too ugly. An alternative is to turn the pointer type check into an error which catches wrong type uses. Obviously not only the swait/wait ones. That isn't a bad thing either.

2016-01-20UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checkerAndrey Ryabinin1-1/+2
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. GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined option and its suboptions). However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2]. Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

2015-10-08kselftest: add kselftest-clean ruleWang Long1-0/+4
We use $make TARGETS="size timers" kselftest to build and run selftests. but there is no rule for us to clean the kselftest generated files. This patch add the rules, for example: $ make TARGETS="size timers" kselftest-clean can clean all kselftest generated files.

2015-09-28DocBook: Use a fixed encoding for outputBen Hutchings1-1/+1
Currently the encoding of documents generated by DocBook depends on the current locale. Make the output reproducible independently of the locale, by setting the encoding to UTF-8 (LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8) by preference, or ASCII (LC_CTYPE=C) as a fallback. LC_CTYPE can normally be overridden by LC_ALL, but the top-level Makefile unsets that.
