This change adds support for Clang’s forward-edge Control Flow Integrity (CFI) checking. With CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler injects a runtime check before each indirect function call to ensure the target is a valid function with the correct static type. This restricts possible call targets and makes it more difficult for an attacker to exploit bugs that allow the modification of stored function pointers. For more details, see: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ControlFlowIntegrity.html Clang requires CONFIG_LTO_CLANG to be enabled with CFI to gain visibility to possible call targets. Kernel modules are supported with Clang’s cross-DSO CFI mode, which allows checking between independently compiled components. With CFI enabled, the compiler injects a __cfi_check() function into the kernel and each module for validating local call targets. For cross-module calls that cannot be validated locally, the compiler calls the global __cfi_slowpath_diag() function, which determines the target module and calls the correct __cfi_check() function. This patch includes a slowpath implementation that uses __module_address() to resolve call targets, and with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG_SHADOW enabled, a shadow map that speeds up module look-ups by ~3x. Clang implements indirect call checking using jump tables and offers two methods of generating them. With canonical jump tables, the compiler renames each address-taken function to <function>.cfi and points the original symbol to a jump table entry, which passes __cfi_check() validation. This isn’t compatible with stand-alone assembly code, which the compiler doesn’t instrument, and would result in indirect calls to assembly code to fail. Therefore, we default to using non-canonical jump tables instead, where the compiler generates a local jump table entry <function>.cfi_jt for each address-taken function, and replaces all references to the function with the address of the jump table entry. Note that because non-canonical jump table addresses are local to each component, they break cross-module function address equality. Specifically, the address of a global function will be different in each module, as it's replaced with the address of a local jump table entry. If this address is passed to a different module, it won’t match the address of the same function taken there. This may break code that relies on comparing addresses passed from other components. CFI checking can be disabled in a function with the __nocfi attribute. Additionally, CFI can be disabled for an entire compilation unit by filtering out CC_FLAGS_CFI. By default, CFI failures result in a kernel panic to stop a potential exploit. CONFIG_CFI_PERMISSIVE enables a permissive mode, where the kernel prints out a rate-limited warning instead, and allows execution to continue. This option is helpful for locating type mismatches, but should only be enabled during development. Signed-off-by:

I read the commit log of the following two: - bc083a64 ("init/Kconfig: make COMPILE_TEST depend on !UML") - 334ef6ed ("init/Kconfig: make COMPILE_TEST depend on !S390") Both are talking about HAS_IOMEM dependency missing in many drivers. So, 'depends on HAS_IOMEM' seems the direct, sensible solution to me. This does not change the behavior of UML. UML still cannot enable COMPILE_TEST because it does not provide HAS_IOMEM. The current dependency for S390 is too strong. Under the condition of CONFIG_PCI=y, S390 provides HAS_IOMEM, hence can enable COMPILE_TEST. I also removed the meaningless 'default n'.

Linus reported a build error due to the GCC plugin incompatibility when the compiler is upgraded. [1] GCC plugins are tied to a particular GCC version. So, they must be rebuilt when the compiler is upgraded. This seems to be a long-standing flaw since the initial support of GCC plugins. Extend commit 8b59cd81 ("kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated"), so that GCC plugins are covered by the compiler upgrade detection.

Commit fbe078d3 ("kbuild: lto: add a default list of used symbols") does not work as expected if the .config file has already specified CONFIG_UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST="my/own/white/list" before enabling CONFIG_LTO_CLANG. So, the user-supplied whitelist and LTO-specific white list must be independent of each other. I refactored the shell script so CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_CLANG_LTO handle whitelists in the same way. Fixes: fbe078d3 ("kbuild: lto: add a default list of used symbols") Signed-off-by:

This code hunk creates a Version_<LINUX_VERSION_CODE> symbol if CONFIG_KALLSYMS is disabled. For example, building the kernel v5.10 for allnoconfig creates the following symbol: $ nm vmlinux | grep Version_ c116b028 B Version_330240 There is no in-tree user of this symbol. Commit 197dcffc ("init/version.c: define version_string only if CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not defined") mentions that Version_* is only used with ksymoops. However, a commit in the pre-git era [1] had added the statement, "ksymoops is useless on 2.6. Please use the Oops in its original format". That statement existed until commit 4eb92411 ("Documentation: admin-guide: update bug-hunting.rst") finally removed the stale ksymoops information. This symbol is no longer needed.

Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume any memory when stack depot is disabled. The use case is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on. Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial. With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system, page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line, we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.

