Hi,
In our continuing effort to eliminate root causes of flaws in the kernel,
this series is the start to providing a way to have sensible coverage
for catching unexpected arithmetic wrap-around.
A quick word on language: while discussing[1] the finer details of
the C standard's view on arithmetic, I was disabused of using the term
"overflow" when what I really mean is "wrap-around". When describing
security vulnerabilities, "overflow" is the common term and often used
interchangeably with "wrap-around". Strictly speaking, though, "overflow"
applies only to signed[2] and pointer[3] types, and "wrap-around" is for
unsigned[4]. An arithmetic "overflow" is considered undefined behavior,
which has caused our builds pain in the past, since "impossible"
conditions might get elided by the compiler. As a result, we build
with -fno-strict-overflow which coverts all "overflow" conditions into
"wrap-around" (i.e. 2s complement), regardless of type.
All this is to say I am discussing arithmetic wrap-around, which is
the condition where the value exceeds a type's maximum value (or goes
below its minimum value) and wraps around. I'm not interested in the
narrow definition of "undefined behavior" -- we need to stamp out the
_unexpected_ behavior, where the kernel operates on a pathological value
that wrapped around without the code author's intent.
As always, this is about being able disambiguate the intent of arithmetic
in the kernel. We intentionally use wrapping arithmetic in all kinds of
places, but we need to be able to annotate it as such going forward so
the compiler can distinguish when it needs to perform instrumentation
(when such instrumentation is enabled).
Getting back to my earlier mention of -fno-strict-overflow, the bulk of
the series is refactoring for a common code pattern in the kernel where
to test for potentially overflowing addition, the addition is performed,
and wrap-around is tested for. This is what originally[5] caused us to
enable -fno-strict-overflow:
var + offset < var
For these cases we can use either check_add_overflow() or
add_would_overflow(). These helpers will not trip the wrap-around
instrumentation, and do not depend on the whims of the compiler options.
(Note that I have no intention of removing -fno-strict-overflow any
time soon, if ever. As with all these kinds of changes, we need to
evolve our support for it, and we can't introduce undefined behavior
into the kernel.)
This series is mainly 3 parts:
- documentation, a coccinelle script, and new/improved helpers
- (re)introduction of the overflow sanitizers
- refactoring the "please wrap around to see if I wrapped around" tests
While this work is underway in the kernel, there will be complementary
work happening in GCC and Clang to expand the existing sanitizers
to behave correctly with -fno-strict-overflow. In the meantime, the
sanitizers are excluded from CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.
