McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Mon, 27 Apr 2020 11:01:16 -07:00 rcu: Mark rcu_state.gp_seq to detect more concurrent writes The rcu_state structure's gp_seq field is only to be modified by the RCU grace-period kthread, which is single-threaded. This commit therefore enlists KCSAN's help in enforcing this restriction. This commit applies KCSAN-specific primitives, so cannot go upstream until KCSAN does. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
