Kees Cook 81a56f6dcd gcc-plugins: structleak: Generalize to all variable types
This adjusts structleak to also work with non-struct types when they
are passed by reference, since those variables may leak just like
anything else. This is exposed via an improved set of Kconfig options.
(This does mean structleak is slightly misnamed now.)

Building with CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL should give the
kernel complete initialization coverage of all stack variables passed
by reference, including padding (see lib/test_stackinit.c).

Using CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_VERBOSE to count added initializations
under defconfig:

	..._BYREF:      5945 added initializations
	..._BYREF_ALL: 16606 added initializations

There is virtually no change to text+data size (both have less than 0.05%
growth):

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
19502103        5051456 1917000 26470559        193e89f vmlinux.stock
19513412        5051456 1908808 26473676        193f4cc vmlinux.byref
19516974        5047360 1900616 26464950        193d2b6 vmlinux.byref_all

The measured performance difference is in the noise for hackbench and
kernel build benchmarks:

Stock:

	5x hackbench -g 20 -l 1000
	Mean:   10.649s
	Std Dev: 0.339

	5x kernel build (4-way parallel)
	Mean:  261.98s
	Std Dev: 1.53

CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF:

	5x hackbench -g 20 -l 1000
	Mean:   10.540s
	Std Dev: 0.233

	5x kernel build (4-way parallel)
	Mean:  260.52s
	Std Dev: 1.31

CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL:

	5x hackbench -g 20 -l 1000
	Mean:   10.320
	Std Dev: 0.413

	5x kernel build (4-way parallel)
	Mean:  260.10
	Std Dev: 0.86

This does not yet solve missing padding initialization for structures
on the stack that are never passed by reference (which should be a tiny
minority). Hopefully this will be more easily addressed by upstream
compiler fixes after clarifying the C11 padding initialization
specification.

GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the
compiler. They are useful for runtime instrumentation and static analysis.
See Documentation/gcc-plugins.txt for details.

bool "Compute the cyclomatic complexity of a function" if EXPERT
depends on !COMPILE_TEST # too noisy
help
The complexity M of a function's control flow graph is defined as:
M = E - N + 2P
where
E = the number of edges
N = the number of nodes
P = the number of connected components (exit nodes).
Enabling this plugin reports the complexity to stderr during the
build. It mainly serves as a simple example of how to create a
gcc plugin for the kernel.
config GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV
bool
help
This plugin inserts a __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() call at the start of
basic blocks. It supports all gcc versions with plugin support (from
gcc-4.5 on). It is based on the commit "Add fuzzing coverage support"
by Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>.
config GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY
bool "Generate some entropy during boot and runtime"
help
By saying Y here the kernel will instrument some kernel code to
extract some entropy from both original and artificially created
program state. This will help especially embedded systems where
there is little 'natural' source of entropy normally. The cost
is some slowdown of the boot process (about 0.5%) and fork and
irq processing.
Note that entropy extracted this way is not cryptographically
secure!

depends on !KASAN_EXTRA
help
While the kernel is built with warnings enabled for any missed
stack variable initializations, this warning is silenced for
anything passed by reference to another function, under the
occasionally misguided assumption that the function will do
the initialization. As this regularly leads to exploitable
flaws, this plugin is available to identify and zero-initialize
such variables, depending on the chosen level of coverage.

config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_VERBOSE
bool "Report forcefully initialized variables"
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
depends on !COMPILE_TEST # too noisy
help
This option will cause a warning to be printed each time the
structleak plugin finds a variable it thinks needs to be
initialized. Since not all existing initializers are detected
by the plugin, this can produce false positive warnings.
config GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT
bool "Randomize layout of sensitive kernel structures"
select MODVERSIONS if MODULES
help
If you say Y here, the layouts of structures that are entirely
function pointers (and have not been manually annotated with
__no_randomize_layout), or structures that have been explicitly
marked with __randomize_layout, will be randomized at compile-time.
This can introduce the requirement of an additional information
exposure vulnerability for exploits targeting these structure
types.
Enabling this feature will introduce some performance impact,
slightly increase memory usage, and prevent the use of forensic
tools like Volatility against the system (unless the kernel
source tree isn't cleaned after kernel installation).
The seed used for compilation is located at
scripts/gcc-plgins/randomize_layout_seed.h. It remains after
a make clean to allow for external modules to be compiled with
the existing seed and will be removed by a make mrproper or
make distclean.
Note that the implementation requires gcc 4.7 or newer.

config GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE
bool "Use cacheline-aware structure randomization"
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT
depends on !COMPILE_TEST # do not reduce test coverage
help
If you say Y here, the RANDSTRUCT randomization will make a
best effort at restricting randomization to cacheline-sized
groups of elements. It will further not randomize bitfields
in structures. This reduces the performance hit of RANDSTRUCT
at the cost of weakened randomization.
config GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK
bool "Erase the kernel stack before returning from syscalls"
depends on GCC_PLUGINS
depends on HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK
help
This option makes the kernel erase the kernel stack before
returning from system calls. That reduces the information which
kernel stack leak bugs can reveal and blocks some uninitialized
stack variable attacks.
The tradeoff is the performance impact: on a single CPU system kernel
compilation sees a 1% slowdown, other systems and workloads may vary
and you are advised to test this feature on your expected workload
before deploying it.

help
The STACKLEAK gcc plugin instruments the kernel code for tracking
the lowest border of the kernel stack (and for some other purposes).
It inserts the stackleak_track_stack() call for the functions with
a stack frame size greater than or equal to this parameter.
If unsure, leave the default value 100.

If this is set, STACKLEAK metrics for every task are available in

shows the maximum kernel stack consumption for the current and

can be useful for estimating the STACKLEAK performance impact for
your workloads.
config STACKLEAK_RUNTIME_DISABLE
