Subject: [PATCH v12 2/6] kasan: allow architectures to provide an outline readiness check
Date:   Tue, 15 Jun 2021 11:47:01 +1000
Message-Id: <20210615014705.2234866-3-dja@axtens.net>
In-Reply-To: <20210615014705.2234866-1-dja@axtens.net>

Allow architectures to define a kasan_arch_is_ready() hook that bails
out of any function that's about to touch the shadow unless the arch
says that it is ready for the memory to be accessed. This is fairly
uninvasive and should have a negligible performance penalty.

This will only work in outline mode, so an arch must specify
ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE if it requires this.

I discuss the justfication for this later in the series. Also,
both previous RFCs for ppc64 - by 2 different people - have
needed this trick! See:
 - https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/592820/ # ppc64 hash series
 - https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/795211/      # ppc radix series
