+	bool "KFENCE: low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector"

+	help
+	  KFENCE is a low-overhead sampling-based detector of heap out-of-bounds
+	  access, use-after-free, and invalid-free errors. KFENCE is designed
+	  to have negligible cost to permit enabling it in production
+	  environments.
+
+	  See <file:Documentation/dev-tools/kfence.rst> for more details.
+
+	  Note that, KFENCE is not a substitute for explicit testing with tools
+	  such as KASAN. KFENCE can detect a subset of bugs that KASAN can
+	  detect, albeit at very different performance profiles. If you can
+	  afford to use KASAN, continue using KASAN, for example in test
+	  environments. If your kernel targets production use, and cannot
+	  enable KASAN due to its cost, consider using KFENCE.

+config KFENCE_SAMPLE_INTERVAL
+	int "Default sample interval in milliseconds"
+	default 100
+	help
+	  The KFENCE sample interval determines the frequency with which heap
+	  allocations will be guarded by KFENCE. May be overridden via boot
+	  parameter "kfence.sample_interval".
+
+	  Set this to 0 to disable KFENCE by default, in which case only
+	  setting "kfence.sample_interval" to a non-zero value enables KFENCE.
+
+config KFENCE_NUM_OBJECTS
+	int "Number of guarded objects available"
+	range 1 65535
+	default 255
+	help
+	  The number of guarded objects available. For each KFENCE object, 2
+	  pages are required; with one containing the object and two adjacent
+	  ones used as guard pages.
+
+config KFENCE_DEFERRABLE
+	bool "Use a deferrable timer to trigger allocations"
+	help
+	  Use a deferrable timer to trigger allocations. This avoids forcing
+	  CPU wake-ups if the system is idle, at the risk of a less predictable
+	  sample interval.
+
+	  Warning: The KUnit test suite fails with this option enabled - due to
+	  the unpredictability of the sample interval!
+
+	  Say N if you are unsure.
+
+config KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS
+	bool "Use static keys to set up allocations" if EXPERT
+	depends on JUMP_LABEL
+	help
+	  Use static keys (static branches) to set up KFENCE allocations. This
+	  option is only recommended when using very large sample intervals, or
+	  performance has carefully been evaluated with this option.
+
+	  Using static keys comes with trade-offs that need to be carefully
+	  evaluated given target workloads and system architectures. Notably,
+	  enabling and disabling static keys invoke IPI broadcasts, the latency
+	  and impact of which is much harder to predict than a dynamic branch.
+
+	  Say N if you are unsure.
+
+config KFENCE_STRESS_TEST_FAULTS
+	int "Stress testing of fault handling and error reporting" if EXPERT
+	default 0
+	help
+	  The inverse probability with which to randomly protect KFENCE object
+	  pages, resulting in spurious use-after-frees. The main purpose of
+	  this option is to stress test KFENCE with concurrent error reports
+	  and allocations/frees. A value of 0 disables stress testing logic.
+
+	  Only for KFENCE testing; set to 0 if you are not a KFENCE developer.

+config KFENCE_KUNIT_TEST

+	depends on TRACEPOINTS && KUNIT
+	help
+	  Test suite for KFENCE, testing various error detection scenarios with
+	  various allocation types, and checking that reports are correctly
+	  output to console.
+
+	  Say Y here if you want the test to be built into the kernel and run
+	  during boot; say M if you want the test to build as a module; say N
+	  if you are unsure.
