The KASAN subsystem wraps calls to memcpy(), memset() and memmove() to sanitize the arguments before invoking the actual routines, which have been renamed to __memcpy(), __memset() and __memmove(), respectively. When CONFIG_KASAN is enabled for the kernel build but KASAN code generation is disabled for the compilation unit (which is needed for things like the EFI stub or the decompressor), the string routines are just #define'd to their __ prefixed names so that they are simply invoked directly. This does however rely on those __ prefixed names to exist in the symbol namespace, which is not currently the case for the x86 decompressor, which may lead to errors like drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/tpm.o: In function `efi_retrieve_tpm2_eventlog': tpm.c:(.text+0x2a8): undefined reference to `__memcpy' So let's expose the __ prefixed symbols in the decompressor when KASAN is enabled.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
