* lib: add CONFIG_TEST_SORT to enable self-test of sort()Kostenzer Felix2017-02-241-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Along with the addition made to Kconfig.debug, the prior existing but permanently disabled test function has been slightly refactored. Patch has been tested using QEMU 2.1.2 with a .config obtained through 'make defconfig' (x86_64) and manually enabling the option.

| * | | lib: Introduce priority array area managerJiri Pirko2017-02-031-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a infrastructure for management of linear priority areas. Priority order in an array matters, however order of items inside a priority group does not matter. As an initial implementation, L-sort algorithm is used. It is quite trivial. More advanced algorithm called P-sort will be introduced as a follow-up. The infrastructure is prepared for other algos. Alongside this, a testing module is introduced as well.

Except SipHash is super fast, and is meant to be used as a hashtable keyed lookup function, or as a general PRF for short input use cases, such as sequence numbers or RNG chaining. For the first usage: There are a variety of attacks known as "hashtable poisoning" in which an attacker forms some data such that the hash of that data will be the same, and then preceeds to fill up all entries of a hashbucket. This is a realistic and well-known denial-of-service vector. Currently hashtables use jhash, which is fast but not secure, and some kind of rotating key scheme (or none at all, which isn't good). SipHash is meant as a replacement for jhash in these cases. There are a modicum of places in the kernel that are vulnerable to hashtable poisoning attacks, either via userspace vectors or network vectors, and there's not a reliable mechanism inside the kernel at the moment to fix it. The first step toward fixing these issues is actually getting a secure primitive into the kernel for developers to use. Then we can, bit by bit, port things over to it as deemed appropriate. While SipHash is extremely fast for a cryptographically secure function, it is likely a bit slower than the insecure jhash, and so replacements will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis based on whether or not the difference in speed is negligible and whether or not the current jhash usage poses a real security risk. For the second usage: A few places in the kernel are using MD5 or SHA1 for creating secure sequence numbers, syn cookies, port numbers, or fast random numbers. SipHash is a faster and more fitting, and more secure replacement for MD5 in those situations. Replacing MD5 and SHA1 with SipHash for these uses is obvious and straight-forward, and so is submitted along with this patch series. There shouldn't be much of a debate over its efficacy. Dozens of languages are already using this internally for their hash tables and PRFs. Some of the BSDs already use this in their kernels. SipHash is a widely known high-speed solution to a widely known set of problems, and it's time we catch-up. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

Unfortunately, the RCU callback tracepoints are hidden behind CONFIG_RCU_TRACE which defaults to off in the upstream kernel and is likely to also be disabled in enterprise distribution configs. Enable it by default for CONFIG_TREE_RCU. However, we must keep it disabled for tiny RCU, because it would otherwise pull in a large amount of code that would make tiny RCU less than tiny. I ran some file system metadata intensive workloads (git checkout, FS-Mark) on a variety of machines with this patch and saw no detectable change in performance.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The build of frv allmodconfig was failing with the errors like: /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1839: Error: symbol `.LSLT0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1842: Error: symbol `.LASLTP0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1969: Error: symbol `.LELTP0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1970: Error: symbol `.LELT0' is already defined Commit 866ced950bcd ("kbuild: Support split debug info v4") introduced splitting the debug info and keeping that in a separate file. Somehow, the frv-linux gcc did not like that and I am guessing that instead of splitting it started copying. The first report about this is at: https://lists.01.org/pipermail/kbuild-all/2015-July/010527.html. I will try and see if this can work with frv and if still fails I will open a bug report with gcc. But meanwhile this is the easiest option to solve build failure of frv.

Remove them and all related code. Remove also the now pointless cpu notifier error injection mechanism. The states can be executed step by step and error rollback is the same as cpu down, so any state transition can be tested w/o requiring the notifier error injection. Some CPU hotplug states are kept as they are (ab)used for hotplug state tracking.

In contrast, the newly added CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION is meant for security hardening and may be used on systems that intentionally do not enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. In this configuration, we get a warning from Kconfig about the mismatched dependencies: warning: (BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION) selects DEBUG_LIST which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL) This annotates the DEBUG_LIST option to be selectable by BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION when DEBUG_KERNEL is disabled.

When corruption is detected, some systems may want to BUG() immediately instead of letting the system run with known corruption. Usually these kinds of manipulation primitives can be used by security flaws to gain arbitrary memory write control. This provides a new config CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION and a corresponding macro CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION for handling these situations. Notably, even if not BUGing, the kernel should not continue processing the corrupted structure. This is inspired by similar hardening by Syed Rameez Mustafa in MSM kernels, and in PaX and Grsecurity, which is likely in response to earlier removal of the BUG calls in commit 924d9addb9b1 ("list debugging: use WARN() instead of BUG()").

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: 2fb0815c9ee6 ("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.

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.com Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This plugin is a helper plugin for the kcov feature. It supports all gcc versions with plugin support (from gcc-4.5 on).

* | | mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktraceJoonsoo Kim2016-07-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
