v6 cover khwasan: kernel hardware assisted address sanitizer

This patchset adds a new mode to KASAN [1], which is called KHWASAN (Kernel HardWare assisted Address SANitizer).

The plan is to implement HWASan [2] for the kernel with the incentive, that it's going to have comparable to KASAN performance, but in the same time consume much less memory, trading that off for somewhat imprecise bug detection and being supported only for arm64.

The overall idea of the approach used by KHWASAN is the following:

1. By using the Top Byte Ignore arm64 CPU feature, we can store pointer tags in the top byte of each kernel pointer.

2. Using shadow memory, we can store memory tags for each chunk of kernel memory.

3. On each memory allocation, we can generate a random tag, embed it into the returned pointer and set the memory tags that correspond to this chunk of memory to the same value.

4. By using compiler instrumentation, before each memory access we can add a check that the pointer tag matches the tag of the memory that is being accessed.

5. On a tag mismatch we report an error.

====== Rationale

On mobile devices KASAN's memory usage is significant problem. One of the main reasons to have KWHASAN is to be able to perform a similar set of checks that KASAN does, but with lower memory requirements.

Comment from Vishwath Mohan <[email protected]>:

I don't have data on-hand, but anecdotally both ASAN and KASAN have proven problematic to enable for environments that don't tolerate the increased memory pressure well. This includes,
(a) Low-memory form factors - Wear, TV, Things, lower-tier phones like Go,
(c) Connected components like Pixel's visual core [1].

These are both places I'd love to have a low(er) memory footprint option at my disposal.

Comment from Evgenii Stepanov <[email protected]>:

Looking at a live Android device under load, slab (according to /proc/meminfo) + kernel stack take 8-10% available RAM (~350MB). KASAN's overhead of 2x - 3x on top of it is not insignificant.

Not having this overhead enables near-production use - ex. running KASAN/KHWASAN kernel on a personal, daily-use device to catch bugs that do not reproduce in test configuration. These are the ones that often cost the most engineering time to track down.

CPU overhead is bad, but generally tolerable. RAM is critical, in our experience. Once it gets low enough, OOM-killer makes your life miserable.

====== Technical details

KHWASAN is implemented in a very similar way to KASAN. This patchset essentially does the following:

1. TCR_TBI1 is set to enable Top Byte Ignore.

2. Shadow memory is used (with a different scale, 1:16, so each shadow byte corresponds to 16 bytes of kernel memory) to store memory tags.

3. All slab objects are aligned to shadow scale, which is 16 bytes.

4. All pointers returned from the slab allocator are tagged with a random tag and the corresponding shadow memory is poisoned with the same value.

5. Compiler instrumentation is used to insert tag checks. Either by calling callbacks or by inlining them (CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE flags are reused).

6. When a tag mismatch is detected in callback instrumentation mode KHWASAN simply prints a bug report. In case of inline instrumentation, clang inserts a brk instruction, and KHWASAN has it's own brk handler, which reports the bug.

7. The memory in between slab objects is marked with a reserved tag, and acts as a redzone.

8. When a slab object is freed it's marked with a reserved tag.

Bug detection is imprecise for two reasons:

1. We won't catch some small out-of-bounds accesses, that fall into the same shadow cell, as the last byte of a slab object.

2. We only have 1 byte to store tags, which means we have a 1/256 probability of a tag match for an incorrect access (actually even slightly less due to reserved tag values).

Despite that there's a particular type of bugs that KHWASAN can detect compared to KASAN: use-after-free after the object has been allocated by someone else.

====== Testing

Some kernel developers voiced a concern that changing the top byte of kernel pointers may lead to subtle bugs that are difficult to discover. To address this concern deliberate testing has been performed.

It doesn't seem feasible to do some kind of static checking to find potential issues with pointer tagging, so a dynamic approach was taken. All pointer comparisons/subtractions have been instrumented in an LLVM compiler pass and a kernel module that would print a bug report whenever two pointers with different tags are being compared/subtracted (ignoring comparisons with NULL pointers and with pointers obtained by casting an error code to a pointer type) has been used. Then the kernel has been booted in QEMU and on an Odroid C2 board and syzkaller has been run.

This yielded the following results.

