CONFIG_INIT_ALL_MEMORY is going to be an umbrella config for options
that force heap and stack initialization.
The rationale behind doing so is to reduce the severity of bugs caused
by using uninitialized memory.

CONFIG_INIT_ALL_STACK turns on stack initialization based on
-ftrivial-auto-var-init in Clang builds and on
-fplugin-arg-structleak_plugin-byref-all in GCC builds.

-ftrivial-auto-var-init is a Clang flag that provides trivial
initializers for uninitialized local variables, variable fields and
padding.

It has three possible values:
  pattern - uninitialized locals are filled with a fixed pattern
    (mostly 0xAA on 64-bit platforms, see https://reviews.llvm.org/D54604
    for more details) likely to cause crashes when uninitialized value is
    used;
  zero (it's still debated whether this flag makes it to the official
    Clang release) - uninitialized locals are filled with zeroes;
  uninitialized (default) - uninitialized locals are left intact.

The proposed config builds the kernel with
-ftrivial-auto-var-init=pattern.

Developers have the possibility to opt-out of this feature on a
per-file (by using the INIT_ALL_MEMORY_ Makefile prefix) or per-variable
(by using __attribute__((uninitialized))) basis.

For GCC builds, CONFIG_INIT_ALL_STACK is simply wired up to
CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL. No opt-out is possible at the
moment.

A friendly ping.
Please let me know if I should wait for any upcoming changes to
CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL.

Hi! Sorry for the delay -- between the merge window and travel, I'm
still a couple weeks behind. I should be able to look more closely at
this late next week.

Do you have a plan to use this per-file prefix?
If so, could you elaborate which parts should opt out?

Ugh, the logic is getting complicated.


When I enabled INIT_ALL_MEMORY, I saw this:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for GCC_PLUGINS
  Depends on [n]: HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS [=y] && PLUGIN_HOSTCC [=]!=

I've added that when I started experimenting with auto-initialization,
but so far I haven't encountered a use-case for that, especially since
there's __attribute__((uninitialized)).
I'd better remove this part for now till we actually need it.

Not sure what's the best strategy here.
GCC provides only the 0x00 initialization.
Clang provides both, but 0x00 is hidden behind the
-enable-trivial-auto-var-init-zero-knowing-it-will-be-removed-from-clang
flag, which may be gone at some point.
Overall, initializing locals with 0xAA pattern is better, as it is
more likely to cause early detectable crashes when using those values.

Yes, we need to check for PLUGIN_HOSTCC as well. I'll update the patch.
FWIW you need gcc-*-plugin-dev installed in order to use these plugins.
