Subject: [PATCH v5 13/19] kasan: x86: Handle int3 for inline KASAN reports
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2025 22:24:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <36c0e5e9d875addc42a73168b8090144c327ec9f.1756151769.git.maciej.wieczor-retman@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1756151769.git.maciej.wieczor-retman@intel.com>
Inline KASAN on x86 does tag mismatch reports by passing the faulty
address and metadata through the INT3 instruction - scheme that's setup
in the LLVM's compiler code (specifically HWAddressSanitizer.cpp).
Add a kasan hook to the INT3 handling function.
Disable KASAN in an INT3 core kernel selftest function since it can raise
a false tag mismatch report and potentially panic the kernel.
Make part of that hook - which decides whether to die or recover from a
tag mismatch - arch independent to avoid duplicating a long comment on
both x86 and arm64 architectures.
Signed-off-by: Maciej Wieczor-Retman <maciej.wieczor-retman@intel.com>
---
Changelog v5:
- Add die to argument list of kasan_inline_recover() in
arch/arm64/kernel/traps.c.
Changelog v4:
- Make kasan_handler() a stub in a header file. Remove #ifdef from
traps.c.
- Consolidate the "recover" comment into one place.
- Make small changes to the patch message.
