Patch series "kasan: switch tag-based modes to stack ring from per-object metadata", v3. This series makes the tag-based KASAN modes use a ring buffer for storing stack depot handles for alloc/free stack traces for slab objects instead of per-object metadata. This ring buffer is referred to as the stack ring. On each alloc/free of a slab object, the tagged address of the object and the current stack trace are recorded in the stack ring. On each bug report, if the accessed address belongs to a slab object, the stack ring is scanned for matching entries. The newest entries are used to print the alloc/free stack traces in the report: one entry for alloc and one for free. The advantages of this approach over storing stack trace handles in per-object metadata with the tag-based KASAN modes: - Allows to find relevant stack traces for use-after-free bugs without using quarantine for freed memory. (Currently, if the object was reallocated multiple times, the report contains the latest alloc/free stack traces, not necessarily the ones relevant to the buggy allocation.) - Allows to better identify and mark use-after-free bugs, effectively making the CONFIG_KASAN_TAGS_IDENTIFY functionality always-on. - Has fixed memory overhead. The disadvantage: - If the affected object was allocated/freed long before the bug happened and the stack trace events were purged from the stack ring, the report will have no stack traces. Discussion ========== The proposed implementation of the stack ring uses a single ring buffer for the whole kernel. This might lead to contention due to atomic accesses to the ring buffer index on multicore systems. At this point, it is unknown whether the performance impact from this contention would be significant compared to the slowdown introduced by collecting stack traces due to the planned changes to the latter part, see the section below. For now, the proposed implementation is deemed to be good enough, but this might need to be revisited once the stack collection becomes faster. A considered alternative is to keep a separate ring buffer for each CPU and then iterate over all of them when printing a bug report. This approach requires somehow figuring out which of the stack rings has the freshest stack traces for an object if multiple stack rings have them. Further plans ============= This series is a part of an effort to make KASAN stack trace collection suitable for production. This requires stack trace collection to be fast and memory-bounded. The planned steps are: 1. Speed up stack trace collection (potentially, by using SCS; patches on-hold until steps #2 and #3 are completed). 2. Keep stack trace handles in the stack ring (this series). 3. Add a memory-bounded mode to stack depot or provide an alternative memory-bounded stack storage. 4. Potentially, implement stack trace collection sampling to minimize the performance impact. This patch (of 34): __kasan_metadata_size() calculates the size of the redzone for objects in a slab cache. When accounting for presence of kasan_free_meta in the redzone, this function only compares free_meta_offset with 0. But free_meta_offset could also be equal to KASAN_NO_FREE_META, which indicates that kasan_free_meta is not present at all. Add a comparison with KASAN_NO_FREE_META into __kasan_metadata_size().
