[PATCH 1/3] lib: early_string: allow early usage of some string functions

Daniel Walker danielwa at cisco.com
Fri Apr 30 14:22:14 AEST 2021


This systems allows some string functions to be moved into
lib/early_string.c and they will be prepended with "early_" and compiled
without debugging like KASAN.

This is already done on x86 for,
"AMD Secure Memory Encryption (SME) support"

and on powerpc prom_init.c , and EFI's libstub.

The AMD memory feature disabled KASAN for all string functions, and
prom_init.c and efi libstub implement their own versions of the
functions.

This implementation allows sharing of the string functions without
removing the debugging features for the whole system.
