2019-10-17printf: add support for printing symbolic error namesRasmus Villemoes
It has been suggested several times to extend vsnprintf() to be able to convert the numeric value of ENOSPC to print "ENOSPC". This implements that as a %p extension: With %pe, one can do if (IS_ERR(foo)) { pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %pe\n", foo); return PTR_ERR(foo); } instead of what is seen in quite a few places in the kernel: if (IS_ERR(foo)) { pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(foo)); return PTR_ERR(foo); } If the value passed to %pe is an ERR_PTR, but the library function errname() added here doesn't know about the value, the value is simply printed in decimal. If the value passed to %pe is not an ERR_PTR, we treat it as an ordinary %p and thus print the hashed value (passing non-ERR_PTR values to %pe indicates a bug in the caller, but we can't do much about that). With my embedded hat on, and because it's not very invasive to do, I've made it possible to remove this. The errname() function and associated lookup tables take up about 3K. For most, that's probably quite acceptable and a price worth paying for more readable dmesg (once this starts getting used), while for those that disable printk() it's of very little use - I don't see a procfs/sysfs/seq_printf() file reasonably making use of this - and they clearly want to squeeze vmlinux as much as possible. Hence the default y if PRINTK. The symbols to include have been found by massaging the output of find arch include -iname 'errno*.h' | xargs grep -E 'define\s*E' In the cases where some common aliasing exists (e.g. EAGAIN=EWOULDBLOCK on all platforms, EDEADLOCK=EDEADLK on most), I've moved the more popular one (in terms of 'git grep -w Efoo | wc) to the bottom so that one takes precedence.

2019-04-26vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing invalid pointersPetr Mladek
We already prevent crash when dereferencing some obviously broken pointers. But the handling is not consistent. Sometimes we print "(null)" only for pure NULL pointer, sometimes for pointers in the first page and sometimes also for pointers in the last page (error codes). Note that printk() call this code under logbuf_lock. Any recursive printks are redirected to the printk_safe implementation and the messages are stored into per-CPU buffers. These buffers might be eventually flushed in printk_safe_flush_on_panic() but it is not guaranteed. This patch adds a check using probe_kernel_read(). It is not a full-proof test. But it should help to see the error message in 99% situations where the kernel would silently crash otherwise. Also it makes the error handling unified for "%s" and the many %p* specifiers that need to read the data from a given address. We print: + (null) when accessing data on pure pure NULL address + (efault) when accessing data on an invalid address It does not affect the %p* specifiers that just print the given address in some form, namely %pF, %pf, %pS, %ps, %pB, %pK, %px, and plain %p. Note that we print (efault) from security reasons. In fact, the real address can be seen only by %px or eventually %pK.

2019-04-26vsprintf: Consolidate handling of unknown pointer specifiersPetr Mladek
There are few printk formats that make sense only with two or more specifiers. Also some specifiers make sense only when a kernel feature is enabled. The handling of unknown specifiers is inconsistent and not helpful. Using WARN() looks like an overkill for this type of error. pr_warn() is not good either. It would by handled via printk_safe buffer and it might be hard to match it with the problematic string. A reasonable compromise seems to be writing the unknown format specifier into the original string with a question mark, for example (%pC?). It should be self-explaining enough. Note that it is in brackets to follow the (null) style. Note that it introduces a warning about that test_hashed() function is unused. It is going to be used again by a later patch.

If the test_printf module is loaded before the crng is initialized, the plain 'p' tests will fail because the printed address will not be hashed and the buffer will contain "(____ptrval____)" or "(ptrval)" instead (64-bit vs 32-bit). Since we cannot wait for the crng to be initialized for an undefined time, both plain 'p' tests now accept the strings "(____ptrval____)" or "(ptrval)" as a valid result and print a warning message.

2017-11-29printk: hash addresses printed with %pTobin C. Harding
Currently there exist approximately 14 000 places in the kernel where addresses are being printed using an unadorned %p. This potentially leaks sensitive information regarding the Kernel layout in memory. Many of these calls are stale, instead of fixing every call lets hash the address by default before printing. This will of course break some users, forcing code printing needed addresses to be updated. Code that _really_ needs the address will soon be able to use the new printk specifier %px to print the address. For what it's worth, usage of unadorned %p can be broken down as follows (thanks to Joe Perches). $ git grep -E '%p[^A-Za-z0-9]' | cut -f1 -d"/" | sort | uniq -c 1084 arch 20 block 10 crypto 32 Documentation 8121 drivers 1221 fs 143 include 101 kernel 69 lib 100 mm 1510 net 40 samples 7 scripts 11 security 166 sound 152 tools 2 virt Add function ptr_to_id() to map an address to a 32 bit unique identifier.

2016-03-15mm, printk: introduce new format string for flagsVlastimil Babka
In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export. To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp), gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified. It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical path is negligible.

2015-11-06test_printf: test printf family at runtimeRasmus Villemoes
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
