[PATCH -next] locking/osq_lock: annotate a data race in osq_lock
From: Qian Cai
Date: Mon Feb 10 2020 - 23:07:07 EST
prev->next could be accessed concurrently as noticed by KCSAN,
write (marked) to 0xffff9d3370dbbe40 of 8 bytes by task 3294 on cpu 107:
osq_lock+0x25f/0x350
osq_wait_next at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:79
(inlined by) osq_lock at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:185
rwsem_optimistic_spin
<snip>
read to 0xffff9d3370dbbe40 of 8 bytes by task 3398 on cpu 100:
osq_lock+0x196/0x350
osq_lock at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:157
rwsem_optimistic_spin
<snip>
Since the write only stores NULL to prev->next and the read tests if
prev->next equals to this_cpu_ptr(&osq_node). Even if the value is
shattered, the code is still working correctly. Thus, mark it as an
intentional data race using the data_race() macro.
