Abbott submitted a v5 about a year ago here: and the series was not picked up since then, so I rebased it against v5.2-rc4 and re-tested it on a Brahma-B53 (ARMv8 running AArch32 mode) and Brahma-B15, both LPAE and test-kasan is consistent with the ARM64 counter part. We were in a fairly good shape last time with a few different people having tested it, so I am hoping we can get that included for 5.4 if everything goes well.Thanks for picking this up. I was trying out KASan in the past, got sidetracked and honestly lost interest a bit because it was boring. But I do realize that it is really neat, so I will try to help out with some review and test on a bunch of hardware I have. At one point I even had this running on the ARMv4 SA1100 (no joke!) and if I recall correctly, I got stuck because of things that might very well have been related to using a very fragile Arm testchip that later broke down completely in the l2cache when we added the spectre/meltdown fixes.
A blast from the past!
I start reviewing and testing.
Great, thanks a lot for taking a look. FYI, I will be on holiday from July 19th till August 12th, if you think you have more feedback between now and then, I can try to pick it up and submit a v7 with that feedback addressed, or it will happen when I return, or you can pick it up if you refer, all options are possible! @Arnd, should we squash your patches in as well? -- Florian _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
