6.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Breno Leitao <leitao@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5b5baba6222255d29626f63c41f101379ec5400b ] KCSAN has identified a potential data race in debugobjects, where the global variable debug_objects_maxchain is accessed for both reading and writing simultaneously in separate and parallel data paths. This results in the following splat printed by KCSAN: BUG: KCSAN: data-race in debug_check_no_obj_freed / debug_object_activate write to 0xffffffff847ccfc8 of 4 bytes by task 734 on cpu 41: debug_object_activate (lib/debugobjects.c:199 lib/debugobjects.c:564 lib/debugobjects.c:710) call_rcu (kernel/rcu/rcu.h:227 kernel/rcu/tree.c:2719 kernel/rcu/tree.c:2838) security_inode_free (security/security.c:1626) __destroy_inode (./include/linux/fsnotify.h:222 fs/inode.c:287) ... read to 0xffffffff847ccfc8 of 4 bytes by task 384 on cpu 31: debug_check_no_obj_freed (lib/debugobjects.c:1000 lib/debugobjects.c:1019) kfree (mm/slub.c:2081 mm/slub.c:4280 mm/slub.c:4390) percpu_ref_exit (lib/percpu-refcount.c:147) css_free_rwork_fn (kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:5357) ... value changed: 0x00000070 -> 0x00000071 The data race is actually harmless as this is just used for debugfs statistics, as all other debug variables. Annotate all debug variables as racy explicitly, since these variables are known to be racy and harmless.
