With HW tag-based KASAN, error checks are performed implicitly by the load and store instructions in the memcpy implementation. A failed check results in tag checks being disabled and execution will keep going. As a result, under HW tag-based KASAN, prior to commit1b0668be62("kasan: test: disable kmalloc_memmove_invalid_size for HW_TAGS"), this memcpy would end up corrupting memory until it hits an inaccessible page and causes a kernel panic. This is a pre-existing issue that was revealed by commit285133040e("arm64: Import latest memcpy()/memmove() implementation") which changed the memcpy implementation from using signed comparisons (incorrectly, resulting in the memcpy being terminated early for negative sizes) to using unsigned comparisons. It is unclear how this could be handled by memcpy itself in a reasonable way. One possibility would be to add an exception handler that would force memcpy to return if a tag check fault is detected -- this would make the behavior roughly similar to generic and SW tag-based KASAN. However, this wouldn't solve the problem for asynchronous mode and also makes memcpy behavior inconsistent with manually copying data. This test was added as a part of a series that taught KASAN to detect negative sizes in memory operations, see commit8cceeff48f("kasan: detect negative size in memory operation function"). Therefore we should keep testing for negative sizes with generic and SW tag-based KASAN. But there is some value in testing small memcpy overflows, so let's add another test with memcpy that does not destabilize the kernel by performing out-of-bounds writes, and run it in all modes.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels
-
BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export. - When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
-
LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
Common Kernel patch requirements
- All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass
script/checkpatch.pl - Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
- If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch:
UPSTREAM:,BACKPORT:,FROMGIT:,FROMLIST:, orANDROID:. - All patches must have a
Change-Id:tag (see https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html) - If an Android bug has been assigned, there must be a
Bug:tag. - All patches must have a
Signed-off-by:tag by the author and the submitter
Additional requirements are listed below based on patch type
Requirements for backports from mainline Linux: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:
- If the patch is a cherry-pick from Linux mainline with no changes at all
- tag the patch subject with
UPSTREAM:. - add upstream commit information with a
(cherry picked from commit ...)line - Example:
- if the upstream commit message is
- tag the patch subject with
important patch from upstream

- then Joe Smith would upload the patch for the common kernel as

- If the patch requires any changes from the upstream version, tag the patch with
BACKPORT:instead ofUPSTREAM:.- use the same tags as
