With KASAN enabled the kernel has two different memset() functions, one with KASAN checks (memset) and one without (__memset). KASAN uses some macro tricks to use the proper version where required. For example memset() calls in mm/slub.c are without KASAN checks, since they operate on poisoned slab object metadata. The issue is that clang emits memset() calls even when there is no memset() in the source code. They get linked with improper memset() implementation and the kernel fails to boot due to a huge amount of KASAN reports during early boot stages. The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag for files with KASAN_SANITIZE := n marker.

Kbuild supports 3 levels of extra warnings, and multiple levels can be combined, like W=12, W=123. It was added by commit a6de553d ("kbuild: Allow to combine multiple W= levels"). From the log of commit 8654cb8d ("dtc: update warning settings for new bus and node/property name checks"), I assume: - unit_address_vs_reg, simple_bus_reg, etc. belong to level 1 - node_name_chars_strict, property_name_chars_strict belong to level 2 However, the level 1 warnings are displayed by any argument to W=. On the other hand, the level 2 warnings are displayed by W=2, but not by W=12, or W=123. Use $(findstring ...) like scripts/Makefile.extrawarn. Signed-off-by:

In Linux build system convention, pre-generated files are version- controlled with a "_shipped" suffix. During the kernel building, they are simply shipped (copied) removing the suffix. This approach can reduce external tool dependency for the kernel build, but it is tedious to manually regenerate such artifacts from developers' point of view. (We need to do "make REGENERATE_PARSERS=1" every time we touch real source files such as *.l, *.y) Some months ago, I sent out RFC patches to run flex, bison, and gperf during the build. In the review and test, Linus noticed gperf-3.1 had changed the lookup function prototype. Then, the use of gperf in kernel was entirely removed by commit bb3290d9 ("Remove gperf usage from toolchain"). This time, I tested several versions of flex and bison, and I was not hit by any compatibility issue except a flaw in flex-2.6.3; if you generate lexer for dtc and genksyms with flex-2.6.3, you will see "yywrap redefined" warning. This was not intentional, but a bug, fixed by flex-2.6.4. Otherwise, both flex and bison look fairly stable for a long time. This commit prepares some build rules to remove the _shipped files. Also, document minimal requirement for flex and bison. Rationale for the minimal version: The -Wmissing-prototypes option of GCC warns "no previous prototype" for lexers generated by flex-2.5.34 or older, so I chose 2.5.35 as the required version for flex. Flex-2.5.35 was released in 2008. Bison looks more stable. I did not see any problem with bison-2.0, released in 2004. I did not test bison-1.x, but bison-2.0 should be old enough. Tested flex versions: 2.5.35 2.5.36 2.5.37 2.5.39 2.6.0 2.6.1 2.6.2 2.6.3 (*) 2.6.4 (*) flex-2.6.3 causes "yywrap redefined" warning Tested bison versions: 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.4.1 2.5.1 2.6 2.6.1 2.6.2 2.6.3 2.6.4 2.6.5 2.7 2.7.1 3.0 3.0.1 3.0.2 3.0.3 3.0.4 Signed-off-by:

For the out-of-tree build, scripts/Makefile.build creates output directories, but this operation is not efficient. scripts/Makefile.lib calculates obj-dirs as follows: obj-dirs := $(dir $(multi-objs) $(obj-y)) Please notice $(sort ...) is not used here. Usually the result is as many "./" as objects here. For a lot of duplicated paths, the following command is invoked. _dummy := $(foreach d,$(obj-dirs), $(shell [ -d $(d) ] || mkdir -p $(d))) Then, the costly shell command is run over and over again. I see many points for optimization: [1] Use $(sort ...) to cut down duplicated paths before passing them to system call [2] Use single $(shell ...) instead of repeating it with $(foreach ...) This will reduce forking. [3] We can calculate obj-dirs more simply. Most of objects are already accumulated in $(targets). So, $(dir $(targets)) is fine and more comprehensive. I also removed ugly code in arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile. This is now really unnecessary. Signed-off-by:

If CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS is enabled, "make ARCH=arm64 dtbs" compiles each DTB twice; one from arch/arm64/boot/dts/*/Makefile and the other from the dtb-$(CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS) line in arch/arm64/boot/dts/Makefile. It could be a race problem when building DTBS in parallel. Another minor issue is CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS covers only *.dts in vendor sub-directories, so this broke when Broadcom added one more hierarchy in arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/<soc>/. One idea to fix the issues in a clean way is to move DTB handling to Kbuild core scripts. Makefile.dtbinst already recognizes dtb-y natively, so it should not hurt to do so. Add $(dtb-y) to extra-y, and $(dtb-) as well if CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS is enabled. All clutter things in Makefiles go away. As a bonus clean-up, I also removed dts-dirs. Just use subdir-y directly to traverse sub-directories. Signed-off-by:

