This patchset adds a new hardware tag-based mode to KASAN [1]. The new mode
is similar to the existing software tag-based KASAN, but relies on arm64
Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) [2] to perform memory and pointer tagging
(instead of shadow memory and compiler instrumentation).

This patchset is co-developed by
Vincenzo Frascino <vincenzo.frascino@arm.com>.

This patchset is available here:

https://github.com/xairy/linux/tree/up-kasan-mte-v7

and has also been uploaded to the Linux kernel Gerrit instance:

https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/3319

For testing in QEMU hardware tag-based KASAN requires:

1. QEMU built from master [4] (use "-machine virt,mte=on -cpu max" arguments
   to run).
2. GCC version 10.

====== Overview

The underlying ideas of the approach used by hardware tag-based KASAN are:

1. By relying on the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) arm64 CPU feature, pointer tags
   are stored in the top byte of each kernel pointer.

2. With the Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) arm64 CPU feature, memory tags
   for kernel memory allocations are stored in a dedicated memory not
   accessible via normal instuctions.

3. On each memory allocation, a random tag is generated, embedded it into
   the returned pointer, and the corresponding memory is tagged with the
   same tag value.

4. With MTE the CPU performs a check on each memory access to make sure
   that the pointer tag matches the memory tag.

5. On a tag mismatch the CPU generates a tag fault, and a KASAN report is
   printed.

Same as other KASAN modes, hardware tag-based KASAN is intended as a
debugging feature at this point.

====== Rationale

There are two main reasons for this new hardware tag-based mode:

1. Previously implemented software tag-based KASAN is being successfully
   used on dogfood testing devices due to its low memory overhead (as
   initially planned). The new hardware mode keeps the same low memory
   overhead, and is expected to have significantly lower performance
   impact, due to the tag checks being performed by the hardware.
   Therefore the new mode can be used as a better alternative in dogfood
   testing for hardware that supports MTE.

2. The new mode lays the groundwork for the planned in-kernel MTE-based
   memory corruption mitigation to be used in production.

====== Technical details

From the implementation perspective, hardware tag-based KASAN is almost
identical to the software mode. The key difference is using MTE for
assigning and checking tags.

Compared to the software mode, the hardware mode uses 4 bits per tag, as
dictated by MTE. Pointer tags are stored in bits [56:60), the top 4 bits
have the normal value 0xF. Having less distict tags increases the
probablity of false negatives (from ~1/256 to ~1/16) in certain cases.

Only synchronous exceptions are set up and used by hardware tag-based KASAN.

====== Benchmarks

Note: all measurements have been performed with software emulation of Memory
Tagging Extension, performance numbers for hardware tag-based KASAN on the
actual hardware are expected to be better.

Boot time [1]:
* 2.8 sec for clean kernel
* 5.7 sec for hardware tag-based KASAN
* 11.8 sec for software tag-based KASAN
* 11.6 sec for generic KASAN

Slab memory usage after boot [2]:
* 7.0 kb for clean kernel
* 9.7 kb for hardware tag-based KASAN
* 9.7 kb for software tag-based KASAN
* 41.3 kb for generic KASAN

Measurements have been performed with:
* defconfig-based configs
* Manually built QEMU master
* QEMU arguments: -machine virt,mte=on -cpu max
* CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE disabled
* CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE enabled
* clang-10 as the compiler and gcc-10 as the assembler
    
[1] Time before the ext4 driver is initialized.
[2] Measured as `cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab`.

====== History

Changes v6->v7:
(Andrey:)
- Rebase onto 5.10-rc2.
- Fix pgd_t not defined build warning on s390.
- Mark kasan_init_depth() as static.
- Don't use mte_*() functions directly in report_hw_tags.c
- Add hw_ prefix to KASAN-level definitions of arch_*() tag helpers.
- Add missing <sched/task_stack.h> include to report_generic.h.

Changes v5->v6:
(Vincenzo:)
- Re-based on 5.10-rc1.
- Modified the flow of the mte fault handler in order to address an issue
  with word at a time routines that would affect Android init process.
- Dropped Reviewed-by from the involved patches.
(Andrey:)
- Properly use #if CONFIG_KASAN_STACK instead of #ifdef
  CONFIG_KASAN_STACK_ENABLE.
- Expand CONFIG_KASAN checks in arch/arm64/kernel/kaslr.c and
  arch/arm64/kernel/module.c.
- Don't select CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS for HW_TAGS mode.
- Check PageSlab() in addr_has_metadata().

Changes v4->v5:
(Vincenzo:)
- Reset the tag associated by the kernel to a page when this is changed by
  the user.
- Add a kselftest to verify that GCR_EL1 is preserved during context
  switch.
- Squashed the TBI patch.
- Addressed some review comments.
- Verified the series with LTP.
(Andrey:)
- Put core arm64 patches first as requested by Catalin.

Changes v3->v4:
(Vincenzo:)
- Introduced mte-def.h that contains MTE definitions.
- Moved __MTE_PREAMBLE in mte.h.
- Clarified which API is part of mte-kasan.h.
- Removed tsk argument from mte_set_kernel_gcr().
- Addressed several nitpicks pointed out during review.
(Andrey:)
- Move include <asm/kasan.h> in include/linux/kasan.h to avoid build
  failures.
- Don't move "select SLUB_DEBUG if SLUB" back and forth between patches
  in KASAN Kconfig.
- Add arm64 prefix to "kasan: don't allow SW_TAGS with ARM64_MTE" commit.
- Don't add braces when defining KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE.
- Make KASAN_HW_TAGS compatible with init_on_alloc/free.

Changes v2->v3:
(Vincenzo:)
- Use ARM64_ASM_PREAMBLE for asm macros.
- Rename mte-helper.h to mte-kasan.h. The new header is meant to contain
  only macros and prototypes directly used in KASAN. The rest is defined
  in mte.h.
- Update mte_get_mem_tag()/mte_get_random_tag() to used directly asm
  volatile() macros instead of calling library functions.
- Harden mte_assign_mem_tag_range() to prevent an infinite loop in case of
  unaligned size.
- Made sure that report_tag_fault() is executed only once.
- Simplify the mte code in __cpu_setup.
- Remove kprobes.h from mte.c includes.
- General cleanup of the code.
(Andrey:)
- Use READ/WRITE_ONCE when accessing reported in do_tag_recovery().
- Move .unreq mte_tcr under CONFIG_ARM64_MTE to avoid build errors when MTE
  is not enabled.
- Improve mm/kasan/shadow.c comment header.
- Clarify what is a memory granule in "kasan: rename KASAN_SHADOW_* to
  KASAN_GRANULE_" commit description.
- Rename (report_)tags_sw/hw.c to to (report_)sw/hw_tags.c and drop
  unnecessary rename commit.
- Adopt 100 lines limit for some mm/kasan/ changes.
- Align arguments for stack_trace_save() call in mm/slub.c.
- Restore comment before kasan_init_tags().
- Remove GNU headers from all mm/kasan/ files.
- Simplify check_invalid_free() implementation tag-based modes.
- Drop subsequently removed report_tag_fault() implementation.
- Add KASAN_GRANULE_PAGE and use instead of PAGE_SIZE * KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE.
- Move kasan_enable/disable_current() declarations to simplify
  include/linux/kasan.h.
- Drop dependency on CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG.
- Clarify the purpose of CONFIG_STACKTRACE in KASAN Kconfig.

Changes v1->v2:
- Rebase onto v10 of the user MTE patchset.
- Only enable in-kernel MTE when KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled.
- Add a layer of arch-level indirection, so KASAN doesn't call MTE helpers
  directly (this will be useful in case more architectures will add support
  for HW_TAGS).
- Don't do arm64_skip_faulting_instruction() on MTE fault, disable MTE
  instead.
- Don't allow software tags with MTE via arch/arm64/Kconfig instead of
  lib/Kconfig.kasan.
- Rename mm/kasan/tags.c to tags_sw.c and mte.c to tags_hw.c, and do the
  same for report_*.c files.
- Reword HW_TAGS Kconfig help text to make it less MTE specific.
- Reword and clarify Documentation.
- Drop unnecessary is_el1_mte_sync_tag_check_fault().
- Change report_tag_fault() to only call kasan_report() once HW_TAGS is
  introduced.
- Rename arch/arm64/include/asm/mte_asm.h to mte-helpers.h and move all
  MTE-related defines and some helper functions there.
- Change mm/kasan/kasan.h to include mte-def.h instead of mte.h.
- Add WARN_ON() on unaligned size to mte_set_mem_tag_range().
- Implement ldg/irg MTE routines as inline assembly.
- Remove smp_wmb() from mte_set_mem_tag_range().
- Drop __must_check from mte_set_mem_tag_range() as KASAN has no use for
  the return value.
- Drop zero size check from mte_assign_mem_tag_range().
- Drop unnecessary include <asm/kasan.h> from low-level arm64 code.
- Move enabling TBI1 into __cpu_setup().
- Drop stale comment about callee-saved register from
  arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S.
- Mark gcr_kernel_excl as __ro_after_init.
- Use GENMASK() in mte_init_tags().
