The patch titled
Subject: mm/zsmalloc: copy KMSAN metadata in zs_page_migrate()
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
mm-zsmalloc-copy-kmsan-metadata-in-zs_page_migrate.patch
This patch will shortly appear at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-zsmalloc-copy-kmsan-metadata-in-zs_page_migrate.patch

Subject: mm/zsmalloc: copy KMSAN metadata in zs_page_migrate()
Date: Sat, 21 Mar 2026 22:29:11 +0900
zs_page_migrate() uses copy_page() to copy the contents of a zspage page
during migration. However, copy_page() is not instrumented by KMSAN, so
the shadow and origin metadata of the destination page are not updated.
As a result, subsequent accesses to the migrated page are reported as
use-after-free by KMSAN, despite the data being correctly copied.
Add a kmsan_copy_page_meta() call after copy_page() to propagate the KMSAN
metadata to the new page, matching what copy_highpage() does internally.
