[ Upstream commit 14bb1e8c8d4ad5d9d2febb7d19c70a3cf536e1e5 ] Recently, I frequently hit the following test failure: [root@arch-fb-vm1 bpf]# ./test_progs -n 33/1 test_lookup_update:PASS:skel_open 0 nsec [...] test_lookup_update:PASS:sync_rcu 0 nsec test_lookup_update:FAIL:map1_leak inner_map1 leaked! #33/1 btf_map_in_map/lookup_update:FAIL #33 btf_map_in_map:FAIL In the test, after map is closed and then after two rcu grace periods, it is assumed that map_id is not available to user space. But the above assumption cannot be guaranteed. After zero or one or two rcu grace periods in different siturations, the actual freeing-map-work is put into a workqueue. Later on, when the work is dequeued, the map will be actually freed. See bpf_map_put() in kernel/bpf/syscall.c. By using workqueue, there is no ganrantee that map will be actually freed after a couple of rcu grace periods. This patch removed such map leak detection and then the test can pass consistently.

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.
