arm64: mte: Enable TCO in functions that can read beyond buffer limits
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
load_unaligned_zeropad() and __get/put_kernel_nofault() functions can
read passed some buffer limits which may include some MTE granule with a
different tag.

When MTE async mode is enable, the load operation crosses the boundaries
and the next granule has a different tag the PE sets the TFSR_EL1.TF1 bit
as if an asynchronous tag fault is happened.

Enable Tag Check Override (TCO) in these functions  before the load and
disable it afterwards to prevent this to happen.

Note: The same condition can be hit in MTE sync mode but we deal with it
through the exception handling.
In the current implementation, mte_async_mode flag is set only at boot
time but in future kasan might acquire some runtime features that
that change the mode dynamically, hence we disable it when sync mode is
selected for future proof.
