mm/slub.c: avoid slub allocation while holding list_lock
If we are already under list_lock, don't call kmalloc(). Otherwise we
will run into a deadlock because kmalloc() also tries to grab the same
lock.
Fix the problem by using a static bitmap instead.

mm/slub.c: clean up validate_slab()
The function doesn't need to return any value, and the check can be done in one pass. There is a behavior change: before the patch, we stop at the first invalid free object; after the patch, we stop at the first invalid object, free or in use. This shouldn't matter because the original behavior isn't intended anyway.

mm/slub.c: init_on_free=1 should wipe freelist ptr for bulk allocations
slab_alloc_node() already zeroed out the freelist pointer if
init_on_free was on. Thibaut Sautereau noticed that the same needs to
be done for kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), which performs the allocations
separately.
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is currently used in two places in the kernel,
so this change is unlikely to have a major performance impact.
SLAB doesn't require a similar change, as auto-initialization makes the
allocator store the freelist pointers off-slab.

mm, sl[ou]b: improve memory accounting
Patch series "guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc()", v2. This patch (of 2): SLOB currently doesn't account its pages at all, so in /proc/meminfo the Slab field shows zero. Modifying a counter on page allocation and freeing should be acceptable even for the small system scenarios SLOB is intended for. Since reclaimable caches are not separated in SLOB, account everything as unreclaimable. SLUB currently doesn't account kmalloc() and kmalloc_node() allocations larger than order-1 page, that are passed directly to the page allocator. As they also don't appear in /proc/slabinfo, it might look like a memory leak. For consistency, account them as well. (SLAB doesn't actually use page allocator directly, so no change there). Ideally SLOB and SLUB would be handled in separate patches, but due to the shared kmalloc_order() function and different kfree() implementations, it's easier to patch both at once to prevent inconsistencies.

mm, slab: extend slab/shrink to shrink all memcg caches
Currently, a value of '1" is written to /sys/kernel/slab/<slab>/shrink file to shrink the slab by flushing out all the per-cpu slabs and free slabs in partial lists. This can be useful to squeeze out a bit more memory under extreme condition as well as making the active object counts in /proc/slabinfo more accurate. This usually applies only to the root caches, as the SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON option is usually not enabled and "slub_memcg_sysfs=1" not set. Even if memcg sysfs is turned on, it is too cumbersome and impractical to manage all those per-memcg sysfs files in a real production system. So there is no practical way to shrink memcg caches. Fix this by enabling a proper write to the shrink sysfs file of the root cache to scan all the available memcg caches and shrink them as well. For a non-root memcg cache (when SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON or slub_memcg_sysfs is on), only that cache will be shrunk when written. On a 2-socket 64-core 256-thread arm64 system with 64k page after a parallel kernel build, the the amount of memory occupied by slabs before shrinking slabs were: # grep task_struct /proc/slabinfo task_struct 53137 53192 4288 61 4 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 872 872 0 # grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo Slab: 3936832 kB SReclaimable: 399104 kB SUnreclaim: 3537728 kB After shrinking slabs (by echoing "1" to all shrink files): # grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo Slab: 1356288 kB SReclaimable: 263296 kB SUnreclaim: 1092992 kB # grep task_struct /proc/slabinfo task_struct 2764 6832 4288 61 4 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 112 112 0 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190723151445.7385-1-longman@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: slub: Fix slab walking for init_on_free
To properly clear the slab on free with slab_want_init_on_free, we walk
the list of free objects using get_freepointer/set_freepointer.
The value we get from get_freepointer may not be valid. This isn't an
issue since an actual value will get written later but this means
there's a chance of triggering a bug if we use this value with
set_freepointer:

mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options
Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10. Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options. These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes. SLOB allocator isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly. Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access stale data by using a dangling pointer. As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to disable initialization for certain allocations. There's not enough evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways to opt-out may result in things going out of control. This patch (of 2): The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS. And it gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the boot args. (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks where memory forensics is included in their threat models.) init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap objects with zeroes. Initialization is done at allocation time at the places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed. init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects with zeroes upon their deletion. This helps to ensure sensitive data doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses. Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator returns zeroed memory. The two exceptions are slab caches with constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag. Those are never zero-initialized to preserve their semantics. Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON. If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only applied to unpoisoned allocations. Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0: hackbench, init_on_free=1: +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%) hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%) The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline is within the standard error. The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory tagging (e.g. arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free hooks to set the tags for heap objects. With MTE, tagging will have the same cost as memory initialization. Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized. There are various arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost, it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

mm: memcg/slab: generalize postponed non-root kmem_cache deactivation
Currently SLUB uses a work scheduled after an RCU grace period to
deactivate a non-root kmem_cache. This mechanism can be reused for
kmem_caches release, but requires generalization for SLAB case.
Introduce kmemcg_cache_deactivate() function, which calls
allocator-specific __kmem_cache_deactivate() and schedules execution of
__kmem_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() with all necessary locks in a worker
context after an rcu grace period.
Here is the new calling scheme:
kmemcg_cache_deactivate()
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific
kmemcg_rcufn() rcu
kmemcg_workfn() work
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() SLAB/SLUB-specific
instead of:
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific
slab_deactivate_memcg_cache_rcu_sched() SLUB-only
kmemcg_rcufn() rcu
kmemcg_workfn() work
kmemcg_cache_deact_after_rcu() SLUB-only
For consistency, all allocator-specific functions start with "__".

