When a thread detects that a memory location was modified without its
watchpoint being hit, the report notes that a change was detected, but
does not provide concrete values for the change. Knowing the concrete
values can be very helpful in tracking down any racy writers (e.g. as
specific values may only be written in some portions of code, or under
certain conditions).
When we detect a modification, let's report the concrete old/new values,
along with the access's mask of relevant bits (and which relevant bits
were modified). This can make it easier to identify potential racy
writers. As the snapshots are at most 8 bytes, we can only report values
for acceses up to this size, but this appears to cater for the common
case.
When we detect a race via a watchpoint, we may or may not have concrete
values for the modification. To be helpful, let's attempt to log them
when we do as they can be ignored where irrelevant.
The resulting reports appears as follows, with values zero-padded to the
access width:

Now that the reporting code has been refactored, it's clear by
construction that print_report() can only be passed
KCSAN_REPORT_RACE_SIGNAL or KCSAN_REPORT_RACE_UNKNOWN_ORIGIN, and these
can also be distinguished by the presence of `other_info`.
Let's simplify things and remove the report type enum, and instead let's
check `other_info` to distinguish these cases. This allows us to remove
code for cases which are impossible and generally makes the code simpler.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Currently kcsan_report() is used to handle three distinct cases:
* The caller hit a watchpoint when attempting an access. Some
information regarding the caller and access are recorded, but no
output is produced.
* A caller which previously setup a watchpoint detected that the
watchpoint has been hit, and possibly detected a change to the
location in memory being watched. This may result in output reporting
the interaction between this caller and the caller which hit the
watchpoint.
* A caller detected a change to a modification to a memory location
which wasn't detected by a watchpoint, for which there is no
information on the other thread. This may result in output reporting
the unexpected change.
... depending on the specific case the caller has distinct pieces of
information available, but the prototype of kcsan_report() has to handle
all three cases. This means that in some cases we pass redundant
information, and in others we don't pass all the information we could
pass. This also means that the report code has to demux these three
cases.
So that we can pass some additional information while also simplifying
the callers and report code, add separate kcsan_report_*() functions for
the distinct cases, updating callers accordingly. As the watchpoint_idx
is unused in the case of kcsan_report_unknown_origin(), this passes a
dummy value into kcsan_report(). Subsequent patches will refactor the
report code to avoid this.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Commit 56348560d495 ("debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file
before the filesystem is initalized") forbids creating new debugfs files
until debugfs is fully initialized. This means that KCSAN's debugfs
file creation, which happened at the end of __init(), no longer works.
And was apparently never supposed to work!
However, there is no reason to create KCSAN's debugfs file so early.
This commit therefore moves its creation to a late_initcall() callback.

Remove kcsan_counter_inc/dec() functions, as they perform no other
logic, and are no longer needed.
This avoids several calls in kcsan_setup_watchpoint() and
kcsan_found_watchpoint(), as well as lets the compiler warn us about
potential out-of-bounds accesses as the array's size is known at all
usage sites at compile-time.

To improve the general usefulness of the IRQ state trace events with
KCSAN enabled, save and restore the trace information when entering and
exiting the KCSAN runtime as well as when generating a KCSAN report.
Without this, reporting the IRQ trace events (whether via a KCSAN report
or outside of KCSAN via a lockdep report) is rather useless due to
continuously being touched by KCSAN. This is because if KCSAN is
enabled, every instrumented memory access causes changes to IRQ trace
events (either by KCSAN disabling/enabling interrupts or taking
report_lock when generating a report).
Before "lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking", KCSAN avoided
touching the IRQ trace events via raw_local_irq_save/restore() and
lockdep_off/on().

