Hi,

It would be nice to have some explanation for why these added __force
are useful.

	It would be even more useful if that series would either deal with
the noise for real ("that's what we intend here, that's what we intend there,
here's a primitive for such-and-such kind of cases, here we actually
ought to pass __user pointer instead of unsigned long", etc.) or left it
unmasked.

	As it is, __force says only one thing: "I know the code is doing
the right thing here".  That belongs in primitives, and I do *not* mean the
#define cast_to_ulong(x) ((__force unsigned long)(x))
kind.

	Folks, if you don't want to deal with that - leave the warnings be.
They do carry more information than "someone has slapped __force in that place".

Al, very annoyed by that kind of information-hiding crap...

I'll add this in the next version, thanks!

This patch only adds __force to hide the reports I've looked at and
decided that the code does the right thing. The cases where this is
not the case are handled by the previous patches in the patchset. I'll
this to the patch description as well. Is that OK?

I think as well that we should make explicit the information that
__force is hiding.
A possible solution could be defining some new address spaces and use
them where it is relevant in the kernel. Something like:

# define __compat_ptr __attribute__((noderef, address_space(5)))
# define __tagged_ptr __attribute__((noderef, address_space(6)))

In this way sparse can still identify the casting and trigger a warning.

We could at that point modify sparse to ignore these conversions when a
specific flag is passed (i.e. -Wignore-compat-ptr, -Wignore-tagged-ptr)
to exclude from the generated warnings the ones we have already dealt
with.

What do you think about this approach?

I don't know about you, but personally I've run into "I've looked,
I'm sure it's OK here" -> (a year or so later) "why is it OK, again?
Oh, bugger..." quite a few times.  Some, but not all, hadn't been
OK all along, some used to be but got quietly broken by subsequent
changes by people who had no idea that some property of implementation
was critical for correctness in the place in question, some (even
more embarrassingly) were broken by a patch of my own.

It happens.  "Looked in there, decided that the warning was bogus and
quietly shut it up" has turned out to be a source of trouble down the
road a lot of times.  If you are forcibly removing a warning (not by
reorganizing the logics and annotations, that is - by force-cast, or
something similar to it), leave behind something more useful than
"On $DATE I've decided it was OK" (and even that - only accessible via
git blame/git show).  As a hint for yourself, if nothing else - you
might end up asking yourself the same question a year or two (or twenty,
for that matter) later while looking for likely source of odd breakage
and trying to narrow the search down.

Force-cast conflates a *lot* of situations together - it's pretty much
"fuck off, I know what's going on here, it's OK" and no more than that;
hell, even the warning it removes would've carried more information...

That kind of "these are false positives, let's turn them off to search for
real problems" patches is fine when developing a branch like that; it's
leaving them in for posterity that tends to cause PITA...

I'm not attacking you, BTW - it's really a generic point re force-casts.
There had been some really outrageous cases lately[1] and I think that
this point does need to be made.  Unexplained force-cast is worse than
leaving a warning in.

[1] with, if my reading of the situation is correct,
	newbie asking maintainers if dealing with endianness warnings in
a certain driver would be useful
	newbie getting told (perhaps by maintainers, perhaps by somebody else)
that those were all noise, the driver's correct and the most useful thing to
be done with them would be to make them STFU
	force-cast-laden patch from said newbie doing just that picked by said
maintainers, "cleaning up" the warnings.  And committed with authorship pinned
to the newbie ;-/
Not nice, seeing that the code in driver is *not* correct, despite the high-handed
"shut that noise off, everything's fine there" commit - undoing that "cleanup" and
trying to redo annotations properly starts to converge on absolutely real bugs on
b-e hosts in about 10 minutes.  In PCIe driver, with devices existing as separate
cards, not just something always embedded into x86 or arm motherboard...

I'll be happy to add such warnings to sparse if it is useful to detect
(and correct!) problems. I'm also thinking to other possiblities, like
having some weaker form of __force (maybe simply __force_as (which will
'only' force the address space) or even __force_as(TO, FROM) (with TO
and FROM being a mask of the address space allowed).

