2 config ARCH_HAS_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL
6 bool "Undefined behaviour sanity checker"
8 This option enables the Undefined Behaviour sanity checker.
9 Compile-time instrumentation is used to detect various undefined
10 behaviours at runtime. For more details, see:

16 bool "On Sanitizer warnings, abort the running kernel code"
17 depends on $(cc-option, -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error)
19 Building kernels with Sanitizer features enabled tends to grow
20 the kernel size by around 5%, due to adding all the debugging
21 text on failure paths. To avoid this, Sanitizer instrumentation
22 can just issue a trap. This reduces the kernel size overhead but
23 turns all warnings (including potentially harmless conditions)
24 into full exceptions that abort the running kernel code
25 (regardless of context, locks held, etc), which may destabilize
26 the system. For some system builders this is an acceptable

31 depends on CC_IS_CLANG
32 depends on !$(cc-option,-Werror=unused-command-line-argument -fsanitize=bounds -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc)
34 Some versions of clang support either UBSAN or KCOV but not the
35 combination of the two.

40 bool "Perform array index bounds checking"
42 depends on !UBSAN_KCOV_BROKEN
44 This option enables detection of directly indexed out of bounds
45 array accesses, where the array size is known at compile time.
46 Note that this does not protect array overflows via bad calls
47 to the {str,mem}*cpy() family of functions (that is addressed
48 by CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE).
50 config UBSAN_LOCAL_BOUNDS
51 bool "Perform array local bounds checking"
53 depends on CC_IS_CLANG
54 depends on !UBSAN_KCOV_BROKEN
56 This option enables -fsanitize=local-bounds which traps when an
57 exception/error is detected. Therefore, it should be enabled only
58 if trapping is expected.
59 Enabling this option detects errors due to accesses through a
60 pointer that is derived from an object of a statically-known size,
61 where an added offset (which may not be known statically) is
65 bool "Enable all other Undefined Behavior sanity checks"
68 This option enables all sanity checks that don't have their
69 own Kconfig options. Disable this if you only want to have
70 individually selected checks.
72 config UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL
73 bool "Enable instrumentation for the entire kernel"
74 depends on ARCH_HAS_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL
76 # We build with -Wno-maybe-uninitilzed, but we still want to
77 # use -Wmaybe-uninitilized in allmodconfig builds.
78 # So dependsy bellow used to disable this option in allmodconfig
79 depends on !COMPILE_TEST
82 This option activates instrumentation for the entire kernel.
83 If you don't enable this option, you have to explicitly specify
84 UBSAN_SANITIZE := y for the files/directories you want to check for UB.
85 Enabling this option will get kernel image size increased
88 config UBSAN_ALIGNMENT
89 bool "Enable checks for pointers alignment"
90 default !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
91 depends on !UBSAN_TRAP
93 This option enables the check of unaligned memory accesses.
94 Enabling this option on architectures that support unaligned
95 accesses may produce a lot of false positives.
98 tristate "Module for testing for undefined behavior detection"
101 This is a test module for UBSAN.
102 It triggers various undefined behavior, and detect it.
