[patch 59/78] kasan: allow VMAP_STACK for HW_TAGS mode

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

 



From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kasan: allow VMAP_STACK for HW_TAGS mode

Even though hardware tag-based mode currently doesn't support checking
vmalloc allocations, it doesn't use shadow memory and works with
VMAP_STACK as is. Change VMAP_STACK definition accordingly.
