This patch enables KCSAN for arm64, with updates to build rules
to not use KCSAN for several incompatible compilation units.
Recent 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.
Meanwhile, as Mark said[1], some latent issues are needed to be
fixed which isn't just a KCSAN problem, we make the KCSAN depends
on EXPERT for now.
Tested selftest and kcsan_test(built with GCC11 and Clang 13),
and all passed.

The warning is telling us that there was a data race which KCSAN wants
to report, but the function where the original access (that is now
reordered) happened cannot be found in the stack trace, which prevents
KCSAN from generating the right stack trace. The stack trace of "write
(reordered)" now only shows where the access was reordered to, but
should instead show the stack trace of the original write, with a final
line saying "reordered to".
At the point where set_reorder_access() is interrupted, it just set
reorder_access->ptr and size, at which point size is non-zero. This is
sufficient (if ctx->disable_scoped is zero) for further accesses from
nested contexts to perform checking of this reorder_access.
That then happened in _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(), which is called by
scheduler code. However, since reorder_access->ip is still stale (ptr
and size belong to a different ip not yet set) this finally leads to
replace_stack_entry() not finding the frame in reorder_access->ip and
generating the above warning.
Fix it by ensuring that a nested context cannot access reorder_access
while we update it in set_reorder_access(): set ctx->disable_scoped for
the duration that reorder_access is updated, which effectively locks
reorder_access and prevents concurrent use by nested contexts. Note,
set_reorder_access() can do the update only if disabled_scoped is zero
on entry, and must therefore set disable_scoped back to non-zero after
the initial check in set_reorder_access().

The barrier tests in selftest and the kcsan_test module only need the
spinlock and mutex to test correct barrier instrumentation. Therefore,
these were initially placed on the stack.
However, lockdep asserts that locks are in static storage, and will
generate this warning:

| The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
| you didn't initialize this object before use?

To fix, move the test locks into static storage.
Fixing the above also revealed that lock operations are strengthened on
first use with lockdep enabled, due to lockdep calling out into
non-instrumented files (recall that kernel/locking/lockdep.c is not
instrumented with KCSAN).
Only kcsan_test checks for over-instrumentation of *_lock() operations,
where we can simply "warm up" the test locks to avoid the test case
failing with lockdep.

Add the core memory barrier instrumentation functions. These invalidate
the current in-flight reordered access based on the rules for the
respective barrier types and in-flight access type.
To obtain barrier instrumentation that can be disabled via __no_kcsan
with appropriate compiler-support (and not just with objtool help),
barrier instrumentation repurposes __atomic_signal_fence(), instead of
inserting explicit calls. Crucially, __atomic_signal_fence() normally
does not map to any real instructions, but is still intercepted by
fsanitize=thread. As a result, like any other instrumentation done by
the compiler, barrier instrumentation can be disabled with __no_kcsan.
Unfortunately Clang and GCC currently differ in their __no_kcsan aka
__no_sanitize_thread behaviour with respect to builtin atomics (and
__tsan_func_{entry,exit}) instrumentation. This is already reflected in
Kconfig.kcsan's dependencies for KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY. A later change will
introduce support for newer versions of Clang that can implement
__no_kcsan to also remove the additional instrumentation introduced by
KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY.

Add support for modeling a subset of weak memory, which will enable
detection of a subset of data races due to missing memory barriers.
KCSAN's approach to detecting missing memory barriers is based on
modeling access reordering, and enabled if `CONFIG_KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY=y`,
which depends on `CONFIG_KCSAN_STRICT=y`. The feature can be enabled or
disabled at boot and runtime via the `kcsan.weak_memory` boot parameter.
Each memory access for which a watchpoint is set up, is also selected
for simulated reordering within the scope of its function (at most 1
in-flight access).
We are limited to modeling the effects of "buffering" (delaying the
access), since the runtime cannot "prefetch" accesses (therefore no
acquire modeling). Once an access has been selected for reordering, it
is checked along every other access until the end of the function scope.
If an appropriate memory barrier is encountered, the access will no
longer be considered for reordering.
When the result of a memory operation should be ordered by a barrier,
KCSAN can then detect data races where the conflict only occurs as a
result of a missing barrier due to reordering accesses.

