Subject: [PATCH RFC 10/10] KVM: x86: Enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS with opt-outs
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 16:21:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910162343.4092060-11-elver@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910162343.4092060-1-elver@google.com>
Enable Clang context analysis (-Wthread-safety) for x86 KVM.
Because virt/kvm/ objects are built directly into the x86 KVM module,
this also enables checking for common KVM sources.
Temporarily opt out sources that require more invasive annotations:
mmu/mmu.c, mmu/tdp_mmu.c, i8259.c, and xen.c.
No functional change intended.
