Subject: [PATCH v4] mempool: Do not use ksize() for poisoning

Nothing appears to be using ksize() within the kmalloc-backed mempools
except the mempool poisoning logic. Use the actual pool size instead
of the ksize() to avoid needing any special handling of the memory as
needed by KASAN, UBSAN_BOUNDS, nor FORTIFY_SOURCE.

Hi,

I see the following kernel paninc when I boot an arm64 allmodconfig kernel from todays linux-next tag next-20221031
This is the .config file I built [1], and here is the full log [2].

Subject: [PATCH] mempool: Do not use ksize() for poisoning-fix

For slab mempools (not kmalloc), pool_data is not object size, but a
kmem_cache pointer; we need to extract the size via kmem_cache_size().

I had a quick look at this to be sure I understood what was going on,
and I found a grotesque bug that has been with us since the introduction
of check_element() in 2015.

+ if (pool->free == mempool_free_pages) {
+ int order = (int)(long)pool->pool_data;
+ void *addr = kmap_atomic((struct page *)element);
+
+ __check_element(pool, addr, 1UL << (PAGE_SHIFT + order));
+ kunmap_atomic(addr);

kmap_atomic() and friends only map a single page. So this is all
nonsense for HIGHMEM kernels, GFP_HIGHMEM allocations and order > 0.
The consequence of doing that will be calling memset(POISON_INUSE)
on random pages that we don't own.

Ah-ha! Thank you both! Seems like the first fix should be squashed and
the latter one is separate? Or just put it all together?

Yes, I have no objection to Vlastimil's patch as-is. I haven't really
reviewed it, just used it as an excuse to look at this code. A fix for
the kmap_atomic() problem will necessarily be separate and should be
backported separately.

Thanks again for fixing this. I don't see it in -next yet? Should I
resend this directly, or how would be best to land it?

I think Andrew will add it from here, but maybe is waiting for Anders
acknowledging that it fixes the bug for him?
