fortify: use if_changed_dep to record header dependency in *.cmd files
After building with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, many .*.d files are left
in lib/test_fortify/ because the compiler outputs header dependencies
into *.d without fixdep being invoked.
When compiling C files, if_changed_dep should be used so that the
auto-generated header dependencies are recorded in .*.cmd files.
Currently, if_changed is incorrectly used, and only two headers are
hard-coded in lib/Makefile.
In the previous patch version, the kbuild test robot detected new errors
on GCC 7.
GCC 7 or older does not produce test.d with the following test code:
$ echo 'void b(void) __attribute__((__error__(""))); void a(void) { b(); }' |
gcc -Wp,-MMD,test.d -c -o /dev/null -x c -
Perhaps, this was a bug that existed in older GCC versions.
Skip the tests for GCC<=7 for now, as this will be eventually solved
when we bump the minimal supported GCC version.

fortify: refactor test_fortify Makefile to fix some build problems
There are some issues in the test_fortify Makefile code.
Problem 1: cc-disable-warning invokes compiler dozens of times
To see how many times the cc-disable-warning is evaluated, change
this code:
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source)
to:
$(call cc-disable-warning,$(shell touch /tmp/fortify-$$$$)fortify-source)
Then, build the kernel with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y. You will see a
large number of '/tmp/fortify-<PID>' files created:
$ ls -1 /tmp/fortify-* | wc
80 80 1600
This means the compiler was invoked 80 times just for checking the
-Wno-fortify-source flag support.
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source) should be added to a simple
variable instead of a recursive variable.
Problem 2: do not recompile string.o when the test code is updated
The test cases are independent of the kernel. However, when the test
code is updated, $(obj)/string.o is rebuilt and vmlinux is relinked
due to this dependency:
$(obj)/string.o: $(obj)/$(TEST_FORTIFY_LOG)
always-y is suitable for building the log files.
Problem 3: redundant code
clean-files += $(addsuffix .o, $(TEST_FORTIFY_LOGS))
... is unneeded because the top Makefile globally cleans *.o files.
This commit fixes these issues and makes the code readable.

With all the users of strlcpy() removed[1] from the kernel, remove the API, self-tests, and other references. Leave mentions in Documentation (about its deprecation), and in checkpatch.pl (to help migrate host-only tools/ usage). Long live strscpy().

