1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. But for LoongArch,
There are a lot of holes between different segments and valid address
space (256T available) is insufficient to map all these segments to kasan
shadow memory with the common formula provided by kasan core, saying
(addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
So LoongArch has a arch-specific mapping formula, different segments are
mapped individually, and only limited space lengths of these specific
segments are mapped to shadow.
At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just one
physical page (kasan_early_shadow_page). Later, this page is reused as
readonly zero shadow for some memory that kasan currently don't track.
After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are allocated
and mapped.
Functions like memset()/memcpy()/memmove() do a lot of memory accesses.
If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important to be
caught. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since these functions
are written in assembly.
KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants.
Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions in
mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases
with '__' prefix in names, so we could call non-instrumented variant
if needed.

KASAN's boot time kernel parameter 'kasan.fault=' currently supports
'report' and 'panic', which results in either only reporting bugs or also
panicking on reports.
However, some users may wish to have more control over when KASAN reports
result in a kernel panic: in particular, KASAN reported invalid _writes_
are of special interest, because they have greater potential to corrupt
random kernel memory or be more easily exploited.
To panic on invalid writes only, introduce 'kasan.fault=panic_on_write',
which allows users to choose to continue running on invalid reads, but
panic only on invalid writes.

The default timeout for selftests tests is 45 seconds. Although
we already have 13 settings for tests of about 96 sefltests which
use a timeout greater than this, we want to try to avoid encouraging
more tests to forcing a higher test timeout as selftests strives to
run all tests quickly. Selftests also uses the timeout as a non-fatal
error. Only tests runners which have control over a system would know
if to treat a timeout as fatal or not.
To help with all this:
o Enhance documentation to avoid future increases of insane timeouts
o Add the option to allow overriding the default timeout with test
runners with a command line option

KUnit has several macros and functions intended for use from non-test
code. These hooks, currently the kunit_get_current_test() and
kunit_fail_current_test() macros, didn't work when CONFIG_KUNIT=m.
In order to support this case, the required functions and static data
need to be available unconditionally, even when KUnit itself is not
built-in. The new 'hooks.c' file is therefore always included, and has
both the static key required for kunit_get_current_test(), and a table
of function pointers in struct kunit_hooks_table. This is filled in with
the real implementations by kunit_install_hooks(), which is kept in
hooks-impl.h and called when the kunit module is loaded.
This can be extended for future features which require similar
"hook" behaviour, such as static stubs, by simply adding new entries to
the struct, and the appropriate code to set them.

As Hardware Tag-Based KASAN is intended to be used in production, its
performance impact is crucial. As page_alloc allocations tend to be big,
tagging and checking all such allocations can introduce a significant
slowdown.
Add two new boot parameters that allow to alleviate that slowdown:
- kasan.page_alloc.sample, which makes Hardware Tag-Based KASAN tag only
every Nth page_alloc allocation with the order configured by the second
added parameter (default: tag every such allocation).
- kasan.page_alloc.sample.order, which makes sampling enabled by the first
parameter only affect page_alloc allocations with the order equal or
greater than the specified value (default: 3, see below).
The exact performance improvement caused by using the new parameters
depends on their values and the applied workload.
The chosen default value for kasan.page_alloc.sample.order is 3, which
matches both PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER and SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER. This is
done for two reasons:
1. PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is "the order at which allocations are deemed
costly to service", which corresponds to the idea that only large and
thus costly allocations are supposed to sampled.
2. One of the workloads targeted by this patch is a benchmark that sends
a large amount of data over a local loopback connection. Most multi-page
data allocations in the networking subsystem have the order of
SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER (or PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER).
When running a local loopback test on a testing MTE-enabled device in sync
mode, enabling Hardware Tag-Based KASAN introduces a ~50% slowdown.
Applying this patch and setting kasan.page_alloc.sampling to a value
higher than 1 allows to lower the slowdown. The performance improvement
saturates around the sampling interval value of 10 with the default
sampling page order of 3. This lowers the slowdown to ~20%. The slowdown
in real scenarios involving the network will likely be better.
Enabling page_alloc sampling has a downside: KASAN misses bad accesses to
a page_alloc allocation that has not been tagged. This lowers the value
of KASAN as a security mitigation.
However, based on measuring the number of page_alloc allocations of
different orders during boot in a test build, sampling with the default
kasan.page_alloc.sample.order value affects only ~7% of allocations. The
rest ~93% of allocations are still checked deterministically.

