[PATCH] kasan, mm: fix resetting page_alloc tags for HW_TAGS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A previous commit added resetting KASAN page tags to
kernel_init_free_pages() to avoid false-positives due to accesses to
metadata with the hardware tag-based mode.

That commit did reset page tags before the metadata access, but didn't
restore them after. As the result, KASAN fails to detect bad accesses
to page_alloc allocations on some configurations.

Fix this by recovering the tag after the metadata access.
