[PATCH 0/3] kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from the USB
subsystem and vhost workers. See the first patch description for details
about the kcov extension. The other two patches apply this kcov extension
to USB and vhost.

These patches have been used to enable coverage-guided USB fuzzing with
syzkaller for the last few years, see the details here:

https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/linux/external_fuzzing_usb.md

This patchset has been pushed to the public Linux kernel Gerrit instance:

https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1524

Changes from RFC v1:
- Remove unnecessary #ifdef's from drivers/vhost/vhost.c.
- Reset t->kcov when area allocation fails in kcov_remote_start().
- Use struct_size to calculate array size in kcov_ioctl().
- Add a limit on area_size in kcov_remote_arg.
- Added kcov_disable() helper.
- Changed encoding of kcov remote handle ids, see the documentation.
- Added a comment reference for kcov_sequence task_struct field.
- Change common_handle type to u32.
- Add checks for handle validity into kcov_ioctl_locked() and
    kcov_remote_start().
- Updated documentation to reflect the changes.
