+KASAN is supported on powerpc on 32-bit only.
+
+32 bit support
+==============
+
+KASAN is supported on both hash and nohash MMUs on 32-bit.
+
+The shadow area sits at the top of the kernel virtual memory space above the
+fixmap area and occupies one eighth of the total kernel virtual memory space.
+
+Instrumentation of the vmalloc area is optional, unless built with modules,
+in which case it is required.