fortify: Detect struct member overflows in memcpy() at compile-time
memcpy() is dead; long live memcpy()
tl;dr: In order to eliminate a large class of common buffer overflow
flaws that continue to persist in the kernel, have memcpy() (under
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE) perform bounds checking of the destination struct
member when they have a known size. This would have caught all of the
memcpy()-related buffer write overflow flaws identified in at least the
last three years.
Background and analysis:
While stack-based buffer overflow flaws are largely mitigated by stack
canaries (and similar) features, heap-based buffer overflow flaws continue
to regularly appear in the kernel. Many classes of heap buffer overflows
are mitigated by FORTIFY_SOURCE when using the strcpy() family of
functions, but a significant number remain exposed through the memcpy()
family of functions.
At its core, FORTIFY_SOURCE uses the compiler's __builtin_object_size()
internal[0] to determine the available size at a target address based on
the compile-time known structure layout details. It operates in two
modes: outer bounds (0) and inner bounds (1). In mode 0, the size of the
enclosing structure is used. In mode 1, the size of the specific field
is used. For example:
struct object {
u16 scalar1; /* 2 bytes */
char array[6]; /* 6 bytes */
u64 scalar2; /* 8 bytes */
u32 scalar3; /* 4 bytes */
u32 scalar4; /* 4 bytes */
} instance;
__builtin_object_size(instance.array, 0) == 22, since the remaining size
of the enclosing structure starting from "array" is 22 bytes (6 + 8 +
4 + 4).
__builtin_object_size(instance.array, 1) == 6, since the remaining size
of the specific field "array" is 6 bytes.
The initial implementation of FORTIFY_SOURCE used mode 0 because there
were many cases of both strcpy() and memcpy() functions being used to
write (or read) across multiple fields in a structure. For example,
it would catch this, which is writing 2 bytes beyond the end of
"instance":
memcpy(&instance.array, data, 25);
While this didn't protect against overwriting adjacent fields in a given
structure, it would at least stop overflows from reaching beyond the
end of the structure into neighboring memory, and provided a meaningful
mitigation of a subset of buffer overflow flaws. However, many desirable
targets remain within the enclosing structure (for example function
pointers).
As it happened, there were very few cases of strcpy() family functions
intentionally writing beyond the end of a string buffer. Once all known
cases were removed from the kernel, the strcpy() family was tightened[1]
to use mode 1, providing greater mitigation coverage.
What remains is switching memcpy() to mode 1 as well, but making the
switch is much more difficult because of how frustrating it can be to
find existing "normal" uses of memcpy() that expect to write (or read)
across multiple fields. The root cause of the problem is that the C
language lacks a common pattern to indicate the intent of an author's
use of memcpy(), and is further complicated by the available compile-time
and run-time mitigation behaviors.
The FORTIFY_SOURCE mitigation comes in two halves: the compile-time half,
when both the buffer size _and_ the length of the copy is known, and the
run-time half, when only the buffer size is known. If neither size is
known, there is no bounds checking possible. At compile-time when the
compiler sees that a length will always exceed a known buffer size,
a warning can be deterministically emitted. For the run-time half,
the length is tested against the known size of the buffer, and the
overflowing operation is detected. (The performance overhead for these
tests is virtually zero.)
It is relatively easy to find compile-time false-positives since a warning
is always generated. Fixing the false positives, however, can be very
time-consuming as there are hundreds of instances. While it's possible
some over-read conditions could lead to kernel memory exposures, the bulk
of the risk comes from the run-time flaws where the length of a write
may end up being attacker-controlled and lead to an overflow.
Many of the compile-time false-positives take a form similar to this:
memcpy(&instance.scalar2, data, sizeof(instance.scalar2) +
sizeof(instance.scalar3));
and the run-time ones are similar, but lack a constant expression for the
size of the copy:
memcpy(instance.array, data, length);
The former is meant to cover multiple fields (though its style has been
frowned upon more recently), but has been technically legal. Both lack
any expressivity in the C language about the author's _intent_ in a way
that a compiler can check when the length isn't known at compile time.
A comment doesn't work well because what's needed is something a compiler
can directly reason about. Is a given memcpy() call expected to overflow
into neighbors? Is it not? By using the new struct_group() macro, this
intent can be much more easily encoded.
It is not as easy to find the run-time false-positives since the code path
to exercise a seemingly out-of-bounds condition that is actually expected
may not be trivially reachable. Tightening the restrictions to block an
operation for a false positive will either potentially create a greater
flaw (if a copy is truncated by the mitigation), or destabilize the kernel
(e.g. with a BUG()), making things completely useless for the end user.
As a result, tightening the memcpy() restriction (when there is a
reasonable level of uncertainty of the number of false positives), needs
to first WARN() with no truncation. (Though any sufficiently paranoid
end-user can always opt to set the panic_on_warn=1 sysctl.) Once enough
development time has passed, the mitigation can be further intensified.
(Note that this patch is only the compile-time checking step, which is
a prerequisite to doing run-time checking, which will come in future
patches.)
Given the potential frustrations of weeding out all the false positives
when tightening the run-time checks, it is reasonable to wonder if these
changes would actually add meaningful protection. Looking at just the
last three years, there are 23 identified flaws with a CVE that mention
"buffer overflow", and 11 are memcpy()-related buffer overflows.
(For the remaining 12: 7 are array index overflows that would be
mitigated by systems built with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y: CVE-2019-0145,
CVE-2019-14835, CVE-2019-14896, CVE-2019-14897, CVE-2019-14901,
CVE-2019-17666, CVE-2021-28952. 2 are miscalculated allocation
sizes which could be mitigated with memory tagging: CVE-2019-16746,
CVE-2019-2181. 1 is an iovec buffer bug maybe mitigated by memory tagging:
CVE-2020-10742. 1 is a type confusion bug mitigated by stack canaries:
CVE-2020-10942. 1 is a string handling logic bug with no mitigation I'm
aware of: CVE-2021-28972.)
At my last count on an x86_64 allmodconfig build, there are 35,294
calls to memcpy(). With callers instrumented to report all places
where the buffer size is known but the length remains unknown (i.e. a
run-time bounds check is added), we can count how many new run-time
bounds checks are added when the destination and source arguments of
memcpy() are changed to use "mode 1" bounds checking: 1,276. This means
for the future run-time checking, there is a worst-case upper bounds
of 3.6% false positives to fix. In addition, there were around 150 new
compile-time warnings to evaluate and fix (which have now been fixed).
With this instrumentation it's also possible to compare the places where
the known 11 memcpy() flaw overflows manifested against the resulting
list of potential new run-time bounds checks, as a measure of potential
efficacy of the tightened mitigation. Much to my surprise, horror, and
delight, all 11 flaws would have been detected by the newly added run-time
bounds checks, making this a distinctly clear mitigation improvement: 100%
coverage for known memcpy() flaws, with a possible 2 orders of magnitude
gain in coverage over existing but undiscovered run-time dynamic length
flaws (i.e. 1265 newly covered sites in addition to the 11 known), against
only <4% of all memcpy() callers maybe gaining a false positive run-time
check, with only about 150 new compile-time instances needing evaluation.
Specifically these would have been mitigated:

