Arnd Bergmann 173e6ee21e structleak: disable STRUCTLEAK_BYREF in combination with KASAN_STACK
The combination of KASAN_STACK and GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF
leads to much larger kernel stack usage, as seen from the warnings
about functions that now exceed the 2048 byte limit:

The structleak plugin was previously disabled for CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST,
but meant we missed some bugs, so this time we should address them.

The frame size warnings are distracting, and risking a kernel stack
overflow is generally not beneficial to performance, so it may be best
to disallow that particular combination. This can be done by turning
off either one. I picked the dependency in GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF
and GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL, as this option is designed to
make uninitialized stack usage less harmful when enabled on its own,
but it also prevents KASAN from detecting those cases in which it was
in fact needed.

KASAN_STACK is currently implied by KASAN on gcc, but could be made a
user selectable option if we want to allow combining (non-stack) KASAN
with GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF.

Note that it would be possible to specifically address the files that
print the warning, but presumably the overall stack usage is still
significantly higher than in other configurations, so this would not
address the full problem.

I could not test this with CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL, which may or may not
suffer from a similar problem.

config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
bool
help
While the kernel is built with warnings enabled for any missed
stack variable initializations, this warning is silenced for
anything passed by reference to another function, under the
occasionally misguided assumption that the function will do
the initialization. As this regularly leads to exploitable
flaws, this plugin is available to identify and zero-initialize
such variables, depending on the chosen level of coverage.
This plugin was originally ported from grsecurity/PaX. More

default INIT_STACK_ALL if COMPILE_TEST && CC_HAS_AUTO_VAR_INIT
default INIT_STACK_NONE
help
This option enables initialization of stack variables at
function entry time. This has the possibility to have the
greatest coverage (since all functions can have their
variables initialized), but the performance impact depends
on the function calling complexity of a given workload's
syscalls.
This chooses the level of coverage over classes of potentially
uninitialized variables. The selected class will be
initialized before use in a function.
config INIT_STACK_NONE
bool "no automatic initialization (weakest)"
help
Disable automatic stack variable initialization.
This leaves the kernel vulnerable to the standard
classes of uninitialized stack variable exploits
and information exposures.

Zero-initialize any structures on the stack containing
a __user attribute. This can prevent some classes of
uninitialized stack variable exploits and information
exposures, like CVE-2013-2141:

config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF
bool "zero-init structs passed by reference (strong)"
depends on GCC_PLUGINS

select GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
help
Zero-initialize any structures on the stack that may
be passed by reference and had not already been
explicitly initialized. This can prevent most classes
of uninitialized stack variable exploits and information
exposures, like CVE-2017-1000410:
https://git.kernel.org/linus/06e7e776ca4d3654
As a side-effect, this keeps a lot of variables on the
stack that can otherwise be optimized out, so combining
this with CONFIG_KASAN_STACK can lead to a stack overflow
and is disallowed.
config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL
bool "zero-init anything passed by reference (very strong)"
depends on GCC_PLUGINS
depends on !(KASAN && KASAN_STACK=1)
select GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
help
Zero-initialize any stack variables that may be passed
by reference and had not already been explicitly
initialized. This is intended to eliminate all classes
of uninitialized stack variable exploits and information
exposures.
config INIT_STACK_ALL
bool "0xAA-init everything on the stack (strongest)"
depends on CC_HAS_AUTO_VAR_INIT
help
Initializes everything on the stack with a 0xAA
pattern. This is intended to eliminate all classes
of uninitialized stack variable exploits and information
exposures, even variables that were warned to have been
left uninitialized.

config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_VERBOSE
bool "Report forcefully initialized variables"
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
depends on !COMPILE_TEST # too noisy
help
This option will cause a warning to be printed each time the
structleak plugin finds a variable it thinks needs to be
initialized. Since not all existing initializers are detected
by the plugin, this can produce false positive warnings.
config GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK
bool "Poison kernel stack before returning from syscalls"
depends on GCC_PLUGINS
depends on HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK
help
This option makes the kernel erase the kernel stack before
returning from system calls. This has the effect of leaving
the stack initialized to the poison value, which both reduces
the lifetime of any sensitive stack contents and reduces
potential for uninitialized stack variable exploits or information
exposures (it does not cover functions reaching the same stack
depth as prior functions during the same syscall). This blocks
most uninitialized stack variable attacks, with the performance
impact being driven by the depth of the stack usage, rather than
the function calling complexity.
The performance impact on a single CPU system kernel compilation
sees a 1% slowdown, other systems and workloads may vary and you
are advised to test this feature on your expected workload before
deploying it.
This plugin was ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at:

config STACKLEAK_TRACK_MIN_SIZE
int "Minimum stack frame size of functions tracked by STACKLEAK"
default 100
range 0 4096
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK
help
The STACKLEAK gcc plugin instruments the kernel code for tracking
the lowest border of the kernel stack (and for some other purposes).
It inserts the stackleak_track_stack() call for the functions with
a stack frame size greater than or equal to this parameter.
If unsure, leave the default value 100.
config STACKLEAK_METRICS
bool "Show STACKLEAK metrics in the /proc file system"
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK
depends on PROC_FS
help
If this is set, STACKLEAK metrics for every task are available in
the /proc file system. In particular, /proc/<pid>/stack_depth
shows the maximum kernel stack consumption for the current and
previous syscalls. Although this information is not precise, it
can be useful for estimating the STACKLEAK performance impact for
your workloads.
config STACKLEAK_RUNTIME_DISABLE
bool "Allow runtime disabling of kernel stack erasing"
depends on GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK
help
This option provides 'stack_erasing' sysctl, which can be used in
runtime to control kernel stack erasing for kernels built with
CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK.