The two places that look interesting are:

is_vmalloc_addr in include/linux/mm.h
is_kernel_rodata in mm/util.c

Here we compare a pointer with some fixed untagged values to make sure that the pointer lies in a particular part of the kernel address space. Since KWHASAN doesn't add tags to pointers that belong to rodata or vmalloc regions, this should work as is. To make sure debug checks to those two functions that check that the result doesn't change whether we operate on pointers with or without untagging has been added.

A few other cases that don't look that interesting:

Comparing pointers to achieve unique sorting order of pointee objects (e.g. sorting locks addresses before performing a double lock):

tty_ldisc_lock_pair_timeout in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c pipe_double_lock in fs/pipe.c unix_state_double_lock in net/unix/af_unix.c lock_two_nondirectories in fs/inode.c mutex_lock_double in kernel/events/core.c

ep_cmp_ffd in fs/eventpoll.c
fsnotify_compare_groups fs/notify/mark.c

Nothing needs to be done here, since the tags embedded into pointers don't change, so the sorting order would still be unique.

Checks that a pointer belongs to some particular allocation:

is_sibling_entry in lib/radix-tree.c object_is_on_stack in include/linux/sched/task_stack.h

Nothing needs to be done here either, since two pointers can only belong to the same allocation if they have the same tag.

Overall, since the kernel boots and works, there are no critical bugs. As for the rest, the traditional kernel testing way (use until fails) is the only one that looks feasible.

Another point here is that KWHASAN is available under a separate config option that needs to be deliberately enabled. Even though it might be used in a "near-production" environment to find bugs that are not found during fuzzing or running tests, it is still a debug tool.

====== Benchmarks

The following numbers were collected on Odroid C2 board. Both KASAN and KHWASAN were used in inline instrumentation mode.

Boot time [1]:
* ~1.7 sec for clean kernel
* ~5.0 sec for KASAN
* ~5.0 sec for KHWASAN

Network performance [2]:
* 8.33 Gbits/sec for clean kernel
* 3.17 Gbits/sec for KASAN
* 2.85 Gbits/sec for KHWASAN

Slab memory usage after boot [3]:
* ~40 kb for clean kernel
* ~105 kb (~260% overhead) for KASAN
* ~47 kb (~20% overhead) for KHWASAN

KASAN memory overhead consists of three main parts:
1. Increased slab memory usage due to redzones.
2. Shadow memory (the whole reserved once during boot).
3. Quaratine (grows gradually until some preset limit; the more the limit, the more the chance to detect a use-after-free).

Comparing KWHASAN vs KASAN for each of these points:
1. 20% vs 260% overhead.
2. 1/16th vs 1/8th of physical memory.
3. KHWASAN doesn't require quarantine.

[1] Time before the ext4 driver is initialized.
[2] Measured as iperf -s & iperf -c 127.0.0.1 -t 30.
[3] Measured as cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab.

====== Some notes

A few notes:

1. The patchset can be found here:
https://github.com/xairy/kasan-prototype/tree/khwasan

2. Building requires a recent LLVM version (r330044 or later).

3. Stack instrumentation is not supported yet and will be added later.

PATCH v6 1/18 khwasan, mm: change kasan hooks signatures

KHWASAN will change the value of the top byte of pointers returned from the kernel allocation functions (such as kmalloc). This patch updates KASAN hooks signatures and their usage in SLAB and SLUB code to reflect that.

PATCH v6 2/18 khwasan: move common kasan and khwasan code to common.c

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

KHWASAN will reuse a significant part of KASAN code, so move the common parts to common.c without any functional changes.

PATCH v6 3/18 khwasan: add CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic software-only KASAN version (the one that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_HW, that enables KHWASAN.

With CONFIG_KASAN_HW enabled, compiler options are changed to instrument kernel files wiht -fsantize=hwaddress (except the ones for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).

Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW support both CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.

This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of KHWASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts common hooks implementation to compile correctly with each of the config options.

Re: [PATCH v6 03/18] khwasan: add CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW

Quoted 49 lines · Andrey Konovalov

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic software-only KASAN version (the one that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_HW, that enables KHWASAN.

With CONFIG_KASAN_HW enabled, compiler options are changed to instrument kernel files wiht -fsantize=hwaddress (except the ones for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).

Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW support both CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.

This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of KHWASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts common hooks implementation to compile correctly with each of the config options.

It seems that it would be better to have just 1 attribute for both types. Currently __no_sanitize_address is used just in a single place. But if it ever used more, people will need to always spell both which looks unnecessary, or, worse will only fix asan but forget about khwasan.

