Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 0/4] bpf: enable task local storage for tracing programs

This set enables task local storage for non-BPF_LSM programs.

It is common for tracing BPF program to access per-task data. Currently,
these data are stored in hash tables with pid as the key. In
bcc/libbpftools [1], 9 out of 23 tools use such hash tables. However,
hash table is not ideal for many use case. Task local storage provides
better usability and performance for BPF programs. Please refer to 4/4 for
some performance comparison of task local storage vs. hash table.

Changes v2 => v3:
1. Make the selftest more robust. (Andrii)
2. Small changes with runqslower. (Andrii)
3. Shortern CC list to make it easy for vger.

Changes v1 => v2:
1. Do not allocate task local storage when the task is being freed.
2. Revise the selftest and added a new test for a task being freed.
3. Minor changes in runqslower.

Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 3/4] bpf: runqslower: prefer using local vmlimux to generate vmlinux.h

Update the Makefile to prefer using $(O)/mvlinux, $(KBUILD_OUTPUT)/vmlinux
(for selftests) or ../../../vmlinux. These two files should have latest
definitions for vmlinux.h.

Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 2/4] selftests/bpf: add non-BPF_LSM test for task local storage

Task local storage is enabled for tracing programs. Add two tests for
task local storage without CONFIG_BPF_LSM.

The first test stores a value in sys_enter and read it back in sys_exit.

The second test checks whether the kernel allows allocating task local
storage in exit_creds() (which it should not).

Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 1/4] bpf: enable task local storage for tracing programs

To access per-task data, BPF programs usually creates a hash table with
pid as the key. This is not ideal because:
1. The user need to estimate the proper size of the hash table, which may
be inaccurate;
2. Big hash tables are slow;
3. To clean up the data properly during task terminations, the user need
to write extra logic.

Task local storage overcomes these issues and offers a better option for
these per-task data. Task local storage is only available to BPF_LSM. Now
enable it for tracing programs.

Unlike LSM progreams, tracing programs can be called in IRQ contexts.
Helpers that accesses task local storage are updated to use
raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead of raw_spin_lock_bh().

Tracing programs can attach to functions on the task free path, e.g.
exit_creds(). To avoid allocating task local storage after
bpf_task_storage_free(). bpf_task_storage_get() is updated to not allocate
new storage when the task is not refcounted (task->usage == 0).

Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 4/4] bpf: runqslower: use task local storage

Replace hashtab with task local storage in runqslower. This improves the
performance of these BPF programs. The following table summarizes average
runtime of these programs, in nanoseconds:

task-local hash-prealloc hash-no-prealloc
handle__sched_wakeup 125 340 3124
handle__sched_wakeup_new 2812 1510 2998
handle__sched_switch 151 208 991

Note that, task local storage gives better performance than hashtab for
handle__sched_wakeup and handle__sched_switch. On the other hand, for
handle__sched_wakeup_new, task local storage is slower than hashtab with
prealloc. This is because handle__sched_wakeup_new accesses the data for
the first time, so it has to allocate the data for task local storage.
Once the initial allocation is done, subsequent accesses, as those in
handle__sched_wakeup, are much faster with task local storage. If we
disable hashtab prealloc, task local storage is much faster for all 3
functions.

Thanks for adding better commit descriptions :)

I think checking the usage before adding storage should work for the
task exit path (I could not think of cases where it would break).
Would also be nice to check with Martin and Hao about this.
