Subject: [PATCH v15 0/8] arm64: ARMv8.5-A: MTE: Add async mode support

This patchset implements the asynchronous mode support for ARMv8.5-A
Memory Tagging Extension (MTE), which is a debugging feature that allows
to detect with the help of the architecture the C and C++ programmatic
memory errors like buffer overflow, use-after-free, use-after-return, etc.

MTE is built on top of the AArch64 v8.0 virtual address tagging TBI
(Top Byte Ignore) feature and allows a task to set a 4 bit tag on any
subset of its address space that is multiple of a 16 bytes granule. MTE
is based on a lock-key mechanism where the lock is the tag associated to
the physical memory and the key is the tag associated to the virtual
address.
When MTE is enabled and tags are set for ranges of address space of a task,
the PE will compare the tag related to the physical memory with the tag
related to the virtual address (tag check operation). Access to the memory
is granted only if the two tags match. In case of mismatch the PE will raise
an exception.

The exception can be handled synchronously or asynchronously. When the
asynchronous mode is enabled:
- Upon fault the PE updates the TFSR_EL1 register.
- The kernel detects the change during one of the following:
- Context switching
- Return to user/EL0
- Kernel entry from EL1
- Kernel exit to EL1
- If the register has been updated by the PE the kernel clears it and
reports the error.

The series is based on linux-next/akpm.

To simplify the testing a tree with the new patches on top has been made
available at [1].

arch_enable_tagging() was left in memory.h after the introduction of
async mode to not break the bysectability of the KASAN KUNIT tests.

Remove the function now that KASAN has been fully converted.

Subject: [PATCH v15 7/8] arm64: mte: Report async tag faults before suspend

When MTE async mode is enabled TFSR_EL1 contains the accumulative
asynchronous tag check faults for EL1 and EL0.

During the suspend/resume operations the firmware might perform some
operations that could change the state of the register resulting in
a spurious tag check fault report.

Report asynchronous tag faults before suspend and clear the TFSR_EL1
register after resume to prevent this to happen.

Subject: [PATCH v15 6/8] arm64: mte: Enable async tag check fault

MTE provides a mode that asynchronously updates the TFSR_EL1 register
when a tag check exception is detected.

To take advantage of this mode the kernel has to verify the status of
the register at:
1. Context switching
2. Return to user/EL0 (Not required in entry from EL0 since the kernel
did not run)
3. Kernel entry from EL1
4. Kernel exit to EL1

If the register is non-zero a trace is reported.

Add the required features for EL1 detection and reporting.

Note: ITFSB bit is set in the SCTLR_EL1 register hence it guaranties that
the indirect writes to TFSR_EL1 are synchronized at exception entry to
EL1. On the context switch path the synchronization is guarantied by the
dsb() in __switch_to().
The dsb(nsh) in mte_check_tfsr_exit() is provisional pending
confirmation by the architects.

Subject: [PATCH v15 8/8] kasan, arm64: tests supports for HW_TAGS async mode

From: Andrey Konovalov <[email protected]>

This change adds KASAN-KUnit tests support for the async HW_TAGS mode.

In async mode, tag fault aren't being generated synchronously when a
bad access happens, but are instead explicitly checked for by the kernel.

As each KASAN-KUnit test expect a fault to happen before the test is over,
check for faults as a part of the test handler.

Subject: [PATCH v15 5/8] arm64: mte: Enable TCO in functions that can read beyond buffer limits

load_unaligned_zeropad() and __get/put_kernel_nofault() functions can
read past some buffer limits which may include some MTE granule with a
different tag.

When MTE async mode is enabled, the load operation crosses the boundaries
and the next granule has a different tag the PE sets the TFSR_EL1.TF1 bit
as if an asynchronous tag fault is happened.

Enable Tag Check Override (TCO) in these functions before the load and
disable it afterwards to prevent this to happen.

Note: The same condition can be hit in MTE sync mode but we deal with it
through the exception handling.
In the current implementation, mte_async_mode flag is set only at boot
time but in future kasan might acquire some runtime features that
that change the mode dynamically, hence we disable it when sync mode is
selected for future proof.

You can write this with fewer lines:

DECLARE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(mte_async_mode);

static inline bool system_uses_mte_async_mode(void)
{
return IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS) &&
static_branch_unlikely(&mte_async_mode);
}

The compiler will ensure that mte_async_mode is not referred when
!CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS and therefore doesn't need to be defined.

Maybe keep these bracketed by #ifdef CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS. I think the
mte_enable_kernel_*() aren't needed either if KASAN_HW is disabled (you
can do it with an additional patch).

With these, you can add:

Yes, I agree, but I introduce "#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS" in the successive
patch anyway, according to me the overall code looks more uniform like this. But
I do not have a strong opinion or preference on this.

Ah, yes, I didn't look at patch 6 again as it was already reviewed and I
forgot the context. Leave it as it is then, my reviewed-by still stands.
