Hou Tao says: ==================== bpf: Fixes for per-cpu kptr From: Hou Tao <houtao1@huawei.com> Hi, The patchset aims to fix the problems found in the review of per-cpu kptr patch-set [0]. Patch #1 moves pcpu_lock after the invocation of pcpu_chunk_addr_search() and it is a micro-optimization for free_percpu(). The reason includes it in the patch is that the same logic is used in newly-added API pcpu_alloc_size(). Patch #2 introduces pcpu_alloc_size() for dynamic per-cpu area. Patch #2 and #3 use pcpu_alloc_size() to check whether or not unit_size matches with the size of underlying per-cpu area and to select a matching bpf_mem_cache. Patch #4 fixes the freeing of per-cpu kptr when these kptrs are freed by map destruction. The last patch adds test cases for these problems. Please see individual patches for details. And comments are always welcome. Change Log: v3: * rebased on bpf-next * patch 2: update API document to note that pcpu_alloc_size() doesn't support statically allocated per-cpu area. (Dennis) * patch 1 & 2: add Acked-by from Dennis v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20231018113343.2446300-1-houtao@huaweicloud.com/ * add a new patch "don't acquire pcpu_lock for pcpu_chunk_addr_search()" * patch 2: change type of bit_off and end to unsigned long (Andrew) * patch 2: rename the new API as pcpu_alloc_size and follow 80-column convention (Dennis) * patch 5: move the common declaration into bpf.h (Stanislav, Alxei) v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20231007135106.3031284-1-houtao@huaweicloud.com/ [0]: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230827152729.1995219-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231020133202.4043247-1-houtao@huaweicloud.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
