[PATCH linux-next] powerpc: disable sanitizer in irq_soft_mask_set

From: Zhouyi Zhou
Date: Sat Aug 20 2022 - 21:00:55 EST


In ppc, compiler based sanitizer will generate instrument instructions
around statement WRITE_ONCE(local_paca->irq_soft_mask, mask):

0xc000000000295cb0 <+0>: addis r2,r12,774
0xc000000000295cb4 <+4>: addi r2,r2,16464
0xc000000000295cb8 <+8>: mflr r0
0xc000000000295cbc <+12>: bl 0xc00000000008bb4c <mcount>
0xc000000000295cc0 <+16>: mflr r0
0xc000000000295cc4 <+20>: std r31,-8(r1)
0xc000000000295cc8 <+24>: addi r3,r13,2354
0xc000000000295ccc <+28>: mr r31,r13
0xc000000000295cd0 <+32>: std r0,16(r1)
0xc000000000295cd4 <+36>: stdu r1,-48(r1)
0xc000000000295cd8 <+40>: bl 0xc000000000609b98 <__asan_store1+8>
0xc000000000295cdc <+44>: nop
0xc000000000295ce0 <+48>: li r9,1
0xc000000000295ce4 <+52>: stb r9,2354(r31)
0xc000000000295ce8 <+56>: addi r1,r1,48
0xc000000000295cec <+60>: ld r0,16(r1)
0xc000000000295cf0 <+64>: ld r31,-8(r1)
0xc000000000295cf4 <+68>: mtlr r0

If there is a context switch before "stb r9,2354(r31)", r31 may
not equal to r13, in such case, irq soft mask will not work.

This patch disable sanitizer in irq_soft_mask_set.

Dear PPC developers

I found this bug when trying to do rcutorture tests in ppc VM of
Open Source Lab of Oregon State University following Paul E. McKenny's guidance.

console.log report following bug:

After 12 days debugging, I finally narrow the problem to irq_soft_mask_set.

I am a beginner, hope I can be of some beneficial to the community ;-)

Thanks
