2020-12-04gcc-plugins: remove code for GCC versions older than 4.9Masahiro Yamada1-3/+1
Documentation/process/changes.rst says the minimal GCC version is 4.9. Hence, BUILDING_GCC_VERSION is greater than or equal to 4009.

2020-06-24gcc-plugins/stackleak: Add 'verbose' plugin parameterAlexander Popov1-5/+42
Add 'verbose' plugin parameter for stackleak gcc plugin. It can be used for printing additional info about the kernel code instrumentation. For using it add the following to scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins: gcc-plugin-cflags-$(CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK) \ += -fplugin-arg-stackleak_plugin-verbose Signed-off-by: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@linux.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200624123330.83226-6-alex.popov@linux.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
2020-06-24gcc-plugins/stackleak: Use asm instrumentation to avoid useless register savingAlexander Popov1-28/+177
The kernel code instrumentation in stackleak gcc plugin works in two stages. At first, stack tracking is added to GIMPLE representation of every function (except some special cases). And later, when stack frame size info is available, stack tracking is removed from the RTL representation of the functions with small stack frame. There is an unwanted side-effect for these functions: some of them do useless work with caller-saved registers. As an example of such case, proc_sys_write without() instrumentation: 55 push %rbp 41 b8 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%r8d 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp e8 11 ff ff ff callq ffffffff81284610 <proc_sys_call_handler> 5d pop %rbp c3 retq 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 nopw %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 00 00 00 proc_sys_write() with instrumentation: 55 push %rbp 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp 41 56 push %r14 41 55 push %r13 41 54 push %r12 53 push %rbx 49 89 f4 mov %rsi,%r12 48 89 fb mov %rdi,%rbx 49 89 d5 mov %rdx,%r13 49 89 ce mov %rcx,%r14 4c 89 f1 mov %r14,%rcx 4c 89 ea mov %r13,%rdx 4c 89 e6 mov %r12,%rsi 48 89 df mov %rbx,%rdi 41 b8 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%r8d e8 f2 fe ff ff callq ffffffff81298e80 <proc_sys_call_handler> 5b pop %rbx 41 5c pop %r12 41 5d pop %r13 41 5e pop %r14 5d pop %rbp c3 retq 66 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 00 00 Let's improve the instrumentation to avoid this: 1. Make stackleak_track_stack() save all register that it works with. Use no_caller_saved_registers attribute for that function. This attribute is available for x86_64 and i386 starting from gcc-7. 2. Insert calling stackleak_track_stack() in asm: asm volatile("call stackleak_track_stack" :: "r" (current_stack_pointer)) Here we use ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT trick from arch/x86/include/asm/asm.h. The input constraint is taken into account during gcc shrink-wrapping optimization. It is needed to be sure that stackleak_track_stack() call is inserted after the prologue of the containing function, when the stack frame is prepared.

2020-04-13gcc-plugins/stackleak: Avoid assignment for unused macro argumentKees Cook1-3/+2
With GCC version >= 8, the cgraph_create_edge() macro argument using "frequency" goes unused. Instead of assigning a temporary variable for the argument, pass the compute_call_stmt_bb_frequency() call directly as the macro argument so that it will just not be called when it is not wanted by the macros. Silences the warning: scripts/gcc-plugins/stackleak_plugin.c:54:6: warning: variable ‘frequency’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable] Now builds cleanly with gcc-7 and gcc-9. Both boot and pass STACKLEAK_ERASING LKDTM test. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
2018-12-06stackleak: Register the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass before the '*free_cfg' passAlexander Popov1-3/+5
Currently the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass deleting a CALL insn is executed after the 'reload' pass. That allows gcc to do some weird optimization in function prologues and epilogues, which are generated later [1]. Let's avoid that by registering the 'stackleak_cleanup' pass before the '*free_cfg' pass. It's the moment when the stack frame size is already final, function prologues and epilogues are generated, and the machine-dependent code transformations are not done.

2018-09-04gcc-plugins: Add STACKLEAK plugin for tracking the kernel stackAlexander Popov1-0/+427
The STACKLEAK feature erases the kernel stack before returning from syscalls. That reduces the information which kernel stack leak bugs can reveal and blocks some uninitialized stack variable attacks. This commit introduces the STACKLEAK gcc plugin. It is needed for tracking the lowest border of the kernel stack, which is important for the code erasing the used part of the kernel stack at the end of syscalls (comes in a separate commit). The STACKLEAK feature is ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at: https://grsecurity.net/ https://pax.grsecurity.net/ This code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on our understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are ours and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