To avoid deadlock in case watchers can be interrupted, we need to ensure
that producers of the struct other_info can never be blocked by an
unrelated consumer. (Likely to occur with KCSAN_INTERRUPT_WATCHER.)
There are several cases that can lead to this scenario, for example:
1. A watchpoint A was set up by task T1, but interrupted by
interrupt I1. Some other thread (task or interrupt) finds
watchpoint A consumes it, and sets other_info. Then I1 also
finds some unrelated watchpoint B, consumes it, but is blocked
because other_info is in use. T1 cannot consume other_info
because I1 never returns -> deadlock.
2. A watchpoint A was set up by task T1, but interrupted by
interrupt I1, which also sets up a watchpoint B. Some other
thread finds watchpoint A, and consumes it and sets up
other_info with its information. Similarly some other thread
finds watchpoint B and consumes it, but is then blocked because
other_info is in use. When I1 continues it sees its watchpoint
was consumed, and that it must wait for other_info, which
currently contains information to be consumed by T1. However, T1
cannot unblock other_info because I1 never returns -> deadlock.
To avoid this, we need to ensure that producers of struct other_info
always have a usable other_info entry. This is obviously not the case
with only a single instance of struct other_info, as concurrent
producers must wait for the entry to be released by some consumer (which
may be locked up as illustrated above).
While it would be nice if producers could simply call kmalloc() and
append their instance of struct other_info to a list, we are very
limited in this code path: since KCSAN can instrument the allocators
themselves, calling kmalloc() could lead to deadlock or corrupted
allocator state.
Since producers of the struct other_info will always succeed at
try_consume_watchpoint(), preceding the call into kcsan_report(), we
know that the particular watchpoint slot cannot simply be reused or
consumed by another potential other_info producer. If we move removal of
a watchpoint after reporting (by the consumer of struct other_info), we
can see a consumed watchpoint as a held lock on elements of other_info,
if we create a one-to-one mapping of a watchpoint to an other_info
element.
Therefore, the simplest solution is to create an array of struct
other_info that is as large as the watchpoints array in core.c, and pass
the watchpoint index to kcsan_report() for producers and consumers, and
change watchpoints to be removed after reporting is done.
With a default config on a 64-bit system, the array other_infos consumes
~37KiB. For most systems today this is not a problem. On smaller memory
constrained systems, the config value CONFIG_KCSAN_NUM_WATCHPOINTS can
be reduced appropriately.
Overall, this change is a simplification of the prepare_report() code,
and makes some of the checks (such as checking if at least one access is
a write) redundant.
Tested:
$ tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh \
--cpus 12 --duration 10 --kconfig "CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y \
CONFIG_KCSAN=y CONFIG_KCSAN_ASSUME_PLAIN_WRITES_ATOMIC=n \
CONFIG_KCSAN_REPORT_VALUE_CHANGE_ONLY=n \
CONFIG_KCSAN_REPORT_ONCE_IN_MS=100000 CONFIG_KCSAN_VERBOSE=y \
CONFIG_KCSAN_INTERRUPT_WATCHER=y CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y" \
--configs TREE03
=> No longer hangs and runs to completion as expected.

When setting up an access mask with kcsan_set_access_mask(), KCSAN will
only report races if concurrent changes to bits set in access_mask are
observed. Conveying access_mask via a separate call avoids introducing
overhead in the common-case fast-path.

Introduces kcsan_value_change type, which explicitly points out if we
either observed a value-change (TRUE), or we could not observe one but
cannot rule out a value-change happened (MAYBE). The MAYBE state can
either be reported or not, depending on configuration preferences.
A follow-up patch introduces the FALSE state, which should never be
reported.

The KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT access type may be used to introduce dummy reads
and writes to assert certain properties of concurrent code, where bugs
could not be detected as normal data races.
For example, a variable that is only meant to be written by a single
CPU, but may be read (without locking) by other CPUs must still be
marked properly to avoid data races. However, concurrent writes,
regardless if WRITE_ONCE() or not, would be a bug. Using
kcsan_check_access(&x, sizeof(x), KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT) would allow
catching such bugs.
To support KCSAN_ACCESS_ASSERT the following notable changes were made:
* If an access is of type KCSAN_ASSERT_ACCESS, disable various filters
that only apply to data races, so that all races that KCSAN observes are
reported.
* Bug reports that involve an ASSERT access type will be reported as
"KCSAN: assert: race in ..." instead of "data-race"; this will help
more easily distinguish them.
* Update a few comments to just mention 'races' where we do not always
mean pure data races.

Tidy up a few bits:
- Fix typos and grammar, improve wording.
- Remove spurious newlines that are col80 warning artifacts where the
resulting line-break is worse than the disease it's curing.
- Use core kernel coding style to improve readability and reduce
spurious code pattern variations.
- Use better vertical alignment for structure definitions and initialization
sequences.
- Misc other small details.
No change in functionality intended.
