[PATCH 0/5] kasan: detect invalid frees

[Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>]

KASAN detects double-frees, but does not detect invalid-frees
(when a pointer into a middle of heap object is passed to free).
We recently had a very unpleasant case in crypto code which freed
an inner object inside of a heap allocation. This left unnoticed
during free, but totally corrupted heap and later lead to a bunch
of random crashes all over kernel code.

Detect invalid frees.

Dmitry Vyukov (5):
  kasan: detect invalid frees for large objects
  kasan: don't use __builtin_return_address(1)
  kasan: detect invalid frees for large mempool objects
  kasan: unify code between kasan_slab_free() and kasan_poison_kfree()
  kasan: detect invalid frees
