17  * Support functions for stack smashing protection (-fstack-protector
18  * and family)
19  *
20  * The principle behind SSP is to place a "canary" value on the stack
21  * just below the arguments to a given function (which are in turn
22  * below the previous %rbp and return pointer). We write it onto the
23  * stack at the start of a function, and then at the end just before
24  * we execute "leave" and "ret", we check that the value is still there.
25  *
26  * If the check fails, we jump immediately to a handler (which typically
27  * just executes panic() straight away).
28  *
29  * Since an attacker will not know the value of the "canary", they will
30  * not be able to repair it correctly when overwriting the stack (and in
31  * almost all cases they must overwrite the canary to get to the return
32  * pointer), and the check will fail (and safely panic) instead of
33  * letting them gain control over %rip in a kernel thread.
34  *
35  * To debugging tools the canary just looks like another local variable
36  * (since it's placed below the normal argument space), and so there
37  * should be minimal/no impact on things that try to parse the
38  * function preamble.
39  *
40  * Of course, adding these guards to every single function does not come
41  * without a price in performance, so normally only a subset of functions
42  * in a given program are guarded. Selecting which subset, and adding the
43  * guards is all handled automatically by the compiler.
44  *
45  * There are 3 (or 4) major relevant compiler options in GCC:
46  *     * -fstack-protector
47  *     * -fstack-protector-strong (only in GCC >= 4.9)
48  *     * -fstack-protector-all
49  *     * -fno-stack-protector
50  *
51  * The only differences between -fstack-protector, -strong and -all is in
52  * which functions are selected for adding guards.
53  *
54  * -fstack-protector adds guards to functions that make use of a stack-
55  * allocated char array (or aggregate containing one) of at least 8 bytes
56  * in length.
57  *
58  * -fstack-protector-strong adds guards everywhere -fstack-protector
59  * does, and also adds guards to all functions that take or pass an address
60  * to a stack-allocated array of any type (eg arr, &arr[1] etc), as well as
61  * functions containing certain kinds of pointer arithmetic.
62  *
63  * -fstack-protector-all (as the name suggests) adds guards to every single
64  * function.
65  *
66  * There is also another variant, in the ProPolice patches which are used
67  * by some members of the BSD family (eg OpenBSD), which also guards any
68  * functions that store function pointers on the stack, as well as a few
69  * other heuristics (like re-ordering variables so arrays are as close as
70  * possible to the canary)
