Jiri Olsa reported a bug ([1]) in kernel where cgroup local
storage pointer may be NULL in bpf_get_local_storage() helper.
There are two issues uncovered by this bug:
(1). kprobe or tracepoint prog incorrectly sets cgroup local storage
before prog run,
(2). due to change from preempt_disable to migrate_disable,
preemption is possible and percpu storage might be overwritten
by other tasks.
This issue (1) is fixed in [2]. This patch tried to address issue (2).
The following shows how things can go wrong:
task 1: bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for percpu local storage
preemption happens
task 2: bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for percpu local storage
preemption happens
task 1: run bpf program
task 1 will effectively use the percpu local storage setting by task 2
which will be either NULL or incorrect ones.
Instead of just one common local storage per cpu, this patch fixed
the issue by permitting 8 local storages per cpu and each local
storage is identified by a task_struct pointer. This way, we
allow at most 8 nested preemption between bpf_cgroup_storage_set()
and bpf_cgroup_storage_unset(). The percpu local storage slot
is released (calling bpf_cgroup_storage_unset()) by the same task
after bpf program finished running.
bpf_test_run() is also fixed to use the new bpf_cgroup_storage_set()
interface.
The patch is tested on top of [2] with reproducer in [1].
Without this patch, kernel will emit error in 2-3 minutes.
With this patch, after one hour, still no error.

[1] and [2] are same link, you mean this one, right?
05a68ce5fa51 bpf: Don't do bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for kuprobe/tp programs
Thanks for spotting this! Will fix it and submit v4.
I have troubles to apply this on bpf-next probably because
of dependencies, I'll wait for bpf-next is in sync with bpf
fixes.. or would you have a branch pushed out with this?
I do not have a public branch for this. You can do:
- with latest bpf-next
- cherry-pick 05a68ce5fa51 bpf: Don't do bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for
kuprobe/tp programs
- apply this patch
Then you should be good to go to do a testing. Thanks!
thanks for the fix,
jirka
