kasan, mm: don't save alloc stacks twice
Patch series "kasan: optimizations and fixes for HW_TAGS", v4.
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%.
This patch (of 13):
Currently KASAN saves allocation stacks in both kasan_slab_alloc() and
kasan_kmalloc() annotations. This patch changes KASAN to save allocation
stacks for slab objects from kmalloc caches in kasan_kmalloc() only, and
stacks for other slab objects in kasan_slab_alloc() only.
This change requires ____kasan_kmalloc() knowing whether the object
belongs to a kmalloc cache. This is implemented by adding a flag field to
the kasan_info structure. That flag is only set for kmalloc caches via a
new kasan_cache_create_kmalloc() annotation.
