[PATCH 0/4 v5] fortify: Add Clang support

Hi,

So, after looking at v4 at little longer I decided that it is just too
invasive. After spending time researching the primary issue that needed to
be worked around (__builtin_object_size(p, 1) not working from inlines),
I got some help from gbiv to use some Clang-specific attributes to get the
same effect.

I think the result is much less invasive, and it even lets us easily
expand size verification coverage into non-inlines if we ever want to.

Please take a look. :)

2.30.2

In order to gain greater visibility to type information when using
__builtin_object_size(), Clang has a function attribute "pass_object_size"
that will make size information available for marked arguments in
a function by way of implicit additional function arguments that are
then wired up the __builtin_object_size().

This is needed to implement FORTIFY_SOURCE in Clang, as a workaround
to Clang's __builtin_object_size() having limited visibility[1] into types
across function calls (even inlines).

This has an additional benefit that it can be used even on non-inline
functions to gain argument size information.

In order for FORTIFY_SOURCE to use __pass_object_size on an "inline
extern" function, as all the fortified string functions are, the functions
must be marked as being overloadable (i.e. different prototypes).
This allows the __pass_object_size versions to take precedence.

2.30.2

Enable FORTIFY_SOURCE support for Clang:

Use the new __pass_object_size and __overloadable attributes so
that Clang will have appropriate visibility into argument types such
that __builtin_object_size(p, 1) will behave correctly. Additional
details here:
    https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/53516
    https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1401

Use the new __diagnose_as attribute to make sure no compile-time
diagnostic warnings are lost due to the effectively renamed string
functions.

Redefine strlen() as a macro that tests for being a constant expression
so that strlen() can still be used in static initializers, which was
lost when adding __pass_object_size and __overloadable.

Finally, a bug with __builtin_constant_p() of globally defined variables
was fixed in Clang 13, so FORTIFY support must depend on that version or
later. Additional details here:

Clang will perform various compile-time diagnostics on uses of various
functions (e.g. simple bounds-checking on strcpy(), etc). These
diagnostics can be assigned to other functions (for example, new
implementations of the string functions under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE)
using the "diagnose_as_builtin" attribute. This allows those functions
to retain their compile-time diagnostic warnings.

If you think it is valuable having it nearby (e.g. when inspecting the
definition of the attribute in a call site), then it is fine having
them -- I am all for documentation (and we could consider having a
small summary/one-liner for all attributes). But, in general, I would
avoid repeating all the compiler docs (or, if needed, we could fix
those upstream if they are not clear etc.).

A dumb bikeshed, but would you mind naming these BOS1 and BOS0, and
perhaps consider adding a comment or pointer or link to something that
describes why we use the two different modes?  I recognize that the
code already uses the two different modes already without comments,
but this might be a nice place to point folks like myself to so that
in a month or so when I forget what the difference is between modes

It doesn't rely on it; this is just taking advantage of an improvement.

Ah-ha! I missed that this got backported. Looks like 12.0.1 and later
have this fixed. That's excellent!

Yup, I will rework this after double-checking 12.0.1 builds.

describes why we use the two different modes?  I recognize that the
code already uses the two different modes already without comments,
but this might be a nice place to point folks like myself to so that
in a month or so when I forget what the difference is between modes
(again), we have a shorter trail of breadcrumbs.

Sure, I can do that. My expectation was to entirely eliminate mode 0
usage in the future.

Though now that things are so close, I'll just do some builds with the
last few users switched over. But maybe memcmp() was a pain? I'll go
check...

Ah yeah, thanks. Fixed.
