52	help
53	  KASAN has three modes:
54	  1. generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan,
55	     x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC),
56	  2. software tag-based KASAN (arm64 only, based on software
57	     memory tagging (similar to userspace HWASan), enabled with
58	     CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS), and
59	  3. hardware tag-based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware
60	     memory tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).
61
62	  All KASAN modes are strictly debugging features.
63
64	  For better error reports enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.

73	  Enables generic KASAN mode.
74
75	  This mode is supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires
76	  version 8.3.0 or later. Any supported Clang version is compatible,
77	  but detection of out-of-bounds accesses for global variables is
78	  supported only since Clang 11.
79
80	  This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start
81	  and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations.
82	  The performance slowdown is ~x3.
83
84	  Currently CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
85	  (the resulting kernel does not boot).

97	  HWASan-like compiler instrumentation.
98
99	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs and relies on
100	  Top Byte Ignore. This mode requires Clang.
101
102	  This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
103	  and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
104	  This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
105	  casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
106	  pointer.

121	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs starting from

157	  The LLVM stack address sanitizer has a know problem that
158	  causes excessive stack usage in a lot of functions, see
159	  https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809
160	  Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build
161	  with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of
162	  the functionality.
163	  This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang
164	  to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow warnings,
165	  but clang users can still enable it for builds without
166	  CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.	On gcc it is assumed to always be safe
167	  to use and enabled by default.
168	  If the architecture disables inline instrumentation, stack
169	  instrumentation is also disabled as it adds inline-style
170	  instrumentation that is run unconditionally.

186
187	  With software KASAN modes, checking is done for all types of vmalloc
188	  allocations. Enabling this option leads to higher memory usage.
