Hi Song,

Thanks for taking a look.

Out of curiosity, is there a reason to avoid nesting here? The nested
loop avoids the "cpu == orig_cpu" unnecessary check every iteration.

As suggested, it's possible to use cpumask_next_wrap() like below -

diff --git a/kernel/bpf/percpu_freelist.c b/kernel/bpf/percpu_freelist.c
index 00b874c8e889..19e8eab70c40 100644

                }
-               cpu = cpumask_next(cpu, cpu_possible_mask);
-               if (cpu >= nr_cpu_ids)
-                       cpu = 0;
+               cpu = cpumask_next_wrap(cpu, cpu_possible_mask, orig_cpu, false);

                /* cannot lock any per cpu lock, try extralist */
                if (cpu == orig_cpu &&


I can send an updated patch if this is preferred.

Thanks,
Punit