Patch series "KFENCE: A low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector", v7. This adds the Kernel Electric-Fence (KFENCE) infrastructure. KFENCE is a low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector of heap use-after-free, invalid-free, and out-of-bounds access errors. This series enables KFENCE for the x86 and arm64 architectures, and adds KFENCE hooks to the SLAB and SLUB allocators. KFENCE is designed to be enabled in production kernels, and has near zero performance overhead. Compared to KASAN, KFENCE trades performance for precision. The main motivation behind KFENCE's design, is that with enough total uptime KFENCE will detect bugs in code paths not typically exercised by non-production test workloads. One way to quickly achieve a large enough total uptime is when the tool is deployed across a large fleet of machines. KFENCE objects each reside on a dedicated page, at either the left or right page boundaries. The pages to the left and right of the object page are "guard pages", whose attributes are changed to a protected state, and cause page faults on any attempted access to them. Such page faults are then intercepted by KFENCE, which handles the fault gracefully by reporting a memory access error. Guarded allocations are set up based on a sample interval (can be set via kfence.sample_interval). After expiration of the sample interval, the next allocation through the main allocator (SLAB or SLUB) returns a guarded allocation from the KFENCE object pool. At this point, the timer is reset, and the next allocation is set up after the expiration of the interval. To enable/disable a KFENCE allocation through the main allocator's fast-path without overhead, KFENCE relies on static branches via the static keys infrastructure. The static branch is toggled to redirect the allocation to KFENCE. The KFENCE memory pool is of fixed size, and if the pool is exhausted no further KFENCE allocations occur. The default config is conservative with only 255 objects, resulting in a pool size of 2 MiB (with 4 KiB pages). We have verified by running synthetic benchmarks (sysbench I/O, hackbench) and production server-workload benchmarks that a kernel with KFENCE (using sample intervals 100-500ms) is performance-neutral compared to a non-KFENCE baseline kernel. KFENCE is inspired by GWP-ASan [1], a userspace tool with similar properties. The name "KFENCE" is a homage to the Electric Fence Malloc Debugger [2]. For more details, see Documentation/dev-tools/kfence.rst added in the series -- also viewable here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/google/kasan/kfence/Documentation/dev-tools/kfence.rst [1] http://llvm.org/docs/GwpAsan.html [2] https://linux.die.net/man/3/efence This patch (of 9): This adds the Kernel Electric-Fence (KFENCE) infrastructure.

Such page faults are then intercepted by KFENCE, which handles the fault gracefully by reporting a memory access error. To detect out-of-bounds writes to memory within the object's page itself, KFENCE also uses pattern-based redzones. The following figure illustrates the page layout: ---+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+--- | xxxxxxxxx | O : | xxxxxxxxx | : O | xxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxx | B : | xxxxxxxxx | : B | xxxxxxxxx | | x GUARD x | J : RED- | x GUARD x | RED- : J | x GUARD x | | xxxxxxxxx | E : ZONE | xxxxxxxxx | ZONE : E | xxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxx | C : | xxxxxxxxx | : C | xxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxx | T : | xxxxxxxxx | : T | xxxxxxxxx | ---+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+--- Guarded allocations are set up based on a sample interval (can be set via kfence.sample_interval).

Several people piped up and convinced me it's actually useful, so instead of disabling it entirely, it now depends on EXPERT and gets disabled by COMPILE_TEST builds so that 'allmodconfig' style things don't enable it. I still hope somebody will take a look at the build time issue, because as Arnd also noted: "However, the combination of thinlto and trim indeed has a steep cost in compile time, taking almost twice as long as a normal defconfig (gc-sections makes it slightly faster)" Cc: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org> Cc: Jessica Yu <jeyu@kernel.org> Cc: Cristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>, Cc: Miroslav Benes <mbenes@suse.cz> Cc: Emil Velikov <emil.l.velikov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

The removal of EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() in commit 36794822 looks like (and was sold as) a no-op, but it actually had a rather serious and subtle side effect: the UNUSED_SYMBOLS option not only enabled the removed (unused) functionality, it also _disabled_ the TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS functionality. And it turns out that TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is a huge time waste, and takes up a third of the kernel build time for me. For no actual upside, since no distro is likely to ever be able to enable it (because they all support external kernel modules). Rather than re-enable EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL, this just disables the TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option by marking it broken. I'm tempted to just remove the support entirely, but maybe somebody has a use-case and can fix the behavior of it. I could have just disabled it for COMPILE_TEST, but it really smells like the TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option is badly done and not really useful, so this takes the more direct approach - let's see if anybody ever actually notices or complains.

Userspace has discovered the functionality offered by SYS_kcmp and has started to depend upon it. In particular, Mesa uses SYS_kcmp for os_same_file_description() in order to identify when two fd (e.g. device or dmabuf) point to the same struct file. Since they depend on it for core functionality, lift SYS_kcmp out of the non-default CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE into the selectable syscall category. Rasmus Villemoes also pointed out that systemd uses SYS_kcmp to deduplicate the per-service file descriptor store. Note that some distributions such as Ubuntu are already enabling CHECKPOINT_RESTORE in their configs and so, by extension, SYS_kcmp.

