kcov: allow more fine-grained coverage instrumentation
For more targeted fuzzing, it's better to disable kernel-wide instrumentation and instead enable it on a per-subsystem basis. This follows the pattern of UBSAN and allows you to compile in the kcov driver without instrumenting the whole kernel. To instrument a part of the kernel, you can use either # for a single file in the current directory KCOV_INSTRUMENT_filename.o := y or # for all the files in the current directory (excluding subdirectories) KCOV_INSTRUMENT := y or # (same as above) ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV) or # for all the files in the current directory (including subdirectories) subdir-ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1464008380-11405-1-git-send-email-vegard.nossum@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If you are doing generic system call fuzzing (like e.g. syzkaller),
|
||||
then you will want to instrument the whole kernel and you should
|
||||
say y here. If you are doing more targeted fuzzing (like e.g.
|
||||
filesystem fuzzing with AFL) then you will want to enable coverage
|
||||
for more specific subsets of files, and should say n here.
