[PATCH -rcu/kcsan 12/23] kcsan: Ignore GCC 11+ warnings about TSan runtime support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



GCC 11 has introduced a new warning option, -Wtsan [1], to warn about
unsupported operations in the TSan runtime. But KCSAN != TSan runtime,
so none of the warnings apply.

[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-11.1.0/gcc/Warning-Options.html

Ignore the warnings.

Currently the warning only fires in the test for __atomic_thread_fence():

kernel/kcsan/kcsan_test.c: In function ‘test_atomic_builtins’:
kernel/kcsan/kcsan_test.c:1234:17: warning: ‘atomic_thread_fence’ is not supported with ‘-fsanitize=thread’ [-Wtsan]
 1234 |                 __atomic_thread_fence(__ATOMIC_SEQ_CST);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

which exists to ensure the KCSAN runtime keeps supporting the builtin
instrumentation.
