From 9c827cd1fcdf54bb50f874f91af0d5de2aceb035 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marco Elver Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2021 14:56:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kcsan: Print if strict or non-strict during init Show a brief message if KCSAN is strict or non-strict, and if non-strict also say that CONFIG_KCSAN_STRICT=y can be used to see all data races. This is to hint to users of KCSAN who blindly use the default config that their configuration might miss data races of interest.
