Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into locking/kcsan
Pull the KCSAN subsystem from Paul E. McKenney: "This pull request contains base kernel concurrency sanitizer (KCSAN) enablement for x86, courtesy of Marco Elver. KCSAN is a sampling watchpoint-based data-race detector, and is documented in Documentation/dev-tools/kcsan.rst. KCSAN was announced in September, and much feedback has since been incorporated: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CANpmjNPJ_bHjfLZCAPV23AXFfiPiyXXqqu72n6TgWzb2Gnu1eA@mail.gmail.com The data races located thus far have resulted in a number of fixes: https://github.com/google/ktsan/wiki/KCSAN#upstream-fixes-of-data-races-found-by-kcsan Additional information may be found here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191114180303.66955-1-elver@google.com/ " Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