Avoid checking scoped accesses from nested contexts (such as nested
interrupts or in scheduler code) which share the same kcsan_ctx.
This is to avoid detecting false positive races of accesses in the same
thread with currently scoped accesses: consider setting up a watchpoint
for a non-scoped (normal) access that also "conflicts" with a current
scoped access. In a nested interrupt (or in the scheduler), which shares
the same kcsan_ctx, we cannot check scoped accesses set up in the parent
context -- simply ignore them in this case.
With the introduction of kcsan_ctx::disable_scoped, we can also clean up
kcsan_check_scoped_accesses()'s recursion guard, and do not need to
modify the list's prev pointer.

If CONFIG_KCSAN_REPORT_VALUE_CHANGE_ONLY=n, then we may also see data
races between the writers only. If we get unlucky and never capture a
read-write data race, but only the write-write data races, then the
test_no_value_change* test cases may incorrectly fail.
The second problem is that the initial value needs to be reset, as
otherwise we might actually observe a value change at the start.
Fix it by also looking for the write-write data races, and resetting the
value to what will be written.

Add rules to ignore data-racy reads with only 1-bit value changes.
Details about the rules are captured in comments in
kernel/kcsan/permissive.h. More background follows.
While investigating a number of data races, we've encountered data-racy
accesses on flags variables to be very common. The typical pattern is a
reader masking all but one bit, and/or the writer setting/clearing only
1 bit (current->flags being a frequently encountered case; more examples
in mm/sl[au]b.c, which disable KCSAN for this reason).
Since these types of data-racy accesses are common (with the assumption
they are intentional and hard to miscompile) having the option (with
CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE=y) to filter them will avoid forcing everyone to
mark them, and deliberately left to preference at this time.
One important motivation for having this option built-in is to move
closer to being able to enable KCSAN on CI systems or for testers
wishing to test the whole kernel, while more easily filtering
less interesting data races with higher probability.
For the implementation, we considered several alternatives, but had one
major requirement: that the rules be kept together with the Linux-kernel
tree. Adding them to the compiler would preclude us from making changes
quickly; if the rules require tweaks, having them part of the compiler
requires waiting another ~1 year for the next release -- that's not
realistic. We are left with the following options:
1. Maintain compiler plugins as part of the kernel-tree that
removes instrumentation for some accesses (e.g. plain-& with
1-bit mask). The analysis would be reader-side focused, as
no assumption can be made about racing writers.
Because it seems unrealistic to maintain 2 plugins, one for LLVM and
GCC, we would likely pick LLVM. Furthermore, no kernel infrastructure
exists to maintain LLVM plugins, and the build-system implications and
maintenance overheads do not look great (historically, plugins written
against old LLVM APIs are not guaranteed to work with newer LLVM APIs).
2. Find a set of rules that can be expressed in terms of
observed value changes, and make it part of the KCSAN runtime.
The analysis is writer-side focused, given we rely on observed
value changes.
The approach taken here is (2). While a complete approach requires both
(1) and (2), experiments show that the majority of data races involving
trivial bit operations on flags variables can be removed with (2) alone.
It goes without saying that the filtering of data races using (1) or (2)
does _not_ guarantee they are safe! Therefore, limiting ourselves to (2)
for now is the conservative choice for setups that wish to enable
CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE=y.

