2018-08-10lib/ubsan: remove null-pointer checksAndrey Ryabinin
With gcc-8 fsanitize=null become very noisy. GCC started to complain about things like &a->b, where 'a' is NULL pointer. There is no NULL dereference, we just calculate address to struct member. It's technically undefined behavior so UBSAN is correct to report it. But as long as there is no real NULL-dereference, I think, we should be fine. -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks compiler flag should protect us from any consequences. So let's just no use -fsanitize=null as it's not useful for us. If there is a real NULL-deref we will see crash. Even if userspace mapped something at NULL (root can do this), with things like SMAP should catch the issue.

2018-02-06lib/ubsan: remove returns-nonnull-attribute checksAndrey Ryabinin
Similarly to type mismatch checks, new GCC 8.x and Clang also changed for ABI for returns_nonnull checks. While we can update our code to conform the new ABI it's more reasonable to just remove it. Because it's just dead code, we don't have any single user of returns_nonnull attribute in the whole kernel. And AFAIU the advantage that this attribute could bring would be mitigated by -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks cflag that we use to build the kernel. So it's unlikely we will have a lot of returns_nonnull attribute in future. So let's just remove the code, it has no use.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2016-11-11Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning for "make W=1"Arnd Bergmann
Traditionally, we have always had warnings about uninitialized variables enabled, as this is part of -Wall, and generally a good idea [1], but it also always produced false positives, mainly because this is a variation of the halting problem and provably impossible to get right in all cases [2]. Various people have identified cases that are particularly bad for false positives, and in commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized when building with -Os"), I turned off the warning for any build that was done with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. This drastically reduced the number of false positive warnings in the default build but unfortunately had the side effect of turning the warning off completely in 'allmodconfig' builds, which in turn led to a lot of warnings (both actual bugs, and remaining false positives) to go in unnoticed. With commit 877417e6ffb9 ("Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE definition") enabled the warning again for allmodconfig builds in v4.7 and in v4.8-rc1, I had finally managed to address all warnings I get in an ARM allmodconfig build and most other maybe-uninitialized warnings for ARM randconfig builds. However, commit 6e8d666e9253 ("Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning globally") was merged at the same time and disabled it completely for all configurations, because of false-positive warnings on x86 that I had not addressed until then. This caused a lot of actual bugs to get merged into mainline, and I sent several dozen patches for these during the v4.9 development cycle. Most of these are actual bugs, some are for correct code that is safe because it is only called under external constraints that make it impossible to run into the case that gcc sees, and in a few cases gcc is just stupid and finds something that can obviously never happen. I have now done a few thousand randconfig builds on x86 and collected all patches that I needed to address every single warning I got (I can provide the combined patch for the other warnings if anyone is interested), so I hope we can get the warning back and let people catch the actual bugs earlier. This reverts the change to disable the warning completely and for now brings it back at the "make W=1" level, so we can get it merged into mainline without introducing false positives. A follow-up patch enables it on all levels unless some configuration option turns it off because of false-positives.

2016-07-27Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning globallyLinus Torvalds
Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because it generates a lot of false positives. But some had not, and it was still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example. Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough) that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized. The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning that causes more problems than the warning can solve. If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to re-enable this warning. But as is, we're better off without it, and I want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

2016-03-22ubsan: fix tree-wide -Wmaybe-uninitialized false positivesAndrey Ryabinin
-fsanitize=* options makes GCC less smart than usual and increase number of 'maybe-uninitialized' false-positives. So this patch does two things: * Add -Wno-maybe-uninitialized to CFLAGS_UBSAN which will disable all such warnings for instrumented files. * Remove CONFIG_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL from all[yes|mod]config builds. So the all[yes|mod]config build goes without -fsanitize=* and still with -Wmaybe-uninitialized.

2016-01-20UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checkerAndrey Ryabinin
UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior (UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected) __ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message. So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements ubsan handlers printing errors. GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined option and its suboptions). However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2]. Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.