and the description of a test can be "any sequence of words
(can't include #)" which specifies that there may be more than
one word but does not specify anything other than those words
which might be used to separate the words which probably isn't
what we want. Given that practically we have tests using a range
of separators for words including combinations of spaces and
combinations of other symbols like underscores or punctuation
let's just clarify that the description can contain any character
other than # (marking the start of the directive/diagnostic) or
newline (marking the end of this test result).

In order to detect if a KUnit test is running, and to access its
context, the 'kunit_test' member of the current task_struct is used.
Usually, this is accessed directly or via the kunit_fail_current_task()
function.
In order to speed up the case where no test is running, add a wrapper,
kunit_get_current_test(), which uses the static key to fail early.
Equally, Speed up kunit_fail_current_test() by using the static key.
This should make it convenient for code to call this
unconditionally in fakes or error paths, without worrying that this will
slow the code down significantly.
If CONFIG_KUNIT=n (or m), this compiles away to nothing. If
CONFIG_KUNIT=y, it will compile down to a NOP (on most architectures) if
no KUnit test is currently running.
Note that kunit_get_current_test() does not work if KUnit is built as a
module. This mirrors the existing restriction on kunit_fail_current_test().
Note that the definition of kunit_fail_current_test() still wraps an
empty, inline function if KUnit is not built-in. This is to ensure that
the printf format string __attribute__ will still work.
Also update the documentation to suggest users use the new
kunit_get_current_test() function, update the example, and to describe
the behaviour when KUnit is disabled better.

kunit_tool's --alltests option was changed in commit
980ac3ad05 ("kunit: tool: rename all_test_uml.config, use it for --alltests")
to use a manually curated list of architecture-indpendent Kconfig
options, rather than attempting to use make allyesconfig on UML, which
was broken.
Update the kunit_tool documentation to reflect the new behaviour of
--alltests.

This KUnit update for Linux 6.1-rc1 consists of several documentation
fixes, UML related cleanups, and a feature to enable/disable KUnit
tests. This update includes the following change to
- rename all_test_uml.config, use it for --alltests
Note: if anyone was using all_tests_uml.config, this change breaks them.
This change simplifies the usage and eliminates the need to type:
--kunitconfig=tools/testing/kunit/configs/all_tests_uml.config.
A simple workaround to create a symlink to the new name can solve the
problem for anyone using all_tests_uml.config.
all_tests_uml.config should work across ~all architectures.

Instead of using a large static array, allocate the stack ring dynamically
via memblock_alloc().
The size of the stack ring is controlled by a new kasan.stack_ring_size
command-line parameter. When kasan.stack_ring_size is not provided, the
default value of 32 << 10 is used.
When the stack trace collection is disabled via kasan.stacktrace=off, the
stack ring is not allocated.

Add support for the kasan.stacktrace command-line argument for Software
Tag-Based KASAN.
The following patch adds a command-line argument for selecting the stack
ring size, and, as the stack ring is supported by both the Software and
the Hardware Tag-Based KASAN modes, it is natural that both of them have
support for kasan.stacktrace too.

The numbered list contains full path to every files that need to be
modified or created in order to implement misc-example kunit test.
Except for .kunitconfig. Which might make a newcommer confused about
where the file exists. Since there are multiple .kunitconfig files.
Fix this by using the full path to .kunitconfig.
