Introduce sleepable BPF programs that can request such property for themselves via BPF_F_SLEEPABLE flag at program load time. In such case they will be able to use helpers like bpf_copy_from_user() that might sleep. At present only fentry/fexit/fmod_ret and lsm programs can request to be sleepable and only when they are attached to kernel functions that are known to allow sleeping. The non-sleepable programs are relying on implicit rcu_read_lock() and migrate_disable() to protect life time of programs, maps that they use and per-cpu kernel structures used to pass info between bpf programs and the kernel. The sleepable programs cannot be enclosed into rcu_read_lock(). migrate_disable() maps to preempt_disable() in non-RT kernels, so the progs should not be enclosed in migrate_disable() as well. Therefore rcu_read_lock_trace is used to protect the life time of sleepable progs. There are many networking and tracing program types. In many cases the 'struct bpf_prog *' pointer itself is rcu protected within some other kernel data structure and the kernel code is using rcu_dereference() to load that program pointer and call BPF_PROG_RUN() on it. All these cases are not touched. Instead sleepable bpf programs are allowed with bpf trampoline only. The program pointers are hard-coded into generated assembly of bpf trampoline and synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace() is used to protect the life time of the program. The same trampoline can hold both sleepable and non-sleepable progs. When rcu_read_lock_trace is held it means that some sleepable bpf program is running from bpf trampoline. Those programs can use bpf arrays and preallocated hash/lru maps. These map types are waiting on programs to complete via synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace(); Updates to trampoline now has to do synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace() and synchronize_rcu_tasks() to wait for sleepable progs to finish and for trampoline assembly to finish. This is the first step of introducing sleepable progs. Eventually dynamically allocated hash maps can be allowed and networking program types can become sleepable too.