mm: memcg/slab: postpone kmem_cache memcg pointer initialization to memcg_link_cache()
Patch series "mm: reparent slab memory on cgroup removal", v7. # Why do we need this? We've noticed that the number of dying cgroups is steadily growing on most of our hosts in production. The following investigation revealed an issue in the userspace memory reclaim code [1], accounting of kernel stacks [2], and also the main reason: slab objects. The underlying problem is quite simple: any page charged to a cgroup holds a reference to it, so the cgroup can't be reclaimed unless all charged pages are gone. If a slab object is actively used by other cgroups, it won't be reclaimed, and will prevent the origin cgroup from being reclaimed. Slab objects, and first of all vfs cache, is shared between cgroups, which are using the same underlying fs, and what's even more important, it's shared between multiple generations of the same workload. So if something is running periodically every time in a new cgroup (like how systemd works), we do accumulate multiple dying cgroups. Strictly speaking pagecache isn't different here, but there is a key difference: we disable protection and apply some extra pressure on LRUs of dying cgroups, and these LRUs contain all charged pages. My experiments show that with the disabled kernel memory accounting the number of dying cgroups stabilizes at a relatively small number (~100, depends on memory pressure and cgroup creation rate), and with kernel memory accounting it grows pretty steadily up to several thousands. Memory cgroups are quite complex and big objects (mostly due to percpu stats), so it leads to noticeable memory losses. Memory occupied by dying cgroups is measured in hundreds of megabytes. I've even seen a host with more than 100Gb of memory wasted for dying cgroups. It leads to a degradation of performance with the uptime, and generally limits the usage of cgroups. My previous attempt [3] to fix the problem by applying extra pressure on slab shrinker lists caused a regressions with xfs and ext4, and has been reverted [4]. The following attempts to find the right balance [5, 6] were not successful. So instead of trying to find a maybe non-existing balance, let's do reparent accounted slab caches to the parent cgroup on cgroup removal. # Implementation approach There is however a significant problem with reparenting of slab memory: there is no list of charged pages. Some of them are in shrinker lists, but not all. Introducing of a new list is really not an option. But fortunately there is a way forward: every slab page has a stable pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache. So the idea is to reparent kmem_caches instead of slab pages. It's actually simpler and cheaper, but requires some underlying changes: 1) Make kmem_caches to hold a single reference to the memory cgroup, instead of a separate reference per every slab page. 2) Stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for memcg slab pages and use page->kmem_cache->memcg indirection instead. It's used only on slab page release, so performance overhead shouldn't be a big issue. 3) Introduce a refcounter for non-root slab caches. It's required to be able to destroy kmem_caches when they become empty and release the associated memory cgroup. There is a bonus: currently we release all memcg kmem_caches all together with the memory cgroup itself. This patchset allows individual kmem_caches to be released as soon as they become inactive and free. Some additional implementation details are provided in corresponding commit messages. # Results Below is the average number of dying cgroups on two groups of our production hosts. They do run some sort of web frontend workload, the memory pressure is moderate. As we can see, with the kernel memory reparenting the number stabilizes in 60s range; however with the original version it grows almost linearly and doesn't show any signs of plateauing. The difference in slab and percpu usage between patched and unpatched versions also grows linearly. In 7 days it exceeded 200Mb. day 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 original 56 362 628 752 1070 1250 1490 1560 patched 23 46 51 55 60 57 67 69 mem diff(Mb) 22 74 123 152 164 182 214 241 # Links [1]: commit |

slub: don't panic for memcg kmem cache creation failure
Currently for CONFIG_SLUB, if a memcg kmem cache creation is failed and the corresponding root kmem cache has SLAB_PANIC flag, the kernel will be crashed. This is unnecessary as the kernel can handle the creation failures of memcg kmem caches. Additionally CONFIG_SLAB does not implement this behavior. So, to keep the behavior consistent between SLAB and SLUB, removing the panic for memcg kmem cache creation failures. The root kmem cache creation failure for SLAB_PANIC correctly panics for both SLAB and SLUB.

slub: add comments to endif pre-processor macros
SLUB allocator makes heavy use of ifdef/endif pre-processor macros. The
pairing of these statements is at times hard to follow e.g. if the pair
are further than a screen apart or if there are nested pairs. We can
reduce cognitive load by adding a comment to the endif statement of form
#ifdef CONFIG_FOO
...
#endif /* CONFIG_FOO */
Add comments to endif pre-processor macros if ifdef/endif pair is not
immediately apparent.

