[PATCH v3 bpf-next 2/3] mm/bpf: Add bpf_get_kmem_cache() kfunc

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Oct 02 2024 - 02:55:25 EST


The bpf_get_kmem_cache() is to get a slab cache information from a
virtual address like virt_to_cache(). If the address is a pointer
to a slab object, it'd return a valid kmem_cache pointer, otherwise
NULL is returned.

It doesn't grab a reference count of the kmem_cache so the caller is
responsible to manage the access. The intended use case for now is to
symbolize locks in slab objects from the lock contention tracepoints.
