From 42eaa27d9e7aafb4049fc3a5b02005a917013e65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Potapenko Date: Thu, 15 Sep 2022 17:04:04 +0200 Subject: security: kmsan: fix interoperability with auto-initialization Heap and stack initialization is great, but not when we are trying uses of uninitialized memory. When the kernel is built with KMSAN, having kernel memory initialization enabled may introduce false negatives. We disable CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN and CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO under CONFIG_KMSAN, making it impossible to auto-initialize stack variables in KMSAN builds. We also disable CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON to prevent accidental use of heap auto-initialization. We however still let the users enable heap auto-initialization at boot-time (by setting init_on_alloc=1 or init_on_free=1), in which case a warning is printed.
