The bpf_seq_printf, bpf_trace_printk and bpf_snprintf helpers share one
per-cpu buffer that they use to store temporary data (arguments to
bprintf). They "get" that buffer with try_get_fmt_tmp_buf and "put" it
by the end of their scope with bpf_bprintf_cleanup.
If one of these helpers gets called within the scope of one of these
helpers, for example: a first bpf program gets called, uses
bpf_trace_printk which calls raw_spin_lock_irqsave which is traced by
another bpf program that calls bpf_snprintf, then the second "get"
fails. Essentially, these helpers are not re-entrant. They would return
-EBUSY and print a warning message once.
This patch triples the number of bprintf buffers to allow three levels
of nesting. This is very similar to what was done for tracepoints in
"9594dc3c7e7 bpf: fix nested bpf tracepoints with per-cpu data"
Fixes: d9c9e4db186a ("bpf: Factorize bpf_trace_printk and bpf_seq_printf")

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.