Rework atomic.h into permissive.h to better reflect its purpose, and
introduce kcsan_ignore_address() and kcsan_ignore_data_race().
Introduce CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE and update the stub functions in
preparation for subsequent changes.
As before, developers who choose to use KCSAN in "strict" mode will see
all data races and are not affected. Furthermore, by relying on the
value-change filter logic for kcsan_ignore_data_race(), even if the
permissive rules are enabled, the opt-outs in report.c:skip_report()
override them (such as for RCU-related functions by default).
The option CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE is disabled by default, so that the
documented default behaviour of KCSAN does not change. Instead, like
CONFIG_KCSAN_IGNORE_ATOMICS, the option needs to be explicitly opted in.

There are a number get_ctx() calls that are close to each other, which
results in poor codegen (repeated preempt_count loads).
Specifically in kcsan_found_watchpoint() (even though it's a slow-path)
it is beneficial to keep the race-window small until the watchpoint has
actually been consumed to avoid missed opportunities to report a race.
Let's clean it up a bit before we add more code in
kcsan_found_watchpoint().

By this point CONFIG_KCSAN_DEBUG is pretty useless, as the system just
isn't usable with it due to spamming console (I imagine a randconfig

verify the encoding is correct, but these days we have proper tests. If
something similar is needed in future, just add it back ad-hoc.

When a thread detects that a memory location was modified without its
watchpoint being hit, the report notes that a change was detected, but
does not provide concrete values for the change. Knowing the concrete
values can be very helpful in tracking down any racy writers (e.g. as
specific values may only be written in some portions of code, or under
certain conditions).
When we detect a modification, let's report the concrete old/new values,
along with the access's mask of relevant bits (and which relevant bits
were modified). This can make it easier to identify potential racy
writers. As the snapshots are at most 8 bytes, we can only report values
for acceses up to this size, but this appears to cater for the common
case.
When we detect a race via a watchpoint, we may or may not have concrete
values for the modification. To be helpful, let's attempt to log them
when we do as they can be ignored where irrelevant.
The resulting reports appears as follows, with values zero-padded to the
access width:

Now that the reporting code has been refactored, it's clear by
construction that print_report() can only be passed
KCSAN_REPORT_RACE_SIGNAL or KCSAN_REPORT_RACE_UNKNOWN_ORIGIN, and these
can also be distinguished by the presence of `other_info`.
Let's simplify things and remove the report type enum, and instead let's
check `other_info` to distinguish these cases. This allows us to remove
code for cases which are impossible and generally makes the code simpler.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Now that we have separate kcsan_report_*() functions, we can factor the
distinct logic for each of the report cases out of kcsan_report(). While
this means each case has to handle mutual exclusion independently, this
minimizes the conditionality of code and makes it easier to read, and
will permit passing distinct bits of information to print_report() in
future.

In subsequent patches we'll want to split kcsan_report() into distinct
handlers for each report type. The largest bit of common work is
initializing the `access_info`, so let's factor this out into a helper,
and have the kcsan_report_*() functions pass the `aaccess_info` as a
parameter to kcsan_report().

The `watchpoint_idx` argument to kcsan_report() isn't meaningful for
races which were not detected by a watchpoint, and it would be clearer
if callers passed the other_info directly so that a NULL value can be
passed in this case.
Given that callers manipulate their watchpoints before passing the index
into kcsan_report_*(), and given we index the `other_infos` array using
this before we sanity-check it, the subsequent sanity check isn't all
that useful.
Let's remove the `watchpoint_idx` sanity check, and move the job of
finding the `other_info` out of kcsan_report().
Other than the removal of the check, there should be no functional
change as a result of this patch.

