It's very common with BPF-based uprobe/uretprobe use cases to have a system-wide (not PID specific) probes used. In this case uprobe's trace_uprobe_filter->nr_systemwide counter is bumped at registration time, and actual filtering is short circuited at the time when uprobe/uretprobe is triggered. This is a great optimization, and the only issue with it is that to even get to checking this counter uprobe subsystem is taking read-side trace_uprobe_filter->rwlock. This is actually noticeable in profiles and is just another point of contention when uprobe is triggered on multiple CPUs simultaneously. This patch moves this nr_systemwide check outside of filter list's rwlock scope, as rwlock is meant to protect list modification, while nr_systemwide-based check is speculative and racy already, despite the lock (as discussed in [0]). trace_uprobe_filter_remove() and trace_uprobe_filter_add() already check for filter->nr_systewide explicitly outside of __uprobe_perf_filter, so no modifications are required there. Confirming with BPF selftests's based benchmarks. BEFORE (based on changes in previous patch) =========================================== uprobe-nop : 2.732 ± 0.022M/s uprobe-push : 2.621 ± 0.016M/s uprobe-ret : 1.105 ± 0.007M/s uretprobe-nop : 1.396 ± 0.007M/s uretprobe-push : 1.347 ± 0.008M/s uretprobe-ret : 0.800 ± 0.006M/s AFTER ===== uprobe-nop : 2.878 ± 0.017M/s (+5.5%, total +8.3%) uprobe-push : 2.753 ± 0.013M/s (+5.3%, total +10.2%) uprobe-ret : 1.142 ± 0.010M/s (+3.8%, total +3.8%) uretprobe-nop : 1.444 ± 0.008M/s (+3.5%, total +6.5%) uretprobe-push : 1.410 ± 0.010M/s (+4.8%, total +7.1%) uretprobe-ret : 0.816 ± 0.002M/s (+2.0%, total +3.9%) In the above, first percentage value is based on top of previous patch (lazy uprobe buffer optimization), while the "total" percentage is based on kernel without any of the changes in this patch set. As can be seen, we get about 4% - 10% speed up, in total, with both lazy uprobe buffer and speculative filter check optimizations.

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 reStructuredText 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.
