[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.0 42/73] net: add atomic_long_t to net_device_stats fields

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Dec 18 2022 - 11:29:01 EST


From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6c1c5097781f563b70a81683ea6fdac21637573b ]

Long standing KCSAN issues are caused by data-race around
some dev->stats changes.

Most performance critical paths already use per-cpu
variables, or per-queue ones.

It is reasonable (and more correct) to use atomic operations
for the slow paths.

This patch adds an union for each field of net_device_stats,
so that we can convert paths that are not yet protected
by a spinlock or a mutex.

netdev_stats_to_stats64() no longer has an #if BITS_PER_LONG==64

Note that the memcpy() we were using on 64bit arches
had no provision to avoid load-tearing,
while atomic_long_read() is providing the needed protection
at no cost.
