kasan: Disable Software Tag-Based KASAN with GCC
Syzbot reports a KASAN failure early during boot on arm64 when building with GCC 12.2.0 and using the Software Tag-Based KASAN mode: | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in smp_build_mpidr_hash arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:133 [inline] | BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in setup_arch+0x984/0xd60 arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:356 | Write of size 4 at addr 03ff800086867e00 by task swapper/0 | Pointer tag: [03], memory tag: [fe] Initial triage indicates that the report is a false positive and a thorough investigation of the crash by Mark Rutland revealed the root cause to be a bug in GCC: > When GCC is passed `-fsanitize=hwaddress` or > `-fsanitize=kernel-hwaddress` it ignores > `__attribute__((no_sanitize_address))`, and instruments functions > we require are not instrumented. > > [...] > > All versions [of GCC] I tried were broken, from 11.3.0 to 14.2.0 > inclusive. > > I think we have to disable KASAN_SW_TAGS with GCC until this is > fixed Disable Software Tag-Based KASAN when building with GCC by making CC_HAS_KASAN_SW_TAGS depend on !CC_IS_GCC.
