* lib/string: Use strchr() in strpbrk()Andy Shevchenko2023-01-271-6/+4

* string: Rewrite and add more kern-doc for the str*() functionsKees Cook2022-10-281-82/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While there were varying degrees of kern-doc for various str*()-family functions, many needed updating and clarification, or to just be entirely written. Update (and relocate) existing kern-doc and add missing functions, sadly shaking my head at how many times I have written "Do not use this function". Include the results in the core kernel API doc.

* lib/string: Move helper functions out of string.cKees Cook2021-09-251-204/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The core functions of string.c are those that may be implemented by per-architecture functions, or overloaded by FORTIFY_SOURCE. As a result, it needs to be built with __NO_FORTIFY. Without this, macros will collide with function declarations. This was accidentally working due to -ffreestanding (on some architectures). Make this deterministic by explicitly setting __NO_FORTIFY and move all the helper functions into string_helpers.c so that they gain the fortification coverage they had been missing.

* string: improve default out-of-line memcmp() implementationLinus Torvalds2021-08-301-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This just does the "if the architecture does efficient unaligned handling, start the memcmp using 'unsigned long' accesses", since Nikolay Borisov found a load that cares. This is basically the minimal patch, and limited to architectures that are known to not have slow unaligned handling. We've had the stupid byte-at-a-time version forever, and nobody has ever even noticed before, so let's keep the fix minimal. A potential further improvement would be to align one of the sources in order to at least minimize unaligned cases, but the only real case of bigger memcmp() users seems to be the FIDEDUPERANGE ioctl(). As David Sterba says, the dedupe ioctl is typically called on ranges spanning many pages so the common case will all be page-aligned anyway. All the relevant architectures select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, so I'm not going to worry about the combination of a very rare use-case and a rare architecture until somebody actually hits it. Particularly since Nikolay also tested the more complex patch with extra alignment handling code, and it only added overhead.

* lib/string.c: implement stpcpyNick Desaulniers2020-09-261-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | LLVM implemented a recent "libcall optimization" that lowers calls to `sprintf(dest, "%s", str)` where the return value is used to `stpcpy(dest, str) - dest`. This generally avoids the machinery involved in parsing format strings. `stpcpy` is just like `strcpy` except it returns the pointer to the new tail of `dest`. This optimization was introduced into clang-12. Implement this so that we don't observe linkage failures due to missing symbol definitions for `stpcpy`. Similar to last year's fire drill with: commit 5f074f3e192f ("lib/string.c: implement a basic bcmp") The kernel is somewhere between a "freestanding" environment (no full libc) and "hosted" environment (many symbols from libc exist with the same type, function signature, and semantics). As Peter Anvin notes, there's not really a great way to inform the compiler that you're targeting a freestanding environment but would like to opt-in to some libcall optimizations (see pr/47280 below), rather than opt-out. Arvind notes, -fno-builtin-* behaves slightly differently between GCC and Clang, and Clang is missing many __builtin_* definitions, which I consider a bug in Clang and am working on fixing. Masahiro summarizes the subtle distinction between compilers justly: To prevent transformation from foo() into bar(), there are two ways in Clang to do that; -fno-builtin-foo, and -fno-builtin-bar. There is only one in GCC; -fno-buitin-foo. (Any difference in that behavior in Clang is likely a bug from a missing __builtin_* definition.) Masahiro also notes: We want to disable optimization from foo() to bar(), but we may still benefit from the optimization from foo() into something else. If GCC implements the same transform, we would run into a problem because it is not -fno-builtin-bar, but -fno-builtin-foo that disables that optimization. In this regard, -fno-builtin-foo would be more future-proof than -fno-built-bar, but -fno-builtin-foo is still potentially overkill. We may want to prevent calls from foo() being optimized into calls to bar(), but we still may want other optimization on calls to foo(). It seems that compilers today don't quite provide the fine grain control over which libcall optimizations pseudo-freestanding environments would prefer. Finally, Kees notes that this interface is unsafe, so we should not encourage its use. As such, I've removed the declaration from any header, but it still needs to be exported to avoid linkage errors in modules.

* lib/string.c: update match_string() doc-strings with correct behaviorAlexandru Ardelean2020-02-211-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were a few attempts at changing behavior of the match_string() helpers (i.e. 'match_string()' & 'sysfs_match_string()'), to change & extend the behavior according to the doc-string. But the simplest approach is to just fix the doc-strings. The current behavior is fine as-is, and some bugs were introduced trying to fix it. As for extending the behavior, new helpers can always be introduced if needed. The match_string() helpers behave more like 'strncmp()' in the sense that they go up to n elements or until the first NULL element in the array of strings. This change updates the doc-strings with this info.

