A KVM guest could store tags in a page even if the VMM hasn't mapped
the page with PROT_MTE. So when restoring pages from swap we will
need to check to see if there are any saved tags even if !pte_tagged().

However don't check pages for which pte_access_permitted() returns false
as these will not have been swapped out.

I'm not sure I understand this comment. Of course, execution doesn't
match tags. But the memory could still have tags associated with
it. Does this mean such a page would lose its tags is swapped out?

Hmm, I probably should have reread that - the context of the comment is
lost.

I added the comment when changing to pte_access_permitted(), and the
comment on pte_access_permitted() explains a potential gotcha:

 * p??_access_permitted() is true for valid user mappings (PTE_USER
 * bit set, subject to the write permission check). For execute-only
 * mappings, like PROT_EXEC with EPAN (both PTE_USER and PTE_UXN bits
 * not set) must return false. PROT_NONE mappings do not have the
 * PTE_VALID bit set.

So execute-only mappings return false even though that is effectively a
type of user access. However, because MTE checks are not performed by
the PE for instruction fetches this doesn't matter. I'll update the
comment, how about:

/*
 * If the PTE would provide user space access to the tags associated
 * with it then ensure that the MTE tags are synchronised.  Although
 * pte_access_permitted() returns false for exec only mappings, they
 * don't expose tags (instruction fetches don't check tags).
 */

Steve

This looks fine to me. We basically want to check the PTE_VALID and
PTE_USER bits and pte_access_permitted() does this (we could come up
with a new macro name like pte_valid_user() but since we don't care
about execute-only, it gets unnecessarily complicated).

Looking at the mte_sync_page_tags() logic, we bail out early if it's the
old pte is not a swap one and the new pte is not tagged. So we only need
to call mte_sync_tags() if it's a tagged new pte or the old one is swap.
What about changing the set_pte_at() test to:

	if (system_supports_mte() && pte_present(pte) && !pte_special(pte) &&
	    (pte_tagged(pte) || is_swap_pte(READ_ONCE(*ptep))))
		mte_sync_tags(ptep, pte);

We can even change mte_sync_tags() to take the old pte directly:

	if (system_supports_mte() && pte_present(pte) && !pte_special(pte)) {
		pte_t old_pte = READ_ONCE(*ptep);
		if (pte_tagged(pte) || is_swap_pte(old_pte))
			mte_sync_tags(old_pte, pte);
	}

It would save a function call in most cases where the page is not
tagged.

Yes that looks like a good optimisation - although you've missed the
pte_access_permitted() part of the check ;) The problem I hit is one of
include dependencies:

is_swap_pte() is defined (as a static inline) in
include/linux/swapops.h. However the definition depends on
pte_none()/pte_present() which are defined in pgtable.h - so there's a
circular dependency.

Open coding is_swap_pte() in set_pte_at() works, but it's a bit ugly.
Any ideas on how to improve on the below?

	if (system_supports_mte() && pte_present(pte) &&
	    pte_access_permitted(pte, false) && !pte_special(pte)) {
		pte_t old_pte = READ_ONCE(*ptep);
		/*
		 * We only need to synchronise if the new PTE has tags enabled
		 * or if swapping in (in which case another mapping may have
		 * set tags in the past even if this PTE isn't tagged).
		 * (!pte_none() && !pte_present()) is an open coded version of
		 * is_swap_pte()
		 */
		if (pte_tagged(pte) || (!pte_none(pte) && !pte_present(pte)))
			mte_sync_tags(old_pte, pte);
	}

I was actually wondering if we could remove it. I don't think it buys us
much as we have a pte_present() check already, so we know it is pointing
to a valid page. Currently we'd only get a tagged pte on user mappings,
same with swap entries.

When vmalloc kasan_hw will be added, I think we have a set_pte_at() with
a tagged pte but init_mm and high address (we might as well add a
warning if addr > TASK_SIZE_64 on the mte_sync_tags path so that we
don't forget).

That's why I avoided testing my suggestion ;). I think we should just
add !pte_none() in there with a comment that it may be a swap pte and
use the is_swap_pte() again on the mte_sync_tags() path. We already have
the pte_present() check.

Correction - pte_present() checks the new pte only, we need another for
the old pte. So it looks like we'll open-code is_swap_pte().

Actually the other way round makes more sense surely?
pte_access_permitted() is true if both PTE_VALID & PTE_USER are set.
pte_present() is true if *either* PTE_VALID or PTE_PROT_NONE are set. So
the pte_present() is actually redundant.

While we might not yet have tagged kernel pages - I'm not sure there's
much point weakening the check to have to then check addr as well in the
future.

Well of course I didn't test the above beyond building - and I've
screwed up because the open coded is_swap_pte() should have been called
on old_pte not pte!

So the pte_present() check above (which I've just removed...) is for the
*new* PTE. So I think we need to keep both here.
