Dear Maintainer, Please enable the support for Linear Address Masking (CONFIG_ADDRESS_MASKING). Linear Address Masking (LAM) modifies the checking that is applied to 64-bit linear addresses, allowing software to use of the untranslated address bits for metadata. The capability can be used for efficient address sanitizers (ASAN) implementation and for optimizations in JITs. A MR was created with this proposal at: https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/merge_requests/1217 Thanks, Jair Gonzalez
