Hi Daniel, This is looking really good! I spotted a few more things we need to deal with, so I've suggested some (not even compile-tested) code for that below. Mostly that's just error handling, and using helpers to avoid things getting too verbose.

I think we can get most of that by using apply_to_page_range() to allocate the tables for us. * Between poisoning the page and updating the page table, we need an smp_wmb() to ensure that the poison is visible to other CPUs, similar to what __pte_alloc() and friends do when allocating new tables. * We can use the split pmd locks (used by both x86 and arm64) to minimize contention on the init_mm ptl. As apply_to_page_range() doesn't pass the corresponding pmd in, we'll have to re-walk the table in the callback, but I suspect that's better than having all vmalloc operations contend on the same ptl. I think it would make sense to follow the style of the __alloc_p?? functions and factor out the actual initialization into a helper like: static int __kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte(pmd_t *pmdp, pte_t *ptep) { unsigned long page; spinlock_t *ptl; pte_t pte; page = __get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL); if (!page) return -ENOMEM; memset((void *)page, KASAN_VMALLOC_INVALID, PAGE_SIZE); pte = pfn_pte(page_to_pfn(page), PAGE_KERNEL); /* * Ensure poisoning is visible before the shadow is made visible * to other CPUs. */ smp_wmb(); ptl = pmd_lock(&init_mm, pmdp); if (likely(pte_none(*ptep))) { set_pte(ptep, pte) page = 0; } spin_unlock(ptl); if (page) free_page(page); return 0; } ... with the apply_to_page_range() callback looking a bit like alloc_p??(), grabbing the pmd for its ptl. static int kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte(pte_t *ptep, unsigned long addr, void *unused) { pgd_t *pgdp; p4d_t *p4dp; pud_t *pudp; pmd_t *pmdp; if (likely(!pte_none(*ptep))) return 0; pgdp = pgd_offset_k(addr); p4dp = p4d_offset(pgdp, addr) pudp = pud_pffset(p4dp, addr); pmdp = pmd_offset(pudp, addr); return __kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte(pmdp, ptep); } ... and the main function looking something like: int kasan_populate_vmalloc(...) { unsigned long shadow_start, shadow_size; unsigned long addr; int ret; // calculate shadow bounds here ret = apply_to_page_range(&init_mm, shadow_start, shadow_size, kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte, NULL); if (ret) return ret; ... // unpoison the new allocation here } > + kasan_unpoison_shadow(area->addr, requested_size); > + > + /* > + * We have to poison the remainder of the allocation each time, not > + * just when the shadow page is first allocated, because vmalloc may > + * reuse addresses, and an early large allocation would cause us to > + * miss OOBs in future smaller allocations. > + * > + * The alternative is to poison the shadow on vfree()/vunmap().

I haven't looked, so I might have missed something that makes that nasty. If it's possible, I think it would be preferable to do so. It would be consistent with the non-vmalloc KASAN cases. IIUC in that case we only need the requested size here (and not the vmap_area), so we could just take start and size as arguments. Thanks, Mark.
