# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only config HAVE_ARCH_KCSAN bool menuconfig KCSAN bool "KCSAN: watchpoint-based dynamic data race detector" depends on HAVE_ARCH_KCSAN && !KASAN && STACKTRACE help Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer is a dynamic data race detector, which uses a watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect races. See for more details. if KCSAN config KCSAN_DEBUG bool "Debugging of KCSAN internals" config KCSAN_SELFTEST bool "Perform short selftests on boot" default y help Run KCSAN selftests on boot. On test failure, causes the kernel to panic. config KCSAN_EARLY_ENABLE bool "Early enable during boot" default y help If KCSAN should be enabled globally as soon as possible. KCSAN can later be enabled/disabled via debugfs. config KCSAN_NUM_WATCHPOINTS int "Number of available watchpoints" default 64 help Total number of available watchpoints. An address range maps into a specific watchpoint slot as specified in kernel/kcsan/encoding.h. Although larger number of watchpoints may not be usable due to limited number of CPUs, a larger value helps to improve performance due to reducing cache-line contention. The chosen default is a conservative value; we should almost never observe "no_capacity" events (see /sys/kernel/debug/kcsan). config KCSAN_UDELAY_TASK int "Delay in microseconds (for tasks)" default 80 help For tasks, the microsecond delay after setting up a watchpoint. config KCSAN_UDELAY_INTERRUPT int "Delay in microseconds (for interrupts)" default 20 help For interrupts, the microsecond delay after setting up a watchpoint. Interrupts have tighter latency requirements, and their delay should be lower than for tasks. config KCSAN_DELAY_RANDOMIZE bool "Randomize above delays" default y help If delays should be randomized, where the maximum is KCSAN_UDELAY_*. If false, the chosen delays are always the KCSAN_UDELAY_* values as defined above. config KCSAN_SKIP_WATCH int "Skip instructions before setting up watchpoint" default 4000 help The number of per-CPU memory operations to skip, before another watchpoint is set up, i.e. one in KCSAN_WATCH_SKIP per-CPU memory operations are used to set up a watchpoint. A smaller value results in more aggressive race detection, whereas a larger value improves system performance at the cost of missing some races. config KCSAN_SKIP_WATCH_RANDOMIZE bool "Randomize watchpoint instruction skip count" default y help If instruction skip count should be randomized, where the maximum is KCSAN_WATCH_SKIP. If false, the chosen value is always KCSAN_WATCH_SKIP. # Note that, while some of the below options could be turned into boot # parameters, to optimize for the common use-case, we avoid this because: (a) # it would impact performance (and we want to avoid static branch for all # {READ,WRITE}_ONCE, atomic_*, bitops, etc.), and (b) complicate the design # without real benefit. The main purpose of the below options is for use in # fuzzer configs to control reported data races, and they are not expected # to be switched frequently by a user. config KCSAN_REPORT_RACE_UNKNOWN_ORIGIN bool "Report races of unknown origin" default y help If KCSAN should report races where only one access is known, and the conflicting access is of unknown origin. This type of race is reported if it was only possible to infer a race due to a data value change while an access is being delayed on a watchpoint. config KCSAN_REPORT_VALUE_CHANGE_ONLY bool "Only report races where watcher observed a data value change" default y help If enabled and a conflicting write is observed via a watchpoint, but the data value of the memory location was observed to remain unchanged, do not report the data race. config KCSAN_IGNORE_ATOMICS bool "Do not instrument marked atomic accesses" help If enabled, never instruments marked atomic accesses. This results in not reporting data races where one access is atomic and the other is a plain access. endif # KCSAN
