Subject: KASAN_INLINE && patchable-function-entry
Hi Torsten,
I've hit a rather unfortunate edge-case when trying to boot an arm64
kernel configured with KASAN_INLINE && FTRACE_WITH_REGS && !MODULES.
I'm not sure if the compiler behaviour is intentional or not, so I've
dumped the relevant details here. There might be a larger set of
problems, so please see the queries at the end (e.g. w.r.t. the naked
attribute).
As a heads-up to the ftrace folk, I think it's possible to work around
this specific issue in the kernel by allowing the arch code to filter
out call sites at init time (probably in ftrace_init_nop()), but I
haven't put that together yet.
When booting a kernel with those options, there's a boot-time splat:

AFAICT, using -fpatchable-function-entry instruments some functions
implicitly generated by the compiler. In this case, that's the
_GLOBAL__sub_D_65535_0_* function, which GCC generated to unregister
KASAN globals, and placed in .exit.text.
The kernel doesn't treat .exit.text as core_kernel_text(), so when built
without modules, the arm64 ftrace init code kernel refuses to patch this
site at init time. When built with modules we assume that any
!core_kernel_text() address is a module address, and happen to silently
get away with this.
In contrast, using -pg does not instrument those functions at all, so
I'm not sure if -fpatchable-function-entry was intended to do something
different here, or whether this is a bug.
To demonstrate, consider the following (saved as test.c):
| unsigned long foo = 0;
Compiling with:
$ aarch64-linux-gcc -pg -fsanitize=kernel-address \
-fasan-shadow-offset=0xdfffa00000000000 --param asan-globals=1 \
--param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -c test.c
... gives (per objdump -d):

Was it intended that -fpatachable-function-entry behaved differently
from -pg in this regard?
Is this likely to be problematic for other users?
Are there other implicitly-generated functions we need to look out for
here, for which this would be a problem?
It looks like this also applies to __attribute__((naked)) on ARM, which
seems like a bug given the GCC manual says:
| naked
|
| This attribute allows the compiler to construct the requisite
| function declaration, while allowing the body of the function to be
| assembly code. The specified function will not have
| prologue/epilogue sequences generated by the compiler. Only basic
| asm statements can safely be included in naked functions (see Basic
| Asm). While using extended asm or a mixture of basic asm and C code
| may appear to work, they cannot be depended upon to work reliably
| and are not supported.
... and here an unexpected prologue sequence (of NOPs) is being added.
That could trip up anyone relying on the size of the function or offsets
within it.
Thanks,
Mark.
