66
67	  1. Generic KASAN (supported by many architectures, enabled with
68	     CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, similar to userspace ASan),
69	  2. Software Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on software memory
70	     tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, similar to userspace
71	     HWASan), and
72	  3. Hardware Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware memory
73	     tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).

161	help
162	  Disables stack instrumentation and thus KASAN's ability to detect
163	  out-of-bounds bugs in stack variables.
164
165	  With Clang, stack instrumentation has a problem that causes excessive
166	  stack usage, see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809. Thus,
167	  with Clang, this option is deemed unsafe.
168
169	  This option is always disabled when compile-testing with Clang to
170	  avoid cluttering the log with stack overflow warnings.
171
172	  With GCC, enabling stack instrumentation is assumed to be safe.
173
174	  If the architecture disables inline instrumentation via
175	  ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE, stack instrumentation gets disabled
176	  as well, as it adds inline-style instrumentation that is run
177	  unconditionally.

184
185	  With software KASAN modes, all types vmalloc allocations are
186	  checked. Enabling this option leads to higher memory usage.
187
