[PATCH v3 0/5] arm64: kasan: support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC

[PATCH v3 0/5] arm64: kasan: support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC

[Lecopzer Chen]

Linux supports KAsan for VMALLOC since commit 3c5c3cfb9ef4da9
("kasan: support backing vmalloc space with real shadow memory")

Acroding to how x86 ported it [1], they early allocated p4d and pgd,
but in arm64 I just simulate how KAsan supports MODULES_VADDR in arm64
by not to populate the vmalloc area except for kimg address.

  -----------  vmalloc_shadow_start
 |           |
 |           | 
 |           | <= non-mapping
 |           |
 |           |

 |00000000000|
 |00000000000| <= Zero shadow
 |00000000000|

Test environment:
    4G and 8G Qemu virt, 
    39-bit VA + 4k PAGE_SIZE with 3-level page table,
    test by lib/test_kasan.ko and lib/test_kasan_module.ko

It works in Kaslr with CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL
and randomize module region inside vmalloc area.

Also work with VMAP_STACK, thanks Ard for testing it.

Thanks Will Deacon, Ard Biesheuvel and Andrey Konovalov
for reviewing and suggestion.

v3 -> v2
rebase on 5.11-rc6
	1. remove always true condition in kasan_init() and remove unsed
	   vmalloc_shadow_start.
	2. select KASAN_VMALLOC if KANSAN_GENERIC is enabled
	   for VMAP_STACK.
	3. tweak commit message

v2 -> v1
	1. kasan_init.c tweak indent
	2. change Kconfig depends only on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN
	3. support randomized module region.


v2:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/1/9/49
v1:

[PATCH v3 1/5] arm64: kasan: don't populate vmalloc area for CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC

[Lecopzer Chen]

Linux support KAsan for VMALLOC since commit 3c5c3cfb9ef4da9
("kasan: support backing vmalloc space with real shadow memory")

Like how the MODULES_VADDR does now, just not to early populate
the VMALLOC_START between VMALLOC_END.

Before:

MODULE_VADDR: no mapping, no zoreo shadow at init
VMALLOC_VADDR: backed with zero shadow at init

After:

MODULE_VADDR: no mapping, no zoreo shadow at init
VMALLOC_VADDR: no mapping, no zoreo shadow at init

Thus the mapping will get allocated on demand by the core function
of KASAN_VMALLOC.

Not something introduced by this patch but what happens if this
condition is false? It means that kimg_shadow_end < mod_shadow_start and
the above kasan_populate_early_shadow(PAGE_END, mod_shadow_start)
overlaps with the earlier kasan_map_populate(kimg_shadow_start,
kimg_shadow_end).

In this case, the area between mod_shadow_start and kimg_shadow_end
was mapping when kasan init.

Thus the corner case is that module_alloc() allocates that range
(the area between mod_shadow_start and kimg_shadow_end) again.


With VMALLOC_KASAN,
module_alloc() ->
    ... ->
        kasan_populate_vmalloc ->
            apply_to_page_range()
will check the mapping exists or not and bypass allocating new mapping
if it exists.
So it should be fine in the second allocation.

Without VMALLOC_KASAN,
module_alloc() ->
    kasan_module_alloc()
will allocate the range twice, first time is kasan_map_populate() and
second time is vmalloc(),
and this should have some problems(?).

Now the only possibility that the module area can overlap with kimage
should be KASLR on.
I'm not sure if this is the case that really happens in KASLR, it depends on
how __relocate_kernel() calculates kimage and how kaslr_earlt_init()
decides module_alloc_base.

[PATCH v3 2/5] arm64: kasan: abstract _text and _end to KERNEL_START/END

[Lecopzer Chen]

Arm64 provides defined macro for KERNEL_START and KERNEL_END,
thus replace them by the abstration instead of using _text and _end.

[PATCH v3 4/5] arm64: kaslr: support randomized module area with KASAN_VMALLOC

[Lecopzer Chen]

After KASAN_VMALLOC works in arm64, we can randomize module region
into vmalloc area now.

Test:
	VMALLOC area ffffffc010000000 fffffffdf0000000

	before the patch:
		module_alloc_base/end ffffffc008b80000 ffffffc010000000
	after the patch:
		module_alloc_base/end ffffffdcf4bed000 ffffffc010000000

	And the function that insmod some modules is fine.

[PATCH v3 5/5] arm64: Kconfig: select KASAN_VMALLOC if KANSAN_GENERIC is enabled

[Lecopzer Chen]

Before this patch, someone who wants to use VMAP_STACK when
KASAN_GENERIC enabled must explicitly select KASAN_VMALLOC.

From Will's suggestion [1]:
  > I would _really_ like to move to VMAP stack unconditionally, and
  > that would effectively force KASAN_VMALLOC to be set if KASAN is in use.

Because VMAP_STACK now depends on either HW_TAGS or KASAN_VMALLOC if
KASAN enabled, in order to make VMAP_STACK selected unconditionally,
we bind KANSAN_GENERIC and KASAN_VMALLOC together.

Note that SW_TAGS supports neither VMAP_STACK nor KASAN_VMALLOC now,
so this is the first step to make VMAP_STACK selected unconditionally.

Bind KANSAN_GENERIC and KASAN_VMALLOC together is supposed to cost more
memory at runtime, thus the alternative is using SW_TAGS KASAN instead.

Do you plan an update to a newer kernel like 5.12-rc3?

You could move these to individual patches rather than the cover letter,
assuming that they still stand after the changes you've made. Also note
that Andrey K no longer has the @google.com email address if you cc him
on future patches (replace it with @gmail.com).

Thanks.

Yes, of course. I dealt with some personal matters so didn't update
these series last month.

Ok thanks for the suggestion.
I will move them to each patch and correct the email address.


Thanks,
