Here is the patch set for the 4.17-rc1 merge window. This set represents improvements to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script. The major improvement is that with this set applied the script actually runs in a reasonable amount of time (less than a minute on a standard stock Ubuntu user desktop). Also, we have a second maintainer now and a tree hosted on kernel.org We do a few code clean ups. We fix the command help output. Handling of the vsyscall address range is fixed to check the whole range instead of just the start/end addresses. We add support for 5 page table levels (suggested on LKML). We use a system command to get the machine architecture instead of using Perl. Calling this command for every regex comparison is what previously choked the script, caching the result of this call gave the major speed improvement. We add support for scanning 32-bit kernels using the user/kernel memory split. Path skipping code refactored and simplified (meaning easier script configuration). We remove version numbering. We add a variable name to improve readability of a regex and finally we check filenames for leaking addresses. Currently script scans /proc/PID for all PID. With this set applied we only scan for PID==1. It was observed that on an idle system files under /proc/PID are predominantly the same for all processes. Also it was noted that the script does not scan _all_ the kernel since it only scans active processes. Scanning only for PID==1 makes explicit the inherent flaw in the script that the scan is only partial and also speeds things up. Signed-off-by: Tobin C.
