I noticed that randconfig builds with gcc no longer produce a lot of
ccache hits, unlike with clang, and traced this back to plugins
now being enabled unconditionally if they are supported.
I am now working around this by adding
export CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK=/usr/bin/size -A %compiler%
to my top-level Makefile. This changes the heuristic that ccache uses
to determine whether the plugins are the same after a 'make clean'.
However, it also seems that being able to just turn off the plugins is
generally useful, at least for build testing it adds noticeable overhead
but does not find a lot of bugs additional bugs, and may be easier for
ccache users than my workaround.

GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the

compiler. They are useful for runtime instrumentation and static analysis.

The complexity M of a function's control flow graph is defined as:
|
|
M = E - N + 2P
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
E = the number of edges
|
|
N = the number of nodes
|
|
P = the number of connected components (exit nodes).
|
|
|
|
Enabling this plugin reports the complexity to stderr during the
|
|
build. It mainly serves as a simple example of how to create a
|
|
gcc plugin for the kernel.

gcc-4.5 on). It is based on the commit "Add fuzzing coverage support"

help
|

By saying Y here the kernel will instrument some kernel code to
|
|
extract some entropy from both original and artificially created
|
|
program state. This will help especially embedded systems where
|
|
there is little 'natural' source of entropy normally. The cost
|
|
is some slowdown of the boot process (about 0.5%) and fork and
|
|
irq processing.
|
|
|
|
Note that entropy extracted this way is not cryptographically
|
|
secure!

|

If you say Y here, the layouts of structures that are entirely
|
|
function pointers (and have not been manually annotated with
|
|
__no_randomize_layout), or structures that have been explicitly
|
|
marked with __randomize_layout, will be randomized at compile-time.
|
|
This can introduce the requirement of an additional information
|
|
exposure vulnerability for exploits targeting these structure
|
|
types.
|
|
|
|
Enabling this feature will introduce some performance impact,
|
|
slightly increase memory usage, and prevent the use of forensic
|
|
tools like Volatility against the system (unless the kernel
|
|
source tree isn't cleaned after kernel installation).
|
|
|
|
The seed used for compilation is located at
|
|
scripts/gcc-plgins/randomize_layout_seed.h. It remains after
|
|
a make clean to allow for external modules to be compiled with
|
|
the existing seed and will be removed by a make mrproper or
|
|
make distclean.
|
|
|
|
Note that the implementation requires gcc 4.7 or newer.

If you say Y here, the RANDSTRUCT randomization will make a

|
best effort at restricting randomization to cacheline-sized
|
|
groups of elements. It will further not randomize bitfields

in structures. This reduces the performance hit of RANDSTRUCT