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. Reviewed-by:

We use a directory under arch/$ARCH/boot/dts as an include path that has links outside of the subtree to find dt-bindings from under include/dt-bindings. That's been working well, but new DT architectures haven't been adding them by default. Recently there's been a desire to share some of the DT material between arm and arm64, which originally caused developers to create symlinks or relative includes between the subtrees. This isn't ideal -- it breaks if the DT files aren't stored in the exact same hierarchy as the kernel tree, and generally it's just icky. As a somewhat cleaner solution we decided to add a $ARCH/ prefix link once, and allow DTS files to reference dtsi (and dts) files in other architectures that way. Original approach was to create these links under each architecture, but it lead to the problem of recursive symlinks. As a remedy, move the include link directories out of the architecture trees into a common location. At the same time, they can now share one directory and one dt-bindings/ link as well.

For more targeted fuzzing, it's better to disable kernel-wide instrumentation and instead enable it on a per-subsystem basis. 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:

When building with separate object directories and driver specific Makefiles that add additional header include paths, Kbuild adjusts the gcc flags so that we include both the directory in the source tree and in the object tree. However, due to another bug I fixed earlier, this did not actually include the correct directory in the object tree, so we know that we only really need the source tree here. Also, including the object tree sometimes causes warnings about nonexisting directories when the include path only exists in the source. This changes the logic to only emit the -I argument for the srctree, not for objects. We still need both $(srctree)/$(src) and $(obj) though, so I'm adding them manually. Signed-off-by:

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.

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.

It is already possible to remove CFLAGS with the CFLAGS_REMOVE option that was introduced with commit 656ee82c ("kbuild: create new CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o option"). However it is not possible to remove AFLAGS for assembler files. So this patch just adds the AFLAGS_REMOVE option which works the same like CFLAGS_REMOVE. Signed-off-by:

This allows to write drm-$(CONFIG_AGP) += drm_agpsupport.o without having to handle CONFIG_AGP=y vs. CONFIG_AGP=m. Only support this syntax for modules, since built-in code depending on something modular cannot work and init/Makefile actually relies on the current semantics. There are a few drivers which adapted to the current semantics out of necessity; these are fixed to also work when the respective subsystem is modular.

Kernel Address sanitizer (KASan) is a dynamic memory error detector. It provides fast and comprehensive solution for finding use-after-free and out-of-bounds bugs. KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation for checking every memory access, therefore GCC > v4.9.2 required. v4.9.2 almost works, but has issues with putting symbol aliases into the wrong section, which breaks kasan instrumentation of globals. This patch only adds infrastructure for kernel address sanitizer. It's not available for use yet. The idea and some code was borrowed from [1]. Basic idea: The main idea of KASAN is to use shadow memory to record whether each byte of memory is safe to access or not, and use compiler's instrumentation to check the shadow memory on each memory access. Address sanitizer uses 1/8 of the memory addressable in kernel for shadow memory and uses direct mapping with a scale and offset to translate a memory address to its corresponding shadow address. Here is function to translate address to corresponding shadow address: unsigned long kasan_mem_to_shadow(unsigned long addr) { return (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET; } where KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT = 3. So for every 8 bytes there is one corresponding byte of shadow memory. The following encoding used for each shadow byte: 0 means that all 8 bytes of the corresponding memory region are valid for access; k (1 <= k <= 7) means that the first k bytes are valid for access, and other (8 - k) bytes are not; Any negative value indicates that the entire 8-bytes are inaccessible. Different negative values used to distinguish between different kinds of inaccessible memory (redzones, freed memory) (see mm/kasan/kasan.h). To be able to detect accesses to bad memory we need a special compiler. Such compiler inserts a specific function calls (__asan_load*(addr), __asan_store*(addr)) before each memory access of size 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16. These functions check whether memory region is valid to access or not by checking corresponding shadow memory. If access is not valid an error printed. Historical background of the address sanitizer from Dmitry Vyukov: "We've developed the set of tools, AddressSanitizer (Asan), ThreadSanitizer and MemorySanitizer, for user space. We actively use them for testing inside of Google (continuous testing, fuzzing, running prod services). To date the tools have found more than 10'000 scary bugs in Chromium, Google internal codebase and various open-source projects (Firefox, OpenSSL, gcc, clang, ffmpeg, MySQL and lots of others): [2] [3] [4]. The tools are part of both gcc and clang compilers. We have not yet done massive testing under the Kernel AddressSanitizer (it's kind of chicken and egg problem, you need it to be upstream to start applying it extensively). To date it has found about 50 bugs. Bugs that we've found in upstream kernel are listed in [5]. We've also found ~20 bugs in out internal version of the kernel. Also people from Samsung and Oracle have found some. [...] As others noted, the main feature of AddressSanitizer is its performance due to inline compiler instrumentation and simple linear shadow memory. User-space Asan has ~2x slowdown on computational programs and ~2x memory consumption increase. Taking into account that kernel usually consumes only small fraction of CPU and memory when running real user-space programs, I would expect that kernel Asan will have ~10-30% slowdown and similar memory consumption increase (when we finish all tuning). I agree that Asan can well replace kmemcheck. We have plans to start working on Kernel MemorySanitizer that finds uses of unitialized memory. Asan+Msan will provide feature-parity with kmemcheck. As others noted, Asan will unlikely replace debug slab and pagealloc that can be enabled at runtime. Asan uses compiler instrumentation, so even if it is disabled, it still incurs visible overheads. Asan technology is easily portable to other architectures. Compiler instrumentation is fully portable. Runtime has some arch-dependent parts like shadow mapping and atomic operation interception. They are relatively easy to port." Comparison with other debugging features: ======================================== KMEMCHECK: - KASan can do almost everything that kmemcheck can. KASan uses compile-time instrumentation, which makes it significantly faster than kmemcheck. The only advantage of kmemcheck over KASan is detection of uninitialized memory reads. Some brief performance testing showed that kasan could be x500-x600 times faster than kmemcheck: $ netperf -l 30 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec no debug: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 41624.72 kasan inline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 12870.54 kasan outline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 10586.39 kmemcheck: 87380 16384 16384 30.03 20.23 - Also kmemcheck couldn't work on several CPUs. It always sets number of CPUs to 1. KASan doesn't have such limitation. DEBUG_PAGEALLOC: - KASan is slower than DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but KASan works on sub-page granularity level, so it able to find more bugs. SLUB_DEBUG (poisoning, redzones): - SLUB_DEBUG has lower overhead than KASan. - SLUB_DEBUG in most cases are not able to detect bad reads, KASan able to detect both reads and writes. - In some cases (e.g. redzone overwritten) SLUB_DEBUG detect bugs only on allocation/freeing of object. KASan catch bugs right before it will happen, so we always know exact place of first bad read/write.

