2016-06-07Add sancov pluginEmese Revfy
The sancov gcc plugin inserts a __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() call at the start of basic blocks. This plugin is a helper plugin for the kcov feature. It supports all gcc versions with plugin support (from gcc-4.5 on). It is based on the gcc commit "Add fuzzing coverage support" by Dmitry Vyukov (https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc?limit_changes=0&view=revision&revision=231296).

2016-06-07Add Cyclomatic complexity GCC pluginEmese Revfy
Add a very simple plugin to demonstrate the GCC plugin infrastructure. This GCC plugin computes the cyclomatic complexity of each function. The complexity M of a function's control flow graph is defined as: M = E - N + 2P where E = the number of edges N = the number of nodes P = the number of connected components (exit nodes).

2016-06-07GCC plugin infrastructureEmese Revfy
This patch allows to build the whole kernel with GCC plugins. It was ported from grsecurity/PaX. The infrastructure supports building out-of-tree modules and building in a separate directory. Cross-compilation is supported too. Currently the x86, arm, arm64 and uml architectures enable plugins. The directory of the gcc plugins is scripts/gcc-plugins. You can use a file or a directory there. The plugins compile with these options: * -fno-rtti: gcc is compiled with this option so the plugins must use it too * -fno-exceptions: this is inherited from gcc too * -fasynchronous-unwind-tables: this is inherited from gcc too * -ggdb: it is useful for debugging a plugin (better backtrace on internal errors) * -Wno-narrowing: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (ipa-utils.h) * -Wno-unused-variable: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (gcc_version variable, plugin-version.h) The infrastructure introduces a new Makefile target called gcc-plugins. It supports all gcc versions from 4.5 to 6.0. The scripts/gcc-plugin.sh script chooses the proper host compiler (gcc-4.7 can be built by either gcc or g++). This script also checks the availability of the included headers in scripts/gcc-plugins/gcc-common.h. The gcc-common.h header contains frequently included headers for GCC plugins and it has a compatibility layer for the supported gcc versions. The gcc-generate-*-pass.h headers automatically generate the registration structures for GIMPLE, SIMPLE_IPA, IPA and RTL passes. Note that 'make clean' keeps the *.so files (only the distclean or mrproper targets clean all) because they are needed for out-of-tree modules. Based on work created by the PaX Team.
