bpf: Introduce BPF_F_CPU and BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flags for percpu maps
This patch set introduces the BPF_F_CPU and BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flags for
percpu maps, as the requirement of BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flag for percpu_array
maps was discussed in the thread of
"[PATCH bpf-next v3 0/4] bpf: Introduce global percpu data"[1].
The goal of BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flag is to reduce data caching overhead in light
skeletons by allowing a single value to be reused to update values across all
CPUs. This avoids the M:N problem where M cached values are used to update a
map on N CPUs kernel.
The BPF_F_CPU flag is accompanied by *flags*-embedded cpu info, which
specifies the target CPU for the operation:
* For lookup operations: the flag field alongside cpu info enable querying
a value on the specified CPU.
* For update operations: the flag field alongside cpu info enable
updating value for specified CPU.

Changes:
v12 -> v13:
* No changes, rebased on latest tree.
v11 -> v12:
* Dropped the v11 changes.
* Stabilized the lru_percpu_hash map test by keeping an extra spare entry,
which can be used temporarily during updates to avoid unintended LRU
evictions.
v10 -> v11:
* Support the combination of BPF_EXIST and BPF_F_CPU/BPF_F_ALL_CPUS for
update operations.
* Fix unstable lru_percpu_hash map test using the combination of
BPF_EXIST and BPF_F_CPU/BPF_F_ALL_CPUS to avoid LRU eviction
(reported by Alexei).
v9 -> v10:
* Add tests to verify array and hash maps do not support BPF_F_CPU and
BPF_F_ALL_CPUS flags.
* Address comment from Andrii:
* Copy map value using copy_map_value_long for percpu_cgroup_storage
maps in a separate patch.
v8 -> v9:
* Change value type from u64 to u32 in selftests.
* Address comments from Andrii:
* Keep value_size unaligned and update everywhere for consistency when
cpu flags are specified.
* Update value by getting pointer for percpu hash and percpu
cgroup_storage maps.
v7 -> v8:
* Address comments from Andrii:
* Check BPF_F_LOCK when update percpu_array, percpu_hash and
lru_percpu_hash maps.
* Refactor flags check in __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch().
* Keep value_size unaligned and copy value using copy_map_value() in
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch() when BPF_F_CPU is specified.
* Update warn message in libbpf's validate_map_op().
* Update comment of libbpf's bpf_map__lookup_elem().
v6 -> v7:
* Get correct value size for percpu_hash and lru_percpu_hash in
update_batch API.
* Set 'count' as 'max_entries' in test cases for lookup_batch API.
* Address comment from Alexei:
* Move cpu flags check into bpf_map_check_op_flags().
v5 -> v6:
* Move bpf_map_check_op_flags() from 'bpf.h' to 'syscall.c'.
* Address comments from Alexei:
* Drop the refactoring code of data copying logic for percpu maps.
* Drop bpf_map_check_op_flags() wrappers.
v4 -> v5:
* Address comments from Andrii:
* Refactor data copying logic for all percpu maps.
* Drop this_cpu_ptr() micro-optimization.
* Drop cpu check in libbpf's validate_map_op().
* Enhance bpf_map_check_op_flags() using *allowed flags* instead of
'extra_flags_mask'.
v3 -> v4:
* Address comments from Andrii:
* Remove unnecessary map_type check in bpf_map_value_size().
* Reduce code churn.
* Remove unnecessary do_delete check in
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch().
* Introduce bpf_percpu_copy_to_user() and bpf_percpu_copy_from_user().
* Rename check_map_flags() to bpf_map_check_op_flags() with
extra_flags_mask.
* Add human-readable pr_warn() explanations in validate_map_op().
* Use flags in bpf_map__delete_elem() and
bpf_map__lookup_and_delete_elem().
* Drop "for alignment reasons".
v3 link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250821160817.70285-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev/
v2 -> v3:
* Address comments from Alexei:
* Use BPF_F_ALL_CPUS instead of BPF_ALL_CPUS magic.
* Introduce these two cpu flags for all percpu maps.
* Address comments from Jiri:
* Reduce some unnecessary u32 cast.
* Refactor more generic map flags check function.
* A code style issue.
v2 link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250805163017.17015-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev/
v1 -> v2:
* Address comments from Andrii:
* Embed cpu info as high 32 bits of *flags* totally.
* Use ERANGE instead of E2BIG.
* Few format issues.