Paul Gortmaker reported a regression in the GCC version check. [1] If you use GCC 4.8, the build breaks before showing the error message "error Sorry, your version of GCC is too old - please use 4.9 or newer." I do not want to apply his fix-up since it implies we would not be able to remove any cc-option test. Anyway, I admit checking the GCC version in <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is too late. Almost at the same time, Linus also suggested to move the compiler version error to Kconfig time. [2] I unified the two similar scripts, gcc-version.sh and clang-version.sh into cc-version.sh.

On ARCH=um, loading a module doesn't result in its constructors getting called, which breaks module gcov since the debugfs files are never registered. On the other hand, in-kernel constructors have already been called by the dynamic linker, so we can't call them again. Get out of this conundrum by allowing CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS to be selected, but avoiding the in-kernel constructor calls. Also remove the "if !UML" from GCOV selecting CONSTRUCTORS now, since we really do want CONSTRUCTORS, just not kernel binary ones.

On some archs, the idle task can call into cpu_suspend(). The cpu_suspend() will disable or pause function graph tracing, as there's some paths in bringing down the CPU that can have issues with its return address being modified. The task_struct structure has a "tracing_graph_pause" atomic counter, that when set to something other than zero, the function graph tracer will not modify the return address. The problem is that the tracing_graph_pause counter is initialized when the function graph tracer is enabled. This can corrupt the counter for the idle task if it is suspended in these architectures. CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- do_idle() cpu_suspend() pause_graph_tracing() task_struct->tracing_graph_pause++ (0 -> 1) start_graph_tracing() for_each_online_cpu(cpu) { ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(cpu) task-struct->tracing_graph_pause = 0 (1 -> 0) unpause_graph_tracing() task_struct->tracing_graph_pause-- (0 -> -1) The above should have gone from 1 to zero, and enabled function graph tracing again. But instead, it is set to -1, which keeps it disabled. There's no reason that the field tracing_graph_pause on the task_struct can not be initialized at boot up.

This reverts commit 757055ae. The commit caused that ttynull was used as the default console on several systems[1][2][3]. As a result, the console was blank even when a better alternative existed. It happened when there was no console configured on the command line and ttynull_init() was the first initcall calling register_console(). Or it happened when /dev/ did not exist when console_on_rootfs() was called. It was not able to open /dev/console even though a console driver was registered. It tried to add ttynull console but it obviously did not help. But ttynull became the preferred console and was used by /dev/console when it was available later. The commit tried to fix a historical problem that have been there for ages. The primary motivation was the commit 3cffa06a ("printk/console: Allow to disable console output by using console="" or console=null"). It provided a clean solution for a workaround that was widely used and worked only by chance. This revert causes that the console="" or console=null command line options will again work only by chance. These options will cause that a particular console will be preferred and the default (tty) ones will not get enabled. There will be no console registered at all. As a result there won't be stdin, stdout, and stderr for the init process. But it worked exactly this way even before. The proper solution has to fulfill many conditions: + Register ttynull only when explicitly required or as the ultimate fallback. + ttynull should get associated with /dev/console but it must not become preferred console when used as a fallback. Especially, it must still be possible to replace it by a better console later. Such a change requires clean up of the register_console() code. Otherwise, it would be even harder to follow. Especially, the use of has_preferred_console and CON_CONSDEV flag is tricky. The clean up is risky. The ordering of consoles is not well defined. And any changes tend to break existing user settings. Do the revert at the least risky solution for now.

Patch series "cleanup page poisoning", v3. I have identified a number of issues and opportunities for cleanup with CONFIG_PAGE_POISON and friends: - interaction with init_on_alloc and init_on_free parameters depends on the order of parameters (Patch 1) - the boot time enabling uses static key, but inefficienty (Patch 2) - sanity checking is incompatible with hibernation (Patch 3) - CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY can be removed now that we have init_on_free (Patch 4) - CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO can be most likely removed now that we have init_on_free (Patch 5) This patch (of 5): Enabling page_poison=1 together with init_on_alloc=1 or init_on_free=1 produces a warning in dmesg that page_poison takes precedence. However, as these warnings are printed in early_param handlers for init_on_alloc/free, they are not printed if page_poison is enabled later on the command line (handlers are called in the order of their parameters), or when init_on_alloc/free is always enabled by the respective config option - before the page_poison early param handler is called, it is not considered to be enabled. This is inconsistent. We can remove the dependency on order by making the init_on_* parameters only set a boolean variable, and postponing the evaluation after all early params have been processed. Introduce a new init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() function for that, and move the related debug_pagealloc processing there as well. As a result init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() knows always accurately if init_on_* and/or page_poison options were enabled. Thus we can also optimize want_init_on_alloc() and want_init_on_free(). We don't need to check page_poisoning_enabled() there, we can instead not enable the init_on_* static keys at all, if page poisoning is enabled. This results in a simpler and more effective code.

