We never considered increasing scale in user space due to performance implications. But the algorithm always supported up to 128x scale.

It is definitely useful all else being equal. But it does considerably increase code size and complexity, which is an important aspect. Also note that there is also fixed size quarantine (1/32 of RAM) and redzones. Reducing shadow overhead beyond some threshold has diminishing returns, because overall overhead will be just dominated by quarantine/redzones. What's your target devices and constraints? We run KASAN on phones today without any issues. > Note that increasing shadow scale has it's own trade-off. It requires > that the size of slab object is aligned to shadow scale.

I've tried to retest your latest change on top of http://git.cmpxchg.org/cgit.cgi/linux-mmots.git d9cd9c95cc3b2fed0f04d233ebf2f7056741858c, but now this version https://codereview.appspot.com/325780043 always crashes during boot for me. Report points to zero shadow.
