[PATCH] kasan: distinguish kasan report from generic BUG()

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

 



From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>

The typical KASAN report always begins with

	BUG: KASAN: ....

in kernel log. That 'BUG:' prefix creates a false impression that it's an 
actual BUG() codepath being executed, and as such things like 
'panic_on_oops' etc. would work on it as expected; but that's obviously 
not the case.

Switch the order of prefixes to make this distinction clear and avoid 
confusion.
