If there's no good reason, we could move them to mte.h.This is here because it is not a direct interface as you noticed. I tried to keep the separation (even if it I have something to fix based on your comment below ;)). The other kasan implementation define the arch_* indirection in asm/memory.h in every architecture. I think maintaining the design is the best way to non create confusion.
I'm ok with asm/memory.h for kasan, no need to change that. You can also keep these functions in asm/mte-kasan.h but add a comment that they are only for the kasan interface defined in asm/memory.h.

And this include should be replaced by asm/mte-hwdef.h.

Slightly confusing.mte_assign_mem_tag_range() is the internal function implemented in assembler which is not used directly by KASAN. Is it the name that you find confusing? Do you have a better proposal?
I don't mind the name, just trying to find some consistency in the headers.

I wonder whether we'd need the "memory" clobber. I don't see how this would fail though, maybe later on with stack tagging if the compiler writes tags behind our back.As you said, I do not see how this can fail either. We can be overcautious though here and add a comment that the clobber has been added in prevision of stack tagging.
I don't think we should bother, it may not even matter.

+ */ +SYM_FUNC_START(mte_assign_mem_tag_range) + /* if (src == NULL) return; */ + cbz x0, 2f + /* if (size == 0) return; */ + cbz x1, 2fI find these checks unnecessary, as I said a couple of times before, just document the function pre-conditions. They are also incomplete (i.e. you check for NULL but not alignment).I thought we agreed to harden the code further, based on [1]. Maybe I misunderstood. I am going to remove them and extend the comment in the next version. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/921c4ed0-b5b5-bc01-5418-c52d80f1af59@arm.com/ (local)
Well, you concluded that but I haven't confirmed ;). Since it's called from a single place which does the checks already, I don't see the point in duplicating them. Documenting should be sufficient. -- Catalin _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
