19 The Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic
20 data-race detector that relies on compile-time instrumentation.
21 KCSAN uses a watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect races.

23 While KCSAN's primary purpose is to detect data races, it
24 also provides assertions to check data access constraints.
25 These assertions can expose bugs that do not manifest as
26 data races.

36 The compiler instruments plain compound read-write operations
37 differently (++, --, +=, -=, |=, &=, etc.), which allows KCSAN to
38 distinguish them from other plain accesses. This is currently
39 supported by Clang 12 or later.

49 While this option should generally be benign, we call into more
50 external functions on report generation; if a race report is
51 generated from any one of them, system stability may suffer due to

95 Although larger number of watchpoints may not be usable due to
96 limited number of CPUs, a larger value helps to improve performance
97 due to reducing cache-line contention. The chosen default is a

237 races where at least one access is marked atomic will never be
