With gcc-8 fsanitize=null become very noisy. GCC started to complain about things like &a->b, where 'a' is NULL pointer. There is no NULL dereference, we just calculate address to struct member. It's technically undefined behavior so UBSAN is correct to report it. But as long as there is no real NULL-dereference, I think, we should be fine. -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks compiler flag should protect us from any consequences. So let's just no use -fsanitize=null as it's not useful for us. If there is a real NULL-deref we will see crash. Even if userspace mapped something at NULL (root can do this), with things like SMAP should catch the issue.

This option activates instrumentation for the entire kernel.
|
|
If you don't enable this option, you have to explicitly specify
|
|
UBSAN_SANITIZE := y for the files/directories you want to check for UB.
|
|
Enabling this option will get kernel image size increased
|
|
significantly.

Enabling this option on architectures that support unaligned

It triggers various undefined behavior, and detect it.