In the booting phase if CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is set, we have following callchain: start_kernel ... mm_init mem_init memblock_free_all reset_all_zones_managed_pages free_low_memory_core_early ... buffer_init nr_free_buffer_pages zone->managed_pages ... rest_init kernel_init kernel_init_freeable page_alloc_init_late kthread_run(deferred_init_memmap, NODE_DATA(nid), "pgdatinit%d", nid); wait_for_completion(&pgdat_init_all_done_comp); ... files_maxfiles_init It's clear that buffer_init depends on zone->managed_pages, but it's reset in reset_all_zones_managed_pages after that pages are readded into zone->managed_pages, but when buffer_init runs this process is half done and most of them will finally be added till deferred_init_memmap done. In large memory couting of nr_free_buffer_pages drifts too much, also drifting from kernels to kernels on same hardware. Fix is simple, it delays buffer_init run till deferred_init_memmap all done. But as corrected by this patch, max_buffer_heads becomes very large, the value is roughly as many as 4 times of totalram_pages, formula: max_buffer_heads = nrpages * (10%) * (PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(struct buffer_head)); Say in a 64GB memory box we have 16777216 pages, then max_buffer_heads turns out to be roughly 67,108,864. In common cases, should a buffer_head be mapped to one page/block(4KB)? So max_buffer_heads never exceeds totalram_pages. IMO it's likely to make buffer_heads_over_limit bool value alwasy false, then make codes 'if (buffer_heads_over_limit)' test in vmscan unnecessary. So this patch will change the original behavior related to buffer_heads_over_limit in vmscan since we used a half done value of zone->managed_pages before, or should we use a smaller factor(<10%) in previous formula. akpm: I think this is OK - the max_buffer_heads code is only needed on highmem machines, to prevent ZONE_NORMAL from being consumed by large amounts of buffer_heads attached to highmem pagecache. This problem will not occur on 64-bit machines, so this feature's non-functionality on such machines is a feature, not a bug.

Page owner of pages used by page owner itself used is missing on arm32 targets. The reason is dummy_handle and failure_handle is not initialized correctly. Buddy allocator is used to initialize these two handles. However, buddy allocator is not ready when page owner calls it. This change fixed that by initializing page owner after buddy initialization. The working flow before and after this change are: original logic: 1. allocated memory for page_ext(using memblock). 2. invoke the init callback of page_ext_ops like page_owner(using buddy allocator). 3. initialize buddy. after this change: 1. allocated memory for page_ext(using memblock). 2. initialize buddy. 3. invoke the init callback of page_ext_ops like page_owner(using buddy allocator). with the change, failure/dummy_handle can get its correct value and page owner output for example has the one for page owner itself: Page allocated via order 2, mask 0x6202c0(GFP_USER|__GFP_NOWARN), pid 1006, ts 67278156558 ns PFN 543776 type Unmovable Block 531 type Unmovable Flags 0x0() init_page_owner+0x28/0x2f8 invoke_init_callbacks_flatmem+0x24/0x34 start_kernel+0x33c/0x5d8 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1603104925-5888-1-git-send-email-zhenhuah@codeaurora.org Signed-off-by:

Recently syzbot reported[0] that there is a deadlock amongst the users of exec_update_mutex. The problematic lock ordering found by lockdep was: perf_event_open (exec_update_mutex -> ovl_i_mutex) chown (ovl_i_mutex -> sb_writes) sendfile (sb_writes -> p->lock) by reading from a proc file and writing to overlayfs proc_pid_syscall (p->lock -> exec_update_mutex) While looking at possible solutions it occured to me that all of the users and possible users involved only wanted to state of the given process to remain the same. They are all readers. The only writer is exec. There is no reason for readers to block on each other. So fix this deadlock by transforming exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore named exec_update_lock that only exec takes for writing.

Currently, '--orphan-handling=warn' is spread out across four different architectures in their respective Makefiles, which makes it a little unruly to deal with in case it needs to be disabled for a specific linker version (in this case, ld.lld 10.0.1). To make it easier to control this, hoist this warning into Kconfig and the main Makefile so that disabling it is simpler, as the warning will only be enabled in a couple places (main Makefile and a couple of compressed boot folders that blow away LDFLAGS_vmlinx) and making it conditional is easier due to Kconfig syntax. One small additional benefit of this is saving a call to ld-option on incremental builds because we will have already evaluated it for CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN. To keep the list of supported architectures the same, introduce CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, which an architecture can select to gain this automatically after all of the sections are specified and size asserted. A special thanks to Kees Cook for the help text on this config. Link: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1187 Acked-by:
