Exercise the end-to-end build and trap infrastructure in the kernel for
__ob_trap, __ob_wrap, and associated sanitizer ignore patterns (i.e. idiom
exclusions). Add a test for each of the basic overflow conditions under
CONFIG_OVERFLOW_BEHAVIOR_TYPES=y, as well as the corner cases associated
with promotion, casting, etc.
For example, executing this test with CONFIG_OVERFLOW_BEHAVIOR_TYPES_WARN=y
(instead of CONFIG_OVERFLOW_BEHAVIOR_TYPES_TRAP=y), will show:
$ echo OBT_ASSIGN_TRUNCATE_TO | cat >/sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
$ dmesg
...
lkdtm: Performing direct entry OBT_ASSIGN_TRUNCATE_TO
UBSAN: implicit-conversion in ../drivers/misc/lkdtm/bugs.c:825:10
cannot represent 'int' value 2147483647 during reference binding to 'u8t' (aka '__ob_trap u8'), truncated to 255
