help
KASAN has three modes:
1. Generic KASAN (supported by many architectures, enabled with
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, similar to userspace ASan),
2. Software Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on software memory
tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, similar to userspace
HWASan), and
3. Hardware Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware memory
tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).
See Documentation/dev-tools/kasan.rst for details about each mode.

depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN && CC_HAS_KASAN_GENERIC
depends on CC_HAS_WORKING_NOSANITIZE_ADDRESS
select SLUB_DEBUG if SLUB

help
Enables Generic KASAN.
Requires GCC 8.3.0+ or Clang.
Consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start and adds an
overhead of ~50% for dynamic allocations.
The performance slowdown is ~x3.
(Incompatible with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB: the kernel does not boot.)

help
Enables Software Tag-Based KASAN.
Requires GCC 11+ or Clang.
Supported only on arm64 CPUs and relies on Top Byte Ignore.
Consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start and
add an overhead of ~20% for dynamic allocations.
May potentially introduce problems related to pointer casting and
comparison, as it embeds a tag into the top byte of each pointer.
(Incompatible with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB: the kernel does not boot.)

Enables Hardware Tag-Based KASAN.
Requires GCC 10+ or Clang 12+.
Supported only on arm64 CPUs starting from ARMv8.5 and relies on
Memory Tagging Extension and Top Byte Ignore.
Consumes about 1/32nd of available memory.
May potentially introduce problems related to pointer casting and
comparison, as it embeds a tag into the top byte of each pointer.

config KASAN_OUTLINE
bool "Outline instrumentation"
help
Makes the compiler insert function calls that check whether the memory
is accessible before each memory access. Slower than KASAN_INLINE, but
does not bloat the size of the kernel's .text section so much.
config KASAN_INLINE
bool "Inline instrumentation"
depends on !ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE
help
Makes the compiler directly insert memory accessibility checks before
each memory access. Faster than KASAN_OUTLINE (gives ~x2 boost for
some workloads), but makes the kernel's .text size much bigger.

bool "Stack instrumentation (unsafe)" if CC_IS_CLANG && !COMPILE_TEST

depends on !ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE
default y if CC_IS_GCC
help
Disables stack instrumentation and thus KASAN's ability to detect
out-of-bounds bugs in stack variables.
With Clang, stack instrumentation has a problem that causes excessive
stack usage, see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809. Thus,
with Clang, this option is deemed unsafe.
This option is always disabled when compile-testing with Clang to
avoid cluttering the log with stack overflow warnings.
With GCC, enabling stack instrumentation is assumed to be safe.
If the architecture disables inline instrumentation via
ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE, stack instrumentation gets disabled
as well, as it adds inline-style instrumentation that is run
unconditionally.
config KASAN_VMALLOC
bool "Check accesses to vmalloc allocations"
depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_VMALLOC
help
Makes KASAN check the validity of accesses to vmalloc allocations.
With software KASAN modes, all types vmalloc allocations are
checked. Enabling this option leads to higher memory usage.
With Hardware Tag-Based KASAN, only non-executable VM_ALLOC mappings
are checked. There is no additional memory usage.

A KUnit-based KASAN test suite. Triggers different kinds of
out-of-bounds and use-after-free accesses. Useful for testing whether
KASAN can detect certain bug types.
