Maybe there's a > better way? Yes. Something like this should cover all exceptions and syscalls before anything instrumentable can touch @regs. Anything up to those points is either off-limit for instrumentation or does not deal with @regs. --- a/kernel/entry/common.c +++ b/kernel/entry/common.c @@ -24,6 +24,7 @@ static __always_inline void __enter_from user_exit_irqoff(); instrumentation_begin(); + unpoison(regs); trace_hardirqs_off_finish(); instrumentation_end(); } @@ -352,6 +353,7 @@ noinstr irqentry_state_t irqentry_enter( lockdep_hardirqs_off(CALLER_ADDR0); rcu_irq_enter(); instrumentation_begin(); + unpoison(regs); trace_hardirqs_off_finish(); instrumentation_end(); @@ -367,6 +369,7 @@ noinstr irqentry_state_t irqentry_enter( */ lockdep_hardirqs_off(CALLER_ADDR0); instrumentation_begin(); + unpoison(regs); rcu_irq_enter_check_tick(); trace_hardirqs_off_finish(); instrumentation_end(); @@ -452,6 +455,7 @@ irqentry_state_t noinstr irqentry_nmi_en rcu_nmi_enter(); instrumentation_begin(); + unpoison(regs); trace_hardirqs_off_finish(); ftrace_nmi_enter(); instrumentation_end(); As I said: 4 places :) > Fortunately, I don't think we need to insert extra instrumentation > into instrumentation_begin()/instrumentation_end() regions. > > What I have in mind is adding a bool flag to kmsan_context_state, that > the instrumentation sets to true before the function call. > When entering an instrumented function, KMSAN would check that flag > and set it to false, so that the context state can be only used once. > If a function is called from another instrumented function, the > context state is properly set up, and there is nothing to worry about. > If it is called from non-instrumented code (either noinstr or the > skipped files that have KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n), KMSAN would detect that > and wipe the context state before use. Sounds good. Thanks, tglx