If we do just:

#define __no_sanitize_address __attribute__((no_sanitize("address", "hwaddress")))

Then we don't need any changes in compiler-gcc.h nor in compiler.h, and no chance or forgetting one of them.

+         KASAN has two modes: KASAN (a classic version, similar to userspace

In these few sentences we call the old mode with 3 different terms:
"generic", "classic" and "KASAN" :)
This is somewhat confusing. Let's call it "generic" throughout (here and in the docs patch). "Generic" as in "supported on multiple arch and not-dependent on hardware features". "Classic" makes sense for people who knew KASAN before, but for future readers in won't make sense.

Re: [PATCH v6 03/18] khwasan: add CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW

Quoted 213 lines · Dmitry Vyukov
Quoted 49 lines · Andrey Konovalov

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic software-only KASAN version (the one that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_HW, that enables KHWASAN.

With CONFIG_KASAN_HW enabled, compiler options are changed to instrument kernel files wiht -fsantize=hwaddress (except the ones for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).

Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_HW support both CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.

This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of KHWASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts common hooks implementation to compile correctly with each of the config options.

It seems that it would be better to have just 1 attribute for both types. Currently __no_sanitize_address is used just in a single place. But if it ever used more, people will need to always spell both which looks unnecessary, or, worse will only fix asan but forget about khwasan.

If we do just:

#define __no_sanitize_address __attribute__((no_sanitize("address", "hwaddress")))

Then we don't need any changes in compiler-gcc.h nor in compiler.h, and no chance or forgetting one of them.

This is somewhat confusing. Let's call it "generic" throughout (here and in the docs patch). "Generic" as in "supported on multiple arch and not-dependent on hardware features". "Classic" makes sense for people who knew KASAN before, but for future readers in won't make sense.

It seems that it would be better to have just 1 attribute for both types. Currently __no_sanitize_address is used just in a single place. But if it ever used more, people will need to always spell both which looks unnecessary, or, worse will only fix asan but forget about khwasan.

Quoted 7 lines

If we do just:

#define __no_sanitize_address __attribute__((no_sanitize("address", "hwaddress")))

Then we don't need any changes in compiler-gcc.h nor in compiler.h, and no chance or forgetting one of them.

Will do in v7.

In these few sentences we call the old mode with 3 different terms:
"generic", "classic" and "KASAN" :)
This is somewhat confusing. Let's call it "generic" throughout (here and in the docs patch). "Generic" as in "supported on multiple arch and not-dependent on hardware features". "Classic" makes sense for people who knew KASAN before, but for future readers in won't make sense.

Will use "generic" in v7.

PATCH v6 4/18 khwasan, arm64: adjust shadow size for CONFIG_KASAN_HW

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

KWHASAN uses 1 shadow byte for 16 bytes of kernel memory, so it requires 1/16th of the kernel virtual address space for the shadow memory.

This commit sets KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT to 4 when KHWASAN is enabled.

PATCH v6 5/18 khwasan: initialize shadow to 0xff

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

A KHWASAN shadow memory cell contains a memory tag, that corresponds to the tag in the top byte of the pointer, that points to that memory. The native top byte value of kernel pointers is 0xff, so with KHWASAN we need to initialize shadow memory to 0xff. This commit does that.

PATCH v6 6/18 khwasan, arm64: untag virt address in __kimg_to_phys and _virt_addr_is_linear

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

__kimg_to_phys (which is used by virt_to_phys) and _virt_addr_is_linear (which is used by virt_addr_valid) assume that the top byte of the address is 0xff, which isn't always the case with KHWASAN enabled.

The solution is to reset the tag in those macros.

Wouldn't it be better to

when CONFIG_KASAN_HW is not enabled, and then not duplicate the macros below? That's what we do in kasan.h for all hooks.
I see that a subsequent patch duplicates yet another macro in this file. While we could use:

It also seems that we do preset tag for slab multiple times (from slab_get_obj()). Using kasan_init_slab_obj() should resolve this too (hopefully we don't call it multiple times).

The issue is that SLAB stores freelist as an array of indexes instead of using an actual linked list like SLUB. So you can't store the tag in the pointer while the object is in the freelist, since there's no pointer. And, technically, we don't preset tags for SLAB, we just use the id as the tag every time a pointer is used, so perhaps we should rename the callback. As to unifying the callbacks, sure, we can do that.

