Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 07/16] freescale: remove rcu_read_lock() around XDP program invocation
Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2021 16:54:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210615145455.564037-8-toke@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210615145455.564037-1-toke@redhat.com>

The dpaa and dpaa2 drivers have rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs
around XDP program invocations. However, the actual lifetime of the objects
referred by the XDP program invocation is longer, all the way through to
the call to xdp_do_flush(), making the scope of the rcu_read_lock() too
small. This turns out to be harmless because it all happens in a single
NAPI poll cycle (and thus under local_bh_disable()), but it makes the
rcu_read_lock() misleading.

Rather than extend the scope of the rcu_read_lock(), just get rid of it
entirely. With the addition of RCU annotations to the XDP_REDIRECT map
types that take bh execution into account, lockdep even understands this to
be safe, so there's really no reason to keep it around.