mm: add support for kmem caches in DMA32 zone
Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables",
v6.
This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2].
IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1
and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit
systems.
For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use
__get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still
use GFP_DMA).
For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full
page, so we considered 3 approaches:
1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page
tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse
freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3]
This series is the most memory-efficient approach.
stable@ note:
We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19
and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue
most likely starts from commit

All other callers of slab_index() have the same situation where "addr"

kasan, slub: fix more conflicts with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is enabled, ptr_addr might be tagged. Normally, this doesn't cause any issues, as both set_freepointer() and get_freepointer() are called with a pointer with the same tag. However, there are some issues with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG code. For example, when __free_slub() iterates over objects in a cache, it passes untagged pointers to check_object(). check_object() in turns calls get_freepointer() with an untagged pointer, which causes the freepointer to be restored incorrectly. Add kasan_reset_tag to freelist_ptr(). Also add a detailed comment.

kasan, slub: fix conflicts with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED hashes freelist pointer with the address of the object where the pointer gets stored. With tag based KASAN we don't account for that when building freelist, as we call set_freepointer() with the first argument untagged. This patch changes the code to properly propagate tags throughout the loop.

kasan, slub: move kasan_poison_slab hook before page_address
With tag based KASAN page_address() looks at the page flags to see whether the resulting pointer needs to have a tag set. Since we don't want to set a tag when page_address() is called on SLAB pages, we call page_kasan_tag_reset() in kasan_poison_slab(). However in allocate_slab() page_address() is called before kasan_poison_slab(). Fix it by changing the order.

kmemleak: account for tagged pointers when calculating pointer range
kmemleak keeps two global variables, min_addr and max_addr, which store the range of valid (encountered by kmemleak) pointer values, which it later uses to speed up pointer lookup when scanning blocks. With tagged pointers this range will get bigger than it needs to be. This patch makes kmemleak untag pointers before saving them to min_addr and max_addr and when performing a lookup.

kasan: preassign tags to objects with ctors or SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
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.

kasan: add CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS
This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two: 1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one that exists now); 2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode. The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory tagging support in arm64. With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set). Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes. This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts common hooks implementation. While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.

kasan, mm: change hooks signatures
Patch series "kasan: add software tag-based mode for arm64", v13. This patchset adds a new software tag-based mode to KASAN [1]. (Initially this mode was called KHWASAN, but it got renamed, see the naming rationale at the end of this section). 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 underlying ideas of the approach used by software tag-based KASAN are: 1. By using the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) 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. With this patchset the existing KASAN mode gets renamed to generic KASAN, with the word "generic" meaning that the implementation can be supported by any architecture as it is purely software. The new mode this patchset adds is called software tag-based KASAN. The word "tag-based" refers to the fact that this mode uses tags embedded into the top byte of kernel pointers and the TBI arm64 CPU feature that allows to dereference such pointers. The word "software" here means that shadow memory manipulation and tag checking on pointer dereference is done in software. As it is the only tag-based implementation right now, "software tag-based" KASAN is sometimes referred to as simply "tag-based" in this patchset. A potential expansion of this mode is a hardware tag-based mode, which would use hardware memory tagging support (announced by Arm [3]) instead of compiler instrumentation and manual shadow memory manipulation. Same as generic KASAN, software tag-based KASAN is strictly a debugging feature. [1] https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/dev-tools/kasan.html [2] http://clang.llvm.org/docs/HardwareAssistedAddressSanitizerDesign.html [3] https://community.arm.com/processors/b/blog/posts/arm-a-profile-architecture-2018-developments-armv85a ====== Rationale On mobile devices generic KASAN's memory usage is significant problem. One of the main reasons to have tag-based KASAN is to be able to perform a similar set of checks as the generic one does, but with lower memory requirements. Comment from Vishwath Mohan <vishwath@google.com>: 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 <eugenis@google.com>: 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.

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 KASAN simply prints a bug report. In case of inline instrumentation, clang inserts a brk instruction, and KASAN 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 tag-based KASAN can detect compared to generic 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 tag-based KASAN 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 tag-based KASAN 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 generic and tag-based KASAN were used in inline instrumentation mode. Boot time [1]: * ~1.7 sec for clean kernel * ~5.0 sec for generic KASAN * ~5.0 sec for tag-based KASAN Network performance [2]: * 8.33 Gbits/sec for clean kernel * 3.17 Gbits/sec for generic KASAN * 2.85 Gbits/sec for tag-based KASAN Slab memory usage after boot [3]: * ~40 kb for clean kernel * ~105 kb (~260% overhead) for generic KASAN * ~47 kb (~20% overhead) for tag-based KASAN 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 tag-based vs generic KASAN for each of these points: 1. 20% vs 260% overhead. 2. 1/16th vs 1/8th of physical memory. 3. Tag-based KASAN 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 Clang version (7.0.0 or later). 3. Stack instrumentation is not supported yet and will be added later. This patch (of 25): Tag-based KASAN changes 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.
