Subject: [PATCH rcu 8/9] rcu: Eliminate lockless accesses to rcu_sync->gp_count
Date: Tue,  4 Jun 2024 15:23:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240604222355.2370768-8-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <657595c8-e86c-4594-a5b1-3c64a8275607@paulmck-laptop>

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

The rcu_sync structure's ->gp_count field is always accessed under the
protection of that same structure's ->rss_lock field, with the exception
of a pair of WARN_ON_ONCE() calls just prior to acquiring that lock in
functions rcu_sync_exit() and rcu_sync_dtor().  These lockless accesses
are unnecessary and impair KCSAN's ability to catch bugs that might be
inserted via other lockless accesses.

This commit therefore moves those WARN_ON_ONCE() calls under the lock.
