Thanks for picking this up. I was trying out KASan in the past, got sidetracked and honestly lost interest a bit because it was boring. But I do realize that it is really neat, so I will try to help out with some review and test on a bunch of hardware I have.
At one point I even had this running on the ARMv4 SA1100 (no joke!) and if I recall correctly, I got stuck because of things that might very well have been related to using a very fragile Arm testchip that later broke down completely in the l2cache when we added the spectre/meltdown fixes.
I start reviewing and testing.
Yours, Linus Walleij
