Remote KCOV coverage collection enables coverage-guided fuzzing of the
code that is not reachable during normal system call execution. It is
especially helpful for fuzzing networking subsystems, where it is
common to perform packet handling in separate work queues even for the
packets that originated directly from the user space.

Enable coverage-guided frame injection by adding kcov remote handle to
skb extensions. Default initialization in __alloc_skb and
__build_skb_around ensures that no socket buffer that was generated
during a system call will be missed.

Code that is of interest and that performs packet processing should be
annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().

An alternative approach is to determine kcov_handle solely on the
basis of the device/interface that received the specific socket
buffer. However, in this case it would be impossible to distinguish
between packets that originated during normal background network
processes or were intentionally injected from the user space.

Hi,

This causes skb extensions to be allocated for the allocated skb, but
there are instances that blindly overwrite 'skb->extensions' by invoking
skb_copy_header() after __alloc_skb(). For example, skb_copy(),
__pskb_copy_fclone() and skb_copy_expand(). This results in the skb
extensions being leaked [1].

One possible solution is to try to patch all these instances with
skb_ext_put() before skb_copy_header().

Another possible solution is to convert skb_copy_header() to use
skb_ext_copy() instead of __skb_ext_copy(). It will first drop the
reference on the skb extensions of the new skb, but it assumes that
'skb->active_extensions' is valid. This is not the case in the
skb_clone() path so we should probably zero this field in __skb_clone().

Other suggestions?
Looking at the patch from Marco to move back to a field now I'm
wondering how you run into this, Ido :D

AFAIU the extension is only added if process as a KCOV handle.

Are you using KCOV?
Hi Jakub,

Yes. We have an internal syzkaller instance where this is enabled. See
"syz-executor.0" in the trace below.
