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 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.

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

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

If unsure, leave the default value 100.