As per offline discussion: potentially we can use kasan_init_slab_obj() if we add tag in kmalloc hook by using obj_to_idx().

PATCH v6 8/18 khwasan: preassign tags to objects with ctors or SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

An object constructor can initialize pointers within this objects based on the address of the object. Since the object address might be tagged, we need to assign a tag before calling constructor.

The implemented approach is to assign tags to objects with constructors when a slab is allocated and call constructors once as usual. The downside is that such object would always have the same tag when it is reallocated, so we won't catch use-after-frees on it.

Also pressign tags for objects from SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches, since they can be validy accessed after having been freed.

Re: [PATCH v6 08/18] khwasan: preassign tags to objects with ctors or SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU

For the slab pieces

Quoted 66 lines · Andrey Konovalov

An object constructor can initialize pointers within this objects based on the address of the object. Since the object address might be tagged, we need to assign a tag before calling constructor.

The implemented approach is to assign tags to objects with constructors when a slab is allocated and call constructors once as usual. The downside is that such object would always have the same tag when it is reallocated, so we won't catch use-after-frees on it.

Also pressign tags for objects from SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches, since they can be validy accessed after having been freed.

show_pte in arm64 fault handling relies on the fact that the top byte of a kernel pointer is 0xff, which isn't always the case with KHWASAN enabled. Reset the top byte.

PATCH v6 11/18 khwasan, mm: perform untagged pointers comparison in krealloc

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

The krealloc function checks where the same buffer was reused or a new one allocated by comparing kernel pointers. KHWASAN changes memory tag on the krealloc'ed chunk of memory and therefore also changes the pointer tag of the returned pointer. Therefore we need to perform comparison on untagged (with tags reset) pointers to check whether it's the same memory region or not.

PATCH v6 13/18 khwasan: add bug reporting routines

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

This commit adds rountines, that print KHWASAN error reports. Those are quite similar to KASAN, the difference is:

1. The way KHWASAN finds the first bad shadow cell (with a mismatching tag). KHWASAN compares memory tags from the shadow memory to the pointer tag.

2. KHWASAN reports all bugs with the "KASAN: invalid-access" header. This is done, so various external tools that already parse the kernel logs looking for KASAN reports wouldn't need to be changed.

2. KHWASAN reports all bugs with the "KASAN: invalid-access" header. This is done, so various external tools that already parse the kernel logs looking for KASAN reports wouldn't need to be changed.

PATCH v6 14/18 khwasan: add hooks implementation

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

This commit adds KHWASAN specific hooks implementation and adjusts common KASAN and KHWASAN ones.

1. When a new slab cache is created, KHWASAN rounds up the size of the objects in this cache to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE (== 16).

2. On each kmalloc KHWASAN generates a random tag, sets the shadow memory, that corresponds to this object to this tag, and embeds this tag value into the top byte of the returned pointer.

3. On each kfree KHWASAN poisons the shadow memory with a random tag to allow detection of use-after-free bugs.

The rest of the logic of the hook implementation is very much similar to the one provided by KASAN. KHWASAN saves allocation and free stack metadata to the slab object the same was KASAN does this.

Re: [PATCH v6 14/18] khwasan: add hooks implementation

Quoted 39 lines · Andrey Konovalov

This commit adds KHWASAN specific hooks implementation and adjusts common KASAN and KHWASAN ones.

1. When a new slab cache is created, KHWASAN rounds up the size of the objects in this cache to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE (== 16).

2. On each kmalloc KHWASAN generates a random tag, sets the shadow memory, that corresponds to this object to this tag, and embeds this tag value into the top byte of the returned pointer.

3. On each kfree KHWASAN poisons the shadow memory with a random tag to allow detection of use-after-free bugs.

The rest of the logic of the hook implementation is very much similar to the one provided by KASAN. KHWASAN saves allocation and free stack metadata to the slab object the same was KASAN does this.

The comment is not super-useful. It would be more useful to say why we need to do this.
Most callers explicitly untag pointer passed to this function, for some it's unclear if the pointer contains tag or not.
For example, __hwasan_tag_memory -- what does it accept? Tagged or untagged?

