Note: Do not worry about hypothetically breaking with sanitizers here -- whether it's KASAN or KCSAN, they both instrument atomics. In files that enable instrumentation but the atomic instrumentation should not be pulled in, use the arch_ variants, but this doesn't apply here because instrumentation shouldn't even be on. The indicator that when KCSAN is supported on arm64, the Makefile here just needs KCSAN_SANITIZE := n, is that all other instrumentation is also killed entirely: $ grep -E "(PROFILE|SANITIZE|INSTRUMENT)" arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/Makefile GCOV_PROFILE := n KASAN_SANITIZE := n UBSAN_SANITIZE := n KCOV_INSTRUMENT := n KCSAN isn't supported on arm64 yet, and when it does, I believe Mark's arm64 KCSAN series should take care of things like this.
