From 5ead723a20e0447bc7db33dc3070b420e5f80aa6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Timur Tabi Date: Sun, 14 Feb 2021 10:13:48 -0600 Subject: lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashed If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf(). A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled. Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security risk. Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the command-line option is set.
