In the core runtime, we must minimize any calls to external library functions to avoid any kind of recursion. This can happen even though instrumentation is disabled for called functions, but tracing is enabled. Most recently, prandom_u32() added a tracepoint, which can cause problems for KCSAN even if the rcuidle variant is used. For example: kcsan -> prandom_u32() -> trace_prandom_u32_rcuidle -> srcu_read_lock_notrace -> __srcu_read_lock -> kcsan ... While we could disable KCSAN in kcsan_setup_watchpoint(), this does not solve other unexpected behaviour we may get due recursing into functions that may not be tolerant to such recursion: __srcu_read_lock -> kcsan -> ... -> __srcu_read_lock Therefore, switch to using prandom_u32_state(), which is uninstrumented, and does not have a tracepoint.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
