When CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled we currently increase the minimum
slab alignment to 16. This happens even if MTE is not supported in
hardware or disabled via kasan=off, which creates an unnecessary
memory overhead in those cases. Eliminate this overhead by making
the minimum slab alignment a runtime property and only aligning to
16 if KASAN is enabled at runtime.

On a DragonBoard 845c (non-MTE hardware) with a kernel built with
CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS, waiting for quiescence after a full Android
boot I see the following Slab measurements in /proc/meminfo (median
of 3 reboots):

Before: 169020 kB
After:  167304 kB

[+Cc slab people, Catalin and affected subsystems' folks]

just FYI, There is similar discussion about kmalloc caches' alignment.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20220405135758.774016-1-catalin.marinas@arm.com/

It seems this is another demand for runtime resolution of slab
alignment, But slightly different from kmalloc as there is no requirement
for DMA alignment.

Why isn't it just ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN?

kasan_hw_tags_enabled() is also false when kasan is just not initialized yet.
What about writing a new helper something like kasan_is_disabled()
instead?

Not only the value should be bigger than or equal to ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN,
it should be compatible with ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN.

Because this is the minimum possible value of the minimum alignment
decided at runtime. I chose to give it a different name to
arch_slab_minalign() because the two have different meanings.

Granted this isn't a great name because of the stuttering but
hopefully it will prompt folks to investigate the meaning of this
constant if necessary.

The decision of whether to enable KASAN is made early, before the slab
allocator is initialized (start_kernel -> smp_prepare_boot_cpu ->
kasan_init_hw_tags vs start_kernel -> mm_init -> kmem_cache_init). If
you think about it, this needs to be the case for KASAN to operate
correctly because it influences the behavior of the slab allocator via
the kasan_*poison* hooks. So I don't think we can end up calling this
function before then.

What's the difference?

To be honest I don't care much about the name but just thought it's just better
to be consistent with Catalin's series: ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN for static
alignment and arch_kmalloc_minalign() for (possibly bigger) alignment decided
at runtime.

Sounds not bad. I wanted to make sure the value of arch_slab_minaligned()
is not changed during its execution.

Just some part of me thought something like this would be more
intuitive/robust.

if (systems_supports_mte() && kasan_arg != KASAN_ARG_OFF)
	return MTE_GRANULE_SIZE;
else
	return __alignof__(unsigned long long);

I mean actual slab object size should be both ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN-aligned and
arch_slab_minalign()-aligned. Otherwise we are lying to the compiler.

It's okay If we use just power-of-two alignment.
But adding a comment wouldn't harm :)


Thank you for the work. I think the patch makes sense as usually people
don't build and install their kernel for arm64 machines.

Hi Hyeonggon,

We could add and use kasan_hw_rags_requested(), which would return
(systems_supports_mte() && kasan_arg != KASAN_ARG_OFF).

However, I'm not sure we will get a fully static behavior:
systems_supports_mte() also only starts returning proper result at
some point during CPU bring-up if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks!

Agree it should be consistent, one way or another. I would (not overly
strongly) prefer Catalin's approach as it's less churn. The name
ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is not wrong as the actual alignment can be only bigger
than that (or equal).
Realistically it seems only slab internals are going to use
arch_kmalloc_minalign(), so there shouldn't be too much need of "prompt
folks to investigate".

Let's see if kasan or arm folks have an opinion here.

I think this might not be necessary at all. There doesn't seem to be actual
connection to the slab+kasan constraints here. My brief digging into git
blame suggest they just used the ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN constant because it
existed, e.g. commit 2952095c6b2ee includes in changelog "Arguably, this is
kind of hokey that the FLAT is semi-abusing defines it shouldn't."
So, there shouldn't be a reason to increase this due to KASAN/MTE granule
size, it was done unnecessarily as a side-effect before (AFAIU it shouldn't
have caused existing userspace binaries to break, but maybe in some corner
case it could?), and if this patch leaves out the binfmt_flat changes, the
alignment will be (IMHO correctly) decreased again.

Agreed, technically it's not ">=ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN", but "a least common
multiple of ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN and whatever the other alignment
requirements arch_slab_minalign() wants to guarantee". But AFAIK in practice
these constraints are always power-of-two.

Yes, either way we are going to rely on something that hasn't
obviously been initialized yet, so I think we should stick with what I
have since it's used by the rest of the KASAN code as well.

No strong opinion, so I'll change it back to ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN then.

Okay, I'll revert this part.

I think it's pretty much assumed that alignments are a power of two,
so from that viewpoint it's enough to say that it must be
>=ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN. I guess I'll change the comment to say that
it must return a power of two since there's no reason not to.

Okay then we should anyway rely on something not initialized at early
stage of boot process.

And I don't expect much problem on current version.
