Subject: x86/kasan: Panic if there is not enough memory to boot
From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0d39e2669d7b0fefd2d8f9e7868ae669b364d9ba upstream.
Currently KASAN doesn't panic in case it don't have enough memory
to boot. Instead, it crashes in some random place:
kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c:27!
RIP: 0010:__phys_addr+0x268/0x276
Call Trace:
kasan_populate_shadow+0x3f2/0x497
kasan_init+0x12e/0x2b2
setup_arch+0x2825/0x2a2c
start_kernel+0xc8/0x15f4
x86_64_start_reservations+0x2a/0x2c
x86_64_start_kernel+0x72/0x75
secondary_startup_64+0xa5/0xb0
Use memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid() for allocations without failure
fallback. It will panic with an out of memory message.