However, for the specific situation here, I'm not sure that using
address spaces is the right choice because I suspect that the concept
of tagged pointer is orthogonal to the one of (the usual) address space
(it won't be possible for a pointer to be __tagged_ptr *and* __user).

OTOH, when I see already the tons of warnings for concepts established
since many years (I'm thinking especially at __bitwise, see [1]) I'm a
bit affraid of adding new, more specialized ones that people will
understand even less how/when they need to use them.

I was thinking to address spaces because the information seems easily accessible
in sparse [1], but I am certainly open to any solution that can be semantically
more correct.

Thanks for providing this statistic, it is very interesting. I understand your
concern, but I think that in this case we need a more specialized option not only
to find potential problems but even to provide the right amount of information
to who reads the code. 

A solution could be to let __force_as(TO, FROM) behave like __force and silence
the warning by default, but have an option in sparse to re-enable it 
(i.e. -Wshow-force-as).

    print address space number for explicit cast to ulong
    
    This patch build on top of commit b34880d ("stricter warning
    for explicit cast to ulong") and prints the address space
    number when a "warning: cast removes address space of expression"
    is triggered.
    
    This makes easier to discriminate in between different address
    spaces.
    
    A validation example is provided as well as part of this patch.

Yes, adding a new address space is easy (and doesn't need any modification
to sparse). Here, I think adding a new 'modifier' __tagged (much like
__nocast, __noderef, ...) would be much more appropriate.
I think that at this point, it would be nice to have a clear description
of the problem and what sort of checks are wanted.

That would be, indeed, a simple solution but IMO even more dangerous than
__force itself (since by readingthe code with this annotation  people would 
naturally think it only involves the AS will in fact it would be the same
as __force). I prefer to directly implement a plain __force_as, forcing
only the AS).

I think that the if (Wcast_from_as) is unneeded, the <asn:%d> can be added
even if Wcast_from_as is false. Woukd it be OK for you?

The problem we are trying to address here is to identify when the user pointers
are cast to integer types and to sanitize (when required) the kernel, when this
happens.

The way on which we are trying to address this problem based on what Andrey
proposed in his patch-set is to use the Top Byte Ignore feature (which is a 64 bit
specific feature).

Based on what I said I think that we require 2 'modifiers':
- __compat (or __compat_ptr) used when the kernel is dealing with user compat 
pointers (32 bit, they can not be tagged). It should behave like force
(silence warnings), but having something separate IMO makes more clear the
intention of what we are trying to do.
- __tagged (or __tagged_ptr) used when the kernel is dealing with user normal
pointers (which can be tagged). In this case sparse should still be able to trigger
a warning (that can be disabled by default as I was proposing in my previous email).
When we put a tagged identifier we declare that we analyzed the code impacted by
the conversion and eventually sanitized it. Having the warning still there allows us
or whoever is looking at the code to always go back to the identified issue.

Agreed, even if we can't stop people from overlooking at things, I believe that
we will all benefit if they are clearer.

Yes, it is OK for me (I put it there because I did not know if we wanted to preserve the
original behavior). Feel free to hack my patch if you want to put it on your tree.

OK. Thanks for the explanation.

So, the way I see things from a type checking perspective, is that
'being (potentially) tagged' is a new property of values, othogonal
the the concept of address space. Leaving the other address spaces
(__iomem, __percpu & __rcu) aside, it should be possible to have
__user & __kernel tagged pointers as well as tagged ulongs:
	__user __tagged *
	__kernel __tagged *
	ulong __tagged
in addition of the usuals:
	__user *
	__kernel *
	ulong
But some of them are banished or meaningless:
	__user *            (all __user pointers are potentially tagged)
	__kernel __tagged * (tags are only for user space)
	ulong __tagged      (pointers need to be untagged during conversion)
So, only the followings remain:
	__user __tagged *
	__kernel *
	ulong
and the property '__tagged' becomes equivalent to '__user'.
Thus '__tagged' can be implicit and this would have the advantage
of not needing to change any annotations.

