Subject: [PATCH] arm64: increase stack size for KASAN_EXTRA
Date: Fri,  7 Dec 2018 17:34:49 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181207223449.38808-1-cai@lca.pw> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <721E7B42-2D55-4866-9C1A-3E8D64F33F9C@gmx.us>

If the kernel is configured with KASAN_EXTRA, the stack size is
increasted significantly due to enable this option will set
-fstack-reuse to "none" in GCC [1]. As the results, it could trigger
stack overrun quite often with 32k stack size compiled using GCC 8. For
example, this reproducer

https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/\
syscalls/madvise/madvise06.c

could trigger a "corrupted stack end detected inside scheduler" very
reliably with CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK enabled. Also, See other bug
reports,

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1542144497.12945.29.camel@gmx.us/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/721E7B42-2D55-4866-9C1A-3E8D64F33F9C@gmx.us/

There are just too many functions that could have a large stack with
KASAN_EXTRA due to large local variables that have been called over and
over again without being able to reuse the stacks. Some noticiable ones
are,

size
7536 shrink_inactive_list
7440 shrink_page_list
6560 fscache_stats_show
3920 jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
3216 try_to_unmap_one
3072 migrate_page_move_mapping
3584 migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page
3920 ip_vs_lblcr_schedule
4304 lpfc_nvme_info_show
3888 lpfc_debugfs_nvmestat_data.constprop

There are other 49 functions are over 2k in size while compiling kernel
with "-Wframe-larger-than=" on this machine. Hence, it is too much work
to change Makefiles for each object to compile without
-fsanitize-address-use-after-scope individually.