It seems that this function is just different for kasan and khwasan. Currently for kasan we have:

kasan_poison_shadow(address, size, tag);

if (size & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK) {
        u8 *shadow = (u8 *)kasan_mem_to_shadow(address + size);
        *shadow = size & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK;
}

But what we want to say for khwasan is:

kasan_poison_shadow(address, round_up(size, KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE), get_tag(address));

Not sure if we want to keep a common implementation or just have separate implementations...

 }

It seems that this function is just different for kasan and khwasan. Currently for kasan we have:

kasan_poison_shadow(address, size, tag);

if (size & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK) {
        u8 *shadow = (u8 *)kasan_mem_to_shadow(address + size);
        *shadow = size & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK;
}
Quoted 7 lines

But what we want to say for khwasan is:

kasan_poison_shadow(address, round_up(size, KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE), get_tag(address));

Not sure if we want to keep a common implementation or just have separate implementations...

As per offline discussion leaving as is.

PATCH v6 15/18 khwasan, arm64: add brk handler for inline instrumentation

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

KHWASAN inline instrumentation mode (which embeds checks of shadow memory into the generated code, instead of inserting a callback) generates a brk instruction when a tag mismatch is detected.

This commit add a KHWASAN brk handler, that decodes the immediate value passed to the brk instructions (to extract information about the memory access that triggered the mismatch), reads the register values (x0 contains the guilty address) and reports the bug.

We skip BRK and resume execution. What is the problem?

When the kernel is compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress without any additional flags (like it's done now with KASAN_HW) everything works as you described and there's no problem. However if one were to recompile the kernel with hwasan recovery disabled, KHWASAN wouldn't work due to the reasons described in the comment. Should I make it more clear?

Why die and not panic? Die seems to be much less used function, and it calls panic anyway, and we call panic in kasan_report if panic_on_warn is set.

Why die and not panic? Die seems to be much less used function, and it calls panic anyway, and we call panic in kasan_report if panic_on_warn is set.

die() is vaguely equivalent to BUG(); die() and BUG() normally only terminate the current process, which may or may not leave the system somewhat usable, while panic() always brings down the whole system. AFAIK panic() shouldn't be used unless you're in some very low-level code where you know that trying to just kill the current process can't work and the entire system is broken beyond repair.

If KASAN traps on some random memory access, there's a good chance that just killing the current process will allow at least parts of the system to continue. I'm not sure whether BUG() or die() is more appropriate here, but I think it definitely should not be a panic().

die() has arch specific implementations, so looking at:

arch/arm64/kernel/traps.c:196#die

it looks like panic is invoked if in_interrupt() or panic_on_oops(), which is a configure option. So maybe the config for KHWASAN should also enable that? Otherwise seems easy to forget. But maybe that should remain configurable separately?

Looking at the kernel configs for the Pixel 2, it does seem like CONFIG_PANIC_ON_OOPS=y is already enabled.

Specifically to catch problems on Android, our internal debug builds can report on panics, but not oops, IIUC.

In the upstream kernel, it is desirable to be able to discover bugs and debug them from inside the running system. When you detect a bug that makes it impossible for the current task to continue safely, you're supposed to use something like BUG() to terminate the task; if you can continue safely, you're supposed to use WARN(). Either way, you should *not* just shoot down the whole kernel unless the system is corrupted so badly that trying to keep running would be pointless.

You can configure the kernel such that it crashes the device when such an event occurs, and doing so can sometimes be beneficial; but please don't hardcode such policies into the upstream kernel.

PATCH v6 16/18 khwasan, mm, arm64: tag non slab memory allocated via pagealloc

In reply to Andrey Konovalov

KWHASAN doesn't check memory accesses through pointers tagged with 0xff. When page_address is used to get pointer to memory that corresponds to some page, the tag of the resulting pointer gets set to 0xff, even though the allocated memory might have been tagged differently.

For slab pages it's impossible to recover the correct tag to return from page_address, since the page might contain multiple slab objects tagged with different values, and we can't know in advance which one of them is going to get accessed. For non slab pages however, we can recover the tag in page_address, since the whole page was marked with the same tag.

This patch adds tagging to non slab memory allocated with pagealloc. To set the tag of the pointer returned from page_address, the tag gets stored to page->flags when the memory gets allocated.

