  30          KASAN has two modes: generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan,
  31          x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC) and
  32          software tag-based KASAN (a version based on software memory
  33          tagging, arm64 only, similar to userspace HWASan, enabled with
  34          CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS).
  35          Both generic and tag-based KASAN are strictly debugging features.

  46          Supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires version 4.9.2
  47          or later for basic support and version 5.0 or later for detection of
  48          out-of-bounds accesses for stack and global variables and for inline
  49          instrumentation mode (CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE). With Clang it requires
  50          version 3.7.0 or later and it doesn't support detection of
  51          out-of-bounds accesses for global variables yet.
  52          This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start
  53          and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations.
  54          The performance slowdown is ~x3.
  55          For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.

  57          (the resulting kernel does not boot).

  67          Enables software tag-based KASAN mode.
  68          This mode requires Top Byte Ignore support by the CPU and therefore
  69          is only supported for arm64.
  70          This mode requires Clang version 7.0.0 or later.
  71          This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start
  72          and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations.
  73          This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer
  74          casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each
  75          pointer.
  76          For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE.
  77          Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB

  90          Before every memory access compiler insert function call
  91          __asan_load*/__asan_store*. These functions performs check
  92          of shadow memory. This is slower than inline instrumentation,
  93          however it doesn't bloat size of kernel's .text section so
  94          much as inline does.

  99          Compiler directly inserts code checking shadow memory before
 100          memory accesses. This is faster than outline (in some workloads
 101          it gives about x2 boost over outline instrumentation), but

 111          The LLVM stack address sanitizer has a know problem that

 113          https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809
 114          Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build
 115          with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of
 116          the functionality.
 117          This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang
 118          to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow warnings,
 119          but clang users can still enable it for builds without
 120          CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.  On gcc it is assumed to always be safe
 121          to use and enabled by default.

 132          Compiling the kernel with KASan disables automatic 3-level vs
 133          4-level paging selection. 3-level paging is used by default (up
 134          to 3TB of RAM with KASan enabled). This options allows to force
