modules: inherit TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE

2021-05-22T08:57:24Z

commit 262e6ae7081df304fc625cf368d5c2cbba2bb991 upstream. If a TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE exports symbol, inherit the taint flag for all modules importing these symbols, and don't allow loading symbols from TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE modules if the module previously imported gplonly symbols. Add a anti-circumvention devices so people don't accidentally get themselves into trouble this way.

include/linux/module.h: copy init/exit attrs to init/cleanup_module

2019-06-09T07:18:19Z

commit a6e60d84989fa0e91db7f236eda40453b0e44afa upstream. The upcoming GCC 9 release extends the -Wmissing-attributes warnings (enabled by -Wall) to C and aliases: it warns when particular function attributes are missing in the aliases but not in their target. In particular, it triggers for all the init/cleanup_module aliases in the kernel (defined by the module_init/exit macros), ending up being very noisy. These aliases point to the __init/__exit functions of a module, which are defined as __cold (among other attributes). However, the aliases themselves do not have the __cold attribute. Since the compiler behaves differently when compiling a __cold function as well as when compiling paths leading to calls to __cold functions, the warning is trying to point out the possibly-forgotten attribute in the alias. In order to keep the warning enabled, we decided to silence this case. Ideally, we would mark the aliases directly as __init/__exit. However, there are currently around 132 modules in the kernel which are missing __init/__exit in their init/cleanup functions (either because they are missing, or for other reasons, e.g. the functions being called from somewhere else); and a section mismatch is a hard error. A conservative alternative was to mark the aliases as __cold only. However, since we would like to eventually enforce __init/__exit to be always marked, we chose to use the new __copy function attribute (introduced by GCC 9 as well to deal with this). With it, we copy the attributes used by the target functions into the aliases. This way, functions that were not marked as __init/__exit won't have their aliases marked either, and therefore there won't be a section mismatch. Note that the warning would go away marking either the extern declaration, the definition, or both. However, we only mark the definition of the alias, since we do not want callers (which only see the declaration) to be compiled as if the function was __cold (and therefore the paths leading to those calls would be assumed to be unlikely).

module/retpoline: Warn about missing retpoline in module

2018-02-07T19:12:18Z

commit caf7501a1b4ec964190f31f9c3f163de252273b8 There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the right compiler or the right option. To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source or prebuilt object files are not checked. If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

module: Remove const attribute from alias for MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE

2017-07-29T21:39:23Z

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(type, name) creates an alias of type 'extern const typeof(name)'. If 'name' is already constant the 'const' attribute is specified twice, which is not allowed in C89 (see discussion at https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/23/1440). Since the kernel is built with -std=gnu89 clang generates warnings like this: drivers/thermal/x86_pkg_temp_thermal.c:509:1: warning: duplicate 'const' declaration specifier [-Wduplicate-decl-specifier] MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, pkg_temp_thermal_ids); ^ ./include/linux/module.h:212:8: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE' extern const typeof(name) __mod_##type##__##name##_device_table Remove the const attribute from the alias to avoid the duplicate specifier. After all it is only an alias and the attribute shouldn't have any effect. Signed-off-by: Matthias Kaehlcke Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu
