2022-06-10treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - gpl-2.0_385.RULEThomas Gleixner
Based on the normalized pattern: licensed under the gpl v2 extracted by the scancode license scanner the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-only has been chosen to replace the boilerplate/reference.

2022-05-24gcc-plugins: use KERNELVERSION for plugin versionMasahiro Yamada
Commit 61f60bac8c05 ("gcc-plugins: Change all version strings match kernel") broke parallel builds. Instead of adding the dependency between GCC plugins and utsrelease.h, let's use KERNELVERSION, which does not require any build artifact. Another reason why I want to avoid utsrelease.h is because it depends on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION(_AUTO) and localversion* files. (include/generated/utsrelease.h depends on include/config/kernel.release, which is generated by scripts/setlocalversion) I want to keep host tools independent of the kernel configuration. There is no good reason to rebuild GCC plugins just because of CONFIG_LOCALVERSION being changed. We just want to associate the plugin versions with the kernel source version. KERNELVERSION should be enough for our purpose.

2022-05-10gcc-plugins: Change all version strings match kernelKees Cook
It's not meaningful for the GCC plugins to track their versions separately from the rest of the kernel. Switch all versions to the kernel version. Fix mismatched indenting while we're at it. Cc: linux-hardening@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

2020-07-13gcc-plugins: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS onesAlexander A. Klimov
Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

2019-03-04gcc-plugins: structleak: Generalize to all variable typesKees Cook
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.

2018-02-05gcc-plugins: Use dynamic initializersKees Cook
GCC 8 changed the order of some fields and is very picky about ordering in static initializers, so instead just move to dynamic initializers, and drop the redundant already-zero field assignments.

2017-08-07gcc-plugins: structleak: add option to init all vars used as byref argsArd Biesheuvel
In the Linux kernel, struct type variables are rarely passed by-value, and so functions that initialize such variables typically take an input reference to the variable rather than returning a value that can subsequently be used in an assignment. If the initalization function is not part of the same compilation unit, the lack of an assignment operation defeats any analysis the compiler can perform as to whether the variable may be used before having been initialized. This means we may end up passing on such variables uninitialized, resulting in potential information leaks. So extend the existing structleak GCC plugin so it will [optionally] apply to all struct type variables that have their address taken at any point, rather than only to variables of struct types that have a __user annotation.

2017-01-18gcc-plugins: Add structleak for more stack initializationKees Cook
This plugin detects any structures that contain __user attributes and makes sure it is being fully initialized so that a specific class of information exposure is eliminated. (This plugin was originally designed to block the exposure of siginfo in CVE-2013-2141.) Ported from grsecurity/PaX. This version adds a verbose option to the plugin and the Kconfig.
