put_user() uses inline assembly with precise constraints, so Clang is in
principle capable of instrumenting it automatically. Unfortunately, one
of the constraints contains a dereferenced user pointer, and Clang does
not currently distinguish user and kernel pointers. Therefore KMSAN
attempts to access shadow for user pointers, which is not a right thing to
do.
An obvious fix to add __no_sanitize_memory to __put_user_fn() does not
work, since it's __always_inline. And __always_inline cannot be removed
due to the __put_user_bad() trick.
A different obvious fix of using the "a" instead of the "+Q" constraint
degrades the code quality, which is very important here, since it's a hot
path.
Instead, repurpose the __put_user_asm() macro to define
__put_user_{char,short,int,long}_noinstr() functions and mark them with
__no_sanitize_memory. For the non-KMSAN builds make them __always_inline
in order to keep the generated code quality. Also define
__put_user_{char,short,int,long}() functions, which call the
aforementioned ones and which *are* instrumented, because they call KMSAN
hooks, which may be implemented as macros.
The same applies to get_user() as well.

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.
