Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Add memory corruption identification at bug report for software tag-based mode. The report shows whether it is "use-after-free" or "out-of-bound" error instead of "invalid-access" error. This will make it easier for programmers to see the memory corruption problem. We extend the slab to store five old free pointer tag and free backtrace, we can check if the tagged address is in the slab record and make a good guess if the object is more like "use-after-free" or "out-of-bound". therefore every slab memory corruption can be identified whether it's "use-after-free" or "out-of-bound".

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.
