45	help
46	  KASAN has three modes:
47	  1. generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan,
48	     x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC),
49	  2. software tag-based KASAN (arm64 only, based on software
50	     memory tagging (similar to userspace HWASan), enabled with
51	     CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS), and
52	  3. hardware tag-based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware
53	     memory tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).
54
55	  All KASAN modes are strictly debugging features.
56
57	  For better error reports enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.

65	  Enables generic KASAN mode.
66
67	  This mode is supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires
68	  version 8.3.0 or later. Any supported Clang version is compatible,
69	  but detection of out-of-bounds accesses for global variables is
70	  supported only since Clang 11.
71
72	  This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start
73	  and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations.
74	  The performance slowdown is ~x3.
75
76	  Currently CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
77	  (the resulting kernel does not boot).

86
87	  This mode require software memory tagging support in the form of
88	  HWASan-like compiler instrumentation.
89
90	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs and relies on
91	  Top Byte Ignore. This mode requires Clang.
92
93	  This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
94	  and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
95	  This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
96	  casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
97	  pointer.
98
99	  Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
100	  (the resulting kernel does not boot).

110	  by any architecture that provides it.
111
112	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs starting from
113	  ARMv8.5 and relies on Memory Tagging Extension and Top Byte Ignore.

124	help
125	  Before every memory access compiler insert function call
126	  __asan_load*/__asan_store*. These functions performs check
127	  of shadow memory. This is slower than inline instrumentation,
128	  however it doesn't bloat size of kernel's .text section so
129	  much as inline does.
130

133	help
134	  Compiler directly inserts code checking shadow memory before
135	  memory accesses. This is faster than outline (in some workloads
136	  it gives about x2 boost over outline instrumentation), but

145	  The LLVM stack address sanitizer has a know problem that
146	  causes excessive stack usage in a lot of functions, see
147	  https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809
148	  Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build
149	  with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of
150	  the functionality.
151	  This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang
152	  to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow warnings,
153	  but clang users can still enable it for builds without
154	  CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.	On gcc it is assumed to always be safe

173	help
174	  By default, the shadow region for vmalloc space is the read-only
175	  zero page. This means that KASAN cannot detect errors involving
176	  vmalloc space.
177
178	  Enabling this option will hook in to vmap/vmalloc and back those
179	  mappings with real shadow memory allocated on demand. This allows
180	  for KASAN to detect more sorts of errors (and to support vmapped
181	  stacks), but at the cost of higher memory usage.
