kasan: fix HW_TAGS boot parameters

2021-01-24T18:34:52+00:00

The initially proposed KASAN command line parameters are redundant.

This change drops the complex "kasan.mode=off/prod/full" parameter and
adds a simpler kill switch "kasan=off/on" instead.  The new parameter
together with the already existing ones provides a cleaner way to
express the same set of features.

The full set of parameters with this change:

  kasan=off/on             - whether KASAN is enabled
  kasan.fault=report/panic - whether to only print a report or also panic
  kasan.stacktrace=off/on  - whether to collect alloc/free stack traces

Default values:

  kasan=on
  kasan.fault=report
  kasan.stacktrace=on  (if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y)
  kasan.stacktrace=off (otherwise)

Documentation: kunit: include example of a parameterized test

2021-01-16T00:47:39+00:00

Commit fadb08e7c750 ("kunit: Support for Parameterized Testing")
introduced support but lacks documentation for how to use it.

This patch builds on commit 1f0e943df68a ("Documentation: kunit: provide
guidance for testing many inputs") to show a minimal example of the new
feature.

Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)

2020-12-22T21:38:17+00:00

Merge KASAN updates from Andrew Morton.

This adds a new hardware tag-based mode to KASAN.  The new mode is
similar to the existing software tag-based KASAN, but relies on arm64
Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) to perform memory and pointer tagging
(instead of shadow memory and compiler instrumentation).

By Andrey Konovalov and Vincenzo Frascino.

kasan: update documentation

2020-12-22T20:55:09+00:00

This change updates KASAN documentation to reflect the addition of boot
parameters and also reworks and clarifies some of the existing sections,
in particular: defines what a memory granule is, mentions quarantine,
makes Kunit section more readable.

kasan: rename KASAN_SHADOW_* to KASAN_GRANULE_*

2020-12-22T20:55:06+00:00

This is a preparatory commit for the upcoming addition of a new hardware
tag-based (MTE-based) KASAN mode.

The new mode won't be using shadow memory, but will still use the concept
of memory granules.  Each memory granule maps to a single metadata entry:
8 bytes per one shadow byte for generic mode, 16 bytes per one shadow byte
for software tag-based mode, and 16 bytes per one allocation tag for
hardware tag-based mode.

Rename KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE to KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE, and
KASAN_SHADOW_MASK to KASAN_GRANULE_MASK.

Also use MASK when used as a mask, otherwise use SIZE.

No functional changes.

ubsan: remove UBSAN_MISC in favor of individual options

2020-12-16T06:46:19+00:00

Make each UBSAN option individually selectable and remove UBSAN_MISC which
no longer has any purpose.  Add help text for each Kconfig, and include a
reference to the Clang sanitizer documentation.  Disable unsigned overflow
by default (not available with GCC and makes x86 unbootable with Clang).
Disable unreachable when objtool is in use (redundant and confuses things:
instrumentation appears at unreachable locations).
