Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 0/2] Sleepable local storage
Date: Fri, 24 Dec 2021 15:29:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211224152916.1550677-1-kpsingh@kernel.org> (raw)

Local storage is currently unusable in sleepable helpers. One of the
important use cases of local_storage is to attach security (or
performance) contextual information to kernel objects in LSM / tracing
programs to be used later in the life-cyle of the object.

Sometimes this context can only be gathered from sleepable programs
(because it needs accesing __user pointers or helpers like
bpf_ima_inode_hash). Allowing local storage to be used from sleepable
programs allows such context to be managed with the benefits of
local_storage.

# v2 -> v3

* Fixed some RCU issues pointed by Martin
* Added Martin's ack

# v1 -> v2

* Generalize RCU checks (will send a separate patch for updating
  non local storage code where this can be used).
* Add missing RCU lock checks from v1


KP Singh (2):
  bpf: Allow bpf_local_storage to be used by sleepable programs
  bpf/selftests: Update local storage selftest for sleepable programs
