(Upstream commit 7771bdbbfd3d6f204631b6fd9e1bbc30cd15918e). Use after scope bugs detector seems to be almost entirely useless for the linux kernel. It exists over two years, but I've seen only one valid bug so far [1]. And the bug was fixed before it has been reported. There were some other use-after-scope reports, but they were false-positives due to different reasons like incompatibility with structleak plugin. This feature significantly increases stack usage, especially with GCC < 9 version, and causes a 32K stack overflow. It probably adds performance penalty too. Given all that, let's remove use-after-scope detector entirely. While preparing this patch I've noticed that we mistakenly enable use-after-scope detection for clang compiler regardless of CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA setting. This is also fixed now.

KASAN has two modes: generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan,
|
|
x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC) and
|
|
software tag-based KASAN (a version based on software memory
|
|
tagging, arm64 only, similar to userspace HWASan, enabled with
|
|
CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS).
|
|
Both generic and tag-based KASAN are strictly debugging features.

Enables generic KASAN mode.
|
|
Supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires version 4.9.2
|
|
or later for basic support and version 5.0 or later for detection of
|
|
out-of-bounds accesses for stack and global variables and for inline
|
|
instrumentation mode (CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE). With Clang it requires
|
|
version 3.7.0 or later and it doesn't support detection of
|
|
out-of-bounds accesses for global variables yet.
|
|
This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start
|
|
and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations.
|
|
The performance slowdown is ~x3.
|
|
For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.
|

Currently CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
|
|
(the resulting kernel does not boot).

Enables software tag-based KASAN mode.
|
|
This mode requires Top Byte Ignore support by the CPU and therefore
|
|
is only supported for arm64.
|
|
This mode requires Clang version 7.0.0 or later.
|
|
This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
|
|
and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
|
|
This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
|
|
casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
|
|
pointer.
|
|
For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.
|
|
Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
|
|

Before every memory access compiler insert function call

__asan_load*/__asan_store*. These functions performs check

much as inline does.

The LLVM stack address sanitizer has a know problem that
|
|
causes excessive stack usage in a lot of functions, see
|
|
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809
|
|
Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build
|
|
with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of
|
|
the functionality.
|
|
This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang-8
|
|
or earlier to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow
|
|
warnings, but clang-8 users can still enable it for builds without
|
|
CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST. On gcc and later clang versions it is
|
|
assumed to always be safe to use and enabled by default.

out of bounds accesses, use after free. It is useful for testing
