> +Tag-based KASAN uses the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature of modern arm64 CPUs to
> +store a pointer tag in the top byte of kernel pointers. Like generic KASAN it
> +uses shadow memory to store memory tags associated with each 16-byte memory
> +cell (therefore it dedicates 1/16th of the kernel memory for shadow memory).
> +
> +On each memory allocation tag-based KASAN generates a random tag, tags the
> +allocated memory with this tag, and embeds this tag into the returned pointer.
> +Software tag-based KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation to insert checks
> +before each memory access. These checks make sure that tag of the memory that
> +is being accessed is equal to tag of the pointer that is used to access this
> +memory. In case of a tag mismatch tag-based KASAN prints a bug report.
> +
> +Software tag-based KASAN also has two instrumentation modes (outline, that
> +emits callbacks to check memory accesses; and inline, that performs the shadow
> +memory checks inline). With outline instrumentation mode, a bug report is
> +simply printed from the function that performs the access check. With inline
> +instrumentation a brk instruction is emitted by the compiler, and a dedicated
> +brk handler is used to print bug reports.
