arm64: fix strlen() with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS
When the kernel is built with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS and the CPU supports MTE, memory accesses are checked at 16-byte granularity, and out-of-bounds accesses can result in tag check faults. Our current implementation of strlen() makes unaligned 16-byte accesses (within a naturally aligned 4096-byte window), and can trigger tag check faults. This can be seen at boot time, e.g. | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in __pi_strlen+0x14/0x150 | Read at addr f4ff0000c0028300 by task swapper/0/0 | Pointer tag: [f4], memory tag: [fe] | | CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.13.0-09550-g03c2813535a2-dirty torvalds#20 | Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) | Call trace: | dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1b0 | show_stack+0x1c/0x30 | dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x84 | print_address_description+0x7c/0x2b4 | kasan_report+0x138/0x38c | __do_kernel_fault+0x190/0x1c4 | do_tag_check_fault+0x78/0x90 | do_mem_abort+0x44/0xb4 | el1_abort+0x40/0x60 | el1h_64_sync_handler+0xb0/0xd0 | el1h_64_sync+0x78/0x7c | __pi_strlen+0x14/0x150 | __register_sysctl_table+0x7c4/0x890 | register_leaf_sysctl_tables+0x1a4/0x210 | register_leaf_sysctl_tables+0xc8/0x210 | __register_sysctl_paths+0x22c/0x290 | register_sysctl_table+0x2c/0x40 | sysctl_init+0x20/0x30 | proc_sys_init+0x3c/0x48 | proc_root_init+0x80/0x9c | start_kernel+0x640/0x69c | __primary_switched+0xc0/0xc8 To fix this, we can reduce the (strlen-internal) MIN_PAGE_SIZE to 16 bytes when CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS is selected. This will cause strlen() to align the base pointer downwards to a 16-byte boundary, and to discard the additional prefix bytes without counting them. All subsequent accesses will be 16-byte aligned 16-byte LDPs. While the comments say the body of the loop will access 32 bytes, this is performed as two 16-byte acceses, with the second made only if the first did not encounter a NUL byte, so the body of the loop will not over-read across a 16-byte boundary. No other string routines are affected. The other str*() routines will not make any access which straddles a 16-byte boundary, and the mem*() routines will only make acceses which straddle a 16-byte boundary when which is entirely within the bounds of the relevant base and size arguments.
