-# Linux kernel configs
-
-List of recommended kernel configs for `syzkaller`:
-
-## Syzkaller features
-
-To enable coverage collection, which is extremely important for effective fuzzing:
-```
-CONFIG_KCOV=y
-CONFIG_KCOV_INSTRUMENT_ALL=y
-CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
-```
-
-To show code coverage in web interface:
-```
-CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
-```
-
-For `namespace` sandbox:
-```
-CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y
-CONFIG_USER_NS=y
-CONFIG_UTS_NS=y
-CONFIG_IPC_NS=y
-CONFIG_PID_NS=y
-CONFIG_NET_NS=y
-```
-
-If your kernel doesn't have commits [arm64: setup: introduce kaslr_offset()](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/7ede8665f27cde7da69e8b2fbeaa1ed0664879c5)
- and [kcov: make kcov work properly with KASLR enabled](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/4983f0ab7ffaad1e534b21975367429736475205), disable the following config:
-```
-# CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is not set
-```
-
-## Bug detection configs
-
-Syzkaller is meant to be used with
-[KASAN](https://kernel.org/doc/html/latest/dev-tools/kasan.html) (available upstream with `CONFIG_KASAN=y`),
-[KTSAN](https://github.com/google/ktsan) (prototype available),
-[KMSAN](https://github.com/google/kmsan) (prototype available),
-or [KUBSAN](https://kernel.org/doc/html/latest/dev-tools/ubsan.html) (available upstream with `CONFIG_UBSAN=y`).
-
-Enable `KASAN` for use-after-free and out-of-bounds detection:
-```
-CONFIG_KASAN=y
-CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y
-```
-
-Any other debugging configs, the more the better, here are some that proved to be especially useful:
-```
-CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
-CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y
-CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y
-CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y
-CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y
-CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y
-CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y
-CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y
-CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y
-CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR=y
-CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR=y
-CONFIG_DETECT_HUNG_TASK=y
-CONFIG_WQ_WATCHDOG=y
-```
-
-Increase RCU stall timeout to reduce false positive rate:
-```
-CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT=60
-```
