Only functions that are instrumented, i.e. wherever fsanitize=kernel-address inserts instrumentation. > Based on the LLVM patch description, should we also change the normal > memcpy/memset/memmove to be noninstrumented? They are no longer instrumented as of 69d4c0d32186 (for CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY arches). > These __asan_mem* functions are not defined in the kernel AFAICS. > Should we add them? Peter introduced them in 69d4c0d32186, and we effectively have no mem*() instrumentation on x86 w/o the compiler-enablement patch here. > Or maybe we should just use "__" as the prefix, as right now __mem* > functions are the ones that are not instrumented? __asan_mem* is for instrumented code, just like ASan userspace does (actually ASan userspace has been doing it like this forever, just the kernel was somehow special).

KASAN + GCC on x86 will have no mem*() instrumentation after 69d4c0d32186, which is sad, so somebody ought to teach it the same param as above. Thanks, -- Marco
