Subject: [PATCH 3/4] kasan: Don't use kasan shadow pointer in generic functions
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2015 13:24:22 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1441266863-5435-3-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1441266863-5435-1-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
We can't use generic functions like print_hex_dump to access kasan
shadow region. This require us to setup another kasan shadow region
for the address passed (kasan shadow address). Most architecture won't
be able to do that. Hence make a copy of the shadow region row and
pass that to generic functions.
