This is the patch-series for the Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN).
KCSAN is a sampling watchpoint-based data-race detector. More details
are included in Documentation/dev-tools/kcsan.rst. This patch-series
only enables KCSAN for x86, but we expect adding support for other
architectures is relatively straightforward (we are aware of
experimental ARM64 and POWER support).

To gather early feedback, we announced KCSAN back in September, and
have integrated the feedback where possible:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CANpmjNPJ_bHjfLZCAPV23AXFfiPiyXXqqu72n6TgWzb2Gnu1eA@mail.gmail.com

We want to point out and acknowledge the work surrounding the LKMM,
including several articles that motivate why data-races are dangerous
[1, 2], justifying a data-race detector such as KCSAN.
[1] https://lwn.net/Articles/793253/
[2] https://lwn.net/Articles/799218/

The current list of known upstream fixes for data-races found by KCSAN
can be found here:

Changelog
---------
v3:
* Major changes:
 - Add microbenchmark.
 - Add instruction watchpoint skip randomization.
 - Refactor API and core runtime fast-path and slow-path. Compared to
   the previous version, with a default config and benchmarked using the
   added microbenchmark, this version is 3.8x faster.
 - Make __tsan_unaligned __alias of generic accesses.
 - Rename kcsan_{begin,end}_atomic ->
   kcsan_{nestable,flat}_atomic_{begin,end}
 - For filter list in debugfs.c use kmalloc+krealloc instead of
   kvmalloc.
 - Split Documentation into separate patch.

v2: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191017141305.146193-1-elver@google.com
* Major changes:
 - Replace kcsan_check_access(.., {true, false}) with
   kcsan_check_{read,write}.
 - Change atomic-instrumented.h to use __atomic_check_{read,write}.
 - Use common struct kcsan_ctx in task_struct and for per-CPU interrupt
   contexts.

v1: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191016083959.186860-1-elver@google.com

Making this more accessible to more people seems like a good thing.
So, for the series:

Much appreciated. Thanks, Paul!

Any suggestions which tree this could eventually land in?

I checked and we're both unclear what the most obvious tree to land in
is (the other sanitizers are mm related, which KCSAN is not).

One suggestion that comes to my mind is for KCSAN to go through the
same tree (rcu?) as the LKMM due to their inherent relationship. Would
that make most sense?

And I have queued it and pushed it to -rcu.  It is still in the section
of -rcu subject to rebasing, so if you have a later v5, I can replace
this with the newer version.

I am assuming that you do -not- wish to target the upcoming merge window
(v5.5), but rather then next one (v5.6).  Please let me know right away
if I am assuming wrong.

							Thanx, Paul