To accelerate the review of potential run-time false positives, it's
also worth noting that it is possible to partially automate checking
by examining the memcpy() buffer argument to check for the destination
struct member having a neighboring array member. It is reasonable to
expect that the vast majority of run-time false positives would look like
the already evaluated and fixed compile-time false positives, where the
most common pattern is neighboring arrays. (And, FWIW, many of the
compile-time fixes were actual bugs, so it is reasonable to assume we'll
have similar cases of actual bugs getting fixed for run-time checks.)
Implementation:
Tighten the memcpy() destination buffer size checking to use the actual
("mode 1") target buffer size as the bounds check instead of their
enclosing structure's ("mode 0") size. Use a common inline for memcpy()
(and memmove() in a following patch), since all the tests are the
same. All new cross-field memcpy() uses must use the struct_group() macro
or similar to target a specific range of fields, so that FORTIFY_SOURCE
can reason about the size and safety of the copy.
For now, cross-member "mode 1" _read_ detection at compile-time will be
limited to W=1 builds, since it is, unfortunately, very common. As the
priority is solving write overflows, read overflows will be part of a
future phase (and can be fixed in parallel, for anyone wanting to look
at W=1 build output).
For run-time, the "mode 0" size checking and mitigation is left unchanged,
with "mode 1" to be added in stages. In this patch, no new run-time
checks are added. Future patches will first bounds-check writes,
and only perform a WARN() for now. This way any missed run-time false
positives can be flushed out over the coming several development cycles,
but system builders who have tested their workloads to be WARN()-free
can enable the panic_on_warn=1 sysctl to immediately gain a mitigation
against this class of buffer overflows. Once that is under way, run-time
bounds-checking of reads can be similarly enabled.
Related classes of flaws that will remain unmitigated:
- memcpy() with flexible array structures, as the compiler does not
currently have visibility into the size of the trailing flexible
array. These can be fixed in the future by refactoring such cases
to use a new set of flexible array structure helpers to perform the
common serialization/deserialization code patterns doing allocation
and/or copying.
- memcpy() with raw pointers (e.g. void *, char *, etc), or otherwise
having their buffer size unknown at compile time, have no good
mitigation beyond memory tagging (and even that would only protect
against inter-object overflow, not intra-object neighboring field
overflows), or refactoring. Some kind of "fat pointer" solution is
likely needed to gain proper size-of-buffer awareness. (e.g. see
struct membuf)
- type confusion where a higher level type's allocation size does
not match the resulting cast type eventually passed to a deeper
memcpy() call where the compiler cannot see the true type. In
theory, greater static analysis could catch these, and the use
of -Warray-bounds will help find some of these.

fortify: Add compile-time FORTIFY_SOURCE tests
While the run-time testing of FORTIFY_SOURCE is already present in LKDTM, there is no testing of the expected compile-time detections. In preparation for correctly supporting FORTIFY_SOURCE under Clang, adding additional FORTIFY_SOURCE defenses, and making sure FORTIFY_SOURCE doesn't silently regress with GCC, introduce a build-time test suite that checks each expected compile-time failure condition. As this is relatively backwards from standard build rules in the sense that a successful test is actually a compile _failure_, create a wrapper script to check for the correct errors, and wire it up as a dummy dependency to lib/string.o, collecting the results into a log file artifact.
