This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled kasan: always respect CONFIG_KASAN_STACK to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: kasan-always-respect-config_kasan_stack.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e9b6e780a163c5f44cd54b03e84304c034027417 Author: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Sep 24 15:44:00 2021 -0700 kasan: always respect CONFIG_KASAN_STACK [ Upstream commit 19532869feb9b0a97d17ddc14609d1e53a5b60db ] Currently, the asan-stack parameter is only passed along if CFLAGS_KASAN_SHADOW is not empty, which requires KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET to be defined in Kconfig so that the value can be checked. In RISC-V's case, KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET is not defined in Kconfig, which means that asan-stack does not get disabled with clang even when CONFIG_KASAN_STACK is disabled, resulting in large stack warnings with allmodconfig: drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays/panel-lgphilips-lb035q02.c:117:12: error: stack frame size (14400) exceeds limit (2048) in function 'lb035q02_connect' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than] static int lb035q02_connect(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev) ^ 1 error generated. Ensure that the value of CONFIG_KASAN_STACK is always passed along to the compiler so that these warnings do not happen when CONFIG_KASAN_STACK is disabled.
