Daniel Axtens 3c5c3cfb9e kasan: support backing vmalloc space with real shadow memory
Patch series "kasan: support backing vmalloc space with real shadow
memory", v11.

Currently, vmalloc space is backed by the early shadow page.  This means
that kasan is incompatible with VMAP_STACK.

This series provides a mechanism to back vmalloc space with real,
dynamically allocated memory.  I have only wired up x86, because that's
the only currently supported arch I can work with easily, but it's very
easy to wire up other architectures, and it appears that there is some
work-in-progress code to do this on arm64 and s390.

This has been discussed before in the context of VMAP_STACK:
 - https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202009
 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/22/198
 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/19/822

In terms of implementation details:

Most mappings in vmalloc space are small, requiring less than a full
page of shadow space.  Allocating a full shadow page per mapping would
therefore be wasteful.  Furthermore, to ensure that different mappings
use different shadow pages, mappings would have to be aligned to
KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE * PAGE_SIZE.

Instead, share backing space across multiple mappings.  Allocate a
backing page when a mapping in vmalloc space uses a particular page of
the shadow region.  This page can be shared by other vmalloc mappings
later on.

We hook in to the vmap infrastructure to lazily clean up unused shadow
memory.

Testing with test_vmalloc.sh on an x86 VM with 2 vCPUs shows that:

 - Turning on KASAN, inline instrumentation, without vmalloc, introuduces
   a 4.1x-4.2x slowdown in vmalloc operations.

 - Turning this on introduces the following slowdowns over KASAN:
     * ~1.76x slower single-threaded (test_vmalloc.sh performance)
     * ~2.18x slower when both cpus are performing operations
       simultaneously (test_vmalloc.sh sequential_test_order=1)

This is unfortunate but given that this is a debug feature only, not the
end of the world.  The benchmarks are also a stress-test for the vmalloc
subsystem: they're not indicative of an overall 2x slowdown!

This patch (of 4):

Hook into vmalloc and vmap, and dynamically allocate real shadow memory
to back the mappings.

Most mappings in vmalloc space are small, requiring less than a full
page of shadow space.  Allocating a full shadow page per mapping would
therefore be wasteful.  Furthermore, to ensure that different mappings
use different shadow pages, mappings would have to be aligned to
KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE * PAGE_SIZE.

Instead, share backing space across multiple mappings.  Allocate a
backing page when a mapping in vmalloc space uses a particular page of
the shadow region.  This page can be shared by other vmalloc mappings
later on.

We hook in to the vmap infrastructure to lazily clean up unused shadow
memory.

To avoid the difficulties around swapping mappings around, this code
expects that the part of the shadow region that covers the vmalloc space
will not be covered by the early shadow page, but will be left unmapped.
This will require changes in arch-specific code.

This allows KASAN with VMAP_STACK, and may be helpful for architectures
that do not have a separate module space (e.g.  powerpc64, which I am
currently working on).  It also allows relaxing the module alignment
back to PAGE_SIZE.

Testing with test_vmalloc.sh on an x86 VM with 2 vCPUs shows that:

 - Turning on KASAN, inline instrumentation, without vmalloc, introuduces
   a 4.1x-4.2x slowdown in vmalloc operations.

 - Turning this on introduces the following slowdowns over KASAN:
     * ~1.76x slower single-threaded (test_vmalloc.sh performance)
     * ~2.18x slower when both cpus are performing operations
       simultaneously (test_vmalloc.sh sequential_test_order=3D1)

This is unfortunate but given that this is a debug feature only, not the
end of the world.

help
KASAN has two modes: generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan,
x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC) and
software tag-based KASAN (a version based on software memory
tagging, arm64 only, similar to userspace HWASan, enabled with
CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS).
Both generic and tag-based KASAN are strictly debugging features.

Enables generic KASAN mode.
Supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires version 4.9.2
or later for basic support and version 5.0 or later for detection of
out-of-bounds accesses for stack and global variables and for inline
instrumentation mode (CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE). With Clang it requires
version 3.7.0 or later and it doesn't support detection of
out-of-bounds accesses for global variables yet.
This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start
and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations.
The performance slowdown is ~x3.
For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.
Currently CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
(the resulting kernel does not boot).

Enables software tag-based KASAN mode.
This mode requires Top Byte Ignore support by the CPU and therefore
is only supported for arm64.
This mode requires Clang version 7.0.0 or later.
This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
pointer.
For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.
Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
(the resulting kernel does not boot).

much as inline does.

Compiler directly inserts code checking shadow memory before

Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build
with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of
the functionality.
This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang
to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow warnings,
but clang users can still enable it for builds without

By default, the shadow region for vmalloc space is the read-only

vmalloc space.
Enabling this option will hook in to vmap/vmalloc and back those
mappings with real shadow memory allocated on demand. This allows
for KASAN to detect more sorts of errors (and to support vmapped
stacks), but at the cost of higher memory usage.
