Linux kernel source tree

bpf_free_inode() is invoked as a RCU callback. Usually RCU callbacks are invoked within softirq context. By setting rcutree.use_softirq=0 boot option the RCU callbacks will be invoked in a per-CPU kthread with bottom halves disabled which implies a RCU read section. On PREEMPT_RT the context remains fully preemptible. The RCU read section however does not allow schedule() invocation. The latter happens in mutex_lock() performed by bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog() originated from bpf_link_put(). It was pointed out that the bpf_link_put() invocation should not be delayed if originated from close(). It was also pointed out that other invocations from within a syscall should also avoid the workqueue. Everyone else should use workqueue by default to remain safe in the future (while auditing the code, every caller was preemptible except for the RCU case). Let bpf_link_put() use the worker unconditionally. Add bpf_link_put_direct() which will directly free the resources and is used by close() and from within __sys_bpf().

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.
