Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 0/6] arm64: untag user pointers passed to the kernel
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2018 18:57:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1522169685.git.andreyknvl@google.com> (raw)

Hi!

arm64 has a feature called Top Byte Ignore, which allows to embed pointer
tags into the top byte of each pointer. Userspace programs (such as
HWASan, a memory debugging tool [1]) might use this feature and pass
tagged user pointers to the kernel through syscalls or other interfaces.

This patch makes a few of the kernel interfaces accept tagged user
pointers. The kernel is already able to handle user faults with tagged
pointers and has the untagged_addr macro, which this patchset reuses.

We're not trying to cover all possible ways the kernel accepts user
pointers in one patchset, so this one should be considered as a start.

Thanks!

[1] http://clang.llvm.org/docs/HardwareAssistedAddressSanitizerDesign.html

Changes in RFC v2:
- Added "#ifndef untagged_addr..." fallback in linux/uaccess.h instead of
  defining it for each arch individually.
- Updated Documentation/arm64/tagged-pointers.txt.
- Dropped “mm, arm64: untag user addresses in memory syscalls”.
- Rebased onto 3eb2ce82 (4.16-rc7).

Andrey Konovalov (6):
