This patchset makes the HW_TAGS mode more efficient, mostly by reworking
poisoning approaches and simplifying/inlining some internal helpers.
With this change, the overhead of HW_TAGS annotations excluding setting
and checking memory tags is ~3%. The performance impact caused by tags
will be unknown until we have hardware that supports MTE.
As a side-effect, this patchset speeds up generic KASAN by ~15%.
Changes v2->v3:
- Rebased onto mm.
- Add documentation update patch.
Changes v1->v2:
- Use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for arm64 symbols.
- Rename kmalloc bool flag argument to is_kmalloc.
- Make empty mte_set_mem_tag_range() return void.
- Fix build warning in 32-bit systems by using unsigned long instead
of u64 in WARN_ON() checks.
- Minor changes in comments and commit descriptions.
- Use kfence_ksize() before __ksize() to avoid crashes with KFENCE.
- Use inline instead of __always_inline.
