Resent GCC version(at least GCC10) made outline-atomics as the default option(unlike Clang), which will cause linker errors for kernel/kcsan/core.o. Disables the out-of-line atomics by no-outline-atomics to fix the linker errors. Tested selftest and kcsan_test(built with GCC11 and Clang 13), and all passed.

Nice! I think there are a few additional bits and pieces we'll need: * Prior to clang 12.0.0, KCSAN would produce warnings with BTI, as I found in: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mark/linux.git/commit/?h=arm64/kcsan&id=2d67c39ae4f619ca94d9790e09186e77922fa826 Since BTI is in defconfig, I think arm64's Kconfig should require a minimum of clang 12.0.0 to enable KCSAN. * In the past clang did not have an attribute to suppress tsan instrumenation and would instrument noinstr regions. I'm not sure when clang gained the relevant attribute to supress this, but we will need to depend on this existing, either based on the clang version or with a test for the attribute. (If we're lucky, clang 12.0.0 is sufficient, and we solve BTI and this in one go). I *think* GCC always had an attribute, but I'm not certain. Marco, is there an existing dependency somewhere for this to work on x86? I thought there was an objtool pass to NOP this out, but I couldn't find it in mainline. If x86 is implicitly depending on a sufficiently recent version of clang, we add something to the common KCSAN Kconfig for ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR? * There are some latent issues with some code (e.g. alternatives, patching, insn) code being instrumentable even though this is unsound, and depending on compiler choices this can happen to be fine or can result in boot-time failures (I saw lockups when I started trying to add KCSAN for arm64). While this isn't just a KCSAN problem, fixing that requires some fairly significant rework to a bunch of code, and until that's done we're on very shaky ground. So I'd like to make KCSAN depend on EXPERT for now. I had an initial stab at fixing some of that, e.g. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mark/linux.git/log/?h=arm64/patching/rework Joey has started looking into this too. * When I last tested, for simple boots I would get frequent KCSAN splats for a few common issues, and those drowned out all other reports. One case was manipulation of thread_info::flags, which Thomas Gleixner has queued some fixes at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/log/?h=core/entry There were some other common failures, e.g. accesses to task_struct::on_cpu, and I hadn't had the chance to investigate/fix those, beyond a (likely unsound) hack: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mark/linux.git/commit/?h=arm64/kcsan&id=4fe9d6c2ef85257d80291086e4514eaaebd3504e It would be good if we could identify the most frequent problems (e.g. those that will occur when just booting) before we enable this generally, to avoid everyone racing to report/fix those as soon as we enable the feature. When you tested, did KCSAN flag anything beyond the selftests? > > Signed-off-by: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> > --- > Tested on Qemu with clang 13 / gcc 11, based on 5.16-rc3. > > [ 0.221518] kcsan: enabled early > [ 0.222422] kcsan: strict mode configured > ... > [ 5.839223] kcsan: selftest: 3/3 tests passed > ... > [ 517.895102] # kcsan: pass:24 fail:0 skip:0 total:24 > [ 517.896393] # Totals: pass:168 fail:0 skip:0 total:168 > [ 517.897502] ok 1 - kcsan > > v2: > - tested on GCC11 and disable outline-atomics for kernel/kcsan/core.c > suggested by Marco Elver > > arch/arm64/Kconfig | 1 + > arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile | 1 + > arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/Makefile | 1 + > kernel/kcsan/Makefile | 1 + > 4 files changed, 4 insertions(+) Aside from the `-mno-outline-atomics` portion, this looks basically the same as what I had in: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mark/linux.git/commit/?h=arm64/kcsan&id=2d67c39ae4f619ca94d9790e09186e77922fa826 ... so this looks good to me modulo the comments above.

Apologies for the confusion w.r.t. attributes and which sanitizers on which compilers respect which attributes. I think you may be confusing things with KCOV (see 540540d06e9d9). I think the various 'select ARCH_HAS_KCOV' may need adjusting, that is true. But KCOV != KCSAN, and for KCSAN the story is different. Since the first version of KCSAN in 5.8, we've had a working __no_kcsan (aka __no_sanitize_thread) with all versions of Clang and GCC that support KCSAN (see HAVE_KCSAN_COMPILER). The recent discussion was for CONFIG_KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY [1], because Clang's no_sanitize("thread") would still instrument builtin atomics and __tsan_func_{entry,exit}, which only that mode would start inserting instrumentation for. That's not in mainline yet. [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211130114433.2580590-1-elver@google.com It is true that v1 and v2 of that series would have caused issues on arm64, but after our discussion last week and tried a little harder and v3 does the right thing for all architectures now and __no_kcsan will disable all instrumentation (even for barriers). So the attribute and noinstr story should not need anything else, and the new KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY has all right Kconfig dependencies in place when it lands in mainline. > * There are some latent issues with some code (e.g. alternatives, patching, insn) > code being instrumentable even though this is unsound, and depending on > compiler choices this can happen to be fine or can result in boot-time > failures (I saw lockups when I started trying to add KCSAN for arm64). > > While this isn't just a KCSAN problem, fixing that requires some fairly > significant rework to a bunch of code, and until that's done we're on very > shaky ground. So I'd like to make KCSAN depend on EXPERT for now. I take it you mean arm64 should do 'select HAVE_ARCH_KCSAN if EXPERT'. I certainly don't mind, but usually folks interested in running debug tools won't be stopped by a dependency on EXPERT. You could do 'select HAVE_ARCH_KCSAN if BROKEN' which is more likely to prevent usage while things are still likely to be broken on arm64.

My memory was hazy; I recalled that KCOV was broken in that way, and thought KCSAN was similarly affected because of the objtool patches. I'm glad to hear that's not the case! Since I'm a bit paranoid about this, I'd still like to check that the supported version (clang 12+, and whatever GCC versions are relevant), but that should just be a matter of eyeballing the object code, and I'm happy to go do that as a review step. > The recent discussion was for CONFIG_KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY [1], because > Clang's no_sanitize("thread") would still instrument builtin atomics and > __tsan_func_{entry,exit}, which only that mode would start inserting > instrumentation for.

TBH, I've gone back-and-forth on this and I'm also happy to go without if people don't like it. I had wanted this because I had previously hit issues, but the problem is admittedly not unique to KCSAN. If we do encounter boot time failures in practice we can mark it as BROKEN and go from there. Maybe it would be sufficient to have some Kconfig text noting there are currently some potential soundness issues with instrumentation, just to give people a heads-up. The EXPERT dependency was just a way to make people think twice.

I don't have different clang version to test, when check KCSAN, commit eb32f9f990d9 ("kcsan: Improve some Kconfig comments") saids, The compiler instruments plain compound read-write operations differently (++, --, +=, -=, |=, &=, etc.), which allows KCSAN to distinguish them from other plain accesses. This is currently supported by Clang 12 or later.

Clang 12 merely improves some instrumentation, which is what this comment is about. What Mark meant is that there's a specific issue with arm64 and BTI that is fixed by Clang 12.
