From 7ef3771205302a71a8bb4a2286ef98e5cade5d1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Teng Qin Date: Sat, 28 Apr 2018 23:39:29 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] bpf: Allow bpf_current_task_under_cgroup in interrupt Currently, the bpf_current_task_under_cgroup helper has a check where if the BPF program is running in_interrupt(), it will return -EINVAL. This prevents the helper to be used in many useful scenarios, particularly BPF programs attached to Perf Events. This commit removes the check. Tested a few NMI (Perf Event) and some softirq context, the helper returns the correct result.
