I thought such struct shouldn't change layout.
If it is we need to fix include/linux/compiler-clang.h to do that
anon struct as well.
We considered that, but it looked to be very dependent on the version of
gcc used to build the kernel. But, this may be a simpler approach for
the shorter term.
why it would depend on version of gcc?
From what I can see, randomized_struct_fields_start is defined only for gcc
= 4.6. For older versions, it does not get mapped to an anonymous
structure. We may not care for older gcc versions, but..
The other issue was that __randomize_layout maps to __designated_init when
randstruct plugin is not enabled, which is in turn an attribute on gcc >=
v5.1, but not otherwise.
We just need this, no?

Yes, this is what we're testing with and is probably sufficient for our
purposes.
Just tested this with bcc. bcc actually complains. the rewriter
is not able to rewrite prev->pid where prev is "struct task_struct *prev".
I will change bcc rewriter to see whether the field value is correct or not.
Not sure my understanding is correct or not, but I am afraid that
the above approach for clang compiler change may not work.
If clang calculates the field offset based on header file, the offset
may not be the same as kernel one....
I verified that the drawf info with randomized structure config does not
match randomized structure member offset. Specifically, I tried
linux/proc_ns.h struct proc_ns_operations,
dwarf says:
field name: offset 0
field real_ns_name: offset 8
But if you print out the real offset at runtime, you get 40 and 16 respectively.
I am also trying to get it work with bcc as any python scripts that
access task_struct gives wrong output (task_switch.py, runqlen.py). I
recompiled my kernel (4.14-rc7 & bcc) with the patch.
I am seeing following error.
# ./task_switch.py

Are you also seeing the same issue or something else ?
