Alexei Starovoitov 2d92ef7da2 Merge branch 'selftests-bpf-introduce-experimental-bpf_in_interrupt'
Leon Hwang says:

====================
selftests/bpf: Introduce experimental bpf_in_interrupt()

Filtering pid_tgid is meanlingless when the current task is preempted by
an interrupt.

To address this, introduce 'bpf_in_interrupt()' helper function, which
allows BPF programs to determine whether they are executing in interrupt
context.

'get_preempt_count()':

* On x86, '*(int *) bpf_this_cpu_ptr(&__preempt_count)'.
* On arm64, 'bpf_get_current_task_btf()->thread_info.preempt.count'.

Then 'bpf_in_interrupt()' will be:

* If !PREEMPT_RT, 'get_preempt_count() & (NMI_MASK | HARDIRQ_MASK
  | SOFTIRQ_MASK)'.
* If PREEMPT_RT, '(get_preempt_count() & (NMI_MASK | HARDIRQ_MASK))
  | (bpf_get_current_task_btf()->softirq_disable_cnt & SOFTIRQ_MASK)'.

'bpf_in_interrupt()' runs well when PREEMPT_RT is enabled. But it's
difficult for me to test it well because I'm not familiar with
PREEMPT_RT.

Changes:
v2 -> v3:
* Address comments from Alexei:
  * Move bpf_in_interrupt() to bpf_experimental.h.
  * Add support for arm64.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250825131502.54269-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev/

v1 -> v2:
* Fix a build error reported by test bot.

README

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.
