Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
c9527bebb0
The n_barrier_successes, n_barrier_attempts, and n_rcu_torture_barrier_error variables are updated (without access markings) by the main rcu_barrier() test kthread, and accessed (also without access markings) by the rcu_torture_stats() kthread. This of course can result in KCSAN complaints. Because the accesses are in diagnostic prints, this commit uses data_race() to excuse the diagnostic prints from the data race. If this were to ever cause bogus statistics prints (for example, due to store tearing), any misleading information would be disambiguated by the presence or absence of an rcutorture splat. This data race was reported by KCSAN. Not appropriate for backporting due to failure being unlikely and due to the mild consequences of the failure, namely a confusing rcutorture console message.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
