Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v4 1/4] bpf: arena: populate vm_area without allocating memory
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2025 09:43:46 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251212004350.6520-2-puranjay@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251212004350.6520-1-puranjay@kernel.org>

vm_area_map_pages() may allocate memory while inserting pages into bpf
arena's vm_area. In order to make bpf_arena_alloc_pages() kfunc
non-sleepable change bpf arena to populate pages without
allocating memory:
- at arena creation time populate all page table levels except
  the last level
- when new pages need to be inserted call apply_to_page_range() again
  with apply_range_set_cb() which will only set_pte_at() those pages and
  will not allocate memory.
- when freeing pages call apply_to_existing_page_range with
  apply_range_clear_cb() to clear the pte for the page to be removed. This
  doesn't free intermediate page table levels.
