Subject: RE: [PATCH 3/3] mm, slab, kasan: replace kasan_never_merge() with
 SLAB_NO_MERGE


> The SLAB_KASAN flag prevents merging of caches in some configurations,
> which is handled in a rather complicated way via kasan_never_merge().
> Since we now have a generic SLAB_NO_MERGE flag, we can instead use it
> for KASAN caches in addition to SLAB_KASAN in those configurations,
> and simplify the SLAB_NEVER_MERGE handling.

Ran a rough test with build and bootup with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC enabled,
feel free to add

Tested-by: Xiongwei Song <xiongwei.song@...driver.com>

Thanks,
Xiongwei
