htab_lock_bucket uses the following logic to avoid recursion: 1. preempt_disable(); 2. check percpu counter htab->map_locked[hash] for recursion; 2.1. if map_lock[hash] is already taken, return -BUSY; 3. raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); However, if an IRQ hits between 2 and 3, BPF programs attached to the IRQ logic will not able to access the same hash of the hashtab and get -EBUSY. This -EBUSY is not really necessary. Fix it by disabling IRQ before checking map_locked: 1. preempt_disable(); 2. local_irq_save(); 3. check percpu counter htab->map_locked[hash] for recursion; 3.1. if map_lock[hash] is already taken, return -BUSY; 4. raw_spin_lock(). Similarly, use raw_spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in htab_unlock_bucket(). Suggested-by: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Song Liu <song@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v3: 1. Use raw_local_irq_* APIs instead. Changes in v2: 1. Use raw_spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in htab_unlock_bucket().
