locking/lockdep: Disable KASAN instrumentation of lockdep.c

locking/lockdep: Disable KASAN instrumentation of lockdep.c

Both KASAN and LOCKDEP are commonly enabled in building a debug kernel.
Each of them can significantly slow down the speed of a debug kernel.
Enabling KASAN instrumentation of the LOCKDEP code will further slow
things down.

Since LOCKDEP is a high overhead debugging tool, it will never get
enabled in a production kernel. The LOCKDEP code is also pretty mature
and is unlikely to get major changes. There is also a possibility of
recursion similar to KCSAN.

To evaluate the performance impact of disabling KASAN instrumentation
of lockdep.c, the time to do a parallel build of the Linux defconfig
kernel was used as the benchmark. Two x86-64 systems (Skylake & Zen 2)
and an arm64 system were used as test beds. Two sets of non-RT and RT
kernels with similar configurations except mainly CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT
were used for evaluation.

For the Skylake system:

Kernel Run time Sys time
------ -------- --------
Non-debug kernel (baseline) 0m47.642s 4m19.811s

[CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y]
Debug kernel 2m11.108s (x2.8) 38m20.467s (x8.9)

Debug kernel
(patched + mitigations=off) 1m30.988s (x1.9) 26m41.993s (x6.2)

RT kernel (baseline) 0m54.871s 7m15.340s

[CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n]
RT debug kernel 6m07.151s (x6.7) 135m47.428s (x18.7)
RT debug kernel (patched) 3m42.434s (x4.1) 74m51.636s (x10.3)

RT debug kernel (patched) 2m36.700s (x2.9) 54m31.195s (x7.5)
RT debug kernel
(patched + mitigations=off) 2m06.110s (x2.3) 45m49.493s (x6.3)

For the Zen 2 system:

Kernel Run time Sys time
------ -------- --------
Non-debug kernel (baseline) 1m42.806s 39m48.714s

[CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y]
Debug kernel 4m04.524s (x2.4) 125m35.904s (x3.2)
Debug kernel (patched) 3m56.241s (x2.3) 127m22.378s (x3.2)
Debug kernel
(patched + mitigations=off) 2m38.157s (x1.5) 92m35.680s (x2.3)

RT kernel (baseline) 1m51.500s 14m56.322s

[CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n]
RT debug kernel 16m04.962s (x8.7) 244m36.463s (x16.4)
RT debug kernel (patched) 9m09.073s (x4.9) 129m28.439s (x8.7)
RT debug kernel
(patched + mitigations=off) 3m31.662s (x1.9) 51m01.391s (x3.4)

For the arm64 system:

Kernel Run time Sys time
------ -------- --------
Non-debug kernel (baseline) 1m56.844s 8m47.150s
Debug kernel 3m54.774s (x2.0) 92m30.098s (x10.5)
Debug kernel (patched) 3m32.429s (x1.8) 77m40.779s (x8.8)

RT kernel (baseline) 4m01.641s 18m16.777s

[CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n]
RT debug kernel 19m32.977s (x4.9) 304m23.965s (x16.7)
RT debug kernel (patched) 16m28.354s (x4.1) 234m18.149s (x12.8)

Turning the mitigations off doesn't seems to have any noticeable impact
on the performance of the arm64 system. So the mitigation=off entries
aren't included.

For the x86 CPUs, CPU mitigations has a much bigger
impact on performance, especially the RT debug kernel with
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n. The SRSO mitigation in Zen 2 has an especially
big impact on the debug kernel. It is also the majority of the slowdown
with mitigations on. It is because the patched RET instruction slows
down function returns. A lot of helper functions that are normally
compiled out or inlined may become real function calls in the debug
kernel.

With !CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE, the KASAN instrumentation inserts a
lot of __asan_loadX*() and __kasan_check_read() function calls to memory
access portion of the code. The lockdep's __lock_acquire() function,
for instance, has 66 __asan_loadX*() and 6 __kasan_check_read() calls
added with KASAN instrumentation. Of course, the actual numbers may vary
depending on the compiler used and the exact version of the lockdep code.

With the Skylake test system, the parallel kernel build times reduction
of the RT debug kernel with this patch are:

CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=n: -37%
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y: -22%

The time reduction is less with CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y, but it is still
significant.

Setting CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y can result in a significant performance
improvement. The major drawback is a significant increase in the size
of kernel text. In the case of vmlinux, its text size increases from
45997948 to 67606807. That is a 47% size increase (about 21 Mbytes). The
size increase of other kernel modules should be similar.

With the newly added rtmutex and lockdep lock events, the relevant
event counts for the test runs with the Skylake system were:

Event type Debug kernel RT debug kernel
---------- ------------ ---------------
lockdep_acquire 1,968,663,277 5,425,313,953
rtlock_slowlock - 401,701,156
rtmutex_slowlock - 139,672

The __lock_acquire() calls in the RT debug kernel are x2.8 times of the
non-RT debug kernel with the same workload. Since the __lock_acquire()
function is a big hitter in term of performance slowdown, this makes
the RT debug kernel much slower than the non-RT one. The average lock
nesting depth is likely to be higher in the RT debug kernel too leading
to longer execution time in the __lock_acquire() function.

As the small advantage of enabling KASAN instrumentation to catch
potential memory access error in the lockdep debugging tool is probably
not worth the drawback of further slowing down a debug kernel, disable
KASAN instrumentation in the lockdep code to allow the debug kernels
to regain some performance back, especially for the RT debug kernels.
