Multiple syzbot warnings have been reported. These warnings are mainly about the lock order between trie->lock and kmalloc()'s internal lock. See report [1] as an example: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 6.10.0-rc7-syzkaller-00003-g4376e966ecb7 #0 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ syz.3.2069/15008 is trying to acquire lock: ffff88801544e6d8 (&n->list_lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: get_partial_node ... but task is already holding lock: ffff88802dcc89f8 (&trie->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: trie_update_elem ... which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&trie->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}: __raw_spin_lock_irqsave _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3a/0x60 trie_delete_elem+0xb0/0x820 ___bpf_prog_run+0x3e51/0xabd0 __bpf_prog_run32+0xc1/0x100 bpf_dispatcher_nop_func ...... bpf_trace_run2+0x231/0x590 __bpf_trace_contention_end+0xca/0x110 trace_contention_end.constprop.0+0xea/0x170 __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x28e/0xcc0 pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath queued_spin_lock_slowpath queued_spin_lock do_raw_spin_lock+0x210/0x2c0 __raw_spin_lock_irqsave _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x42/0x60 __put_partials+0xc3/0x170 qlink_free qlist_free_all+0x4e/0x140 kasan_quarantine_reduce+0x192/0x1e0 __kasan_slab_alloc+0x69/0x90 kasan_slab_alloc slab_post_alloc_hook slab_alloc_node kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof+0x153/0x310 __alloc_skb+0x2b1/0x380 ...... -> #0 (&n->list_lock){-.-.}-{2:2}: check_prev_add check_prevs_add validate_chain __lock_acquire+0x2478/0x3b30 lock_acquire lock_acquire+0x1b1/0x560 __raw_spin_lock_irqsave _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3a/0x60 get_partial_node.part.0+0x20/0x350 get_partial_node get_partial ___slab_alloc+0x65b/0x1870 __slab_alloc.constprop.0+0x56/0xb0 __slab_alloc_node slab_alloc_node __do_kmalloc_node __kmalloc_node_noprof+0x35c/0x440 kmalloc_node_noprof bpf_map_kmalloc_node+0x98/0x4a0 lpm_trie_node_alloc trie_update_elem+0x1ef/0xe00 bpf_map_update_value+0x2c1/0x6c0 map_update_elem+0x623/0x910 __sys_bpf+0x90c/0x49a0 ... other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&trie->lock); lock(&n->list_lock); lock(&trie->lock); lock(&n->list_lock); *** DEADLOCK *** [1]: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=9045c0a3d5a7f1b119f7 A bpf program attached to trace_contention_end() triggers after acquiring &n->list_lock. The program invokes trie_delete_elem(), which then acquires trie->lock. However, it is possible that another process is invoking trie_update_elem(). trie_update_elem() will acquire trie->lock first, then invoke kmalloc_node(). kmalloc_node() may invoke get_partial_node() and try to acquire &n->list_lock (not necessarily the same lock object). Therefore, lockdep warns about the circular locking dependency. Invoking kmalloc() before acquiring trie->lock could fix the warning. However, since BPF programs call be invoked from any context (e.g., through kprobe/tracepoint/fentry), there may still be lock ordering problems for internal locks in kmalloc() or trie->lock itself. To eliminate these potential lock ordering problems with kmalloc()'s internal locks, replacing kmalloc()/kfree()/kfree_rcu() with equivalent BPF memory allocator APIs that can be invoked in any context. The lock ordering problems with trie->lock (e.g., reentrance) will be handled separately. Three aspects of this change require explanation: 1. Intermediate and leaf nodes are allocated from the same allocator. Since the value size of LPM trie is usually small, using a single alocator reduces the memory overhead of the BPF memory allocator. 2. Leaf nodes are allocated before disabling IRQs. This handles cases where leaf_size is large (e.g., > 4KB - 8) and updates require intermediate node allocation. If leaf nodes were allocated in IRQ-disabled region, the free objects in BPF memory allocator would not be refilled timely and the intermediate node allocation may fail. 3. Paired migrate_{disable|enable}() calls for node alloc and free. The BPF memory allocator uses per-CPU struct internally, these paired calls are necessary to guarantee correctness.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
