Hi Martin, This patch series enables lock context analysis for the SCSI core and the= UFS driver. The advantages are as follows: - The compiler (only Clang) verifies whether the lock and unlock calls m= atch what has been declared via __must_hold(), __acquires() or __releases()= . This is useful for catching locking bugs in error paths. - Support for __guarded_by() is enabled. If a member variable is annotat= ed with __guarded_by(lock), the compiler will issue a warning if that mem= ber variable is accessed without holding 'lock'. Additionally, a patch is included that suppresses KCSAN complaints about = SCSI host state changes. More information about lock context analysis is available in the cover le= tter of [PATCH v5 00/36] Compiler-Based Context- and Locking-Analysis (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/)= . Please consider this patch series for the next merge window. Thanks, Bart. Changes compared to v3: - Left out all changes except those for the SCSI core and the UFS driver= . Changes compared to v2: - Added patch "scsi: core: Pass the SCSI host pointer directly". - Corrected several annotations that had missing or extra ampersands (&)= . - Reduced the number of __assume_ctx_lock() statements. Changes compared to v1: - Split patch "Enable lock context analysis" into one patch per driver.
