bpf: Restrict bpf_probe_read{, str}() only to archs where they work

2020-05-27T15:48:14+00:00

commit 0ebeea8ca8a4d1d453ad299aef0507dab04f6e8d upstream. Given the legacy bpf_probe_read{,str}() BPF helpers are broken on archs with overlapping address ranges, we should really take the next step to disable them from BPF use there. To generally fix the situation, we've recently added new helper variants bpf_probe_read_{user,kernel}() and bpf_probe_read_{user,kernel}_str(). For details on them, see 6ae08ae3dea2 ("bpf: Add probe_read_{user, kernel} and probe_read_{user,kernel}_str helpers"). Given bpf_probe_read{,str}() have been around for ~5 years by now, there are plenty of users at least on x86 still relying on them today, so we cannot remove them entirely w/o breaking the BPF tracing ecosystem. However, their use should be restricted to archs with non-overlapping address ranges where they are working in their current form. Therefore, move this behind a CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE and have x86, arm64, arm select it (other archs supporting it can follow-up on it as well). For the remaining archs, they can workaround easily by relying on the feature probe from bpftool which spills out defines that can be used out of BPF C code to implement the drop-in replacement for old/new kernels via: bpftool feature probe macro Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu Acked-by: Linus Torvalds Cc: Brendan Gregg Cc: Christoph Hellwig Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20200515101118.6508-2-daniel@iogearbox.net Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Stop the ad-hoc games with -Wno-maybe-initialized

2020-05-20T06:22:23+00:00

commit 78a5255ffb6a1af189a83e493d916ba1c54d8c75 upstream. We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.

int128: fix __uint128_t compiler test in Kconfig

2020-03-11T22:43:03+00:00

The support for __uint128_t is dependent on the target bit size. GCC that defaults to the 32-bit can still build the 64-bit kernel with -m64 flag passed. However, $(cc-option,-D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) is evaluated against the default machine bit, which may not match to the kernel it is building. Theoretically, this could be evaluated separately for 64BIT/32BIT. config CC_HAS_INT128 bool default !$(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) if 64BIT default !$(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) I simplified it more because the 32-bit compiler is unlikely to support __uint128_t.

bootconfig: Fix CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING dependency issue

2020-02-26T00:07:58+00:00

Since commit d8a953ddde5e ("bootconfig: Set CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG=n by default") also changed the CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING to select CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG to show the boot-time tracing on the menu, it introduced wrong dependencies with BLK_DEV_INITRD as below. WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for BOOT_CONFIG Depends on [n]: BLK_DEV_INITRD [=n] Selected by [y]: - BOOTTIME_TRACING [=y] && TRACING_SUPPORT [=y] && FTRACE [=y] && TRACING [=y] This makes the CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG selects CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD to fix this error and make CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING=n by default, so that both boot-time tracing and boot configuration off but those appear on the menu list.

bootconfig: Add bootconfig magic word for indicating bootconfig explicitly

2020-02-20T22:52:34+00:00

Add bootconfig magic word to the end of bootconfig on initrd image for indicating explicitly the bootconfig is there. Also tools/bootconfig treats wrong size or wrong checksum or parse error as an error, because if there is a bootconfig magic word, there must be a bootconfig. The bootconfig magic word is "#BOOTCONFIG\n", 12 bytes word. Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is as follows. [Initrd][bootconfig][size][csum][#BOOTCONFIG\n] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/158220112263.26565.3944814205960612841.stgit@devnote2 Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added new "bootconfig". This looks for a file appended to initrd to add boot config options, and has been discussed thoroughly at Linux Plumbers. Very useful for adding kprobes at bootup. Only enabled if "bootconfig" is on the real kernel command line. - Created dynamic event creation. Merges common code between creating synthetic events and kprobe events. - Rename perf "ring_buffer" structure to "perf_buffer" - Rename ftrace "ring_buffer" structure to "trace_buffer" Had to rename existing "trace_buffer" to "array_buffer" - Allow trace_printk() to work withing (some) tracing code. - Sort of tracing configs to be a little better organized - Fixed bug where ftrace_graph hash was not being protected properly - Various other small fixes and clean ups * tag 'trace-v5.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (88 commits) bootconfig: Show the number of nodes on boot message tools/bootconfig: Show the number of bootconfig nodes bootconfig: Add more parse error messages bootconfig: Use bootconfig instead of boot config ftrace: Protect ftrace_graph_hash with ftrace_sync ftrace: Add comment to why rcu_dereference_sched() is open coded tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_notrace_hash pointer with __rcu tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_hash pointer with __rcu bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline tracing: Use seq_buf for building dynevent_cmd string tracing: Remove useless code in dynevent_arg_pair_add() tracing: Remove check_arg() callbacks from dynevent args tracing: Consolidate some synth_event_trace code tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action tracing: Change trace_boot to use synth_event interface tracing: Move tracing selftests to bottom of menu tracing: Move mmio tracer config up with the other tracers tracing: Move tracing test module configs together tracing: Move all function tracing configs together tracing: Documentation for in-kernel synthetic event API ...
