The bpf_lsm and bpf_iter do not recur that will cause a deadlock. The situation is similar to the bpf_pid_task_storage_delete_elem() which is called from the syscall map_delete_elem. It does not need deadlock detection. Otherwise, it will cause unnecessary failure when calling the bpf_task_storage_delete() helper. This patch adds bpf_task_storage_delete proto that does not do deadlock detection. It will be used by bpf_lsm and bpf_iter program.

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.
