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.

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

93
94	  This mode require software memory tagging support in the form of
95	  HWASan-like compiler instrumentation.
96
97	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs and relies on
98	  Top Byte Ignore. This mode requires Clang.
99
100	  This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
101	  and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
102	  This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
103	  casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
104	  pointer.
105
106	  Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
107	  (the resulting kernel does not boot).

117	  by any architecture that provides it.
118
119	  Currently this mode is only implemented for arm64 CPUs starting from
120	  ARMv8.5 and relies on Memory Tagging Extension and Top Byte Ignore.

132	  Before every memory access compiler insert function call
133	  __asan_load*/__asan_store*. These functions performs check

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

181	help
182	  By default, the shadow region for vmalloc space is the read-only
183	  zero page. This means that KASAN cannot detect errors involving
184	  vmalloc space.
185
186	  Enabling this option will hook in to vmap/vmalloc and back those
187	  mappings with real shadow memory allocated on demand. This allows
188	  for KASAN to detect more sorts of errors (and to support vmapped
189	  stacks), but at the cost of higher memory usage.
