Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] kasan: Add explicit preconditions to kasan_report()
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2021 14:37:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210122143748.50089-3-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210122143748.50089-1-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com>

With the introduction of KASAN_HW_TAGS, kasan_report() dereferences
the address passed as a parameter.

Add a comment to make sure that the preconditions to the function are
explicitly clarified.

Note: An invalid address (e.g. NULL) passed to the function when,
KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled, leads to a kernel panic.
