tsan: Add optional support for distinguishing volatiles
Add support to optionally emit different instrumentation for accesses to volatile variables. While the default TSAN runtime likely will never require this feature, other runtimes for different environments that have subtly different memory models or assumptions may require distinguishing volatiles. One such environment are OS kernels, where volatile is still used in various places, and often declare volatile to be appropriate even in multi-threaded contexts. One such example is the Linux kernel, which implements various synchronization primitives using volatile (READ_ONCE(), WRITE_ONCE()). Here the Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN), is a runtime that uses TSAN instrumentation but otherwise implements a very different approach to race detection from TSAN: https://github.com/google/ktsan/wiki/KCSAN Due to recent changes in requirements by the Linux kernel, KCSAN requires that the compiler supports tsan-distinguish-volatile (among several new requirements): https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200521142047.169334-7-elver@google.com/ gcc/ * params.opt: Define --param=tsan-distinguish-volatile=[0,1]. * sanitizer.def (BUILT_IN_TSAN_VOLATILE_READ1): Define new builtin for volatile instrumentation of reads/writes.

If param tsan-distinguish-volatile is non-zero, and access if volatile, return volatile instrumentation decl. (instrument_expr): Check if access is volatile. gcc/testsuite/ * c-c++-common/tsan/volatile.c: New test.
