From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@xxxxxxxxxx> The new attribute maps to __attribute__((disable_sanitizer_instrumentation)), which will be supported by Clang >= 14.0. Future support in GCC is also possible. This attribute disables compiler instrumentation for kernel sanitizer tools, making it easier to implement noinstr. It is different from the existing __no_sanitize* attributes, which may still allow certain types of instrumentation to prevent false positives.
