[PATCH RFC bpf-next 1/8] kasan: expose generic kasan helpers

Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation)
2026-04-13T18:29:03Z

In order to prepare KASAN helpers to be called from the eBPF subsystem
(to add KASAN instrumentation at runtime when JITing eBPF programs),
expose the __asan_{load,store}X functions in linux/kasan.h
