Emission of __asan_init_vx needs to be disabled when -fsanitize=kernel-address. Our kernel does not boot with them at all. It probably hits some limit for something that can be increased. But I don't want to investigate what that limit is, as __asan_init is not needed for kasan at all. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
