commit09833d99dbupstream. KFENCE does not currently support KASAN hardware tags. As a result, the two features are incompatible when enabled simultaneously. Given that MTE provides deterministic protection and KFENCE is a sampling-based debugging tool, prioritize the stronger hardware protections. Disable KFENCE initialization and free the pre-allocated pool if KASAN hardware tags are detected to ensure the system maintains the security guarantees provided by MTE.
