From 5a34f9dabd9aa567e2d37e1aa27a67f80acfaa1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2023 17:32:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpf: bpf_iter_task_next: use __next_thread() rather than next_thread() Lockless use of next_thread() should be avoided, kernel/bpf/task_iter.c is the last user and the usage is wrong. bpf_iter_task_next() can loop forever, "kit->pos == kit->task" can never happen if kit->pos execs. Change this code to use __next_thread(). With or without this change the usage of kit->pos/task and next_task() doesn't look nice, see the next patch.
