He Ying a1b29ba2f2 powerpc/kasan: Silence KASAN warnings in __get_wchan()
The following KASAN warning was reported in our kernel.

  BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in get_wchan+0x188/0x250
  Read of size 4 at addr d216f958 by task ps/14437

  CPU: 3 PID: 14437 Comm: ps Tainted: G           O      5.10.0 #1

  The buggy address belongs to the page:
  page:98ebcdd2 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:00000000 index:0x2 pfn:0x1216f
  flags: 0x0()

  page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected

  Memory state around the buggy address:

After looking into this issue, I find the buggy address belongs
to the task stack region. It seems KASAN has something wrong.
I look into the code of __get_wchan in x86 architecture and
find the same issue has been resolved by the commit
f7d27c35dd ("x86/mm, kasan: Silence KASAN warnings in get_wchan()").
The solution could be applied to powerpc architecture too.

As Andrey Ryabinin said, get_wchan() is racy by design, it may
access volatile stack of running task, thus it may access
redzone in a stack frame and cause KASAN to warn about this.

Use READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to silence these warnings.

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.
