For kuprobe and tracepoint bpf programs, kernel calls trace_call_bpf() which calls BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CHECK() to run the program array. Currently, BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CHECK() also calls bpf_cgroup_storage_set() to set percpu cgroup local storage with NULL value. This is due to Commit394e40a297("bpf: extend bpf_prog_array to store pointers to the cgroup storage") which modified __BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY() to call bpf_cgroup_storage_set() and this macro is also used by BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CHECK(). kuprobe and tracepoint programs are not allowed to call bpf_get_local_storage() helper hence does not access percpu cgroup local storage. Let us change BPF_PROG_RUN_ARRAY_CHECK() not to modify percpu cgroup local storage. The issue is observed when I tried to debug [1] where percpu data is overwritten due to preempt_disable -> migration_disable change. This patch does not completely fix the above issue, which will be addressed separately, e.g., multiple cgroup prog runs may preempt each other. But it does fix any potential issue caused by tracing program overwriting percpu cgroup storage: - in a busy system, a tracing program is to run between bpf_cgroup_storage_set() and the cgroup prog run. - a kprobe program is triggered by a helper in cgroup prog before bpf_get_local_storage() is called.

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.
