Subject: [PATCH] kasan: remove PG_skip_kasan_poison flag
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2023 22:51:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230224065128.505605-1-pcc@google.com> (raw)
Code inspection reveals that PG_skip_kasan_poison is redundant with
kasantag, because the former is intended to be set iff the latter is
the match-all tag. It can also be observed that it's basically pointless
to poison pages which have kasantag=0, because any pages with this tag
would have been pointed to by pointers with match-all tags, so poisoning
the pages would have little to no effect in terms of bug detection.
Therefore, change the condition in should_skip_kasan_poison() to check
kasantag instead, and remove PG_skip_kasan_poison.

I sent this independently of
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230224061550.177541-1-pcc@google.com/
because I initially thought that the patches were independent.
But moments after sending it, I realized that this patch depends on
that one, because without that patch, this patch will end up disabling
page poisoning altogether! But it's too late to turn them into a series
now; I'll do that for v2.
