KASAN is a dynamic analysis tool that finds memory errors. It focuses
mostly on finding use-after-free and out-of-bound read/writes bugs.
KASAN works by allocating a "shadow memory" region which is used to store
whether each byte of memory is safe to access. The compiler then instruments
the kernel code and a check is inserted which validates the state of the
shadow memory region on every memory access (load or store).
To fully integrate KASAN into the SerenityOS kernel we need to:
a) Implement the KASAN interface to intercept the injected loads/stores.
void __asan_load*(address);
void __asan_store(address);
b) Setup KASAN region and determine the shadow memory offset + translation.
This might be challenging since Serenity is only 32bit at this time.
Ex: Linux implements kernel address -> shadow address translation like:
static inline void *kasan_mem_to_shadow(const void *addr)
{
return ((unsigned long)addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT)
+ KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET;
}
c) Integrating KASAN with Kernel allocators.
The kernel allocators need to be taught how to record allocation state
in the shadow memory region.
This commit only implements the initial steps of this long process:
- A new (default OFF) CMake build flag `ENABLE_KERNEL_ADDRESS_SANITIZER`
- Stubs out enough of the KASAN interface to allow the Kernel to link clean.
Currently the KASAN kernel crashes on boot (triple fault because of the crash
in strlen other sanitizer are seeing) but the goal here is to just get started,
and this should help others jump in and continue making progress on KASAN.

SerenityOS
Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
About
SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.
Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.
I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.
Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.
I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.

How do I read the documentation?
Man pages are browsable outside of SerenityOS under Base/usr/share/man.
When running SerenityOS you can use man for the terminal interface, or help for the GUI interface.
How do I build and run this?
