The patch titled Subject: kasan: adopt kmalloc_uaf2 test to HW_TAGS mode has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kasan-adopt-kmalloc_uaf2-test-to-hw_tags-mode.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kasan: adopt kmalloc_uaf2 test to HW_TAGS mode In the kmalloc_uaf2() test, the pointers to the two allocated memory blocks might be the same, and the test will fail. With the software tag-based mode, the probability of the that happening is 1/254, so it's hard to observe the failure. For the hardware tag-based mode though, the probablity is 1/14, which is quite noticable. Allow up to 4 attempts at generating different tags for the tag-based modes.