Move dtbs install rules to Makefile.dtbinst. This change is needed to implement support for dts vendor subdirs. The change makes Makefiles easier and smaller as no longer the dtbs_install rule needs to be defined. Another advantage is that install goals are not encoded in targets anymore (%.dtb_dtbinst_).

The comment in scripts/Makefile.build says as follows: We would rather have a list of rules like foo.o: $(foo-objs) but that's not so easy, so we rather make all composite objects depend on the set of all their parts This commit makes it possible! For example, assume a Makefile like this obj-m = foo.o bar.o foo-objs := foo1.o foo2.o bar-objs := bar1.o bar2.o Without this patch, foo.o depends on all of foo1.o foo2.o bar1.o bar2.o. It looks funny that foo.o is regenerated when bar1.c is updated. Now we can handle the dependency of foo.o and bar.o separately. Signed-off-by:

Unlike other build products in the Linux kernel, there is no 'make *install' mechanism to put devicetree blobs in a standard place. This commit adds a new 'dtbs_install' make target which copies all of the dtbs into the INSTALL_DTBS_PATH directory. INSTALL_DTBS_PATH can be set before calling make to change the default install directory. If not set then it defaults to: $INSTALL_PATH/dtbs/$KERNELRELEASE. This is done to keep dtbs from different kernel versions separate until things have settled down. Once the dtbs are stable, and not so strongly linked to the kernel version, the devicetree files will most likely move to their own repo. Users will need to upgrade install scripts at that time. v7: (reworked by Grant Likely) - Moved rules from arch/arm/Makefile to arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile so that each dtb install could have a separate target and be reported as part of the make output. - Fixed dependency problem to ensure $KERNELRELEASE is calculated before attempting to install - Removed option to call external script. Copying the files should be sufficient and a build system can post-process the install directory. Despite the fact an external script is used for installing the kernel, I don't think that is a pattern that should be encouraged. I would rather see buildroot type tools post process the install directory to rename or move dtb files after installing to a staging directory. - Plus it is easy to add a hook after the fact without blocking the rest of this feature. - Move the helper targets into scripts/Makefile.lib with the rest of the common dtb rules Signed-off-by:

The testcase data is usable by any platform. This patch moves it into the drivers/of directory so it can be included by any architecture. Using the test cases requires manually adding #include <testcases.dtsi> to the end of the boards .dtsi file and enabling CONFIG_OF_SELFTEST. Not pretty though. A useful project would be to make the testcase code easier to execute. Signed-off-by:
