kasan, kmemleak: reset tags when scanning block
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Patch series "kasan, slub: reset tag when printing address", v3.

With hardware tag-based kasan enabled, we reset the tag when we access
metadata to avoid from false alarm.

This patch (of 2):

Kmemleak needs to scan kernel memory to check memory leak.  With hardware
tag-based kasan enabled, when it scans on the invalid slab and
dereference, the issue will occur as below.

Hardware tag-based KASAN doesn't use compiler instrumentation, we can not
use kasan_disable_current() to ignore tag check.

Based on the below report, there are 11 0xf7 granules, which amounts to
176 bytes, and the object is allocated from the kmalloc-256 cache.  So
when kmemleak accesses the last 256-176 bytes, it causes faults, as those
are marked with KASAN_KMALLOC_REDZONE == KASAN_TAG_INVALID == 0xfe.

Thus, we reset tags before accessing metadata to avoid from false positives.
