fae4f4debf kcsan: Fix debugfs initcall return type
commit 976aac5f882989e4f6c1b3a7224819bf0e801c6a upstream.

clang with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG points out that an initcall function should
return an 'int' due to the changes made to the initcall macros in commit
3578ad11f3fb ("init: lto: fix PREL32 relocations"):

kernel/kcsan/debugfs.c:274:15: error: returning 'void' from a function with incompatible result type 'int'
late_initcall(kcsan_debugfs_init);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/init.h:292:46: note: expanded from macro 'late_initcall'
 #define late_initcall(fn)               __define_initcall(fn, 7)

5a876a46d7 kcsan, debugfs: Move debugfs file creation out of early init
commit e36299efe7d749976fbdaaf756dee6ef32543c2c upstream.

Commit 56348560d495 ("debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file
before the filesystem is initalized") forbids creating new debugfs files
until debugfs is fully initialized.  This means that KCSAN's debugfs
file creation, which happened at the end of __init(), no longer works.
And was apparently never supposed to work!

However, there is no reason to create KCSAN's debugfs file so early.
This commit therefore moves its creation to a late_initcall() callback.

2e986b81f6 kcsan: Optimize debugfs stats counters
Remove kcsan_counter_inc/dec() functions, as they perform no other
logic, and are no longer needed.

This avoids several calls in kcsan_setup_watchpoint() and
kcsan_found_watchpoint(), as well as lets the compiler warn us about
potential out-of-bounds accesses as the array's size is known at all
usage sites at compile-time.

4700ccdf18 kcsan: Remove debugfs test command
Remove the debugfs test command, as it is no longer needed now that we
have the KUnit+Torture based kcsan-test module. This is to avoid
confusion around how KCSAN should be tested, as only the kcsan-test
module is maintained.

a4e74fa5f0 kcsan: Simplify constant string handling
Simplify checking prefixes and length calculation of constant strings.
For the former, the kernel provides str_has_prefix(), and the latter we
should just use strlen("..") because GCC and Clang have optimizations
that optimize these into constants.

No functional change intended.

d8949ef1d9 kcsan: Introduce scoped ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE macros
Introduce ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_*_SCOPED(), which provide an intuitive
interface to use the scoped-access feature, without having to explicitly
mark the start and end of the desired scope. Basing duration of the
checks on scope avoids accidental misuse and resulting false positives,
which may be hard to debug. See added comments for usage.

The macros are implemented using __attribute__((__cleanup__(func))),
which is supported by all compilers that currently support KCSAN.

44656d3dc4 kcsan: Add current->state to implicitly atomic accesses
Add volatile current->state to list of implicitly atomic accesses. This
is in preparation to eventually enable KCSAN on kernel/sched (which
currently still has KCSAN_SANITIZE := n).

Since accesses that match the special check in atomic.h are rare, it
makes more sense to move this check to the slow-path, avoiding the
additional compare in the fast-path. With the microbenchmark, a speedup
of ~6% is measured.

703b321501 kcsan: Introduce ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_BITS(var, mask)
This introduces ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_BITS(var, mask).
ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_BITS(var, mask) will cause KCSAN to assume that the
following access is safe w.r.t. data races (however, please see the
docbook comment for disclaimer here).

For more context on why this was considered necessary, please see:

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1580995070-25139-1-git-send-email-cai@lca.pw

In particular, before this patch, data races between reads (that use
@mask bits of an access that should not be modified concurrently) and
writes (that change ~@mask bits not used by the readers) would have been
annotated with "data_race()" (or "READ_ONCE()"). However, doing so would
then hide real problems: we would no longer be able to detect harmful
races between reads to @mask bits and writes to @mask bits.

Therefore, by using ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_BITS(var, mask), we accomplish:

  1. Avoid proliferation of specific macros at the call sites: by
     including a single mask in the argument list, we can use the same
     macro in a wide variety of call sites, regardless of how and which
     bits in a field each call site actually accesses.

  2. The existing code does not need to be modified (although READ_ONCE()
     may still be advisable if we cannot prove that the data race is
     always safe).

  3. We catch bugs where the exclusive bits are modified concurrently.

  4. We document properties of the current code.

Add 'test=<iters>' option to KCSAN's debugfs interface to invoke KCSAN
checks on a dummy variable. By writing 'test=<iters>' to the debugfs
file from multiple tasks, we can generate real conflicts, and trigger

d591ec3db7 kcsan: Introduce KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT access type
The KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT access type may be used to introduce dummy reads
and writes to assert certain properties of concurrent code, where bugs
could not be detected as normal data races.

For example, a variable that is only meant to be written by a single
CPU, but may be read (without locking) by other CPUs must still be
marked properly to avoid data races. However, concurrent writes,
regardless if WRITE_ONCE() or not, would be a bug. Using
kcsan_check_access(&x, sizeof(x), KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT) would allow
catching such bugs.

To support KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT the following notable changes were made:

  * If an access is of type KCSAN_ASSERT_ACCESS, disable various filters
    that only apply to data races, so that all races that KCSAN observes are
    reported.
  * Bug reports that involve an ASSERT access type will be reported as
    "KCSAN: assert: race in ..." instead of "data-race"; this will help
    more easily distinguish them.
  * Update a few comments to just mention 'races' where we do not always
    mean pure data races.

5cbaefe974 kcsan: Improve various small stylistic details
Tidy up a few bits:

  - Fix typos and grammar, improve wording.

  - Remove spurious newlines that are col80 warning artifacts where the
    resulting line-break is worse than the disease it's curing.

  - Use core kernel coding style to improve readability and reduce
    spurious code pattern variations.

  - Use better vertical alignment for structure definitions and initialization
    sequences.

  - Misc other small details.

No change in functionality intended.

dfd402a4c4 kcsan: Add Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer infrastructure
Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic data-race detector for
kernel space. KCSAN is a sampling watchpoint-based data-race detector.
See the included Documentation/dev-tools/kcsan.rst for more details.

This patch adds basic infrastructure, but does not yet enable KCSAN for
any architecture.
