Subject: [PATCH] mm: use compare-exchange operation to set KASAN page tag
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2022 19:14:34 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220113031434.464992-1-pcc@google.com> (raw)

It has been reported that the tag setting operation on newly-allocated
pages can cause the page flags to be corrupted when performed
concurrently with other flag updates as a result of the use of
non-atomic operations. Fix the problem by using a compare-exchange
loop to update the tag.
