Subject: [PATCH -rcu/kcsan 20/23] mm, kcsan: Enable barrier instrumentation
Date: Tue, 5 Oct 2021 12:59:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211005105905.1994700-21-elver@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211005105905.1994700-1-elver@google.com>
Some memory management calls imply memory barriers that are required to
avoid false positives. For example, without the correct instrumentation,
we could observe data races of the following variant:
T0 | T1
------------------------+------------------------
|
*a = 42; ---+ |
kfree(a); | |
| | b = kmalloc(..); // b == a
<reordered> <-+ | *b = 42; // not a data race!
|
Therefore, instrument memory barriers in all allocator code currently
not being instrumented in a default build.
