[PATCH v6 3/4] mm: kasan: Add free_meta size info in struct kasan_cache

From: Feng Tang
Date: Tue Sep 13 2022 - 02:55:17 EST


When kasan is enabled for slab/slub, it may save kasan' free_meta
data in the former part of slab object data area in slab object's
free path, which works fine.

There is ongoing effort to extend slub's debug function which will
redzone the latter part of kmalloc object area, and when both of
the debug are enabled, there is possible conflict, especially when
the kmalloc object has small size, as caught by 0Day bot [1]

For better information for slab/slub, add free_meta's data size
into 'struct kasan_cache', so that its users can take right action
to avoid data conflict.
