As said by Linus:
A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
Otherwise it's actively misleading.
In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
caller wants.
In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.
The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.
Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.
The renaming is done by using the command sequence:
git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'
followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

Patch series "Fix some incompatibilites between KASAN and FORTIFY_SOURCE", v4.
3 KASAN self-tests fail on a kernel with both KASAN and FORTIFY_SOURCE:
memchr, memcmp and strlen.
When FORTIFY_SOURCE is on, a number of functions are replaced with
fortified versions, which attempt to check the sizes of the operands.
However, these functions often directly invoke __builtin_foo() once they
have performed the fortify check. The compiler can detect that the
results of these functions are not used, and knows that they have no other
side effects, and so can eliminate them as dead code.
Why are only memchr, memcmp and strlen affected?
================================================
Of string and string-like functions, kasan_test tests:
* strchr -> not affected, no fortified version
* strrchr -> likewise
* strcmp -> likewise
* strncmp -> likewise
* strnlen -> not affected, the fortify source implementation calls the
underlying strnlen implementation which is instrumented, not
a builtin
* strlen -> affected, the fortify souce implementation calls a __builtin
version which the compiler can determine is dead.
* memchr -> likewise
* memcmp -> likewise
* memset -> not affected, the compiler knows that memset writes to its
first argument and therefore is not dead.
Why does this not affect the functions normally?
================================================
In string.h, these functions are not marked as __pure, so the compiler
cannot know that they do not have side effects. If relevant functions are
marked as __pure in string.h, we see the following warnings and the
functions are elided:
lib/test_kasan.c: In function `kasan_memchr':
lib/test_kasan.c:606:2: warning: statement with no effect [-Wunused-value]
memchr(ptr, '1', size + 1);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lib/test_kasan.c: In function `kasan_memcmp':
lib/test_kasan.c:622:2: warning: statement with no effect [-Wunused-value]
memcmp(ptr, arr, size+1);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lib/test_kasan.c: In function `kasan_strings':
lib/test_kasan.c:645:2: warning: statement with no effect [-Wunused-value]
strchr(ptr, '1');
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...
This annotation would make sense to add and could be added at any point,
so the behaviour of test_kasan.c should change.
The fix
=======
Make all the functions that are pure write their results to a global,
which makes them live. The strlen and memchr tests now pass.
The memcmp test still fails to trigger, which is addressed in the next
patch.

Use after scope bugs detector seems to be almost entirely useless for
the linux kernel. It exists over two years, but I've seen only one
valid bug so far [1]. And the bug was fixed before it has been
reported. There were some other use-after-scope reports, but they were
false-positives due to different reasons like incompatibility with
structleak plugin.
This feature significantly increases stack usage, especially with GCC <
9 version, and causes a 32K stack overflow. It probably adds
performance penalty too.
Given all that, let's remove use-after-scope detector entirely.
While preparing this patch I've noticed that we mistakenly enable
use-after-scope detection for clang compiler regardless of
CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA setting. This is also fixed now.

Arch code may have asm implementation of string/memory API functions
instead of using generic one from lib/string.c. KASAN don't see memory
accesses in asm code, thus can miss many bugs.
E.g. on ARM64 KASAN don't see bugs in memchr(), memcmp(), str[r]chr(),
str[n]cmp(), str[n]len(). Add tests for these functions to be sure that
we notice the problem on other architectures.

Variable real_size is initialized with a value that is never read, it is
re-assigned a new value later on, hence the initialization is redundant
and can be removed.

Patch series "kasan: detect invalid frees".
KASAN detects double-frees, but does not detect invalid-frees (when a
pointer into a middle of heap object is passed to free). We recently had
a very unpleasant case in crypto code which freed an inner object inside
of a heap allocation. This left unnoticed during free, but totally
corrupted heap and later lead to a bunch of random crashes all over kernel
code.
Detect invalid frees.
This patch (of 5):
Detect frees of pointers into middle of large heap objects.
I dropped const from kasan_kfree_large() because it starts propagating
through a bunch of functions in kasan_report.c, slab/slub nearest_obj(),
all of their local variables, fixup_red_left(), etc.

Disable kasan after the first report. There are several reasons for
this:
- Single bug quite often has multiple invalid memory accesses causing
storm in the dmesg.
- Write OOB access might corrupt metadata so the next report will print
bogus alloc/free stacktraces.
- Reports after the first easily could be not bugs by itself but just
side effects of the first one.
Given that multiple reports usually only do harm, it makes sense to
disable kasan after the first one. If user wants to see all the
reports, the boot-time parameter kasan_multi_shot must be used.

Make a kasan test which uses a SLAB_ACCOUNT slab cache. If the test is
run within a non default memcg, then it uncovers the bug fixed by
"kasan: drain quarantine of memcg slab objects"[1].
If run without fix [1] it shows "Slab cache still has objects", and the
kmem_cache structure is leaked.
Here's an unpatched kernel test:
$ dmesg -c > /dev/null
$ mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
$ echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/tasks
$ modprobe test_kasan 2> /dev/null
$ dmesg | grep -B1 still
[ 123.456789] kasan test: memcg_accounted_kmem_cache allocate memcg accounted object
[ 124.456789] kmem_cache_destroy test_cache: Slab cache still has objects
Kernels with fix [1] don't have the "Slab cache still has objects"
warning or the underlying leak.
The new test runs and passes in the default (root) memcg, though in the
root memcg it won't uncover the problem fixed by [1].

This patchset implements SLAB support for KASAN
Unlike SLUB, SLAB doesn't store allocation/deallocation stacks for heap
objects, therefore we reimplement this feature in mm/kasan/stackdepot.c.
The intention is to ultimately switch SLUB to use this implementation as
well, which will save a lot of memory (right now SLUB bloats each object
by 256 bytes to store the allocation/deallocation stacks).
Also neither SLUB nor SLAB delay the reuse of freed memory chunks, which
is necessary for better detection of use-after-free errors. We
introduce memory quarantine (mm/kasan/quarantine.c), which allows
delayed reuse of deallocated memory.
This patch (of 7):
Rename kmalloc_large_oob_right() to kmalloc_pagealloc_oob_right(), as
the test only checks the page allocator functionality. Also reimplement
kmalloc_large_oob_right() so that the test allocates a large enough
chunk of memory that still does not trigger the page allocator fallback.

In kmalloc_oob_krealloc_less, I think it is better to test
the size2 boundary.
If we do not call krealloc, the access of position size1 will still cause
out-of-bounds and access of position size2 does not. After call krealloc,
the access of position size2 cause out-of-bounds. So using size2 is more
correct.
