I'm not sufficiently familiar with KASAN to be able to interpret this.
Perhaps Andrey can shed some light?
The lack of symbol decoding is a problem.
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE=y
It should be there. Perhaps it is not because this error is itself
(possibly) related to kallsyms changes?
Probably. I had seen something similar (crash and no symbols) with an earlier
version of the patch,
if the symbols were not created. There might be a message in the log,
indicating that kallsyms
failed to generate the symbols.
