Add support for match-all tags and GOT-free runtime calls, which
are both required for the kernel to be able to support outlined
checks. This requires extending the access info to let the backend
know when to enable these features. To make the code easier to maintain
introduce an enum with the bit field positions for the access info.
Allow outlined checks to be enabled with -mllvm
-hwasan-inline-all-checks=0. Kernels that contain runtime support for
outlined checks may pass this flag. Kernels lacking runtime support
will continue to link because they do not pass the flag. Old versions
of LLVM will ignore the flag and continue to use inline checks.
With a separate kernel patch [1] I measured the code size of defconfig
+ tag-based KASAN, as well as boot time (i.e. time to init launch)
on a DragonBoard 845c with an Android arm64 GKI kernel. The results
are below:
code size boot time
before 92824064 6.18s
after 38822400 6.65s

Depends on D90425
why not enum HWASanAccessInfo { ...?
