KASAN's boot time kernel parameter 'kasan.fault=' currently supports 'report' and 'panic', which results in either only reporting bugs or also panicking on reports. However, some users may wish to have more control over when KASAN reports result in a kernel panic: in particular, KASAN reported invalid _writes_ are of special interest, because they have greater potential to corrupt random kernel memory or be more easily exploited. To panic on invalid writes only, introduce 'kasan.fault=panic_on_write', which allows users to choose to continue running on invalid reads, but panic only on invalid writes.

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.
