KernelMemorySanitizer (KMSAN) is a detector of errors related to uses of
uninitialized memory. It relies on compile-time Clang instrumentation
(similar to MSan in the userspace:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/MemorySanitizer.html)
and tracks the state of every bit of kernel memory, being able to report
an error if uninitialized value is used in a condition, dereferenced or
copied to userspace, USB or network.

KMSAN has reported more than 200 bugs in the past two years, most of
them with the help of syzkaller (http://syzkaller.appspot.com).

The proposed patchset contains KMSAN runtime implementation together
with small changes to other subsystems needed to make KMSAN work.
The latter changes fall into several categories:
 - nice-to-have features that are independent from KMSAN but simplify
   its implementation (stackdepot changes, CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM etc.);
 - Kconfig changes that prohibit options incompatible with KMSAN;
 - calls to KMSAN runtime functions that help KMSAN do the bookkeeping
   (e.g. tell it to allocate, copy or delete the metadata);
 - calls to KMSAN runtime functions that tell KMSAN to check memory
   escaping the kernel for uninitialized values. These are required to
   increase the number of true positive error reports;
 - calls to runtime functions that tell KMSAN to ignore certain memory
   ranges to avoid false negative reports. Most certainly there can be
   better ways to deal with every such report.

This patchset allows one to boot and run a defconfig+KMSAN kernel on a QEMU
without known major false positives. It however doesn't guarantee there
are no false positives in drivers of certain devices or less tested
subsystems, although KMSAN is actively tested on syzbot with quite a
rich config.

One may find it handy to review these patches in Gerrit:
https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1081
I've ensured the Change-Id: tags stay away from commit descriptions.

The patchset was generated relative to mmotm
(v5.6-rc7-mmots-2020-03-23-22-35).

Several points worth a separate discussion:
1. Right now KMSAN assumes that contiguous physical pages cannot be
accessed as such, unless they were allocated together by a single
alloc_pages() call. Some kernel code however does so, which may break
under KMSAN. Two possible solutions to this problem are:
 A. Allocate shadow and origin pages at fixed offset from the kernel page.
    This is what we already do for vmalloc, but not for page_alloc(), as
    it turned out to be quite hard.
    Ideas on how to implement this approach are still welcome, because
    it'll simplify the rest of the KMSAN runtime a lot.
 B. Make all accesses touching non-contiguous pages access dummy shadow
    pages instead, so that such accesses don't produce any uninitialized
    values.
    This is quite controversial, as it may prevent true positives from
    being reported.

2. checkpatch.pl complains a lot about the use of BUG_ON in KMSAN
source. I don't have a strong opinion on this, but KMSAN is a debugging
tool, so any runtime invariant violation in it renders the tool useless.
Therefore it doesn't make much sense to not terminate after a bug in
KMSAN.

There has been a suggestion to disable KMSAN gracefully instead of
panicking. The downside of doing so is that users may gain a false sense
of memory safety if they don't notice that the tool has shut down.

3. objtool complains a lot about calls to KMSAN runtime with UACCESS
enabled.
None of these functions is expected to touch userspace memory, but
they can be called in the uaccess context, as the compiler adds them
to every memory access.
Turns out it's not enough to just whitelist KMSAN interface functions
in tools/objtool/check.c, as they are viral: after whitelisting them
I get warnings about their callees.
On the other hand, it's unacceptable to call
user_access_save()/user_access_restore() inside these functions, as
this slows down the whole runtime heavily.
Perhaps this problem can be solved on objtool side, as the mentioned
reports aren't errors per se.
