Message-ID: <20220325224232.CF46CC340F0@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The patch titled
     Subject: kasan: allow enabling KASAN_VMALLOC and SW/HW_TAGS
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kasan-allow-enabling-kasan_vmalloc-and-sw-hw_tags.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>
Subject: kasan: allow enabling KASAN_VMALLOC and SW/HW_TAGS

Allow enabling CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC with SW_TAGS and HW_TAGS KASAN modes.

Also adjust CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC description:

- Mention HW_TAGS support.
- Remove unneeded internal details: they have no place in Kconfig
  description and are already explained in the documentation.

-	  By default, the shadow region for vmalloc space is the read-only

-	  Enabling this option will hook in to vmap/vmalloc and back those
-	  mappings with real shadow memory allocated on demand. This allows
-	  for KASAN to detect more sorts of errors (and to support vmapped
-	  stacks), but at the cost of higher memory usage.
+	  With software KASAN modes, checking is done for all types of vmalloc
+	  allocations. Enabling this option leads to higher memory usage.
+
+	  With hardware tag-based KASAN, only VM_ALLOC mappings are checked.
+	  There is no additional memory usage.
