From cdf6a273dc4346277ab9d148ef29f6e058624a8c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Konovalov Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2015 18:51:01 -0800 Subject: kasan: accurately determine the type of the bad access Makes KASAN accurately determine the type of the bad access. If the shadow byte value is in the [0, KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE) range we can look at the next shadow byte to determine the type of the access.
