Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 10/15] bpf, arm64: Maintain Tasks RCU trampoline nesting in the BPF trampoline
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:08:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911-b4-rcu-tasks-preempt-qs-v2-10-eaaa61ed2da4@toxicpanda.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911-b4-rcu-tasks-preempt-qs-v2-0-eaaa61ed2da4@toxicpanda.com>

Same scheme as x86: emit "mrs x10, sp_el0; ldr/add|sub/str w11" to bump
current->rcu_tramp_nesting after the callee-saved registers are stored
and to drop it before they are restored, and release it around the call
to the original function, which im->pcref protects and which must not
pin a Tasks RCU grace period.  x10/x11 are scratch at every emission
point; the fmod_ret cbnz target lies after the decrement/increment pair
around the original call, and the ip_after_call nop follows the
re-increment, so the count is balanced on every path.  BUILD_BUG_ON
guards the LDR/STR immediate range for the task_struct offset.
