[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.2 12/16] powerpc/kcsan: Exclude udelay to prevent recursive instrumentation

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Mar 05 2023 - 08:53:43 EST


From: Rohan McLure <rmclure@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2a7ce82dc46c591c9244057d89a6591c9639b9b9 ]

In order for KCSAN to increase its likelihood of observing a data race,
it sets a watchpoint on memory accesses and stalls, allowing for
detection of conflicting accesses by other kernel threads or interrupts.

Stalls are implemented by injecting a call to udelay in instrumented code.
To prevent recursive instrumentation, exclude udelay from being instrumented.
