Adding to my own question:
I have tried to use __attribute__((no_sanitize("thread"))) and
blacklisting to work around the issue, but without any success.
Details in commit
https://github.com/rgerhards/rsyslog/commit/8e7625a5b21924518739acf17712f028c4c25241
This has now actually become a blocker for me in regard to adoption of
TSAN. Any help would be highly appreciated!
Thanks and happy new year,
Rainer
