Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v4 2/7] bpf: consolidate sleepable checks in check_helper_call()
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 13:25:24 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224212535.1165151-3-puranjay@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224212535.1165151-1-puranjay@kernel.org>
check_helper_call() prints the error message for every
env->cur_state->active* element when calling a sleepable helper.
Consolidate all of them into a single print statement.
The check for env->cur_state->active_locks was not part of the removed
print statements and will not be triggered with the consolidated print
as well because it is checked in do_check() before check_helper_call()
is even reached.
