After revisiting comment 4bfc0bb2c60e, some of the commit message came to my mind:

" ...... it blocks a possibility to implement
    the memcg-based memory accounting for bpf objects, because a circular
    reference dependency will occur. Charged memory pages are pinning the
    corresponding memory cgroup, and if the memory cgroup is pinning
    the attached bpf program, nothing will be ever released."

Considering the bpf_map_kzalloc() is used in bpf_local_storage_map.c and it can
charge the memcg, I wonder if the cgrp_local_storage will have similar refcnt
loop issue here.

If here is the right place to free the cgrp_local_storage() and enough to break
this refcnt loop, it will be useful to add some explanation and its
consideration in the commit message.


I think a similar refcount loop issue can happen here as well. IIUC,
this function will only be run when the css is released after all
references are dropped. So if memcg charging is enabled the cgroup
will never be removed. This one might be trickier to handle though..

How about removing all storage from cgrp->bpf_cgrp_storage in cgroup_destroy_locked()?
