The quilt patch titled Subject: kmsan: do not wipe out origin when doing partial unpoisoning has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kmsan-do-not-wipe-out-origin-when-doing-partial-unpoisoning.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexander Potapenko glider@google.com Subject: kmsan: do not wipe out origin when doing partial unpoisoning Date: Tue, 28 May 2024 12:48:06 +0200

As noticed by Brian, KMSAN should not be zeroing the origin when unpoisoning parts of a four-byte uninitialized value, e.g.:

char a[4]; kmsan_unpoison_memory(a, 1);

This led to false negatives, as certain poisoned values could receive zero origins, preventing those values from being reported.

To fix the problem, check that kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin() writes zero origins only to slots which have zero shadow.
