If CONFIG_KCSAN_STRICT=y, select CONFIG_KCSAN_INTERRUPT_WATCHER as well. With interruptible watchers, we'll also report same-CPU data races; if we requested strict mode, we might as well show these, too. Suggested-by: Paul E.

The Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic
|
|
data-race detector that relies on compile-time instrumentation.
|
|
KCSAN uses a watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect races.
|
|
|
|
While KCSAN's primary purpose is to detect data races, it
|
|
also provides assertions to check data access constraints.
|
|
These assertions can expose bugs that do not manifest as
|
|
data races.

The compiler instruments plain compound read-write operations

While this option should generally be benign, we call into more
