Overriding -Wframe-larger-than in KVM isn't maintainble or robust, and KVM shouldn't discard the userspace configuration. Can you provide the relevant pieces of your .config? KVM already guards against KASAN, so maybe it's just KCSAN that's problematic? If that's the case, then I believe the below two patches will do the trick. If KVM_WERROR is enabled because WERROR is enabled, then that's working as intended, i.e. the problem is in the config, not in KVM. From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2024 12:03:13 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: Disallow KVM_WERROR if KCSAN and/or KMSAN is enabled Extend KVM_WERROR's incompatibility list to include KCSAN and KMSAN, in addition to the existing KASAN restriction. Like KASAN, KCSAN and KMSAN require more memory and can cause problems with FRAME_WARN.
