[PATCH 2/5 v13] ARM: Replace string mem* functions for KASan

Linus Walleij linus.walleij at linaro.org
Mon Sep 14 08:43:21 EDT 2020


From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin at virtuozzo.com>

Functions like memset()/memmove()/memcpy() do a lot of memory
accesses.

If a bad pointer is passed to one of these functions it is important
to catch this. Compiler instrumentation cannot do this since these
functions are written in assembly.

KASan replaces these memory functions with instrumented variants.

The original functions are declared as weak symbols so that
the strong definitions in mm/kasan/kasan.c can replace them.

The original functions have aliases with a '__' prefix in their
name, so we can call the non-instrumented variant if needed.

We must use __memcpy()/__memset() in place of memcpy()/memset()
when we copy .data to RAM and when we clear .bss, because
kasan_early_init cannot be called before the initialization of
.data and .bss.

For the kernel compression and EFI libstub's custom string
libraries we need a special quirk: even if these are built
without KASan enabled, they rely on the global headers for their
custom string libraries, which means that e.g. memcpy()
will be defined to __memcpy() and we get link failures.
Since these implementations are written i C rather than
assembly we use e.g. __alias(memcpy) to redirected any
users back to the local implementation.

ChangeLog v12->v13:
- Rebase on kernel v5.9-rc1
ChangeLog v11->v12:
- Resend with the other changes.
ChangeLog v10->v11:
- Resend with the other changes.
ChangeLog v9->v10:
- Rebase on v5.8-rc1
ChangeLog v8->v9:
- Collect Ard's tags.
ChangeLog v7->v8:
- Use the less invasive version of handling the global redefines
  of the string functions in the decompressor: __alias() the
  functions locally in the library.
- Put in some more comments so readers of the code knows what
  is going on.
ChangeLog v6->v7:
- Move the hacks around __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__ into this file
- Edit the commit message
- Rebase on the other v2 patches
