Subject: [PATCH bpf v3 0/2] bpf: Reject bpf_timer for PREEMPT_RT
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2025 20:57:38 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250910125740.52172-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)

While running './test_progs -t timer' to validate the test case from
"selftests/bpf: Introduce experimental bpf_in_interrupt()"[0] for
PREEMPT_RT, I encountered a kernel warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48

To address this, reject bpf_timer usage in the verifier when
PREEMPT_RT is enabled, and skip the corresponding timer selftests.

Changes:
v2 -> v3:
* Drop skipping test case 'timer_interrupt'.
* Address comments from Alexei:
  * Respin targeting bpf tree.
  * Trim commit log.

v1 -> v2:
* Skip test case 'timer_interrupt'.
