KUnit tests are not supposed to run on production systems: they may do deliberately illegal things to trigger errors, and have security implications (assertions will often deliberately leak kernel addresses). Add a new taint type, TAINT_KUNIT to signal that a KUnit test has been run. This will be printed as 'N' (for kuNit, as K, U and T were already taken). This should discourage people from running KUnit tests on production systems, and to make it easier to tell if tests have been run accidentally (by loading the wrong configuration, etc.) Signed-off-by: David Gow <davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20220429043913.626647-1-davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx/ - Make the taint per-module, to handle the case when tests are in (longer lasting) modules. (Thanks Greg KH). Note that this still has checkpatch.pl warnings around bracket placement, which are intentional as part of matching the surrounding code. --- Documentation/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.rst | 1 + include/linux/panic.h | 3 ++- kernel/panic.c | 1 + lib/kunit/test.c | 4 ++++ 4 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.rst index ceeed7b0798d..8f18fc4659d4 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.rst @@ -100,6 +100,7 @@ Bit Log Number Reason that got the kernel tainted 15 _/K 32768 kernel has been live patched 16 _/X 65536 auxiliary taint, defined for and used by distros 17 _/T 131072 kernel was built with the struct randomization plugin + 18 _/N 262144 a KUnit test has been run === === ====== ======================================================== Note: The character ``_`` is representing a blank in this table to make reading diff --git a/include/linux/panic.h b/include/linux/panic.h index f5844908a089..1d316c26bf27 100644 --- a/include/linux/panic.h +++ b/include/linux/panic.h @@ -74,7 +74,8 @@ static inline void set_arch_panic_timeout(int timeout, int arch_default_timeout) #define TAINT_LIVEPATCH 15 #define TAINT_AUX 16 #define TAINT_RANDSTRUCT 17 -#define TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT 18 +#define TAINT_KUNIT 18 +#define TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT 19 #define TAINT_FLAGS_MAX ((1UL << TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT) - 1) struct taint_flag { diff --git a/kernel/panic.c b/kernel/panic.c index eb4dfb932c85..9a026d98a00c 100644 --- a/kernel/panic.c +++ b/kernel/panic.c @@ -404,6 +404,7 @@ const struct taint_flag taint_flags[TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT] = { [ TAINT_LIVEPATCH ] = { 'K', ' ', true }, [ TAINT_AUX ] = { 'X', ' ', true }, [ TAINT_RANDSTRUCT ] = { 'T', ' ', true }, + [ TAINT_KUNIT ] = { 'N', ' ', true }, }; /** diff --git a/lib/kunit/test.c b/lib/kunit/test.c index 0f66c13d126e..ea8e9162445d 100644 --- a/lib/kunit/test.c +++ b/lib/kunit/test.c @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ #include <kunit/test-bug.h> #include <linux/kernel.h> #include <linux/moduleparam.h> +#include <linux/panic.h> #include <linux/sched/debug.h> #include <linux/sched.h> @@ -498,6 +499,9 @@ int kunit_run_tests(struct kunit_suite *suite) struct kunit_result_stats suite_stats = { 0 }; struct kunit_result_stats total_stats = { 0 }; + /* Taint the kernel so we know we've run tests. */ + add_taint(TAINT_KUNIT, LOCKDEP_STILL_OK); + kunit_print_subtest_start(suite); kunit_suite_for_each_test_case(suite, test_case) { -- 2.36.0.464.gb9c8b46e94-goog
