[PATCH v2] lib/stackdepot: Double DEPOT_POOLS_CAP if KASAN is enabled
From: Waiman Long
Date: Wed Aug 07 2024 - 22:25:07 EST
As said in commit 02754e0a484a ("lib/stackdepot.c: bump stackdepot
capacity from 16MB to 128MB"), KASAN uses stackdepot to memorize stacks
for all kmalloc/kfree calls. So stackdepot capacity was increased 8
times to accommodate KASAN usage even thought it was claimed 4X should
be enough at that time.
With commit fc60e0caa94d ("lib/stackdepot: use fixed-sized slots
for stack records"), all stackdepot records uses a fixed size with
CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES (default=64) entries. This is merged to
support evictable KASAN stack records. Commit 31639fd6cebd ("stackdepot:
use variable size records for non-evictable entries") re-enabled
the use of variable size records for non-KASAN use cases, but KASAN
(generic mode) still uses the large fixed size stack records.
With the default CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES of 64, KASAN use of
stackdepot space had been more than double than before. Assuming an
average stack frame size of 16, a KASAN stack record is almost 4X the
size of a non-KASAN one.
When a wide variety of workloads are run on a debug kernel with KASAN
enabled, the following warning may sometimes be printed.

With all the recent changes in stackdepot to support new KASAN features,
it is obvious that the current DEPOT_POOLS_CAP of 8192 may not be
enough when KASAN is enabled. Fix this stackdepot capability issue
by doubling DEPOT_POOLS_CAP if KASAN is enabled. With 4k pages, the
maximum stackdepot capacity is doubled to 256 MB with KASAN enabled.
Also use the MIN() macro for defining DEPOT_MAX_POOLS to clarify the
intention.
