* hwasan: Move memory access checks into small outlined functions on aarch64.Peter Collingbourne2019-01-231-12/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each hwasan check requires emitting a small piece of code like this: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/HardwareAssistedAddressSanitizerDesign.html#memory-accesses The problem with this is that these code blocks typically bloat code size significantly. An obvious solution is to outline these blocks of code. In fact, this has already been implemented under the -hwasan-instrument-with-calls flag. However, as currently implemented this has a number of problems: - The functions use the same calling convention as regular C functions. This means that the backend must spill all temporary registers as required by the platform's C calling convention, even though the check only needs two registers on the hot path. - The functions take the address to be checked in a fixed register, which increases register pressure. Both of these factors can diminish the code size effect and increase the performance hit of -hwasan-instrument-with-calls. The solution that this patch implements is to involve the aarch64 backend in outlining the checks. An intrinsic and pseudo-instruction are created to represent a hwasan check. The pseudo-instruction is register allocated like any other instruction, and we allow the register allocator to select almost any register for the address to check. A particular combination of (register selection, type of check) triggers the creation in the backend of a function to handle the check for specifically that pair. The resulting functions are deduplicated by the linker. The pseudo-instruction (really the function) is specified to preserve all registers except for the registers that the AAPCS specifies may be clobbered by a call. To measure the code size and performance effect of this change, I took a number of measurements using Chromium for Android on aarch64, comparing a browser with inlined checks (the baseline) against a browser with outlined checks. Code size: Size of .text decreases from 243897420 to 171619972 bytes, or a 30% decrease. Performance: Using Chromium's blink_perf.layout microbenchmarks I measured a median performance regression of 6.24%. The fact that a perf/size tradeoff is evident here suggests that we might want to make the new behaviour conditional on -Os/-Oz. But for now I've enabled it unconditionally, my reasoning being that hwasan users typically expect a relatively large perf hit, and ~6% isn't really adding much. We may want to revisit this decision in the future, though. I also tried experimenting with varying the number of registers selectable by the hwasan check pseudo-instruction (which would result in fewer variants being created), on the hypothesis that creating fewer variants of the function would expose another perf/size tradeoff by reducing icache pressure from the check functions at the cost of register pressure. Although I did observe a code size increase with fewer registers, I did not observe a strong correlation between the number of registers and the performance of the resulting browser on the microbenchmarks, so I conclude that we might as well use ~all registers to get the maximum code size improvement. My results are below: Regs | .text size | Perf hit -----+------------+--------- ~all | 171619972 | 6.24% 16 | 171765192 | 7.03% 8 | 172917788 | 5.82% 4 | 177054016 | 6.89% Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D56954 llvm-svn: 351920
* hwasan: add -fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress flagAndrey Konovalov2018-04-131-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | This patch adds -fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress flag, that essentially enables -hwasan-kernel=1 -hwasan-recover=1 -hwasan-match-all-tag=0xff. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D45046 llvm-svn: 330044
* hwasan: add -hwasan-match-all-tag flagEvgeniy Stepanov2018-04-041-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes instead of storing addresses as is, the kernel stores the address of a page and an offset within that page, and then computes the actual address when it needs to make an access. Because of this the pointer tag gets lost (gets set to 0xff). The solution is to ignore all accesses tagged with 0xff. This patch adds a -hwasan-match-all-tag flag to hwasan, which allows to ignore accesses through pointers with a particular pointer tag value for validity. Patch by Andrey Konovalov.

* [hwasan] Fix inline instrumentation.Evgeniy Stepanov2018-02-211-12/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes hwasan inline instrumentation: Fixes address untagging for shadow address calculation (use 0xFF instead of 0x00 for the top byte). Emits brk instruction instead of hlt for the kernel and user space. Use 0x900 instead of 0x100 for brk immediate (0x100 - 0x800 are unavailable in the kernel). Fixes and adds appropriate tests.

* [hwasan] LLVM-level flags for linux kernel-compatible hwasan instrumentation.Evgeniy Stepanov2018-01-171-0/+27
Summary: -hwasan-mapping-offset defines the non-zero shadow base address. -hwasan-kernel disables calls to __hwasan_init in module constructors. Unlike ASan, -hwasan-kernel does not force callback instrumentation. This is controlled separately with -hwasan-instrument-with-calls.
