<title>ARM: 9407/1: Add support for STACKLEAK gcc plugin</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2335c9cb831faba1a4efcc612886073b6f175fe4</id>
<content type='text'>
Add the STACKLEAK gcc plugin to arm32 by adding the helper used by
stackleak common code: on_thread_stack(). It initialize the stack with the
poison value before returning from system calls which improves the kernel
security. Additionally, this disables the plugin in EFI stub code and
decompress code, which are out of scope for the protection.

Before the test on Qemu versatilepb board:
	# echo STACKLEAK_ERASING  &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
	lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING
	lkdtm: XFAIL: stackleak is not supported on this arch (HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK=n)

After:
	# echo STACKLEAK_ERASING  &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
	lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING
	lkdtm: stackleak stack usage:
	  high offset: 80 bytes
	  current:     280 bytes
	  lowest:      696 bytes
	  tracked:     696 bytes
	  untracked:   192 bytes
	  poisoned:    7220 bytes
	  low offset:  4 bytes
	lkdtm: OK: the rest of the thread stack is properly erased

<title>Makefile: remove redundant tool coverage variables</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7f7f6f7ad654b326897c9f54438a06f03454bd0d</id>
<content type='text'>
Now Kbuild provides reasonable defaults for objtool, sanitizers, and
profilers.

Remove redundant variables.

Note:

This commit changes the coverage for some objects:

  - include arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o into UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/sparc/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into UBSAN
  - include arch/sparc/vdso/vma.o into UBSAN
  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/extable.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vma.o into GCOV, KCOV
  - include arch/x86/um/vdso/vma.o into KASAN, GCOV, KCOV

I believe these are positive effects because all of them are kernel
space objects.

With commit 8debed3efe3a ("kbuild: export top-level LDFLAGS_vmlinux
only to scripts/Makefile.vmlinux") applied, we no longer see the error
message while building the ARM zImage, but we do not have a good reason
to complicate the file path either.

'$(obj)/../../../../vmlinux' is canonicalized to 'vmlinux'.

Pull kernel hardening updates from Kees Cook:

 - Convert flexible array members, fix -Wstringop-overflow warnings, and
   fix KCFI function type mismatches that went ignored by maintainers
   (Gustavo A. R. Silva, Nathan Chancellor, Kees Cook)

 - Remove the remaining side-effect users of ksize() by converting
   dma-buf, btrfs, and coredump to using kmalloc_size_roundup(), add
   more __alloc_size attributes, and introduce full testing of all
   allocator functions. Finally remove the ksize() side-effect so that
   each allocation-aware checker can finally behave without exceptions

 - Introduce oops_limit (default 10,000) and warn_limit (default off) to
   provide greater granularity of control for panic_on_oops and
   panic_on_warn (Jann Horn, Kees Cook)

 - Introduce overflows_type() and castable_to_type() helpers for cleaner
   overflow checking

 - Improve code generation for strscpy() and update str*() kern-doc

 - Convert strscpy and sigphash tests to KUnit, and expand memcpy tests

 - Always use a non-NULL argument for prepare_kernel_cred()

 - Disable structleak plugin in FORTIFY KUnit test (Anders Roxell)

 - Adjust orphan linker section checking to respect CONFIG_WERROR (Xin
   Li)

 - Make sure siginfo is cleared for forced SIGKILL (haifeng.xu)

 - Fix um vs FORTIFY warnings for always-NULL arguments

<title>ARM: 9263/1: use .arch directives instead of assembler command line flags</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a2faac39866d0313f3ca59c36a9f4e077faf4f53</id>
<content type='text'>
Similar to commit a6c30873ee4a ("ARM: 8989/1: use .fpu assembler
directives instead of assembler arguments").

GCC and GNU binutils support setting the "sub arch" via -march=,
-Wa,-march, target function attribute, and .arch assembler directive.

Clang was missing support for -Wa,-march=, but this was implemented in
clang-13.

The behavior of both GCC and Clang is to
prefer -Wa,-march= over -march= for assembler and assembler-with-cpp
sources, but Clang will warn about the -march= being unused.

clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-march=armv6k'
[-Wunused-command-line-argument]

Since most assembler is non-conditionally assembled with one sub arch
(modulo arch/arm/delay-loop.S which conditionally is assembled as armv4
based on CONFIG_ARCH_RPC, and arch/arm/mach-at91/pm-suspend.S which is
conditionally assembled as armv7-a based on CONFIG_CPU_V7), prefer the
.arch assembler directive.

Add a few more instances found in compile testing as found by Arnd and
Nathan.

<title>kbuild: upgrade the orphan section warning to an error if CONFIG_WERROR is set</title>

Andrew Cooper suggested upgrading the orphan section warning to a hard link
error. However Nathan Chancellor said outright turning the warning into an
error with no escape hatch might be too aggressive, as we have had these
warnings triggered by new compiler generated sections, and suggested turning
orphan sections into an error only if CONFIG_WERROR is set. Kees Cook echoed
and emphasized that the mandate from Linus is that we should avoid breaking
builds. It wrecks bisection, it causes problems across compiler versions, etc.

Thus upgrade the orphan section warning to a hard link error only if
CONFIG_WERROR is set.

  AS      arch/arm/boot/compressed/lib1funcs.o
  AS      arch/arm/boot/compressed/ashldi3.o
  AS      arch/arm/boot/compressed/bswapsdi2.o

Move the "OBJS += ..." line up so these objects are added to 'targets'.

 "Updates for IRQ stacks and virtually mapped stack support, and ftrace:

   - Support for IRQ and vmap'ed stacks

     This covers all the work related to implementing IRQ stacks and
     vmap'ed stacks for all 32-bit ARM systems that are currently
     supported by the Linux kernel, including RiscPC and Footbridge. It
     has been submitted for review in four different waves:

      - IRQ stacks support for v7 SMP systems [0]

      - vmap'ed stacks support for v7 SMP systems[1]

      - extending support for both IRQ stacks and vmap'ed stacks for all
        remaining configurations, including v6/v7 SMP multiplatform
        kernels and uniprocessor configurations including v7-M [2]

      - fixes and updates in [3]

   - ftrace fixes and cleanups

     Make all flavors of ftrace available on all builds, regardless of
     ISA choice, unwinder choice or compiler [4]:

      - use ADD not POP where possible

      - fix a couple of Thumb2 related issues

      - enable HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST for robustness

      - enable the graph tracer with the EABI unwinder

      - avoid clobbering frame pointer registers to make Clang happy

   - Fixes for the above"
