[PATCH 00/43] Add KernelMemorySanitizer infrastructure

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

 



KernelMemorySanitizer (KMSAN) is a detector of errors related to uses of
uninitialized memory. It relies on compile-time Clang instrumentation
(similar to MSan in the userspace [1]) and tracks the state of every bit
of kernel memory, being able to report an error if uninitialized value is
used in a condition, dereferenced, or escapes to userspace, USB or DMA.

KMSAN has reported more than 300 bugs in the past few years (recently
fixed bugs: [2]), most of them with the help of syzkaller. Such bugs
keep getting introduced into the kernel despite new compiler warnings and
other analyses (the 5.16 cycle already resulted in several KMSAN-reported
bugs, e.g. [3]). Mitigations like total stack and heap initialization are
unfortunately very far from being deployable.

The proposed patchset contains KMSAN runtime implementation together with
small changes to other subsystems needed to make KMSAN work.

The latter changes fall into several categories:

1. Changes and refactorings of existing code required to add KMSAN:
- [1/43] arch/x86: add missing include to sparsemem.h
- [2/43] stackdepot: reserve 5 extra bits in depot_stack_handle_t
- [3/43] kasan: common: adapt to the new prototype of __stack_depot_save()
- [4/43] instrumented.h: allow instrumenting both sides of copy_from_user()
- [5/43] asm: x86: instrument usercopy in get_user() and __put_user_size()
- [6/43] asm-generic: instrument usercopy in cacheflush.h
- [7/43] compiler_attributes.h: add __disable_sanitizer_instrumentation
- [11/43] libnvdimm/pfn_dev: increase MAX_STRUCT_PAGE_SIZE
- [12/43] kcsan: clang: retire CONFIG_KCSAN_KCOV_BROKEN

2. KMSAN-related declarations in generic code, KMSAN runtime library,
   docs and configs:
- [8/43] kmsan: add ReST documentation
- [9/43] kmsan: introduce __no_sanitize_memory and __no_kmsan_checks
- [10/43] kmsan: pgtable: reduce vmalloc space
- [13/43] kmsan: add KMSAN runtime core
- [14/43] MAINTAINERS: add entry for KMSAN
- [30/43] kmsan: add tests for KMSAN
- [35/43] x86: kmsan: use __msan_ string functions where possible.
- [42/43] objtool: kmsan: list KMSAN API functions as uaccess-safe
- [43/43] x86: kmsan: enable KMSAN builds for x86

3. Adding hooks from different subsystems to notify KMSAN about memory
   state changes:
- [15/43] kmsan: mm: maintain KMSAN metadata for page operations
- [16/43] kmsan: mm: call KMSAN hooks from SLUB code
- [17/43] kmsan: handle task creation and exiting
- [19/43] kmsan: init: call KMSAN initialization routines
- [20/43] instrumented.h: add KMSAN support
- [26/43] kmsan: virtio: check/unpoison scatterlist in vring_map_one_sg()
- [27/43] x86: kmsan: add iomem support
- [28/43] kmsan: dma: unpoison DMA mappings
- [29/43] kmsan: handle memory sent to/from USB
- [36/43] x86: kmsan: sync metadata pages on page fault

4. Changes that prevent false reports by explicitly initializing memory,
   disabling optimized code that may trick KMSAN, selectively skipping
   instrumentation:
- [18/43] kmsan: unpoison @tlb in arch_tlb_gather_mmu()
- [22/43] kmsan: initialize the output of READ_ONCE_NOCHECK()
- [23/43] kmsan: make READ_ONCE_TASK_STACK() return initialized values
- [24/43] kmsan: disable KMSAN instrumentation for certain kernel parts
- [25/43] kmsan: skip shadow checks in files doing context switches
- [31/43] kmsan: disable strscpy() optimization under KMSAN
- [32/43] crypto: kmsan: disable accelerated configs under KMSAN
- [33/43] kmsan: disable physical page merging in biovec
- [34/43] kmsan: block: skip bio block merging logic for KMSAN
- [37/43] x86: kasan: kmsan: support CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM on x86, enable it for KASAN/KMSAN
- [38/43] x86: fs: kmsan: disable CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS
- [40/43] kmsan: kcov: unpoison area->list in kcov_remote_area_put()
- [41/43] security: kmsan: fix interoperability with auto-initialization

5. Noinstr handling:
- [21/43] kmsan: mark noinstr as __no_sanitize_memory
- [39/43] x86: kmsan: handle register passing from uninstrumented code

This patchset allows one to boot and run a defconfig+KMSAN kernel on a
QEMU without known false positives. It however doesn't guarantee there
are no false positives in drivers of certain devices or less tested
subsystems, although KMSAN is actively tested on syzbot with a large
config.

The patchset was generated relative to Linux v5.16-rc5. The most
up-to-date KMSAN tree currently resides at
https://github.com/google/kmsan/.
One may find it handy to review these patches in Gerrit:

A huge thanks goes to the reviewers of the RFC patch series sent to LKML
last year
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200325161249.55095-1-glider@xxxxxxxxxx/).
