The size of kasan_early_shadow_pte[] now is PTRS_PER_PTE which defined
to 512 for arm. This means that it only covers the prev Linux pte
entries, but not the HWTABLE pte entries for arm.
The reason it currently works is that the symbol kasan_early_shadow_page
immediately following kasan_early_shadow_pte in memory is page aligned,
which makes kasan_early_shadow_pte look like a 4KB size array. But we
can't ensure the order is always right with different compiler/linker,
or if more bss symbols are introduced.
We had a test with QEMU + vexpress:put a 512KB-size symbol with
attribute __section(".bss..page_aligned") after kasan_early_shadow_pte,
and poisoned it after kasan_early_init(). Then enabled CONFIG_KASAN, it
failed to boot up.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
