That way, we don't need this additional parameter. Well, my use case is shipping production kernels with CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enabled, and instructing users to boot-time enable only for troubleshooting a crash or memory leak, without a need to install a debug kernel. Things like static keys and page_ext allocations makes this possible without CPU and memory overhead when not boot-time enabled. I don't know too much about KASAN internals, but I assume it's not possible to use it that way on production kernels yet? > I read that KASAN > supposes to be semi-production use ready, so the overhead is relatively low. > There is even a choice to have KASAN_SW_TAGS on arm64 to work better with small > devices.
