Alexei Starovoitov 30630e44b6 Merge branch 'Enable non-atomic allocations in local storage' 
Joanne Koong says:

====================

From: Joanne Koong <joannelkoong@gmail.com>

Currently, local storage memory can only be allocated atomically
(GFP_ATOMIC). This restriction is too strict for sleepable bpf
programs.

In this patchset, sleepable programs can allocate memory in local
storage using GFP_KERNEL, while non-sleepable programs always default to
GFP_ATOMIC.

v3 <- v2:
* Add extra case to local_storage.c selftest to test associating multiple
elements with the local storage, which triggers a GFP_KERNEL allocation in
local_storage_update().
* Cast gfp_t to __s32 in verifier to fix the sparse warnings

v2 <- v1:
* Allocate the memory before/after the raw_spin_lock_irqsave, depending
on the gfp flags
* Rename mem_flags to gfp_flags
* Reword the comment "*mem_flags* is set by the bpf verifier" to
"*gfp_flags* is a hidden argument provided by the verifier"
* Add a sentence to the commit message about existing local storage
selftests covering both the GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL paths in
bpf_local_storage_update.

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 Restructured Text 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.
