<title>test_hash.c: refactor into kunit</title>

Use KUnit framework to make tests more easily integrable with CIs.  Even
though these tests are not yet properly written as unit tests this
change should help in debugging.

Also remove kernel messages (i.e.  through pr_info) as KUnit handles all
debugging output and let it handle module init and exit details.

Split TEST_HASH so that each entry only has one file.

Note that there's no stringhash test file, but actually
&lt;linux/stringhash.h&gt; tests are performed in lib/test_hash.c.

This module uses reference tracker, forcing two issues.

1) Double free of a tracker

2) leak of two trackers, one being allocated from softirq context.

"modprobe test_ref_tracker" would emit the following traces.
(Use scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh if necessary)

It can be hard to track where references are taken and released.

In networking, we have annoying issues at device or netns dismantles,
and we had various proposals to ease root causing them.

This patch adds new infrastructure pairing refcount increases
and decreases. This will self document code, because programmers
will have to associate increments/decrements.

This is controled by CONFIG_REF_TRACKER which can be selected
by users of this feature.

This adds both cpu and memory costs, and thus should probably be
used with care.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - kprobes: Restructured stack unwinder to show properly on x86 when a
   stack dump happens from a kretprobe callback.

 - Fix to bootconfig parsing

 - Have tracefs allow owner and group permissions by default (only
   denying others). There's been pressure to allow non root to tracefs
   in a controlled fashion, and using groups is probably the safest.

 - Bootconfig memory managament updates.

 - Bootconfig clean up to have the tools directory be less dependent on
   changes in the kernel tree.

 - Allow perf to be traced by function tracer.

 - Rewrite of function graph tracer to be a callback from the function
   tracer instead of having its own trampoline (this change will happen
   on an arch by arch basis, and currently only x86_64 implements it).

 - Allow multiple direct trampolines (bpf hooks to functions) be batched
   together in one synchronization.

 - Allow histogram triggers to add variables that can perform
   calculations against the event's fields.

 - Use the linker to determine architecture callbacks from the ftrace
   trampoline to allow for proper parameter prototypes and prevent
   warnings from the compiler.

 - Extend histogram triggers to key off of variables.

 - Have trace recursion use bit magic to determine preempt context over
   if branches.

 - Have trace recursion disable preemption as all use cases do anyway.

 - Added testing for verification of tracing utilities.

 - Various small clean ups and fixes.

Pull overflow updates from Kees Cook:
 "The end goal of the current buffer overflow detection work[0] is to
  gain full compile-time and run-time coverage of all detectable buffer
  overflows seen via array indexing or memcpy(), memmove(), and
  memset(). The str*() family of functions already have full coverage.

  While much of the work for these changes have been on-going for many
  releases (i.e. 0-element and 1-element array replacements, as well as
  avoiding false positives and fixing discovered overflows[1]), this
  series contains the foundational elements of several related buffer
  overflow detection improvements by providing new common helpers and
  FORTIFY_SOURCE changes needed to gain the introspection required for
  compiler visibility into array sizes. Also included are a handful of
  already Acked instances using the helpers (or related clean-ups), with
  many more waiting at the ready to be taken via subsystem-specific
  trees[2].

  The new helpers are:

   - struct_group() for gaining struct member range introspection

   - memset_after() and memset_startat() for clearing to the end of
     structures

   - DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() for using flex arrays in unions or alone in
     structs

  Also included is the beginning of the refactoring of FORTIFY_SOURCE to
  support memcpy() introspection, fix missing and regressed coverage
  under GCC, and to prepare to fix the currently broken Clang support.
  Finishing this work is part of the larger series[0], but depends on
  all the false positives and buffer overflow bug fixes to have landed
  already and those that depend on this series to land.

  As part of the FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring, a set of both a
  compile-time and run-time tests are added for FORTIFY_SOURCE and the
  mem*()-family functions respectively. The compile time tests have
  found a legitimate (though corner-case) bug[6] already.

  Please note that the appearance of "panic" and "BUG" in the
  FORTIFY_SOURCE refactoring are the result of relocating existing code,
  and no new use of those code-paths are expected nor desired.

  Finally, there are two tree-wide conversions for 0-element arrays and
  flexible array unions to gain sane compiler introspection coverage
  that result in no known object code differences.

  After this series (and the changes that have now landed via netdev and
  usb), we are very close to finally being able to build with
  -Warray-bounds and -Wzero-length-bounds.

  However, due corner cases in GCC[3] and Clang[4], I have not included
  the last two patches that turn on these options, as I don't want to
  introduce any known warnings to the build. Hopefully these can be
  solved soon"

Since config KPROBES_SANITY_TEST is in lib/Kconfig.debug, it is better to
let test_kprobes.c in lib/, just like other similar tests found in lib/.

<content type='text'>
While the run-time testing of FORTIFY_SOURCE is already present in
LKDTM, there is no testing of the expected compile-time detections. In
preparation for correctly supporting FORTIFY_SOURCE under Clang, adding
additional FORTIFY_SOURCE defenses, and making sure FORTIFY_SOURCE
doesn't silently regress with GCC, introduce a build-time test suite that
checks each expected compile-time failure condition.

As this is relatively backwards from standard build rules in the
sense that a successful test is actually a compile _failure_, create
a wrapper script to check for the correct errors, and wire it up as
a dummy dependency to lib/string.o, collecting the results into a log
file artifact.
