From 1b403ce77dfbf234723a91bc411dfb03a0499d6e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Vernet Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2023 00:40:27 -0500 Subject: bpf: Remove bpf_cpumask_kptr_get() kfunc Now that struct bpf_cpumask is RCU safe, there's no need for this kfunc. Rather than doing the following: private(MASK) static struct bpf_cpumask __kptr *global; int BPF_PROG(prog, s32 cpu, ...) { struct bpf_cpumask *cpumask; bpf_rcu_read_lock(); cpumask = bpf_cpumask_kptr_get(&global); if (!cpumask) { bpf_rcu_read_unlock(); return -1; } bpf_cpumask_setall(cpumask); ... bpf_cpumask_release(cpumask); bpf_rcu_read_unlock(); } Programs can instead simply do (assume same global cpumask): int BPF_PROG(prog, ...) { struct bpf_cpumask *cpumask; bpf_rcu_read_lock(); cpumask = global; if (!cpumask) { bpf_rcu_read_unlock(); return -1; } bpf_cpumask_setall(cpumask); ... bpf_rcu_read_unlock(); } In other words, no extra atomic acquire / release, and less boilerplate code. This patch removes both the kfunc, as well as its selftests and documentation.
