commitcf10bd4c4aupstream. To allow performing tag checks on page_alloc addresses obtained via page_address(), tag-based KASAN modes store tags for page_alloc allocations in page->flags. Currently, the default tag value stored in page->flags is 0x00. Therefore, page_address() returns a 0x00ffff... address for pages that were not allocated via page_alloc. This might cause problems. A particular case we encountered is a conflict with KFENCE. If a KFENCE-allocated slab object is being freed via kfree(page_address(page) + offset), the address passed to kfree() will get tagged with 0x00 (as slab pages keep the default per-page tags). This leads to is_kfence_address() check failing, and a KFENCE object ending up in normal slab freelist, which causes memory corruptions. This patch changes the way KASAN stores tag in page-flags: they are now stored xor'ed with 0xff. This way, KASAN doesn't need to initialize per-page flags for every created page, which might be slow. With this change, page_address() returns natively-tagged (with 0xff) pointers for pages that didn't have tags set explicitly. This patch fixes the encountered conflict with KFENCE and prevents more similar issues that can occur in the future.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
