6f1d34bd49 Documentation/kcov: define `ip' in the example
The example code uses the variable `ip' but never declares it.

Declare `ip' as a 64bit variable which is the same type as the array
from which it loads its value.

d687a9ccf2 Documentation/kcov: include types.h in the example
Patch series "kcov: PREEMPT_RT fixup + misc", v2.

The last patch in series is follow-up to address the PREEMPT_RT issue
within in kcov reported by Clark [1].  Patches 1-3 are smaller things that
I noticed while staring at it.  Patch 4 is small change which makes
replacement in #5 simpler / more obvious.

[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210809155909.333073de@theseus.lan

This patch (of 5):

The first example code has includes at the top, the following two
example share that part. The last example (remote coverage collection)
requires the linux/types.h header file due its __aligned_u64 usage.

Add the linux/types.h to the top most example and a comment that the
header files from above are required as it is done in the second
example.

5ff3b30ab5 kcov: collect coverage from interrupts
This change extends kcov remote coverage support to allow collecting
coverage from soft interrupts in addition to kernel background threads.

To collect coverage from code that is executed in softirq context, a part
of that code has to be annotated with kcov_remote_start/stop() in a
similar way as how it is done for global kernel background threads.  Then
the handle used for the annotations has to be passed to the
KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl.

Internally this patch adjusts the __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() compiler
inserted callback to not bail out when called from softirq context.
kcov_remote_start/stop() are updated to save/restore the current per task
kcov state in a per-cpu area (in case the softirq came when the kernel was
already collecting coverage in task context).  Coverage from softirqs is
collected into pre-allocated per-cpu areas, whose size is controlled by
the new CONFIG_KCOV_IRQ_AREA_SIZE.

a69b83e1ae kcov: fix struct layout for kcov_remote_arg
Make the layout of kcov_remote_arg the same for 32-bit and 64-bit code.
This makes it more convenient to write userspace apps that can be
compiled into 32-bit or 64-bit binaries and still work with the same
64-bit kernel.

Also use proper __u32 types in uapi headers instead of unsigned ints.

eec028c938 kcov: remote coverage support
Patch series " kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost", v3.

This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from backgound
kernel threads.  This extension requires custom annotations for each of
the places where coverage collection is desired.  This patchset
implements this for hub events in the USB subsystem and for 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.

Examples of other subsystems that might potentially benefit from this
when custom annotations are added (the list is based on
process_one_work() callers for bugs recently reported by syzbot):

1. fs: writeback wb_workfn() worker,
2. net: addrconf_dad_work()/addrconf_verify_work() workers,
3. net: neigh_periodic_work() worker,
4. net/p9: p9_write_work()/p9_read_work() workers,
5. block: blk_mq_run_work_fn() worker.

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

This patch (of 3):

Add background thread coverage collection ability to kcov.

With KCOV_ENABLE coverage is collected only for syscalls that are issued
from the current process.  With KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE it's possible to
collect coverage for arbitrary parts of the kernel code, provided that
those parts are annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().

This allows to collect coverage from two types of kernel background
threads: the global ones, that are spawned during kernel boot in a
limited number of instances (e.g.  one USB hub_event() worker thread is
spawned per USB HCD); and the local ones, that are spawned when a user
interacts with some kernel interface (e.g.  vhost workers).

To enable collecting coverage from a global background thread, a unique
global handle must be assigned and passed to the corresponding
kcov_remote_start() call.  Then a userspace process can pass a list of
such handles to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl in the handles array field
of the kcov_remote_arg struct.  This will attach the used kcov device to
the code sections, that are referenced by those handles.

Since there might be many local background threads spawned from
different userspace processes, we can't use a single global handle per
annotation.  Instead, the userspace process passes a non-zero handle
through the common_handle field of the kcov_remote_arg struct.  This
common handle gets saved to the kcov_handle field in the current
task_struct and needs to be passed to the newly spawned threads via
custom annotations.  Those threads should in turn be annotated with
kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().

Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers.  The top byte of a
handle is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs
to, and the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance
within that subsystem.  A reserved value 0 is used as a subsystem id for
common handles as they don't belong to a particular subsystem.  The
bytes 4-7 are currently reserved and must be zero.  In the future the
number of bytes used for the subsystem or handle ids might be increased.

When a particular userspace process collects coverage by via a common
handle, kcov will collect coverage for each code section that is
annotated to use the common handle obtained as kcov_handle from the
current task_struct.  However non common handles allow to collect
coverage selectively from different subsystems.
