Series kasan: add hardware tag-based mode for arm64 | expand

Commit Message

Andrey Konovalov Nov. 10, 2020, 10:10 p.m. UTC
This patch adds a configuration option for a new KASAN mode called
hardware tag-based KASAN. This mode uses the memory tagging approach
like the software tag-based mode, but relies on arm64 Memory Tagging
Extension feature for tag management and access checking.

It might make sense to add a comment to
CC_HAS_WORKING_NOSANITIZE_ADDRESS describing which modes need it (and
why).
