__kasan_unpoison_pages() colours the memory with a random tag and stores it in page->flags in order to re-create the tagged pointer via page_to_virt() later. When the tag from the page->flags is read, ensure that the in-memory tags are already visible by re-ordering the page_kasan_tag_set() after kasan_unpoison(). The former already has barriers in place through try_cmpxchg(). On the reader side, the order is ensured by the address dependency between page->flags and the memory access.

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.