Since the conversion '__user *' to '__kernel *' is already covered
by the default sparse warnings, only the conversion '__user' to
'ulong' need to be covered (and this is already covered by the new
option -Wcast-from-as) but that is only fine for detection. After
detection and auditing, several solution are possible:
1) simply add '__force' in the cast (this is very bad)
2) moving this '__force' inside a macro '__untag_ptr(x)' would already
   more acceptable but is fundamentaly the same as 1)
3) a weaker form of '__force', '__force_as', will do the trick nicely
   as long as __user is equated to __tagged (and could be useful on
   its own but could also hide real AS conversion problems).
4) a more specific solution would be to effectively add a new attribute,
   '__tagged', to define '__user' like:
	#define __user attribute((noderef,address_space(1),tagged))
   and have something like '__untag', a weaker form of __force meaning:
   "I know what I'm doing regarding conversion from 'tagged'". 

Neither 3) nor 4) should be much work but while I firmly think that
4) is the most correct solution, I'm not sure it's worth the added
complexity, certainly if KHWASAN is not meant to be upstreamed.

For the compat pointers, I'm less sure to understand the situation:
even if they can't be tagged, treating them as the other __user
pointers will still be OK (but I understand that it could be
interesting to be able to track them, it's just that it's independent
from the __tagged property).

No, several of these are wrong, and just silence a warning that shows a problem.

So for example:

this actually looks correct.

But:

This looks actively wrong. The whole - and only - point of
"__chk_user_ptr()" is that it warns about a lack of a "__user *" type.

So the above makes no sense at all.

There are other similar "that makes no sense what-so-ever", like this one:

> -               struct compat_group_req __user *gr32 = (void *)optval;
> +               struct compat_group_req __user *gr32 = (__force void *)optval;

no, the additionl of __force is not the right thing, the problem, is
that a __user pointer is cast to a non-user 'void *' only to be
assigned to another user type.

The fix should have been to use (void __user *) as the cast instead,
no __force needed.

In general, I think the patch shows all the signs of "mindlessly just
add casts", which is exactly the wrong thing to do to sparse warnings.

Side note: I do think that while the above is correct, the rest of the
patch shows that we might be better off simply not havign the warning
for address space changes at all for the "cast a pointer to an integer
type" case.

When you cast to a non-pointer type, the address space issue simply
doesn't exist at all, so the warning makes less sense.

It's really just he "pointer to one address space" being cast to
"pointer to another address space" that should really warn, and that
might need that "__force" thing.

Hmm? So maybe a sparse change is better for most of that patch.

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, I don't think there is
anything to change for this specific point. Sparse don't warn
(by default) on "cast from pointer with address space to integer",
as it always been the case, I think. I think it's the good choice.

It's just that recently, I've added a new flag -Wcast-from-as [1],
defaulting to 'no', specifically to *detect* these cast because of
these tagged pointers.

Note: I tend to think more and more that __force is simply too
      strong and weaker form, like __force_as and __force_bitwise
      would be more appropriate.

That's actually a new (potential) issue introduced by these patches. The
arm64 architecture has a feature called Top Byte Ignore (TBI, a.k.a.
tagged pointers) where the top 8-bit of a 64-bit pointer can be set to
anything and the hardware automatically ignores it when dereferencing.
The arm64 user/kernel ABI currently mandates that any pointer passed
from user space to the kernel must have the top byte 0.

This patchset is proposing to relax the ABI so that user pointers with a
non-zero top byte can be actually passed via kernel syscalls. It
basically moves the responsibility to remove the pointer tag (where
needed) from user to the kernel (and for some good reasons, user space
can't always do it given the way hwasan is implemented in LLVM).

The downside is that now a tagged user pointer may not represent just a
virtual address but address|tag, so things like access_ok() or
find_extended_vma() need to untag (clear the top byte of) the pointer
before use. Note that copy_from_user() etc. can safely dereference a
tagged user pointer as the tag is automatically ignored by the hardware.

The arm64 maintainers asked for a more reliable approach to identifying
existing and new cases where such explicit untagging is required and one
of the proposals was a sparse option. Based on some observations, it
seems that untagging is needed when a pointer is cast to a long and the
pointer tag information can be dropped. With the sparse patch, there are
lots of warnings where we actually can preserve the tag (e.g. compat
user pointers should be ignored since the top 32-bit are always 0), so
Andrey is trying to mask such warnings out so that we can detect new
potential issues as the kernel evolves.

