Right now the fact that KASAN uses a single shadow byte for 8 bytes of
memory is scattered all over the code.

This change defines KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT early in asm include files
and makes use of this constant where necessary.

<title>arm64: Use larger stacks when KASAN is selected</title>

AddressSanitizer instrumentation can significantly bloat the stack, and
with GCC 7 this can result in stack overflows at boot time in some
configurations.

We can avoid this by doubling our stack size when KASAN is in use, as is
already done on x86 (and has been since KASAN was introduced).
Regardless of other patches to decrease KASAN's stack utilization,
kernels built with KASAN will always require more stack space than those
built without, and we should take this into account.

ILP32 series [1] introduces the dependency on &lt;asm/is_compat.h&gt; for
TASK_SIZE macro. Which in turn requires &lt;asm/thread_info.h&gt;, and
&lt;asm/thread_info.h&gt; include &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;, giving a circular dependency,
because TASK_SIZE is currently located in &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;.

In other architectures, TASK_SIZE is defined in &lt;asm/processor.h&gt;, and
moving TASK_SIZE there fixes the problem.

<content type='text'>
This patch adds stack overflow detection to arm64, usable when vmap'd stacks
are in use.

Overflow is detected in a small preamble executed for each exception entry,
which checks whether there is enough space on the current stack for the general
purpose registers to be saved. If there is not enough space, the overflow
handler is invoked on a per-cpu overflow stack. This approach preserves the
original exception information in ESR_EL1 (and where appropriate, FAR_EL1).

Task and IRQ stacks are aligned to double their size, enabling overflow to be
detected with a single bit test. For example, a 16K stack is aligned to 32K,
ensuring that bit 14 of the SP must be zero. On an overflow (or underflow),
this bit is flipped. Thus, overflow (of less than the size of the stack) can be
detected by testing whether this bit is set.

The overflow check is performed before any attempt is made to access the
stack, avoiding recursive faults (and the loss of exception information
these would entail). As logical operations cannot be performed on the SP
directly, the SP is temporarily swapped with a general purpose register
using arithmetic operations to enable the test to be performed.

This gives us a useful error message on stack overflow, as can be trigger with
the LKDTM overflow test:

This patch adds stack overflow detection to arm64, usable when vmap'd stacks
are in use.

Overflow is detected in a small preamble executed for each exception entry,
which checks whether there is enough space on the current stack for the general
purpose registers to be saved. If there is not enough space, the overflow
handler is invoked on a per-cpu overflow stack. This approach preserves the
original exception information in ESR_EL1 (and where appropriate, FAR_EL1).

Task and IRQ stacks are aligned to double their size, enabling overflow to be
detected with a single bit test. For example, a 16K stack is aligned to 32K,
ensuring that bit 14 of the SP must be zero. On an overflow (or underflow),
this bit is flipped. Thus, overflow (of less than the size of the stack) can be
detected by testing whether this bit is set.

The overflow check is performed before any attempt is made to access the
stack, avoiding recursive faults (and the loss of exception information
these would entail). As logical operations cannot be performed on the SP
directly, the SP is temporarily swapped with a general purpose register
using arithmetic operations to enable the test to be performed.

This gives us a useful error message on stack overflow, as can be trigger with
the LKDTM overflow test:

This patch enables arm64 to be built with vmap'd task and IRQ stacks.

As vmap'd stacks are mapped at page granularity, stacks must be a multiple of
PAGE_SIZE. This means that a 64K page kernel must use stacks of at least 64K in
size.

To minimize the increase in Image size, IRQ stacks are dynamically allocated at
boot time, rather than embedding the boot CPU's IRQ stack in the kernel image.

This patch was co-authored by Ard Biesheuvel and Mark Rutland.

<title>arm64: move SEGMENT_ALIGN to &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;</title>

Currently we define SEGMENT_ALIGN directly in our vmlinux.lds.S.

This is unfortunate, as the EFI stub currently open-codes the same
number, and in future we'll want to fiddle with this.

This patch moves the definition to our &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;, where it can be
used by both vmlinux.lds.S and the EFI stub code.

Before we add yet another stack to the kernel, it would be nice to
ensure that we consistently organise stack definitions and related
helper functions.

This patch moves the basic IRQ stack defintions to &lt;asm/memory.h&gt; to
live with their task stack counterparts. Helpers used for unwinding are
moved into &lt;asm/stacktrace.h&gt;, where subsequent patches will add helpers
for other stacks. Includes are fixed up accordingly.

This patch is a pure refactoring -- there should be no functional
changes as a result of this patch.

Currently we define THREAD_SIZE and THREAD_SIZE_ORDER separately, with
the latter dependent on particular CONFIG_ARM64_*K_PAGES definitions.
This is somewhat opaque, and will get in the way of future modifications
to THREAD_SIZE.

This patch cleans this up, defining both in terms of a common
THREAD_SHIFT, and using PAGE_SHIFT to calculate THREAD_SIZE_ORDER,
rather than using a number of definitions dependent on config symbols.
Subsequent patches will make use of this to alter the stack size used in
some configurations.

At the same time, these are moved into &lt;asm/memory.h&gt;, which will avoid
circular include issues in subsequent patches. To ensure that existing
code isn't adversely affected, &lt;asm/thread_info.h&gt; is updated to
transitively include these definitions.
