From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxx> The next patch will introduce cross-cpu llist access and existing irq_work_sync() + drain_mem_cache() + rcu_barrier_tasks_trace() mechanism will not be enough, since irq_work_sync() + drain_mem_cache() on cpu A won't guarantee that llist on cpu A are empty. The free_bulk() on cpu B might add objects back to llist of cpu A. Add 'bool draining' flag. The modified sequence looks like: for_each_cpu: WRITE_ONCE(c->draining, true); // do_call_rcu_ttrace() won't be doing call_rcu() any more irq_work_sync(); // wait for irq_work callback (free_bulk) to finish drain_mem_cache(); // free all objects rcu_barrier_tasks_trace(); // wait for RCU callbacks to execute Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/bpf/memalloc.c | 18 +++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/bpf/memalloc.c b/kernel/bpf/memalloc.c index 0ee566a7719a..2615f296f052 100644 --- a/kernel/bpf/memalloc.c +++ b/kernel/bpf/memalloc.c @@ -98,6 +98,7 @@ struct bpf_mem_cache { int free_cnt; int low_watermark, high_watermark, batch; int percpu_size; + bool draining; /* list of objects to be freed after RCU tasks trace GP */ struct llist_head free_by_rcu_ttrace; @@ -301,6 +302,12 @@ static void do_call_rcu_ttrace(struct bpf_mem_cache *c) * from __free_rcu() and from drain_mem_cache(). */ __llist_add(llnode, &c->waiting_for_gp_ttrace); + + if (unlikely(READ_ONCE(c->draining))) { + __free_rcu(&c->rcu_ttrace); + return; + } + /* Use call_rcu_tasks_trace() to wait for sleepable progs to finish. * If RCU Tasks Trace grace period implies RCU grace period, free * these elements directly, else use call_rcu() to wait for normal @@ -544,15 +551,7 @@ void bpf_mem_alloc_destroy(struct bpf_mem_alloc *ma) rcu_in_progress = 0; for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { c = per_cpu_ptr(ma->cache, cpu); - /* - * refill_work may be unfinished for PREEMPT_RT kernel - * in which irq work is invoked in a per-CPU RT thread. - * It is also possible for kernel with - * arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() being false and irq - * work is invoked in timer interrupt.