So it's not about casting to another pointer; it's rather about no
longer using the value as a user pointer but as an actual (untyped,
untagged) virtual address.

There may be better options to address this but I haven't seen any
concrete proposal so far. Or we could simply consider that we've found
all places where it matters and not bother with any static analysis
tools (but for the time being it's still worth investigating whether we
can do better than this).

I think sparse already warns if changing the address space of a pointer.

I actually originally wanted to have sparse not just check types, but
actually do transformations too, in order to check more.

For example, for just the user pointer case, we actually have two
wildy different kinds of user pointers: "checked" user pointers and
"wild" user pointers.

Most of the time it doesn't matter, but it does for the unsafe ones:
"__get_user()" and friends.

So long long ago I wanted sparse to not just do the completely static
type analysis, but also do actual "data flow" analysis where doing an
"access_on()" on a pointer would turn it from "wild" to "checked", and
then I could have warned about "hey, this function does __get_user(),
but the flow analysis shows that you passed it a pointer that had
never been checked".

But sparse never ended up doing that kind of much smarter things. Some
of the lock context stuff does it on a very small local level, and not
very well there either.

But it sounds like this is exactly what you guys would want for the
tagged pointers. Some functions can take a "wild" pointer, because
they deal with the tag part natively. And others need to be "checked"
and have gone through the cleaning and verification.

But sparse is sadly not the right tool for this, and having a single
"__user" address space is not sufficient. I guess for the arm64 case,
you really could make up a *new* address space: "__user_untagged", and
then have functions that convert from "void __user *" to "void
__user_untagged *", and then mark the functions that need the tag
removed as taking that new kind of user pointer.

And if you never mix types, that would actually work. But I'm guessing
you can also pass "__user_untagged" pointers to the regular user
access functions, and you do?

Fortunately, most (all) functions taking a __user pointer can cope with
tagged pointers since they never dereference the pointer directly but
pass it through uaccess functions (which can access tagged pointers
without untagging). The problem appears when the pointer is no longer
used for access but converted to a long for other uses like rbtree
look-up, so not actually dereferenced. Such conversion, in a few cases,
needs to lose the tag.

Of course, there are lots of void __user * conversions to long where
removing the tag is not always the right thing or required (hence the
__force annotations in this patchset).

As Luc mentioned in this thread, we can consider that __user pointers
are always tagged. What I think we'd need is a few annotations where
ulong must be an __untagged address (and I guess in smaller numbers than
the __force ones proposed here). For example we can allow
get_user_pages() to get an (ulong)(void __user *) conversion but
find_vma() would only take an (unsigned long __untagged) argument. Such
attribute conversion would be handled by an untagged_addr() macro. So we
move the detection problem from pointer conversion to an ulong (tagged
by default) to ulong __untagged conversion (I'm not sure sparse can do
this).

That's slightly different than trying to identify all the __user ptr to
long conversions but, as you said, it's probably not a complete solution
anyway and with lots of __force annotations throughout the kernel.
Andrey Konovalov Sept. 17, 2018, 5:01 p.m. UTC | #17
I took another look at the changes this patchset does to the kernel
and here are my thoughts:

I see two ways how a (potentially tagged) user pointer gets into the kernel:

1. A pointer is passed to a syscall (directly as an argument or
indirectly as a struct field).
2. A pointer is extracted from user context (registers, etc.) by some
kind of a trap/fault handler.
(Is there something else?)

In case 1 we also have a special case of a pointer passed to one of
the memory syscalls (mmap, mprotect, etc.). These syscalls "are not
doing memory accesses but rather dealing with the memory range, hence
an untagged pointer is better suited" as pointed out by Catalin (these
syscalls do not always use "unsigned long" instead of "void __user *"
though, for example shmat uses "void __user *").

Looking at patch #8 ("usb, arm64: untag user addresses in devio") in
this series, it seems that that devio ioctl actually accepts a pointer
into a vma, so we shouldn't actually be untagging its argument and the
patch needs to be dropped. Otherwise there's quite a few more cases
that needs to be changed (like tcp_zerocopy_receive() for example,
more can be found by grepping find_vma() in generic code).

