[v5] kasan: x86: arm64: KASAN tag-based mode for x86

[PATCH v5 04/19] x86: Add arch specific kasan functions

Posted by Maciej Wieczor-Retman 1 month, 1 week ago

KASAN's software tag-based mode needs multiple macros/functions to
handle tag and pointer interactions - to set, retrieve and reset tags
from the top bits of a pointer.

Mimic functions currently used by arm64 but change the tag's position to
bits [60:57] in the pointer.

---
Changelog v4:
- Rewrite __tag_set() without pointless casts and make it more readable.

Changelog v3:
- Reorder functions so that __tag_*() etc are above the
  arch_kasan_*() ones.
- Remove CONFIG_KASAN condition from __tag_set()

This requires some ifdef magic to avoid getting this into vdso32 image build process,
otherwise we'll get this warning:

Thanks for noticing that, I'll fix it :)

Nit: can remove this empty line.
