Re: [PATCH 19/22] arm64: mte: Allow user control of the tag check mode via prctl()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Not just related to this patch, but here goes. While trying to debug an MTE-enabled process, I realised that there's no way to tell the tagged addr / MTE thread configuration from outside of the thread. At this point I thought it'd be really nice if this were to be exposed in /proc/pid, maybe in /proc/pid/status. Unfortunately there seems to be no precedent for an arch-specific feature to be exposed there. I guess a ptrace call would work as well, although it wouldn't be as practical without using a debugger.

Any thoughts?

By default, even if PROT_MTE is set on a memory range, there is no tag
check fault reporting (SIGSEGV). Introduce a set of option to the
exiting prctl(PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL) to allow user control of the tag
check fault mode:

   PR_MTE_TCF_NONE  - no reporting (default)
   PR_MTE_TCF_SYNC  - synchronous tag check fault reporting
   PR_MTE_TCF_ASYNC - asynchronous tag check fault reporting

These options translate into the corresponding SCTLR_EL1.TCF0 bitfield,
context-switched by the kernel. Note that uaccess done by the kernel is
not checked and cannot be configured by the user.