 GCC 5.0 has possibility to perform inline instrumentation. Instead of making
 function calls GCC directly inserts the code to check the shadow memory.
 This option significantly enlarges kernel but it gives x1.1-x2 performance
 boost over outline instrumented kernel.
+
+KHWASAN
+~~~~~~~
+
+KHWASAN uses the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature of modern arm64 CPUs to store
+a pointer tag in the top byte of kernel pointers. KHWASAN also uses shadow
+memory to store memory tags associated with each 16-byte memory cell (therefore
+it dedicates 1/16th of the kernel memory for shadow memory).
+
+On each memory allocation KHWASAN generates a random tag, tags allocated memory
+with this tag, and embeds this tag into the returned pointer. KHWASAN uses
+compile-time instrumentation to insert checks before each memory access. These
+checks make sure that tag of the memory that is being accessed is equal to tag
+of the pointer that is used to access this memory. In case of a tag mismatch
+KHWASAN prints a bug report.
+
+KHWASAN also has two instrumentation modes (outline, that emits callbacks to
+check memory accesses; and inline, that performs the shadow memory checks
+inline). With outline instrumentation mode, a bug report is simply printed
+from the function that performs the access check. With inline instrumentation
+a brk instruction is emitted by the compiler, and a dedicated brk handler is
+used to print KHWASAN reports.

 GCC 5.0 has possibility to perform inline instrumentation. Instead of making
 function calls GCC directly inserts the code to check the shadow memory.
 This option significantly enlarges kernel but it gives x1.1-x2 performance
 boost over outline instrumented kernel.
+
+KHWASAN
+~~~~~~~
+
+KHWASAN uses the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature of modern arm64 CPUs to store
+a pointer tag in the top byte of kernel pointers. KHWASAN also uses shadow
+memory to store memory tags associated with each 16-byte memory cell (therefore
+it dedicates 1/16th of the kernel memory for shadow memory).
+
+On each memory allocation KHWASAN generates a random tag, tags allocated memory
+with this tag, and embeds this tag into the returned pointer. KHWASAN uses
+compile-time instrumentation to insert checks before each memory access. These
+checks make sure that tag of the memory that is being accessed is equal to tag
+of the pointer that is used to access this memory. In case of a tag mismatch
+KHWASAN prints a bug report.
+
+KHWASAN also has two instrumentation modes (outline, that emits callbacks to
+check memory accesses; and inline, that performs the shadow memory checks
+inline). With outline instrumentation mode, a bug report is simply printed
+from the function that performs the access check. With inline instrumentation
+a brk instruction is emitted by the compiler, and a dedicated brk handler is
+used to print KHWASAN reports.

This patchset adds a new mode to KASAN [1], which is called KHWASAN (Kernel HardWare assisted Address SANitizer).

We're at v6 and there are no reviewed-by's or acked-by's to be seen. Is that a fair commentary on what has been happening, or have people been remiss in sending and gathering such things?

I'm anxious to use these for Pixel Android devices. Looks like the series has been aggregating changes from valuable feedback. Maybe if the ARM maintainers and KASAN maintainers could Ack or Nack these, we could decide to merge these or what needs more work?

I still have concerns about the consequences of merging this as anything other than a debug option [1]. Unfortunately, merging it as a debug option defeats the whole point, so I think we need to spend more effort on developing tools that can help us to find and fix the subtle bugs which will arise from enabling tagged pointers in the kernel.

I totally don't mind calling it a debug option. Do I need to somehow specify it somewhere?

Why does it defeat the point? The point is to ease KASAN-like testing on devices with limited memory.

I don't disagree with using it strictly for debug. When I say I want the series for Pixel phones, I should have been clearer that my intent is for a limited pool of internal testers to walk around with KHWASAN enabled devices; not general end users. It's hard enough today to get anyone to test KASAN/ASAN on their "daily driver" due to the memory usage and resulting performance.

We don't ship KASAN or KUBSAN on by default to end users (nor plan to); it's used strictly for fuzzing through syzkaller (or by brave "dogfooders" on the internal kernel teams). KHWASAN would let these dogfooders go from being brave to fearless.

Ok, sorry, I completely misunderstood you earlier on then! For some reason I thought you wanted this on by default.

In which case, I'm ok with the overall idea as long as we make the caveats clear in the Kconfig text. In particular, that enabling this option may introduce problems relating to pointer casting and comparison, but can offer better coverage and lower memory consumption than a fully software-based KASAN solution.

Great! I'll explicitly call it debug feature and mention the caveats in v7. Thanks!
