Subject: [PATCH] kvm: arm64: Disable compiler instrumentation for hypervisor
code
With the recent rewrite of the arm64 KVM hypervisor code in C, enabling
certain options like KASAN would allow the compiler to generate memory
accesses or function calls to addresses not mapped at EL2. This patch
disables the compiler instrumentation on the arm64 hypervisor code for
gcov-based profiling (GCOV_KERNEL), undefined behaviour sanity checker
(UBSAN) and kernel address sanitizer (KASAN).
