The patch titled Subject: kmsan: unpoison @tlb in arch_tlb_gather_mmu() has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is kmsan-unpoison-tlb-in-arch_tlb_gather_mmu.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/kmsan-unpoison-tlb-in-arch_tlb_gather_mmu.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kmsan: unpoison @tlb in arch_tlb_gather_mmu() Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 17:07:42 +0200 This is an optimization to reduce stackdepot pressure. struct mmu_gather contains 7 1-bit fields packed into a 32-bit unsigned int value. The remaining 25 bits remain uninitialized and are never used, but KMSAN updates the origin for them in zap_pXX_range() in mm/memory.c, thus creating very long origin chains. This is technically correct, but consumes too much memory. Unpoisoning the whole structure will prevent creating such chains.
