bpf: Fix syscall's stackmap lookup potential deadlock
The map_lookup_elem used to not acquiring spinlock in order to optimize the reader. It was true until commit 557c0c6e ("bpf: convert stackmap to pre-allocation") The syscall's map_lookup_elem(stackmap) calls bpf_stackmap_copy(). bpf_stackmap_copy() may find the elem no longer needed after the copy is done. If that is the case, pcpu_freelist_push() saves this elem for reuse later. This push requires a spinlock. If a tracing bpf_prog got run in the middle of the syscall's map_lookup_elem(stackmap) and this tracing bpf_prog is calling bpf_get_stackid(stackmap) which also requires the same pcpu_freelist's spinlock, it may end up with a dead lock situation as reported by Eric Dumazet in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1030266/ The situation is the same as the syscall's map_update_elem() which needs to acquire the pcpu_freelist's spinlock and could race with tracing bpf_prog. Hence, this patch fixes it by protecting bpf_stackmap_copy() with this_cpu_inc(bpf_prog_active) to prevent tracing bpf_prog from running. A later syscall's map_lookup_elem commit f1a2e44a ("bpf: add queue and stack maps") also acquires a spinlock and races with tracing bpf_prog similarly. Hence, this patch is forward looking and protects the majority of the map lookups. bpf_map_offload_lookup_elem() is the exception since it is for network bpf_prog only (i.e. never called by tracing bpf_prog).
