[PATCH v2 0/7] kasan: various fixes

Show all headers | View raw

This patchset contains various fixes for KASAN. That includes:

1. Improving reported bug types.

Making KASAN distinguish and report the following types of bugs:
slab-out-of-bounds, stack-out-of-bounds, global-out-of-bounds
use-after-free, null-ptr-deref, user-memory-access, wild-memory-access.

2. Making references to the tool name consistent.

We decided to use KASAN as the short name of the tool since a lot of
people already use it, and KernelAddressSanitizer as the full name
to be consistent with the userspace AddressSantizer.

Changes since v1:
- rebased on top of the latest -mm
