kcsan: Add Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer infrastructure Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic data-race detector for kernel space. KCSAN is a sampling watchpoint-based data-race detector. See the included Documentation/dev-tools/kcsan.rst for more details. This patch adds basic infrastructure, but does not yet enable KCSAN for any architecture.

kcsan: Avoid inserting __tsan_func_entry/exit if possible To avoid inserting __tsan_func_{entry,exit}, add option if supported by compiler. Currently only Clang can be told to not emit calls to these functions. It is safe to not emit these, since KCSAN does not rely on them. Note that, if we disable __tsan_func_{entry,exit}(), we need to disable tail-call optimization in sanitized compilation units, as otherwise we may skip frames in the stack trace; in particular when the tail called function is one of the KCSAN's runtime functions, and a report is generated, we might miss the function where the actual access occurred. Since __tsan_func_{entry,exit}() insertion effectively disabled tail-call optimization, there should be no observable change. This was caught and confirmed with kcsan-test & UNWINDER_ORC.

kcsan: Support distinguishing volatile accesses In the kernel, the "volatile" keyword is used in various concurrent contexts, whether in low-level synchronization primitives or for legacy reasons. If supported by the compiler, it will be assumed that aligned volatile accesses up to sizeof(long long) (matching compiletime_assert_rwonce_type()) are atomic. Recent versions of Clang [1] (GCC tentative [2]) can instrument volatile accesses differently. Add the option (required) to enable the instrumentation, and provide the necessary runtime functions. None of the updated compilers are widely available yet (Clang 11 will be the first release to support the feature).

kcsan: Pass option tsan-instrument-read-before-write to Clang Clang (unlike GCC) removes reads before writes with matching addresses in the same basic block. This is an optimization for TSAN, since writes will always cause conflict if the preceding read would have. However, for KCSAN we cannot rely on this option, because we apply several special rules to writes, in particular when the KCSAN_ASSUME_PLAIN_WRITES_ATOMIC option is selected. To avoid missing potential data races, pass the -tsan-instrument-read-before-write option to Clang if it is available [1].
