Currently, vmalloc space is backed by the early shadow page. This means that kasan is incompatible with VMAP_STACK. This series provides a mechanism to back vmalloc space with real, dynamically allocated memory. I have only wired up x86, because that's the only currently supported arch I can work with easily, but it's very easy to wire up other architectures, and it appears that there is some work-in-progress code to do this on arm64 and s390. This has been discussed before in the context of VMAP_STACK: - https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202009 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/22/198 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/19/822 In terms of implementation details: Most mappings in vmalloc space are small, requiring less than a full page of shadow space. Allocating a full shadow page per mapping would therefore be wasteful. Furthermore, to ensure that different mappings use different shadow pages, mappings would have to be aligned to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE * PAGE_SIZE. Instead, share backing space across multiple mappings. Allocate a backing page when a mapping in vmalloc space uses a particular page of the shadow region. This page can be shared by other vmalloc mappings later on. We hook in to the vmap infrastructure to lazily clean up unused shadow memory. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190725055503.19507-1-dja@xxxxxxxxxx/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190729142108.23343-1-dja@xxxxxxxxxx/ Address review comments: - Patch 1: use kasan_unpoison_shadow's built-in handling of ranges that do not align to a full shadow byte - Patch 3: prepopulate pgds rather than faulting things in v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190731071550.31814-1-dja@xxxxxxxxxx/ Address comments from Mark Rutland: - kasan_populate_vmalloc is a better name - handle concurrency correctly - various nits and cleanups - relax module alignment in KASAN_VMALLOC case v4: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190815001636.12235-1-dja@xxxxxxxxxx/ Changes to patch 1 only: - Integrate Mark's rework, thanks Mark! - handle the case where kasan_populate_shadow might fail - poision shadow on free, allowing the alloc path to just unpoision memory that it uses v5: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190830003821.10737-1-dja@xxxxxxxxxx/ Address comments from Christophe Leroy: - Fix some issues with my descriptions in commit messages and docs - Dynamically free unused shadow pages by hooking into the vmap book-keeping - Split out the test into a separate patch - Optional patch to track the number of pages allocated - minor checkpatch cleanups v6: Properly guard freeing pages in patch 1, drop debugging code.
