After commit69d4c0d321("entry, kasan, x86: Disallow overriding mem*() functions") and the follow-up fixes, with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE enabled, even though the compiler instruments meminstrinsics by generating calls to __asan/__hwasan_ prefixed functions, FORTIFY_SOURCE still uses uninstrumented memset/memmove/memcpy as the underlying functions. As a result, KASAN cannot detect bad accesses in memset/memmove/memcpy. This also makes KASAN tests corrupt kernel memory and cause crashes. To fix this, use __asan_/__hwasan_memset/memmove/memcpy as the underlying functions whenever appropriate. Do this only for the instrumented code (as indicated by __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
