<content type='text'>
Lockdep and KMSAN used to play badly together, causing deadlocks when
KMSAN instrumentation of lockdep.c called lockdep functions recursively.

Looks like this is no more the case, and a kernel can run (yet slower)
with both KMSAN and lockdep enabled.  This patch should fix false
positives on wq_head-&gt;lock-&gt;dep_map, which KMSAN used to consider
uninitialized because of lockdep.c not being instrumented.

EFI stub cannot be linked with KMSAN runtime, so we disable
instrumentation for it.

Instrumenting kcov, stackdepot or lockdep leads to infinite recursion
caused by instrumentation hooks calling instrumented code again.

<title>lockdep: report broken irq restoration</title>

<id>997acaf6b4b59c6a9c259740312a69ea549cc684</id>
<content type='text'>
We generally expect local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() to be
paired and sanely nested, and so local_irq_restore() expects to be
called with irqs disabled. Thus, within local_irq_restore() we only
trace irq flag changes when unmasking irqs.

This means that a sequence such as:

| local_irq_disable();
| local_irq_save(flags);
| local_irq_enable();
| local_irq_restore(flags);

... is liable to break things, as the local_irq_restore() would mask
irqs without tracing this change. Similar problems may exist for
architectures whose arch_irq_restore() function depends on being called
with irqs disabled.

We don't consider such sequences to be a good idea, so let's define
those as forbidden, and add tooling to detect such broken cases.

This patch adds debug code to WARN() when raw_local_irq_restore() is
called with irqs enabled. As raw_local_irq_restore() is expected to pair
with raw_local_irq_save(), it should never be called with irqs enabled.

To avoid the possibility of circular header dependencies between
irqflags.h and bug.h, the warning is handled in a separate C file.

The new code is all conditional on a new CONFIG_DEBUG_IRQFLAGS symbol
which is independent of CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS. As noted above such cases
will confuse lockdep, so CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP now selects
CONFIG_DEBUG_IRQFLAGS.

<title>kcsan: Make KCSAN compatible with lockdep</title>

<id>f1bc96210c6a6b853b4b2eec808141956e8fbc5d</id>
<content type='text'>
We must avoid any recursion into lockdep if KCSAN is enabled on utilities
used by lockdep. One manifestation of this is corruption of lockdep's
IRQ trace state (if TRACE_IRQFLAGS), resulting in spurious warnings
(see below).  This commit fixes this by:

1. Using raw_local_irq{save,restore} in kcsan_setup_watchpoint().
2. Disabling lockdep in kcsan_report().

Tested with:

  CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
  CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y
  CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y

This fix eliminates spurious warnings such as the following one:

We must avoid any recursion into lockdep if KCSAN is enabled on utilities
used by lockdep. One manifestation of this is corruption of lockdep's
IRQ trace state (if TRACE_IRQFLAGS), resulting in spurious warnings
(see below).  This commit fixes this by:

1. Using raw_local_irq{save,restore} in kcsan_setup_watchpoint().
2. Disabling lockdep in kcsan_report().

Tested with:

  CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
  CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y
  CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y

This fix eliminates spurious warnings such as the following one:

<title>locking/rwsem: Merge rwsem.h and rwsem-xadd.c into rwsem.c</title>

Now we only have one implementation of rwsem. Even though we still use
xadd to handle reader locking, we use cmpxchg for writer instead. So
the filename rwsem-xadd.c is not strictly correct. Also no one outside
of the rwsem code need to know the internal implementation other than
function prototypes for two internal functions that are called directly
from percpu-rwsem.c.

So the rwsem-xadd.c and rwsem.h files are now merged into rwsem.c in
the following order:

  &lt;upper part of rwsem.h&gt;
  &lt;rwsem-xadd.c&gt;
  &lt;lower part of rwsem.h&gt;
  &lt;rwsem.c&gt;

The rwsem.h file now contains only 2 function declarations for
__up_read() and __down_read().

This is a code relocation patch with no code change at all except
making __up_read() and __down_read() non-static functions so they
can be used by percpu-rwsem.c.

<title>locking/lock_events: Make lock_events available for all archs &amp; other locks</title>

<id>fb346fd9fc081c3d978c3f3d26d39334527a2662</id>
<content type='text'>
The QUEUED_LOCK_STAT option to report queued spinlocks event counts
was previously allowed only on x86 architecture. To make the locking
event counting code more useful, it is now renamed to a more generic
LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS config option. This new option will be available to
all the architectures that use qspinlock at the moment.

Other locking code can now start to use the generic locking event
counting code by including lock_events.h and put the new locking event
names into the lock_events_list.h header file.

My experience with lock event counting is that it gives valuable insight
on how the locking code works and what can be done to make it better. I
would like to extend this benefit to other locking code like mutex and
rwsem in the near future.

The PV qspinlock specific code will stay in qspinlock_stat.h. The
locking event counters will now reside in the &lt;debugfs&gt;/lock_event_counts
directory.
