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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
