[PATCH bpf v3 2/3] tcp: Skip cond_resched() in inet_csk_listen_stop() under BPF context
From: Jiayuan Chen
Date: Thu Sep 10 2026 - 07:32:46 EST
bpf_sock_destroy() runs from the tcp iterator, under rcu_read_lock(). If
the sock is a listener that still has children in its accept queue,
tcp_abort() ends up in inet_csk_listen_stop() and the cond_resched()
there trips the debug check:

The commit that added the kfunc already guards lock_sock() in tcp_abort()
and udp_abort() with has_current_bpf_ctx(), but missed the listener path.
Do the same for the cond_resched(). The loop runs inside the iterator's
rcu_read_lock(), it must not reschedule or report a quiescent state there.

A reviewer worried that skipping cond_resched() lets a big accept queue
run without a reschedule point under BPF. That can't be helped, the
iterator runs the prog under rcu_read_lock() and rescheduling there is
not an option. The loop is bounded by the accept queue.
The iterator taking lock_sock() on a not yet accepted child while the
listener is closed concurrently is a pre-existing issue with its own
report, handled separately:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260807095707.224300-1-zirajs7@xxxxxxxxx/
Kuniyuki suggested to just remove the cond_resched(), since after commit
7dadeaa6e851 ("sched: Further restrict the preemption modes") x86 and
friends only have full and lazy preemption left. But VOLUNTARY is still
there on arm, mips, sparc and others, NONE on alpha, hexagon and m68k,
and this fix goes to stable where x86 has them too. close() on a big
listener still relies on this cond_resched() there, so keep it and only
skip it under BPF. It may be removed in the future once those modes are
gone.
