The initially proposed KASAN command line parameters are redundant. This change drops the complex "kasan.mode=off/prod/full" parameter and adds a simpler kill switch "kasan=off/on" instead. The new parameter together with the already existing ones provides a cleaner way to express the same set of features. The full set of parameters with this change: kasan=off/on - whether KASAN is enabled kasan.fault=report/panic - whether to only print a report or also panic kasan.stacktrace=off/on - whether to collect alloc/free stack traces Default values: kasan=on kasan.fault=report kasan.stacktrace=on (if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y) kasan.stacktrace=off (otherwise) Link: https://linux-review.googlesource.com/id/Ib3694ed90b1e8ccac6cf77dfd301847af4aba7b8 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/4e9c4a4bdcadc168317deb2419144582a9be6e61.1610736745.git.andreyknvl@google.com Signed-off-by: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com> Reviewed-by: Vincenzo Frascino <vincenzo.frascino@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Peter Collingbourne <pcc@google.com> Cc: Evgenii Stepanov <eugenis@google.com> Cc: Branislav Rankov <Branislav.Rankov@arm.com> Cc: Kevin Brodsky <kevin.brodsky@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
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 Restructured Text 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.
