[PATCH] kasan: test: Bypass __alloc_size checks

From: Kees Cook
Date: Tue Oct 05 2021 - 23:58:16 EST


Intentional overflows, as performed by the KASAN tests, are detected
at compile time[1] (instead of only at run-time) with the addition of
__alloc_size. Fix this by forcing the compiler into not being able to
trust the size used following the kmalloc()s.
