Kconfig: consolidate the "Kernel hacking" menu

2018-08-01T23:06:48+00:00

Move the source of lib/Kconfig.debug and arch/$(ARCH)/Kconfig.debug to
the top-level Kconfig.  For two architectures that means moving their
arch-specific symbols in that menu into a new arch Kconfig.debug file,
and for a few more creating a dummy file so that we can include it
unconditionally.

Also move the actual 'Kernel hacking' menu to lib/Kconfig.debug, where
it belongs.

arm64: relocation testing module

2017-04-04T16:03:32+00:00

This module tests the module loader's ELF relocation processing
routines. When loaded, it logs output like below.

arch: Rename CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_MODULE_RONX

2017-02-07T20:32:52+00:00

Both of these options are poorly named. The features they provide are
necessary for system security and should not be considered debug only.
Change the names to CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX to better describe what these options do.

arch: Move CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX to be common

2017-02-07T20:32:52+00:00

There are multiple architectures that support CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and
CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX. These options also now have the ability to be
turned off at runtime. Move these to an architecture independent
location and make these options def_bool y for almost all of those
arches.

efi: arm64: Add vmlinux debug link to the Image binary

2017-02-03T15:22:37+00:00

When building with debugging symbols, take the absolute path to the
vmlinux binary and add it to the special PE/COFF debug table entry.
This allows a debug EFI build to find the vmlinux binary, which is
very helpful in debugging, given that the offset where the Image is
first loaded by EFI is highly unpredictable.

On implementations of UEFI that choose to implement it, this
information is exposed via the EFI debug support table, which is a UEFI
configuration table that is accessible both by the firmware at boot time
and by the OS at runtime, and lists all PE/COFF images loaded by the
system.

The format of the NB10 Codeview entry is based on the definition used
by EDK2, which is our primary reference when it comes to the use of
PE/COFF in the context of UEFI firmware.

arm64: dump: Add checking for writable and exectuable pages

2016-11-07T18:15:04+00:00

Page mappings with full RWX permissions are a security risk. x86
has an option to walk the page tables and dump any bad pages.
(See e1a58320a38d ("x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings")). Add a similar
implementation for arm64.

arm64: dump: Make ptdump debugfs a separate option

2016-11-07T18:15:04+00:00

ptdump_register currently initializes a set of page table information and
registers debugfs. There are uses for the ptdump option without wanting the
debugfs options. Split this out to make it a separate option.

arm64: always enable DEBUG_RODATA and remove the Kconfig option

2016-08-26T09:13:41+00:00

Follow the example set by x86 in commit 9ccaf77cf05915f5 ("x86/mm:
Always enable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and remove the Kconfig option"), and
make these protections a fundamental security feature rather than an
opt-in. This also results in a minor code simplification.

For those rare cases when users wish to disable this protection (e.g.
for debugging), this can be done by passing 'rodata=off' on the command
line.

As DEBUG_RODATA_ALIGN is only intended to address a performance/memory
tradeoff, and does not affect correctness, this is left user-selectable.
DEBUG_MODULE_RONX is also left user-selectable until the core code
provides a boot-time option to disable the protection for debugging
use-cases.

arm64: enable CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX by default

2016-05-31T13:23:29+00:00

The SET_MODULE_RONX protections are effectively the same as the
DEBUG_RODATA protections we enabled by default back in commit
57efac2f7108e325 ("arm64: enable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA by default"). It
seems unusual to have one but not the other.

As evidenced by the help text, the rationale appears to be that
SET_MODULE_RONX interacts poorly with tracing and patching, but both of
these make use of the insn framework, which takes SET_MODULE_RONX into
account. Any remaining issues are bugs which should be fixed regardless
of the default state of the option.

This patch enables DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX by default, and replaces the
help text with a new wording derived from the DEBUG_RODATA help text,
which better describes the functionality. Previously, the DEBUG_RODATA
entry was inconsistently indented with spaces, which are replaced with
tabs as with the other Kconfig entries.

Additionally, the wording of recommended defaults is made consistent for
all options. These are placed in a new paragraph, unquoted, as a full
sentence (with a period/full stop) as this appears to be the most common
form per $(git grep 'in doubt').