Currently kcsan_report() is used to handle three distinct cases:
* The caller hit a watchpoint when attempting an access. Some
information regarding the caller and access are recorded, but no
output is produced.
* A caller which previously setup a watchpoint detected that the
watchpoint has been hit, and possibly detected a change to the
location in memory being watched. This may result in output reporting
the interaction between this caller and the caller which hit the
watchpoint.
* A caller detected a change to a modification to a memory location
which wasn't detected by a watchpoint, for which there is no
information on the other thread. This may result in output reporting
the unexpected change.
... depending on the specific case the caller has distinct pieces of
information available, but the prototype of kcsan_report() has to handle
all three cases. This means that in some cases we pass redundant
information, and in others we don't pass all the information we could
pass. This also means that the report code has to demux these three
cases.
So that we can pass some additional information while also simplifying
the callers and report code, add separate kcsan_report_*() functions for
the distinct cases, updating callers accordingly. As the watchpoint_idx
is unused in the case of kcsan_report_unknown_origin(), this passes a
dummy value into kcsan_report(). Subsequent patches will refactor the
report code to avoid this.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

In kcsan_setup_watchpoint() we store snapshots of a watched value into a
union of u8/u16/u32/u64 sized fields, modify this in place using a
consistent field, then later check for any changes via the u64 field.
We can achieve the safe effect more simply by always treating the field
as a u64, as smaller values will be zero-extended. As the values are
zero-extended, we don't need to truncate the access_mask when we apply
it, and can always apply the full 64-bit access_mask to the 64-bit
value.
Finally, we can store the two snapshots and calculated difference
separately, which makes the code a little easier to read, and will
permit reporting the old/new values in subsequent patches.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Since KUnit now support parameterized tests via KUNIT_CASE_PARAM, update
KCSAN's test to switch to it for parameterized tests. This simplifies
parameterized tests and gets rid of the "parameters in case name"
workaround (hack).
At the same time, we can increase the maximum number of threads used,
because on systems with too few CPUs, KUnit allows us to now stop at the
maximum useful threads and not unnecessarily execute redundant test
cases with (the same) limited threads as had been the case before.

Commit 56348560d495 ("debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file
before the filesystem is initalized") forbids creating new debugfs files
until debugfs is fully initialized. This means that KCSAN's debugfs
file creation, which happened at the end of __init(), no longer works.
And was apparently never supposed to work!
However, there is no reason to create KCSAN's debugfs file so early.
This commit therefore moves its creation to a late_initcall() callback.

Rewrite kcsan_prandom_u32_max() to not depend on code that might be
instrumented, removing any dependency on lib/random32.c. The rewrite
implements a simple linear congruential generator, that is sufficient
for our purposes (for udelay() and skip_watch counter randomness).
The initial motivation for this was to allow enabling KCSAN for
kernel/sched (remove KCSAN_SANITIZE := n from kernel/sched/Makefile),
with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y. Without this change, we could observe
recursion:
check_access() [via instrumentation]
kcsan_setup_watchpoint()
reset_kcsan_skip()
kcsan_prandom_u32_max()
get_cpu_var()
preempt_disable()
preempt_count_add() [in kernel/sched/core.c]
check_access() [via instrumentation]
Note, while this currently does not affect an unmodified kernel, it'd be
good to keep a KCSAN kernel working when KCSAN_SANITIZE := n is removed
from kernel/sched/Makefile to permit testing scheduler code with KCSAN
if desired.

The watchpoint encoding masks for size and address were off-by-one bit
each, with the size mask using 1 unnecessary bit and the address mask
missing 1 bit. However, due to the way the size is shifted into the
encoded watchpoint, we were effectively wasting and never using the
extra bit.
For example, on x86 with PAGE_SIZE==4K, we have 1 bit for the is-write
bit, 14 bits for the size bits, and then 49 bits left for the address.
Prior to this fix we would end up with this usage:
[ write<1> | size<14> | wasted<1> | address<48> ]
Fix it by subtracting 1 bit from the GENMASK() end and start ranges of
size and address respectively. The added static_assert()s verify that
the masks are as expected. With the fixed version, we get the expected
usage:
[ write<1> | size<14> | address<49> ]
Functionally no change is expected, since that extra address bit is
insignificant for enabled architectures.

Avoid setting up watchpoints on NULL pointers, as otherwise we would
crash inside the KCSAN runtime (when checking for value changes) instead
of the instrumented code.
Because that may be confusing, skip any address less than PAGE_SIZE.
