Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] powerpc: kcsan: Exclude udelay to prevent recursive instrumentation
Date: Wed,  1 Feb 2023 15:34:35 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230201043438.1301212-3-rmclure@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230201043438.1301212-1-rmclure@linux.ibm.com>

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.