* lib/string: add strnchrnul()Yury Norov2020-02-041-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "lib: rework bitmap_parse", v5. Similarl to the recently revisited bitmap_parselist(), bitmap_parse() is ineffective and overcomplicated. This series reworks it, aligns its interface with bitmap_parselist() and makes it simpler to use. The series also adds a test for the function and fixes usage of it in cpumask_parse() according to the new design - drops the calculating of length of an input string. bitmap_parse() takes the array of numbers to be put into the map in the BE order which is reversed to the natural LE order for bitmaps. For example, to construct bitmap containing a bit on the position 42, we have to put a line '400,0'. Current implementation reads chunk one by one from the beginning ('400' before '0') and makes bitmap shift after each successful parse. It makes the complexity of the whole process as O(n^2). We can do it in reverse direction ('0' before '400') and avoid shifting, but it requires reverse parsing helpers. This patch (of 7): New function works like strchrnul() with a length limited string.

* lib/string.c: allow searching for NUL with strnchrPeter Rosin2019-07-161-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "lib/string: search for NUL with strchr/strnchr". I noticed an inconsistency where strchr and strnchr do not behave the same with respect to the trailing NUL. strchr is standardised and the kernel function conforms, and the kernel relies on the behavior. So, naturally strchr stays as-is and strnchr is what I change. While writing a few tests to verify that my new strnchr loop was sane, I noticed that the tests for memset16/32/64 had a problem. Since it's all about the lib/string.c file I made a short series of it all... This patch (of 3): strchr considers the terminating NUL to be part of the string, and NUL can thus be searched for with that function. For consistency, do the same with strnchr.

* lib/string.c: implement a basic bcmpNick Desaulniers2019-04-051-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recent optimization in Clang (r355672) lowers comparisons of the return value of memcmp against zero to comparisons of the return value of bcmp against zero. This helps some platforms that implement bcmp more efficiently than memcmp. glibc simply aliases bcmp to memcmp, but an optimized implementation is in the works. This results in linkage failures for all targets with Clang due to the undefined symbol. For now, just implement bcmp as a tailcail to memcmp to unbreak the build. This routine can be further optimized in the future. Other ideas discussed: * A weak alias was discussed, but breaks for architectures that define their own implementations of memcmp since aliases to declarations are not permitted (only definitions). Arch-specific memcmp implementations typically declare memcmp in C headers, but implement them in assembly. * -ffreestanding also is used sporadically throughout the kernel. * -fno-builtin-bcmp doesn't work when doing LTO.

* lib/strscpy: Shut up KASAN false-positives in strscpy()Andrey Ryabinin2018-02-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | strscpy() performs the word-at-a-time optimistic reads. So it may may access the memory past the end of the object, which is perfectly fine since strscpy() doesn't use that (past-the-end) data and makes sure the optimistic read won't cross a page boundary. Use new read_word_at_a_time() to shut up the KASAN. Note that this potentially could hide some bugs. In example bellow, stscpy() will copy more than we should (1-3 extra uninitialized bytes): char dst[8]; char *src; src = kmalloc(5, GFP_KERNEL); memset(src, 0xff, 5); strscpy(dst, src, 8); Signed-off-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* lib/string.c: add multibyte memset functionsMatthew Wilcox2017-09-081-0/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "Multibyte memset variations", v4. A relatively common idiom we're missing is a function to fill an area of memory with a pattern which is larger than a single byte. I first noticed this with a zram patch which wanted to fill a page with an 'unsigned long' value. There turn out to be quite a few places in the kernel which can benefit from using an optimised function rather than a loop; sometimes text size, sometimes speed, and sometimes both. The optimised PowerPC version (not included here) improves performance by about 30% on POWER8 on just the raw memset_l(). Most of the extra lines of code come from the three testcases I added. This patch (of 8): memset16(), memset32() and memset64() are like memset(), but allow the caller to fill the destination with a value larger than a single byte. memset_l() and memset_p() allow the caller to use unsigned long and pointer values respectively.

* include/linux/string.h: add the option of fortified string.h functionsDaniel Micay2017-07-121-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for compiling with a rough equivalent to the glibc _FORTIFY_SOURCE=1 feature, providing compile-time and runtime buffer overflow checks for string.h functions when the compiler determines the size of the source or destination buffer at compile-time. Unlike glibc, it covers buffer reads in addition to writes. GNU C __builtin_*_chk intrinsics are avoided because they would force a much more complex implementation. They aren't designed to detect read overflows and offer no real benefit when using an implementation based on inline checks. Inline checks don't add up to much code size and allow full use of the regular string intrinsics while avoiding the need for a bunch of _chk functions and per-arch assembly to avoid wrapper overhead. This detects various overflows at compile-time in various drivers and some non-x86 core kernel code. There will likely be issues caught in regular use at runtime too. Future improvements left out of initial implementation for simplicity, as it's all quite optional and can be done incrementally: * Some of the fortified string functions (strncpy, strcat), don't yet place a limit on reads from the source based on __builtin_object_size of the source buffer. * Extending coverage to more string functions like strlcat. * It should be possible to optionally use __builtin_object_size(x, 1) for some functions (C strings) to detect intra-object overflows (like glibc's _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), but for now this takes the conservative approach to avoid likely compatibility issues. * The compile-time checks should be made available via a separate config option which can be enabled by default (or always enabled) once enough time has passed to get the issues it catches fixed. Kees said: "This is great to have. While it was out-of-tree code, it would have blocked at least CVE-2016-3858 from being exploitable (improper size argument to strlcpy()).

