When running a kernel with Clang's Control Flow Integrity implemented,
there is a violation that happens when accessing
/sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile:
$ cat /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile

When /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile is read, sysfs_kf_seq_show is called,
which in turn calls kobj_attr_show, which gets the ->show callback
member by calling container_of on attr (casting it to struct
kobj_attribute) then calls it.
There is a CFI violation because pm_profile_attr is of type
struct device_attribute but kobj_attr_show calls ->show expecting it
to be from struct kobj_attribute. CFI checking ensures that function
pointer types match when doing indirect calls. Fix pm_profile_attr to
be defined in terms of kobj_attribute so there is no violation or
mismatch.

My mind absolutely rebelled at how this could not have been caught
at compile time nor runtime already. Everything appears to be wrong
here. It's a different structure, it's getting assigned, it's getting
called! And then I went looking and started to scream. Apologies if this
investigation is redundant to a thread I didn't see...
First, __ATTR(), like most static initializer macros, is not typed.
Normally this is okay because different structures have different
members, so it wouldn't compile. But not in this case here. Everything
assigned by __ATTR exists in both because ... they have an identical set
of structure member names:
struct device_attribute {
struct attribute attr;
ssize_t (*show)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
char *buf);
ssize_t (*store)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
const char *buf, size_t count);
};
struct kobj_attribute {
struct attribute attr;
ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_attribute *attr,
char *buf);
ssize_t (*store)(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_attribute *attr,
const char *buf, size_t count);
};
But the show and store are different prototypes, so surely any variable
assignments or argument passing would catch the mismatch. But no!
The sysfs API only takes the .attr member address:
result = sysfs_create_file(acpi_kobj, &pm_profile_attr.attr);
and, of course, that doesn't break because both struct device_attribute
and struct kobj_attribute do, in fact, use the same structure for their
.attr (struct attribute).
But here's the kicker:
static ssize_t kobj_attr_show(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr,
char *buf)
{
struct kobj_attribute *kattr;
ssize_t ret = -EIO;
kattr = container_of(attr, struct kobj_attribute, attr);
if (kattr->show)
ret = kattr->show(kobj, kattr, buf);
...
A container_of() is used to calculate the offset. This doesn't explode
(normally) at runtime because, as established, these structures have the
same layout, so .show is in the same place.
Some thoughts that I am terrified to check or attempt, but I can't help
myself:
1) Is __ATTR() regularly used to perform cross-structure initialization?
Answer appears to be "yes":
include/linux/device.h: struct device_attribute dev_attr_##_name = __ATTR_WO(_name)
include/linux/device/bus.h: struct bus_attribute bus_attr_##_name = __ATTR_RW(_name)
2) Should static initializer macros be typed to catch bad cross-type
assignments? (Which depends on "1" being "no".)
Changing this looks very hard, but it does make me wonder about doing
stuff like this for static initializer macros:
-#define __ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store) { \
+#define __ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store) (struct kobject *) { \
Obviously not possible here, though.
3) This cannot possibly be the only case of this. Given the answer to
#1, this bug must be endemic.
static inline int __must_check sysfs_create_file(struct kobject *kobj,
const struct attribute *attr)
{
return sysfs_create_file_ns(kobj, attr, NULL);
}
$ git grep 'sysfs_create_file.*, &.*\.attr' | wc -l
51
16 appear to actually be kobj_attribute. Those are fine.
Similar to the patch above, 9 more are from DEVICE_ATTR() (named
"dev_attr_$foo):
#define DEVICE_ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store) \
struct device_attribute dev_attr_##_name = __ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store)
And a here are a bunch more macro-based ones:
class_attr is struct class_attribute
mdev_type_attr is struct mdev_type_attribute
format_attr is half struct device_attribute and half struct kobj_attribute:
arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c:static struct device_attribute format_attr_##_dev##_name = __ATTR_RO(_dev);
arch/x86/events/intel/cstate.c:static struct kobj_attribute format_attr_##_var = \
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.h:static struct kobj_attribute format_attr_##_var = \
arch/x86/events/rapl.c:static struct kobj_attribute format_attr_##_var = \
drivers/perf/thunderx2_pmu.c:static struct device_attribute format_attr_##_var = \
include/linux/perf_event.h:static struct device_attribute format_attr_##_name = __ATTR_RO(_name)
These 2 are also not kobj_attribute:
include/linux/module.h:extern struct module_attribute module_uevent;
kernel/module.c:struct module_attribute module_uevent =
I think all of these non-kobj_attribute cases will trip CFI too, and
this design pattern appears to be intentional. So that will be fun! :)
I haven't gone through all of the 51 carefully, but this looks like a
much larger problem than just this one place. :(

Yes, I was rather shocked as well... There was no prior discussion to
this patch, just something that was reported to me (the initial
reproducer was 'grep -irl uname /sys').

Yes, this is all what I noticed as well (and tried to summarize in my
commit message, hopefully it made sense).

Yikes... :/ that is going to be fun to fully uncover. I am interested in
seeing which ones I can get to trigger on real hardware.
Thanks for the full analysis, I should have probably added some more
myself.
