commit 007f5da43b3d0ecff972e2616062b8da1f862f5e upstream.
Patch series "kasan: vmalloc: Fixes for the percpu allocator and vrealloc", v3.
Patches fix two issues related to KASAN and vmalloc.
The first one, a KASAN tag mismatch, possibly resulting in a kernel panic, can be observed on systems with a tag-based KASAN enabled and with multiple NUMA nodes. Initially it was only noticed on x86 [1] but later a similar issue was also reported on arm64 [2].
Specifically the problem is related to how vm_structs interact with pcpu_chunks - both when they are allocated, assigned and when pcpu_chunk addresses are derived.
When vm_structs are allocated they are unpoisoned, each with a different random tag, if vmalloc support is enabled along the KASAN mode. Later when first pcpu chunk is allocated it gets its 'base_addr' field set to the first allocated vm_struct. With that it inherits that vm_struct's tag.
When pcpu_chunk addresses are later derived (by pcpu_chunk_addr(), for example in pcpu_alloc_noprof()) the base_addr field is used and offsets are added to it. If the initial conditions are satisfied then some of the offsets will point into memory allocated with a different vm_struct. So while the lower bits will get accurately derived the tag bits in the top of the pointer won't match the shadow memory contents.
The solution (proposed at v2 of the x86 KASAN series [3]) is to unpoison the vm_structs with the same tag when allocating them for the per cpu allocator (in pcpu_get_vm_areas()).
The second one reported by syzkaller [4] is related to vrealloc and happens because of random tag generation when unpoisoning memory without allocating new pages. This breaks shadow memory tracking and needs to reuse the existing tag instead of generating a new one. At the same time an inconsistency in used flags is corrected.
This patch (of 3):
Syzkaller reported a memory out-of-bounds bug [4]. This patch fixes two issues:
1. In vrealloc the KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC flag is missing when unpoisoning the extended region. This flag is required to correctly associate the allocation with KASAN's vmalloc tracking.
Note: In contrast, vzalloc (via __vmalloc_node_range_noprof) explicitly sets KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC and calls kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() with it. vrealloc must behave consistently -- especially when reusing existing vmalloc regions -- to ensure KASAN can track allocations correctly.
2. When vrealloc reuses an existing vmalloc region (without allocating new pages) KASAN generates a new tag, which breaks tag-based memory access tracking.
Introduce KASAN_VMALLOC_KEEP_TAG, a new KASAN flag that allows reusing the tag already attached to the pointer, ensuring consistent tag behavior during reallocation.
Pass KASAN_VMALLOC_KEEP_TAG and KASAN_VMALLOC_VM_ALLOC to the kasan_unpoison_vmalloc inside vrealloc_node_align_noprof().
