string: uninline memcpy_and_pad

2021-11-03T18:41:25Z

When building m68k:allmodconfig, recent versions of gcc generate the following error if the length of UTS_RELEASE is less than 8 bytes. In function 'memcpy_and_pad', inlined from 'nvmet_execute_disc_identify' at drivers/nvme/target/discovery.c:268:2: arch/m68k/include/asm/string.h:72:25: error: '__builtin_memcpy' reading 8 bytes from a region of size 7 Discussions around the problem suggest that this only happens if an architecture does not provide strlen(), if -ffreestanding is provided as compiler option, and if CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=n. All of this is the case for m68k. The exact reasons are unknown, but seem to be related to the ability of the compiler to evaluate the return value of strlen() and the resulting execution flow in memcpy_and_pad(). It would be possible to work around the problem by using sizeof(UTS_RELEASE) instead of strlen(UTS_RELEASE), but that would only postpone the problem until the function is called in a similar way. Uninline memcpy_and_pad() instead to solve the problem for good.

string.h: Introduce memset_startat() for wiping trailing members and padding

2021-10-18T19:28:52Z

A common idiom in kernel code is to wipe the contents of a structure starting from a given member. These open-coded cases are usually difficult to read and very sensitive to struct layout changes. Like memset_after(), introduce a new helper, memset_startat() that takes the target struct instance, the byte to write, and the member name where zeroing should start. Note that this doesn't zero padding preceding the target member. For those cases, memset_after() should be used on the preceding member. Cc: Steffen Klassert Cc: Herbert Xu Cc: "David S.

fortify: Move remaining fortify helpers into fortify-string.h

2021-09-25T15:20:49Z

When commit a28a6e860c6c ("string.h: move fortified functions definitions in a dedicated header.") moved the fortify-specific code, some helpers were left behind. Move the remaining fortify-specific helpers into fortify-string.h so they're together where they're used. This requires that any FORTIFY helper function prototypes be conditionally built to avoid "no prototype" warnings. Additionally removes unused helpers.

kernel.h: split out kstrtox() and simple_strtox() to a separate header

2021-07-01T18:06:05Z

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out kstrtox() and simple_strtox() helpers. At the same time convert users in header and lib folders to use new header. Though for time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

string.h: move fortified functions definitions in a dedicated header.

2021-02-26T17:41:04Z

This patch adds fortify-string.h to contain fortified functions definitions. Thus, the code is more separated and compile time is approximately 1% faster for people who do not set CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

string.h: add FORTIFY coverage for strscpy()

2020-12-16T06:46:16Z

The fortified version of strscpy ensures the following before vanilla strscpy is called: 1. There is no read overflow because we either size is smaller than src length or we shrink size to src length by calling fortified strnlen. 2. There is no write overflow because we either failed during compilation or at runtime by checking that size is smaller than dest size.

lib: string.h: detect intra-object overflow in fortified string functions

2020-12-16T06:46:16Z

Patch series "Fortify strscpy()", v7. This patch implements a fortified version of strscpy() enabled by setting CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y. The new version ensures the following before calling vanilla strscpy(): 1. There is no read overflow because either size is smaller than src length or we shrink size to src length by calling fortified strnlen(). 2. There is no write overflow because we either failed during compilation or at runtime by checking that size is smaller than dest size. Note that, if src and dst size cannot be got, the patch defaults to call vanilla strscpy(). The patches adds the following: 1. Implement the fortified version of strscpy(). 2. Add a new LKDTM test to ensures the fortified version still returns the same value as the vanilla one while panic'ing when there is a write overflow. 3. Correct some typos in LKDTM related file. I based my modifications on top of two patches from Daniel Axtens which modify calls to __builtin_object_size, in fortified string functions, to ensure the true size of char * are returned and not the surrounding structure size. About performance, I measured the slow down of fortified strscpy(), using the vanilla one as baseline. The hardware I used is an Intel i3 2130 CPU clocked at 3.4 GHz. I ran "Linux 5.10.0-rc4+ SMP PREEMPT" inside qemu 3.10 with 4 CPU cores. The following code, called through LKDTM, was used as a benchmark: #define TIMES 10000 char *src; char dst[7]; int i; ktime_t begin; src = kstrdup("foobar", GFP_KERNEL); if (src == NULL) return; begin = ktime_get(); for (i = 0; i < TIMES; i++) strscpy(dst, src, strlen(src)); pr_info("%d fortified strscpy() tooks %lld", TIMES, ktime_get() - begin); begin = ktime_get(); for (i = 0; i < TIMES; i++) __real_strscpy(dst, src, strlen(src)); pr_info("%d vanilla strscpy() tooks %lld", TIMES, ktime_get() - begin); kfree(src); I called the above code 30 times to compute stats for each version (in ns, round to int): | version | mean | std | median | 95th | | --------- | ------- | ------ | ------- | ------- | | fortified | 245_069 | 54_657 | 216_230 | 331_122 | | vanilla | 172_501 | 70_281 | 143_539 | 219_553 | On average, fortified strscpy() is approximately 1.42 times slower than vanilla strscpy(). For the 95th percentile, the fortified version is about 1.50 times slower. So, clearly the stats are not in favor of fortified strscpy(). But, the fortified version loops the string twice (one in strnlen() and another in vanilla strscpy()) while the vanilla one only loops once. This can explain why fortified strscpy() is slower than the vanilla one. This patch (of 5): When the fortify feature was first introduced in commit 6974f0c4555e ("include/linux/string.h: add the option of fortified string.h functions"), Daniel Micay observed: * It should be possible to optionally use __builtin_object_size(x, 1) for some functions (C strings) to detect intra-object overflows (like glibc's _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), but for now this takes the conservative approach to avoid likely compatibility issues. This is a case that often cannot be caught by KASAN. Consider: struct foo { char a[10]; char b[10]; } void test() { char *msg; struct foo foo; msg = kmalloc(16, GFP_KERNEL); strcpy(msg, "Hello world!!"); // this copy overwrites foo.b strcpy(foo.a, msg); } The questionable copy overflows foo.a and writes to foo.b as well. It cannot be detected by KASAN. Currently it is also not detected by fortify, because strcpy considers __builtin_object_size(x, 0), which considers the size of the surrounding object (here, struct foo). However, if we switch the string functions over to use __builtin_object_size(x, 1), the compiler will measure the size of the closest surrounding subobject (here, foo.a), rather than the size of the surrounding object as a whole. See https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Object-Size-Checking.html for more info. Only do this for string functions: we cannot use it on things like memcpy, memmove, memcmp and memchr_inv due to code like this which purposefully operates on multiple structure members: (arch/x86/kernel/traps.c) /* * regs->sp points to the failing IRET frame on the * ESPFIX64 stack. Copy it to the entry stack. This fills * in gpregs->ss through gpregs->ip. * */ memmove(&gpregs->ip, (void *)regs->sp, 5*8); This change passes an allyesconfig on powerpc and x86, and an x86 kernel built with it survives running with syz-stress from syzkaller, so it seems safe so far.