(A memset() after the strscpy() can be used if this behavior is desired.) - The implementation should be reasonably performant on all platforms since it uses the asm/word-at-a-time.h API rather than simple byte copy.

* lib/string.c: introduce strreplace()Rasmus Villemoes2015-06-251-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Strings are sometimes sanitized by replacing a certain character (often '/') by another (often '!'). In a few places, this is done the same way Schlemiel the Painter would do it. Others are slightly smarter but still do multiple strchr() calls. Introduce strreplace() to do this using a single function call and a single pass over the string. One would expect the return value to be one of three things: void, s, or the number of replacements made. I chose the fourth, returning a pointer to the end of the string. This is more likely to be useful (for example allowing the caller to avoid a strlen call).

While using barrier() works well for the case of gcc, recent efforts from LLVMLinux people suggest to use llvm as an alternative to gcc, and there, Stephan found in a simple stand-alone user space example that llvm could nevertheless optimize and thus elimitate the memset(). A similar issue has been observed in the referenced llvm bug report, which is regarded as not-a-bug. Based on some experiments, icc is a bit special on its own, while it doesn't seem to eliminate the memset(), it could do so with an own implementation, and then result in similar findings as with llvm. The fix in this patch now works for all three compilers (also tested with more aggressive optimization levels). Arguably, in the current kernel tree it's more of a theoretical issue, but imho, it's better to be pedantic about it. It's clearly visible with gcc/llvm though, with the below code: if we would have used barrier() only here, llvm would have omitted clearing, not so with barrier_data() variant: static inline void memzero_explicit(void *s, size_t count) { memset(s, 0, count); barrier_data(s); } int main(void) { char buff[20]; memzero_explicit(buff, sizeof(buff)); return 0; } $ gcc -O2 test.c $ gdb a.out (gdb) disassemble main Dump of assembler code for function main: 0x0000000000400400 <+0>: lea -0x28(%rsp),%rax 0x0000000000400405 <+5>: movq $0x0,-0x28(%rsp) 0x000000000040040e <+14>: movq $0x0,-0x20(%rsp) 0x0000000000400417 <+23>: movl $0x0,-0x18(%rsp) 0x000000000040041f <+31>: xor %eax,%eax 0x0000000000400421 <+33>: retq End of assembler dump. $ clang -O2 test.c $ gdb a.out (gdb) disassemble main Dump of assembler code for function main: 0x00000000004004f0 <+0>: xorps %xmm0,%xmm0 0x00000000004004f3 <+3>: movaps %xmm0,-0x18(%rsp) 0x00000000004004f8 <+8>: movl $0x0,-0x8(%rsp) 0x0000000000400500 <+16>: lea -0x18(%rsp),%rax 0x0000000000400505 <+21>: xor %eax,%eax 0x0000000000400507 <+23>: retq End of assembler dump. As gcc, clang, but also icc defines __GNUC__, it's sufficient to define this in compiler-gcc.h only to be picked up. For a fallback or otherwise unsupported compiler, we define it as a barrier. Similarly, for ecc which does not support gcc inline asm.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch made strnicmp into a wrapper for strncasecmp. This patch makes all in-tree users of strnicmp call strncasecmp directly, while still making sure that the strnicmp symbol can be used by out-of-tree modules.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lib/string.c contains two functions, strnicmp and strncasecmp, which do roughly the same thing, namely compare two strings case-insensitively up to a given bound. They have slightly different implementations, but the only important difference is that strncasecmp doesn't handle len==0 appropriately; it effectively becomes strcasecmp in that case. strnicmp correctly says that two strings are always equal in their first 0 characters. strncasecmp is the POSIX name for this functionality. So rename the non-broken function to the standard name. To minimize the impact on the rest of the kernel (and since both are exported to modules), make strnicmp a wrapper for strncasecmp.

* | Make ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER a real config variableLinus Torvalds2014-09-131-2/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It used to be an ad-hoc hack defined by the x86 version of <asm/bitops.h> that enabled a couple of library routines to know whether an integer multiply is faster than repeated shifts and additions. This just makes it use the real Kconfig system instead, and makes x86 (which was the only architecture that did this) select the option. NOTE! Even for x86, this really is kind of wrong. If we cared, we would probably not enable this for builds optimized for netburst (P4), where shifts-and-adds are generally faster than multiplies. This patch does *not* change that kind of logic, though, it is purely a syntactic change with no code changes. This was triggered by the fact that we have other places that really want to know "do I want to expand multiples by constants by hand or not", particularly the hash generation code.
