Kernel commit 11167161e553d("kasan, arm64: implement HW_TAGS runtime") introduce a Hardware Tag-Based KASAN(MTE) mode for ARMv8.5 later CPUs, which uses the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature of arm64 CPUs to store a pointer tag in the top byte of kernel pointers.
Currently, crash utility cannot load MTE ramdump due to access the invalid HW Tag-Based kvaddr. Here's the example error message:
please wait... (gathering kmem slab cache data)
crash: invalid kernel virtual address: f1ffff80c000201c type: "kmem_cache objsize/object_size"
please wait... (gathering task table data)
crash: invalid kernel virtual address: f9ffff8239c2cde0 type: "xa_node shift"
This patch replace the orignal generic_is_kvaddr() with arm64_is_kvaddr(), which check the validity for a HW Tag-Based kvaddr. mte_tag_reset() is used to convert a Tag-Based kvaddr to untaggged kvaddr in arm64_VTOP() and arm64_IS_VMALLOC_ADDR().
