Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 tip/perf/core 2/2] uprobes: add speculative lockless
 VMA-to-inode-to-uprobe resolution

* Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@...nel.org> [241121 22:59]:
> Given filp_cachep is marked SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU (and FMODE_BACKING
> files, a special case, now goes through RCU-delated freeing), we can
> safely access vma->vm_file->f_inode field locklessly under just
> rcu_read_lock() protection, which enables looking up uprobe from
> uprobes_tree completely locklessly and speculatively without the need to
> acquire mmap_lock for reads. In most cases, anyway, assuming that there
> are no parallel mm and/or VMA modifications. The underlying struct
> file's memory won't go away from under us (even if struct file can be
> reused in the meantime).
> 
> We rely on newly added mmap_lock_speculate_{try_begin,retry}() helpers to
> validate that mm_struct stays intact for entire duration of this
> speculation. If not, we fall back to mmap_lock-protected lookup.
> The speculative logic is written in such a way that it will safely
> handle any garbage values that might be read from vma or file structs.
> 
> Benchmarking results speak for themselves.
