stack: Constrain and fix stack offset randomization with Clang builds
[ Upstream commit efa90c11f62e6b7252fb75efe2787056872a627c ]
All supported versions of Clang perform auto-init of __builtin_alloca()
when stack auto-init is on (CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_{ZERO,PATTERN}).
add_random_kstack_offset() uses __builtin_alloca() to add a stack
offset. This means, when CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_{ZERO,PATTERN} is
enabled, add_random_kstack_offset() will auto-init that unused portion
of the stack used to add an offset.
There are several problems with this:
1. These offsets can be as large as 1023 bytes. Performing
memset() on them isn't exactly cheap, and this is done on
every syscall entry.
2. Architectures adding add_random_kstack_offset() to syscall
entry implemented in C require them to be 'noinstr' (e.g. see
x86 and s390). The potential problem here is that a call to
memset may occur, which is not noinstr.
A x86_64 defconfig kernel with Clang 11 and CONFIG_VMLINUX_VALIDATION shows:
| vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_syscall_64()+0x9d: call to memset() leaves .noinstr.text section
| vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_int80_syscall_32()+0xab: call to memset() leaves .noinstr.text section
| vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __do_fast_syscall_32()+0xe2: call to memset() leaves .noinstr.text section
| vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: fixup_bad_iret()+0x2f: call to memset() leaves .noinstr.text section
Clang 14 (unreleased) will introduce a way to skip alloca initialization
via __builtin_alloca_uninitialized() (https://reviews.llvm.org/D115440).
Constrain RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET to only be enabled if no stack
auto-init is enabled, the compiler is GCC, or Clang is version 14+. Use
__builtin_alloca_uninitialized() if the compiler provides it, as is done
by Clang 14.
