[PATCH 1/1] rcu/kvfree: Add runtime sleep check for single argument

From: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)
Date: Tue Dec 06 2022 - 07:24:11 EST


A single argument can be invoked only from a sleepable
context. There is already a might_sleep() check to mitigate
such cases. The problem is that it requires a kernel to
be built with a CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP option.

In order to improve an extra runtime_assert_can_sleep()
function is introduced by this patch. It is a run-time
checking. Please note it only covers PREEMPT kernels.
