Hi memory tagging folks, While debugging something else, I ended up running v6.4 on an arm64 (v9) fastmodel with both CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y and CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS=y. This makes the system pretty unusable, as I see a tonne of kmalloc Redzone corruption messages pretty much straight out of startup (example below). Please can you take a look? Cheers, Will --->8 [ 0.000000] SLUB: HWalign=64, Order=0-3, MinObjects=0, CPUs=8, Nodes=1 [ 0.000000] ============================================================================= [ 0.000000] BUG kmalloc-128 (Not tainted): kmalloc Redzone overwritten [ 0.000000] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 0.000000] [ 0.000000] 0xffff00080001a9b0-0xf1ff00080001a9ff @offset=2480.
