Subject: perf: fuzzer KASAN slab-out-of-bounds in snb_uncore_imc_event_del


After turning modversions off I finally managed to get a 4.9-rc kernel to
boot.

Anyway as per the suggestion at Linux Plumbers I enabled KASAN and on my
haswell machine it falls over in a few minutes of running the perf_fuzzer.

The best I can tell this maps to:

static void snb_uncore_imc_event_del(struct perf_event *event, int flags)
{
struct intel_uncore_box *box = uncore_event_to_box(event);
int i;

snb_uncore_imc_event_stop(event, PERF_EF_UPDATE);

for (i = 0; i < box->n_events; i++) {
>>> if (event == box->event_list[i]) {
--box->n_events;
break;
}
}
}

Can this code be right? Does it actually remove the event?
The similar code in

static void uncore_pmu_event_del(struct perf_event *event, int flags)

....

for (i = 0; i < box->n_events; i++) {
if (event == box->event_list[i]) {
uncore_put_event_constraint(box, event);

for (++i; i < box->n_events; i++)
box->event_list[i - 1] = box->event_list[i];

--box->n_events;
break;
}
}


seems like it is more likely to be correct.

If you pipe the report through
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/blob/master/address-sanitizer/tools/kasan_symbolize.py
it will give you line numbers and inlined frames.

is there any documentation for that program? If I run the dump through
it, it removes the timestamps and as far as I can see doesn't do anything
else.

the source code...

There are 4 flags:
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/blob/master/address-sanitizer/tools/kasan_symbolize.py#L315

The only important one is --linux which should point to a dir with
vmlinux. Default value is cwd.
Also do you have kernel built with debug info? No debug info, no lines.

Kan, can you look at this?

For client IMC, there is no generic counters.
Current implementation defines its own fixed free running counters.
event_list and n_events are unused.
I think we can just remove them.

Vince, could you please try the patch as below?

With this patch I have not been able to trigger the imc/uncore issue.

Or at least I used to be able to trigger it within 5 minutes, now I go
longer (maybe 10 minutes) before hitting an unrelated issue.

Thanks a lot for the test.
I will submit the patch then.
