bool "KASan: runtime memory debugger"
depends on SLUB_DEBUG
select CONSTRUCTORS
help
Enables kernel address sanitizer - runtime memory debugger,
designed to find out-of-bounds accesses and use-after-free bugs.
This is strictly debugging feature. It consumes about 1/8
of available memory and brings about ~x3 performance slowdown.
For better error detection enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE,
and add slub_debug=U to boot cmdline.

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.

tristate "Module for testing kasan for bug detection"

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 kernel address sanitizer.
