RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2022-11-24 13:35:14 UTC

Description of problem:

Attempting to test if mdevctl binaries were properly built with stack protection via -fstack-protector-strong yields info: Written in a language other than C/C++/Go/Rust.

But the source looks like Rust, and the package was built with rustc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

annobin-annocheck-10.54-2.el9.x86_64
mdevctl-1.1.0-4.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:

Deterministic.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install -y annobin-annocheck mdevctl
2. dnf -y --nogpgcheck debuginfo-install mdevctl
3. rpm -ql mdevctl | grep -E '/usr/s?bin/' | while read f ; do test -L $f || echo $f ; done | xargs -- annocheck --verbose --skip-all --test-stack-prot

Actual results:

annocheck: Version 10.54.
Hardened: /usr/sbin/mdevctl: info: Written in a language other than C/C++/Go/Rust.
Hardened: /usr/sbin/mdevctl: info: Command line options not recorded in DWARF DW_AT_producer variable.
Hardened: /usr/sbin/mdevctl: skip: stack-prot test because not compiled C/C++ code 
Hardened: /usr/sbin/mdevctl: Overall: PASS.

Expected results:

If annocheck understands C, C++, Go, and Rust, it should recognize this binary as built from Rust source.

Hardened: /usr/bin/rustfmt: Overall: PASS.

Investigating....

Comment 3 Nick Clifton 2022-11-28 16:54:55 UTC

This looks like a duplicate of:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057737

Essentially what is happening is that annocheck was built in an environment that does not know about the DWARF value used to identify Rust binaries.  So it displays the message shown.

The problem was fixed with annobin 10.58, so using that version, or a later one, should solve the problem.  

Note - whilst RHEL 9.0 uses annobin 10.54, RHEL 9.1 will use annobin 10.73

Comment 4 Nick Clifton 2022-11-28 17:06:10 UTC

Oh and GTS 9.1 uses annobin 10.76, so it should be OK as well.

Doh - I meant GTS 12 for RHEL 9.1....

Thanks Jan, closing.
