Task local storage is only available to BPF_LSM. Now > enable it for tracing programs. Also mention here that you change the pointer from being a security blob to a dedicated member in the task struct. I assume this is because you want to use it without CONFIG_BPF_LSM? > Can you also mention the reasons for changing the raw_spin_lock_bh to raw_spin_lock_irqsave in the commit log? > Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@xxxxxx> > --- > include/linux/bpf.h | 7 +++++++ > include/linux/bpf_lsm.h | 22 ---------------------- > include/linux/bpf_types.h | 2 +- > include/linux/sched.h | 5 +++++ > kernel/bpf/Makefile | 3 +-- > kernel/bpf/bpf_local_storage.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++----------- > kernel/bpf/bpf_lsm.c | 4 ---- > kernel/bpf/bpf_task_storage.c | 26 ++++++-------------------- > kernel/fork.c | 5 +++++ > kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c | 4 ++++ > 10 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 60 deletions(-) > [...]
