See Documentation/dev-tools/kasan.rst for details. if KASAN choice prompt "KASAN mode" default KASAN_GENERIC help KASAN has two modes: generic KASAN (similar to userspace ASan, x86_64/arm64/xtensa, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC) and software tag-based KASAN (a version based on software memory tagging, arm64 only, similar to userspace HWASan, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS). Both generic and tag-based KASAN are strictly debugging features. config KASAN_GENERIC bool "Generic mode" depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN && CC_HAS_KASAN_GENERIC depends on (SLUB && SYSFS) || (SLAB && !DEBUG_SLAB) select SLUB_DEBUG if SLUB select CONSTRUCTORS select STACKDEPOT help Enables generic KASAN mode. This mode is supported in both GCC and Clang. With GCC it requires version 8.3.0 or later. Any supported Clang version is compatible, but detection of out-of-bounds accesses for global variables is supported only since Clang 11. This mode consumes about 1/8th of available memory at kernel start and introduces an overhead of ~x1.5 for the rest of the allocations. The performance slowdown is ~x3. For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE. Currently CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB (the resulting kernel does not boot). config KASAN_SW_TAGS bool "Software tag-based mode" depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS && CC_HAS_KASAN_SW_TAGS depends on (SLUB && SYSFS) || (SLAB && !DEBUG_SLAB) select SLUB_DEBUG if SLUB select CONSTRUCTORS select STACKDEPOT help Enables software tag-based KASAN mode. This mode requires Top Byte Ignore support by the CPU and therefore is only supported for arm64. This mode requires Clang. This mode consumes about 1/16th of available memory at kernel start and introduces an overhead of ~20% for the rest of the allocations. This mode may potentially introduce problems relating to pointer casting and comparison, as it embeds tags into the top byte of each pointer. For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE. Currently CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS doesn't work with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB (the resulting kernel does not boot). endchoice choice prompt "Instrumentation type" default KASAN_OUTLINE config KASAN_OUTLINE bool "Outline instrumentation" help Before every memory access compiler insert function call __asan_load*/__asan_store*. These functions performs check of shadow memory. This is slower than inline instrumentation, however it doesn't bloat size of kernel's .text section so much as inline does. config KASAN_INLINE bool "Inline instrumentation" help Compiler directly inserts code checking shadow memory before memory accesses. This is faster than outline (in some workloads it gives about x2 boost over outline instrumentation), but make kernel's .text size much bigger. endchoice config KASAN_STACK_ENABLE bool "Enable stack instrumentation (unsafe)" if CC_IS_CLANG && !COMPILE_TEST help The LLVM stack address sanitizer has a know problem that causes excessive stack usage in a lot of functions, see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809 Disabling asan-stack makes it safe to run kernels build with clang-8 with KASAN enabled, though it loses some of the functionality. This feature is always disabled when compile-testing with clang to avoid cluttering the output in stack overflow warnings, but clang users can still enable it for builds without CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST. On gcc it is assumed to always be safe to use and enabled by default. config KASAN_STACK int default 1 if KASAN_STACK_ENABLE || CC_IS_GCC default 0 config KASAN_S390_4_LEVEL_PAGING bool "KASan: use 4-level paging" depends on S390 help Compiling the kernel with KASan disables automatic 3-level vs 4-level paging selection. 3-level paging is used by default (up to 3TB of RAM with KASan enabled). This options allows to force 4-level paging instead. config KASAN_SW_TAGS_IDENTIFY bool "Enable memory corruption identification" depends on KASAN_SW_TAGS help This option enables best-effort identification of bug type (use-after-free or out-of-bounds) at the cost of increased memory consumption. config KASAN_VMALLOC bool "Back mappings in vmalloc space with real shadow memory" depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_VMALLOC help By default, the shadow region for vmalloc space is the read-only zero page. This means that KASAN cannot detect errors involving vmalloc space. Enabling this option will hook in to vmap/vmalloc and back those mappings with real shadow memory allocated on demand. This allows for KASAN to detect more sorts of errors (and to support vmapped stacks), but at the cost of higher memory usage. config TEST_KASAN tristate "Module for testing KASAN for bug detection" depends on m help This is a test module doing various nasty things like out of bounds accesses, use after free. It is useful for testing kernel debugging features like KASAN. endif # KASAN
