[PATCH] kasan: prevent recursive instrumentation

From: Mark Rutland
Date: Fri Feb 22 2019 - 13:29:01 EST


When CONFIG_KASAN is selected, <linux/kasan-checks.h> defines the
prototypes for kasan_check_{read,write}(), rather than inline stubs.

This is the case even when it is included by files which are not
instrumented by KASAN. Where helpers (e.g. the atomics) are instrumented
with explicit calls to kasan_check_{read,write}(), this results in files
being unexpectedly instrumented.

This is problematic as it can result in instrumentation in files which
cannot safely call these functions, such as within the EFI stub:

[mark@lakrids:~/src/linux]% usekorg 8.1.0 make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux- -j64 -s
drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/arm-stub.stub.o: In function `atomic_set':
/home/mark/src/linux/./include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h:44: undefined reference to `__efistub_kasan_check_write'
/home/mark/src/linux/./include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h:44:(.init.text+0xa0): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `__efistub_kasan_check_write'
Makefile:1021: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Let's avoid this by ensuring that uninstrumented files are given the
same stub definition of these functions used for !KASAN builds. So that
the stub defintions don't conflict with the real definitions in
(uninstrumented) common KASAN code, the real definitions are prefixed
with underscores, and called from unprefixed macros.

Any compiler-generated instrumentation uses separate
__asan_{load,store}_*() entry points, and is not affected by this
change.

Hi,

Assuming the KASAN folk are happy with this, I'd like this to be queued in the
tip tree, where the arm64 instrumented atomics are already queued.

Thanks,
Mark.
