The data race here merely manifests in kernel code, but otherwise the kernel is unaffected (if it were affected, a real fix would be needed). I.e. if we observe this data race, KCSAN is helpfully pointing out that user space has a bug. There are some options to deal with cases like this: 1. Do nothing, and just let KCSAN report the data race. 2. Somehow make KCSAN distinguish in-kernel data races that are due to user space misusing the API. KCSAN can still show the race, but clearly denote the nature of it by e.g. saying "KCSAN: user data-race in ..." (instead of "KCSAN: data-race in ..."). This will require one of 2 things: a. Distinguish the access by memory range. This doesn't seem great, because I don't know if we can apply a general rule like "all races involving this memory are user-space's fault". What if we have data races in the memory range that aren't user-space's fault? b. Mark the accesses somehow, either by providing a region in which all races are deemed user-space's fault. This is likely more problematic than (a), because saying something like "all races in this section of code are user-space's fault" may also hide real issues. Because none of (2.a) or (2.b) seem great, at present I would opt for (1). Anything better we can do here? Thanks, -- Marco
