[PATCH bpf-next v3 0/2] bpf: Use GFP_KERNEL in bpf_event_entry_gen()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Hou Tao <houtao1@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

The simple patch set aims to replace GFP_ATOMIC by GFP_KERNEL in
bpf_event_entry_gen(). These two patches in the patch set were
preparatory patches in "Fix the release of inner map" patchset [1] and
are not needed for v2, so re-post it to bpf-next tree.

Patch #1 reduces the scope of rcu_read_lock when updating fd map and
patch #2 replaces GFP_ATOMIC by GFP_KERNEL. Please see individual
patches for more details.

Comments are always welcome.

Change Log:
v3:
 * patch #1: fallback to patch #1 in v1. Update comments in
             bpf_fd_htab_map_update_elem() to explain the reason for
	     rcu_read_lock() (Alexei)

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20231211073843.1888058-1-houtao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
 * patch #1: add rcu_read_lock/unlock() for bpf_fd_array_map_update_elem
             as well to make it consistent with
	     bpf_fd_htab_map_update_elem and update commit message
             accordingly (Alexei)
 * patch #1/#2: collects ack tags from Yonghong

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20231208103357.2637299-1-houtao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
