kcsan, seqlock: Support seqcount_latch_t
While fuzzing an arm64 kernel, Alexander Potapenko reported: | BUG: KCSAN: data-race in ktime_get_mono_fast_ns / timekeeping_update | | write to 0xffffffc082e74248 of 56 bytes by interrupt on cpu 0: | update_fast_timekeeper kernel/time/timekeeping.c:430 [inline] | timekeeping_update+0x1d8/0x2d8 kernel/time/timekeeping.c:768 | timekeeping_advance+0x9e8/0xb78 kernel/time/timekeeping.c:2344 | update_wall_time+0x18/0x38 kernel/time/timekeeping.c:2360 | [...] | | read to 0xffffffc082e74258 of 8 bytes by task 5260 on cpu 1: | __ktime_get_fast_ns kernel/time/timekeeping.c:372 [inline] | ktime_get_mono_fast_ns+0x88/0x174 kernel/time/timekeeping.c:489 | init_srcu_struct_fields+0x40c/0x530 kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:263 | init_srcu_struct+0x14/0x20 kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:311 | [...] | | value changed: 0x000002f875d33266 -> 0x000002f877416866 | | Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: | CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 5260 Comm: syz.2.7483 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc3-dirty torvalds#78 This is a false positive data race between a seqcount latch writer and a reader accessing stale data. Since its introduction, KCSAN has never understood the seqcount_latch interface (due to being unannotated). Unlike the regular seqlock interface, the seqcount_latch interface for latch writers never has had a well-defined critical section, making it difficult to teach tooling where the critical section starts and ends. Introduce an instrumentable (non-raw) seqcount_latch interface, with which we can clearly denote writer critical sections. This both helps readability and tooling like KCSAN to understand when the writer is done updating all latch copies.
