This patch's commit message focuses on signed, and barely mentions unsigned. The actual code changes in this patch only deals with unsigned. Also, what's the motivation for addressing the 'x + y < x' case but not other cases in the same file? For example, the le128_add() function which this patch modifies has two other intentional wraparounds, which this patch doesn't touch. Also, the le128_sub() function just below le128_add() is very similar but does wraparound in the other direction. That's 6 cases in 20 lines of code, but this patch only addresses 1. And of course, lots of other crypto code relies on unsigned wraparounds too, which this patch overlooks. So I'm a bit confused about the point of this patch. If we really wanted to explicitly annotate all the intentional wraparounds in a particular piece of code, so that the code can be run with the corresponding sanitizer enabled, wouldn't it be necessary to actually test the code with that sanitizer enabled to find all the cases? - Eric

I don't mean to forbid wrap-around; we just need to annotate it. I can see how this commit log didn't do a great job explaining this. I hope the cover letter is more sensible: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/20240122235208.work.748-kees@kernel.org/ >Also, what's the motivation for addressing the 'x + y < x' case but not other >cases in the same file? It's a code pattern we could find easily. It's working from the instances found via Coccinelle earlier in the series: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/20240123002814.1396804-5-keescook@chromium.org/ > For example, the le128_add() function which this patch >modifies has two other intentional wraparounds, which this patch doesn't touch. For dedicated wrapping functions we can mark them with __unsigned_wrap: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/20240123002814.1396804-6-keescook@chromium.org/ >Also, the le128_sub() function just below le128_add() is very similar but does >wraparound in the other direction.

Right -- finding these kinds of things is where a lot of time will be spent in the future, I suspect. :) > So I'm a bit confused >about the point of this patch.

Yes, but there's a lot of code to test -- I'm trying to get the first steps done. And then once the sanitizers are in good shape, the fuzzers can grind. (I'm trying to add some parallelism to this project; this code pattern was known so I figured we could address it now.) -Kees

In an effort to separate intentional arithmetic wrap-around from unexpected wrap-around, we need to refactor places that depend on this kind of math. One of the most common code patterns of this is: VAR + value < VAR Notably, this is considered "undefined behavior" for signed and pointer types, which the kernel works around by using the -fno-strict-overflow option in the build[1] (which used to just be -fwrapv). Regardless, we want to get the kernel source to the position where we can meaningfully instrument arithmetic wrap-around conditions and catch them when they are unexpected, regardless of whether they are signed[2], unsigned[3], or pointer[4] types. Refactor open-coded wrap-around addition test to use add_would_overflow(). This paves the way to enabling the wrap-around sanitizers in the future.
