Will Deacon 7aed6a2c51 kasan: Disable Software Tag-Based KASAN with GCC
Syzbot reports a KASAN failure early during boot on arm64 when building
with GCC 12.2.0 and using the Software Tag-Based KASAN mode:

  | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in smp_build_mpidr_hash arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:133 [inline]
  | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in setup_arch+0x984/0xd60 arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:356
  | Write of size 4 at addr 03ff800086867e00 by task swapper/0
  | Pointer tag: [03], memory tag: [fe]

Initial triage indicates that the report is a false positive and a
thorough investigation of the crash by Mark Rutland revealed the root
cause to be a bug in GCC:

  > When GCC is passed `-fsanitize=hwaddress` or
  > `-fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress` it ignores
  > `__attribute__((no_sanitize_address))`, and instruments functions
  > we require are not instrumented.
  >
  > [...]
  >
  > All versions [of GCC] I tried were broken, from 11.3.0 to 14.2.0
  > inclusive.
  >
  > I think we have to disable KASAN_SW_TAGS with GCC until this is
  > fixed

Disable Software Tag-Based KASAN when building with GCC by making
CC_HAS_KASAN_SW_TAGS depend on !CC_IS_GCC.

prompt "KASAN mode"
default KASAN_GENERIC
help
KASAN has three modes:
1. Generic KASAN (supported by many architectures, enabled with
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, similar to userspace ASan),
2. Software Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on software memory
tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, similar to userspace
HWASan), and
3. Hardware Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware memory
tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).
See Documentation/dev-tools/kasan.rst for details about each mode.

help
Enables Generic KASAN.
Requires GCC 8.3.0+ or Clang.
Consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start and adds an
overhead of ~50% for dynamic allocations.
The performance slowdown is ~x3.
config KASAN_SW_TAGS

Enables Software Tag-Based KASAN.
Requires Clang.
Supported only on arm64 CPUs and relies on Top Byte Ignore.
Consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start and
add an overhead of ~20% for dynamic allocations.
May potentially introduce problems related to pointer casting and
comparison, as it embeds a tag into the top byte of each pointer.
config KASAN_HW_TAGS

Requires GCC 10+ or Clang 12+.
Supported only on arm64 CPUs starting from ARMv8.5 and relies on
Memory Tagging Extension and Top Byte Ignore.
Consumes about 1/32nd of available memory.
May potentially introduce problems related to pointer casting and
comparison, as it embeds a tag into the top byte of each pointer.

config KASAN_OUTLINE
bool "Outline instrumentation"
help
Makes the compiler insert function calls that check whether the memory
is accessible before each memory access. Slower than KASAN_INLINE, but
does not bloat the size of the kernel's .text section so much.
config KASAN_INLINE
bool "Inline instrumentation"
depends on !ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE
help
Makes the compiler directly insert memory accessibility checks before
each memory access. Faster than KASAN_OUTLINE (gives ~x2 boost for
some workloads), but makes the kernel's .text size much bigger.

bool "Stack instrumentation (unsafe)" if CC_IS_CLANG && !COMPILE_TEST

depends on !ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE
default y if CC_IS_GCC
help
Disables stack instrumentation and thus KASAN's ability to detect
out-of-bounds bugs in stack variables.
With Clang, stack instrumentation has a problem that causes excessive
stack usage, see https://llvm.org/pr38809. Thus,
with Clang, this option is deemed unsafe.
This option is always disabled when compile-testing with Clang to
avoid cluttering the log with stack overflow warnings.
With GCC, enabling stack instrumentation is assumed to be safe.
If the architecture disables inline instrumentation via
ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE, stack instrumentation gets disabled
as well, as it adds inline-style instrumentation that is run
unconditionally.
config KASAN_VMALLOC
bool "Check accesses to vmalloc allocations"
depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_VMALLOC
help
Makes KASAN check the validity of accesses to vmalloc allocations.
With software KASAN modes, all types vmalloc allocations are
checked. Enabling this option leads to higher memory usage.
With Hardware Tag-Based KASAN, only non-executable VM_ALLOC mappings
are checked. There is no additional memory usage.

help
Record and report more information to help us find the cause of the
bug and to help us correlate the error with other system events.
Currently, the CPU number and timestamp are additionally
recorded for each heap block at allocation and free time, and
8 bytes will be added to each metadata structure that records
allocation or free information.
In Generic KASAN, each kmalloc-8 and kmalloc-16 object will add
16 bytes of additional memory consumption, and each kmalloc-32
object will add 8 bytes of additional memory consumption, not
affecting other larger objects.
In SW_TAGS KASAN and HW_TAGS KASAN, depending on the stack_ring_size
boot parameter, it will add 8 * stack_ring_size bytes of additional
memory consumption.
