The KASAN-for-JIT feature introduced in the kernel comes with a wide variety of selftests ensuring that the relevant KASAN instrumentation is correctly emitted in JITed program. The validation of this instrumentation is performed by checking the presence (or absence) of KASAN splats in the kernel logs, which are then picked by the CI splat detector, despite being expected. Add a list of regex matching all the KASAN splats that can be emitted by the programs involved in KASAN-for-JIT selftests. The added expressions filter on the test programs names, so any other splat is still picked by the splat detector. Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <[email protected]>
