Require that iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot. This invariant is important to avoid skipping or repeating sockets during iteration when combined with the next few patches. Before, there were two cases where a call to bpf_iter_udp_batch may only capture part of a bucket: 1. When bpf_iter_udp_realloc_batch() returns -ENOMEM [1]. 2. When more sockets are added to the bucket while calling bpf_iter_udp_realloc_batch(), making the updated batch size insufficient [2]. In cases where the batch size only covers part of a bucket, it is possible to forget which sockets were already visited, especially if we have to process a bucket in more than two batches. This forces us to choose between repeating or skipping sockets, so don't allow this: 1. Stop iteration and propagate -ENOMEM up to userspace if reallocation fails instead of continuing with a partial batch. 2. Try bpf_iter_udp_realloc_batch() with GFP_USER just as before, but if we still aren't able to capture the full bucket, call bpf_iter_udp_realloc_batch() again while holding the bucket lock to guarantee the bucket does not change. On the second attempt use GFP_NOWAIT since we hold onto the spin lock. Introduce the udp_portaddr_for_each_entry_from macro and use it instead of udp_portaddr_for_each_entry to make it possible to continue iteration from an arbitrary socket. This is required for this patch in the GFP_NOWAIT case to allow us to fill the rest of a batch starting from the middle of a bucket and the later patch which skips sockets that were already seen. Testing all scenarios directly is a bit difficult, but I did some manual testing to exercise the code paths where GFP_NOWAIT is used and where ERR_PTR(err) is returned. I used the realloc test case included later in this series to trigger a scenario where a realloc happens inside bpf_iter_udp_batch and made a small code tweak to force the first realloc attempt to allocate a too-small batch, thus requiring another attempt with GFP_NOWAIT. Some printks showed both reallocs with the tests passing: Apr 25 23:16:24 crow kernel: go again GFP_USER Apr 25 23:16:24 crow kernel: go again GFP_NOWAIT With this setup, I also forced each of the bpf_iter_udp_realloc_batch calls to return -ENOMEM to ensure that iteration ends and that the read() in userspace fails.

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 reStructuredText 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.
