When huang uses sched_switch tracepoint, the tracepoint does only one thing in the mounted ebpf program, which deletes the fixed elements in sockhash ([0]) It seems that elements in sockhash are rarely actively deleted by users or ebpf program. Therefore, we do not pay much attention to their deletion. Compared with hash maps, sockhash only provides spin_lock_bh protection. This causes it to appear to have self-locking behavior in the interrupt context.

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.
