The patch titled Subject: mm: kmsan: implement kmsan_memmove() has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-kmsan-implement-kmsan_memmove.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-kmsan-implement-kmsan_memmove.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-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: mm: kmsan: implement kmsan_memmove() Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2024 11:18:49 +0100 Provide a hook that can be used by custom memcpy implementations to tell KMSAN that the metadata needs to be copied. Without that, false positive reports are possible in the cases where KMSAN fails to intercept memory initialization.
