arm64: kasan: Switch to using KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is a constant that is supplied to gcc as a command
line argument and affects the codegen of the inline address sanetiser.
Essentially, for an example memory access:
*ptr1 = val;
The compiler will insert logic similar to the below:
shadowValue = *(ptr1 >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET)
if (somethingWrong(shadowValue))
flagAnError();
This code sequence is inserted into many places, thus
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is essentially baked into many places in the kernel
text.
If we want to run a single kernel binary with multiple address spaces,
then we need to do this with KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET fixed.
Thankfully, due to the way the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is used to provide
shadow addresses we know that the end of the shadow region is constant
w.r.t. VA space size:
KASAN_SHADOW_END = ~0 >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
This means that if we increase the size of the VA space, the start of
the KASAN region expands into lower addresses whilst the end of the
KASAN region is fixed.
Currently the arm64 code computes KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET at build time via
build scripts with the VA size used as a parameter. (There are build
time checks in the C code too to ensure that expected values are being
derived). It is sufficient, and indeed is a simplification, to remove
the build scripts (and build time checks) entirely and instead provide
KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET values.
This patch removes the logic to compute the KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET in the
arm64 Makefile, and instead we adopt the approach used by x86 to supply
offset values in kConfig. To help debug/develop future VA space changes,
the Makefile logic has been preserved in a script file in the arm64
Documentation folder.
