Subject: [PATCH] lib/test_bpf: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 03:33:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230612103341.GA354790@sumitra.com> (raw)

kmap() has been deprecated in favor of the kmap_local_page()
due to high cost, restricted mapping space, the overhead of
a global lock for synchronization, and making the process
sleep in the absence of free slots.

kmap_local_page() is faster than kmap() and offers thread-local
and CPU-local mappings, take pagefaults in a local kmap region
and preserves preemption by saving the mappings of outgoing
tasks and restoring those of the incoming one during a context
switch.

The mapping is kept thread local in the function
“generate_test_data” in test_bpf.c

Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() and use
memcpy_to_page() to avoid open coding kmap_local_page()
+ memcpy() + kunmap_local().

Remove the unused variable “ptr”.
