Merge tag 'overflow-v5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull overflow updates from Kees Cook:
"The end goal of the current buffer overflow detection work[0] is to
gain full compile-time and run-time coverage of all detectable buffer
overflows seen via array indexing or memcpy(), memmove(), and
memset(). The str*() family of functions already have full coverage.
While much of the work for these changes have been on-going for many
releases (i.e. 0-element and 1-element array replacements, as well as
avoiding false positives and fixing discovered overflows[1]), this
series contains the foundational elements of several related buffer
overflow detection improvements by providing new common helpers and
FORTIFY_SOURCE changes needed to gain the introspection required for
compiler visibility into array sizes. Also included are a handful of
already Acked instances using the helpers (or related clean-ups), with
many more waiting at the ready to be taken via subsystem-specific
trees[2].
The new helpers are:
- struct_group() for gaining struct member range introspection
- memset_after() and memset_startat() for clearing to the end of
structures
- DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() for using flex arrays in unions or alone in
structs
Also included is the beginning of the refactoring of FORTIFY_SOURCE to
support memcpy() introspection, fix missing and regressed coverage
under GCC, and to prepare to fix the currently broken Clang support.
Finishing this work is part of the larger series[0], but depends on
all the false positives and buffer overflow bug fixes to have landed
already and those that depend on this series to land.
As part of the FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring, a set of both a
compile-time and run-time tests are added for FORTIFY_SOURCE and the
mem*()-family functions respectively. The compile time tests have
found a legitimate (though corner-case) bug[6] already.
Please note that the appearance of "panic" and "BUG" in the
FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring are the result of relocating existing code,
and no new use of those code-paths are expected nor desired.
Finally, there are two tree-wide conversions for 0-element arrays and
flexible array unions to gain sane compiler introspection coverage
that result in no known object code differences.
After this series (and the changes that have now landed via netdev and
usb), we are very close to finally being able to build with
-Warray-bounds and -Wzero-length-bounds.
However, due corner cases in GCC[3] and Clang[4], I have not included
the last two patches that turn on these options, as I don't want to
introduce any known warnings to the build. Hopefully these can be
solved soon"
