From f87cbcb345d059f0377b4fa0ba1b766a17fc3710 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2024 12:29:12 +0200 Subject: timekeeping: Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for tick_do_timer_cpu tick_do_timer_cpu is used lockless to check which CPU needs to take care of the per tick timekeeping duty. This is done to avoid a thundering herd problem on jiffies_lock. The read and writes are not annotated so KCSAN complains about data races: BUG: KCSAN: data-race in tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick / tick_nohz_next_event write to 0xffffffff8a2bda30 of 4 bytes by task 0 on cpu 26: tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick+0x3b1/0x4a0 do_idle+0x1e3/0x250 read to 0xffffffff8a2bda30 of 4 bytes by task 0 on cpu 16: tick_nohz_next_event+0xe7/0x1e0 tick_nohz_get_sleep_length+0xa7/0xe0 menu_select+0x82/0xb90 cpuidle_select+0x44/0x60 do_idle+0x1c2/0x250 value changed: 0x0000001a -> 0xffffffff Annotate them with READ/WRITE_ONCE() to document the intentional data race.
