To be honest I don't care much about the name but just thought it's just better to be consistent with Catalin's series: ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN for static alignment and arch_kmalloc_minalign() for (possibly bigger) alignment decided at runtime. > > > extern int ioc_enable; > > > diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h b/arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h > > > index e3ea34558ada..3e1018bb9805 100644 > > > --- a/arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h > > > +++ b/arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h > > > @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ > > > * With EABI on ARMv5 and above we must have 64-bit aligned slab pointers. > > > */ > > > #if defined(CONFIG_AEABI) && (__LINUX_ARM_ARCH__ >= 5) > > > -#define ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN 8 > > > +#define ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN 8 > > > #endif > > > > > > #define __read_mostly __section(".data..read_mostly") > > > diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/asm/cache.h b/arch/arm64/include/asm/cache.h > > > index a074459f8f2f..38f171591c3f 100644 > > > --- a/arch/arm64/include/asm/cache.h > > > +++ b/arch/arm64/include/asm/cache.h > > > @@ -6,6 +6,7 @@ > > > #define __ASM_CACHE_H > > > > > > #include <asm/cputype.h> > > > +#include <asm/mte-def.h> > > > > > > #define CTR_L1IP_SHIFT 14 > > > #define CTR_L1IP_MASK 3 > > > @@ -49,15 +50,21 @@ > > > */ > > > #define ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (128) > > > > > > -#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS > > > -#define ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN (1ULL << KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) > > > -#elif defined(CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS) > > > -#define ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN MTE_GRANULE_SIZE > > > -#endif > > > - > > > #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ > > > > > > #include <linux/bitops.h> > > > +#include <linux/kasan-enabled.h> > > > + > > > +#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS > > > +#define ARCH_SLAB_MIN_MINALIGN (1ULL << KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) > > > +#elif defined(CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS) > > > +static inline size_t arch_slab_minalign(void) > > > +{ > > > + return kasan_hw_tags_enabled() ?

Otherwise we are lying to the compiler. It's okay If we use just power-of-two alignment. But adding a comment wouldn't harm :) Thank you for the work. I think the patch makes sense as usually people don't build and install their kernel for arm64 machines. > Peter -- Thanks, Hyeonggon
