Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi says: ==================== Enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections This set allows a BPF program to make a call to a static subprog within a bpf_spin_lock critical section. This problem has been hit in sched-ext and ghOSt [0] as well, and is mostly an annoyance which is worked around by inling the static subprog into the critical section. In case of sched-ext, there are a lot of other helper/kfunc calls that need to be allow listed for the support to be complete, but a separate follow up will deal with that. Unlike static subprogs, global subprogs cannot be allowed yet as the verifier will not explore their body when encountering a call instruction for them. Therefore, we would need an alternative approach (some sort of function summarization to ensure a lock is never taken from a global subprog and all its callees).

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 Restructured Text 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.