Regarding case 2, it seems that analyzing casts of __user pointers
won't really help, since the code (arch/arm64/mm/fault.c) doesn't
really use them. However all of this code is arch specific, so it
shouldn't really change over time (right?). It looks like dealing with
tags passed to the kernel through these fault handlers is already
resolved with these patches (and therefore patch #6 ("arm64: untag
user address in __do_user_fault") in this series is not actually
needed and can be dropped (need to test that)):

276e9327 ("arm64: entry: improve data abort handling of tagged pointers"),
81cddd65 ("arm64: traps: fix userspace cache maintenance emulation on
a tagged pointer")
7dcd9dd8 ("arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged pointers")

Now, I also see two cases when kernel behavior changes depending on
whether a pointer is tagged:

1. Kernel code checks that a pointer belongs to userspace by comparing
it with TASK_SIZE/addr_limit/user_addr_max()/USER_DS/... .
2. A pointer gets passed to find_vma() or similar functions.
(Is there something else?)

The initial thought that I had here is that the pointers that reach
find_vma() must be passed through memory syscalls and therefore
shouldn't be untagged and don't require any fixes. There are at least
two exceptions to this: 1. get_user_pages() (see patch #4 ("mm, arm64:
untag user addresses in mm/gup.c") in this patch series) and 2.
__do_page_fault() in arch/arm64/mm/fault.c. Are there any other
obvious exceptions? I've tried adding BUG_ON(has_tag(addr)) to
find_vma() and running a modified syzkaller version that passes tagged
pointers to the kernel and failed to find anything else.

As for case 1, the places where pointers are compared with TASK_SIZE
and others can be found with grep. Maybe it makes sense to introduce
some kind of routine like is_user_pointer() that handles tagged
pointers and refactor the existing code to use it? And maybe add a
rule to checkpatch.pl that forbids the direct usage of TASK_SIZE and
others.

So I think detecting direct comparisons with TASK_SIZE and others
would more useful than finding __user pointer casts (it seems that the
latter requires a lot of annotations to be fixed/added), and I should
just drop this patch with annotations.

WDYT?

If it makes things any simpler, we could revisit this though it seems to
me more consistent not to pass a tagged pointer back into the kernel
when the original one was untagged (i.e. mmap vs munmap).

(if it wasn't for pointers in structures, I would have just left the
problem entirely to the C library to do the untagging before calling the
kernel)

You are right, the pointer seems to have originated from the kernel as
already untagged (mmap() on the driver), so we would expect the user to
pass it back an untagged pointer.

Yes, it's similar to the devio one.

I'm less worried about (2) since, as you say, it's under the arch
control and, even if it changes slightly over time, we can be aware of
this.

I think these are the main cases.

Vincenzo F did some more in-depth analysis, I'll let him answer whether
he has found any more cases.

At a quick grep, arm64_notify_segfault() (it changes the siginfo
si_code). There are a few other places which assume that the address is
already untagged but we don't seem to have a clear guideline on the ABI.
For example, prctl(PR_SET_MM) takes user addresses and we assume they
are untagged (as in the mmap() and friends).

I added a similar test with an LD_PRELOAD'ed malloc/free implementation
on Debian and seemed alright but I'd rather want something more
consistent when defining the user ABI, otherwise we have places where
find_vma() is called but requires untagging.

I think point (1) is not too bad, usually found with grep.

As I've said in my previous reply, I kind of came to the same conclusion
that searching __user pointer casts to long may not actually scale. If
we could add an __untagged annotation to ulong where it matters (e.g.
find_vma()), we could identify a ulong (default tagged) and annotate
some of those.

However, this analysis on __user * casting was useful even if we don't
end up using it. If we come up with a clearer definition of the ABI
(which syscalls accept tagged pointers), we may conclude that the only
places where untagging matters are a few find_vma() calls in the arch
and mm code and can ignore the rest.

FTR, this code is a prerequisite for ARM's memory tagging hardware
feature. Interestingly, I can't find SPARC ADI support dealing with this
aspect at all. I suspect their user ABI does not allow tagged addresses
passed to the kernel.

OK, dropped this patch in v7.

So what exactly should I do now?

For now I've posted v7 with the sparse annotation patch dropped (to
have the most up-do-date version posted).
