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.
